I feel sorry for you the most, having to put up with him :S

[Amanda]

Ha there's a small gap between Todd and I that's aroung 2 1/2 years and I ran into lots of age related issues like with going out too. Lol but he talked me into drinking for the first time when I turned 21 lol( he had a few years more experience than me at that point).

[[deleted user]]

Heh..when my dad was fighting the Battle of the Bulge in WWII, my mom was being born. Age is just a number as they say ;)

[Jason]

Two fake ids coming up, lol.

[Dawn]

Just finished A Game of Thrones, which was even better the second time through. Now I'm going to read Fool Moon and maybe The Light Fantastic as well, to switch it up a little, before continuing on to A Clash of Kings.

I enjoyed Game of Thrones, but am not a big Harry Dresden fan. I've read through #3. Everyone says it gets better after that.

I've been futsing around trying to decide what to read next. Settled on Burndive. It's good so far.

[Dawn]

I liked #1, I'm hoping #2 will be just as good.

Excellent :) What are your postage prices to Australia? ;)

[Maggie]

tequila for everyone! Yay!
Unless you are underaged, or driving...or pregnant...or carrying a fake ID...dang

takes tequila away (quietly hands off bottles to Jason and Ala)

[MrsJoseph *grouchy*, *good karma*]

I finished Midnight Riot last night. Still working on Divided Allegiance and several other books

Sorry, Maggie I don't drink. I just see no reason ever to drink.

[Scott]

I just finished Death Mask and will start Mockingjay later today.

[mark]

i am reading Black Sun Rising: The Coldfire Trilogy #1 and The Club Dumas. so far, the first is pretty awesome and the second is intriguing.

[Jason]

Mmmm...Tequila...

Sorry, Laura, Maggie took away the fake ids.

[whimsicalmeerkat]

Why do Ala & Jason get the tequila?!

[Jason]

Here, you can have some too, Denae!

[[deleted user]]

Because we're special.

[whimsicalmeerkat]

Excellent! It will help make this packing thing less unbearable. Not sure about easier. Should probably avoid trying to pack anything fragile, huh?

[whimsicalmeerkat]

Ala wrote: "Because we're special."

What about Grant?

[[deleted user]]

"we" covers it/him/me/us.

[whimsicalmeerkat]

uh huh...I think you're holding out on him

[Maggie]

nonono, he goes off with the gnomes, and then when he is in jail he catches up on the reading

[[deleted user]]

They don't let you have books immediately when you're arrested. Bastards.

On a side note does anyone know if all of the SFBC's books are smaller in stature than a typical hardcover or is it just their exclusive books that are of a smaller size?

[Jason]

Grant, I'm not sure about the specifics, but when Canada had it's SFBC club, their books were usually smaller in stature than typical hardcover. They print it themselves, I believe. Occasionally, however, they'll send out the actual hardcover book from the real publisher. Usually with new releases or books that won't always be in their catalogue. I could never tell which was what when ordering from their catalogue, though.

[[deleted user]]

Thanks Jason and Tracey. I suppose I'll stick to ordering books that are exclusive to them

[Laura]

Maggie, with this tequila business, considering the age limit in Australia is 18, do I abide by that or do I have to suffer like everyone else and wait till 21 because that would not be nice. I'm 18 next August and I can just smell the tequila coming from Ala's breath.

[[deleted user]]

Mmm...tasty

At work, I'm reading (on my iPod) my very first Star Wars novel: [book:Deceived (Star Wars: The Old Republic, #2)|8015..."

You'll have to go back and get the original Timothy Zahn Heir to the Empire set. They are really good.

[Jason]

Thanks, Jea! Those are on the list! :)

[Maggie]

i only ended up giving a bottle to Jason and to Ala. See if they have any left! lololol

[[deleted user]]

I read...a bunch of books :D I plan on reading...a bunch more books :) Moon Over Soho should be coming in soon. Hoping it's a bit more exciting than Midnight Riot.

That's just started a fight to the death

Zahn is the one who introduces us to Mara Jade.

[Jason]

I think I have a few fingers of the tequila left. You can have it, Laura. I'm too hungover to even look at it. LOL

[[deleted user]]

But more alcohol is the best cure for a hangover

[whimsicalmeerkat]

Mmm...alcohol...

[Laura]

Ala wrote: "But more alcohol is the best cure for a hangover"

I like that. Alcohol: One of the few things where the cause of the consequences are also the cure.

And Jason, I'll have to check with Maggie before I get any tequila :(

[C.M.]

I'm having a truth is stranger than fiction reading moment. You may have heard about Oscar, the cat in a nursing home who knows when people are going to die and stays with them until they do.

The book is called "Making the Rounds with Oscar," written by an originally sceptical doctor at the nursing home (who doesn't even like cats). He eventually becomes a believer. Nice writing, great story. If you love cats, you'll be nuts about Oscar.

I just started reading Sorceress of Darshiva - for some reason I had the urge to read the Malloreon. This is book 4 and once finish 5 I'm trying to decide between Dresdon #3, Iron Kissed, Dragon Mage, or the Redemption of Althalus. Or Moon over Soho or Daemons are Forever, or Monster Hunter #2.

:-D

[MrsJoseph *grouchy*, *good karma*]

:-) What? Suggestions? Who? LOL!

[Laurel]

Ah, you HAVE to read some Mercy, and some Dresden. Then some more Mercy, and even more Dresden!!!

[[deleted user]]

Just started The Name of the Wind - Loving it so far. :-)

It was a recommendation from the members on here.

[Jason]

That's a good one, M. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

So many people just loved that one M, and I just didn't see it...but I decided to re-read it since it is the BotM on another site...hopefully I will like it better this time!

[MrsJoseph *grouchy*, *good karma*]

I'm almost finish with book 4 of the Malloreon and then it;s on to book 5!

I have a review to write and then it's on to The Redemption of Althulus...and then Iron Kissed...I might throw some Dresden, too.

I also need to finish Paks and a few other books still lingering in my currently reading list.

[Robert]

Just finished Kristin Cashore's FIRE, which is a YA fantasy and which was very good indeed.

[whimsicalmeerkat]

I just finished The Eyre Affair

I agree. Have you read her other novel "Graceling"? I found that one to be even better.

[Robert]

I have. I thought both were excellent but I preferred FIRE by a slight margin. I am looking forward to BITTERBLUE.

After her first two novels, Cashore goes on a fairly short list of authors whose work I will now buy when it comes out, whatever it is :)

[Kevin]

I finished this week, Royal Assassin, Wise Man's Fear, with just finishing Assassin's Quest a few minutes ago. now picking up Golden Fool to read, but only have read the summary on Wikipedia and parts of the first book.
