Hah! I'm 11%.
27% here :D But this series is a quick read for me. The rest won't go so fast, I'm sure.How ya liking LOTU so far? That one is about Maddox, right?
Nope, Maddox was the 1st one, this is the 2nd. Lucien & Anya. They're at the "I'm going to Kill You" stage in the park. Liking it muchly! 18%
Oh yah, that's right. I love that series. That is one of my fav's actually. Anya is a RIOT!30%
24%. You must be going like the clappers to be 30% 15 min ago!
LOL For some reason I always fly through this series (last book). No skimming, promise. :)
it's making me crave something sweet ... Jane's (the main) best friend owns a bakery and makes all these delish sounding sweets.... breaking to grab some ice cream. :D
I love ice cream....what flavour?
and one of my cats, Dexter, has his beady little eyes squarely focused on my bowl. No doubt he'll be nudging for a taste any minute. LOL
lol. I love ice cream too much to share it...Cookies & Cream...I'm more an English Toffee/Caramel type of girl.
But it's all good!!
yum, that sounds good too. this is all I got and it hit the spot. :)
Finally, at 32%.
insouciance??? in·sou·ci·ance/inˈso͞osēəns/
Noun: Casual lack of concern; indifference.
Good to know
lol you both are funny!! Keep up the good reading :)
Yep. Good for scrabble. Not so much for conversation. roflmao.
Hi Jess *waves*
LOL No wonder I suck at scrabble! :DHiYa, Jess!
I think the ice cream slowed me down, I'm @ 47%. Either that or you've hit some "good spots" with Lucien & Anya. ;)
Damn, now she's describing chinese food and my stomach's growling. I knew I should've made a decision and had a "real" dinner instead of snacks!
Jess wrote: ":) Morning!"LOL! When I saw that, Jess, first thing I did was glance at the clock like, "Damn, have I been reading this all night??" :) Nope, still Sun night in Oki. hehe
10.30pm Sunday night here in Sydney.
You can always go & eat and let me catch up *hint, hint*
LOL! No chinese delivery available here. :( Hmmmm, lemme get to a good stopping point and I'll take another break to find something a bit more filling besides cheese, pickles and ice cream. LOL! Sounds like I'm pregnant! Just realized that. NO, I'm not, thank you. Just coincidence. :)
I'm a cheese & pickeles OR ice cream, kinda girl. Not both together.

lol, still Sun morning here :)
62% and off to find a better dinner @ 10:10pm. I'm like a little kid left a home w/out mom & dad around. No, actually I'm a spoiled wife without her (could be a professional) chef hubby around to cook me something good to eat. LOL!As CA's mighty gov'ner, Arnie, said, "I'll Be Back!"
And PS: WTF!? My upstairs neighbor is vacuuming! HELLO! People might be sleeping down here!
LOL. Luckily you're not. That's what I like about having a house. No weird neighbour noises.Take your time!
This place has the absolute thinnest walls/ceilings/floors of any place we've ever lived. It's unreal. Since they live on the top floor, they have NO idea what their children sound like bouncing their damn ball in the house EVERY day, vacuuming at 10pm, etc. Augh!Oh well. C'est La Vie, for the next 2.5 yrs anyway. :)
Sandra wrote: "I'm a cheese & pickeles OR ice cream, kinda girl. Not both together."eeewww, me either. LOL I had the cheese and pickles for my sorry excuse for dinner, then later, ice cream b/c "the book made me do it". <-- too bad my a$$ doesn't care WHO made me eat it, it just says thank you and packs 'um on. LMAO!! <--- oh I wish. Wouldn't that be great if you really could laugh your a$$ off? I mean, not ALL of it, but just the parts you'd gladly wave good-riddance to?
Ok, enough rambling. Done with my "way too late to be eating anything else" dinner of toaster waffles. (told ya - kid at ♡!) And now it's time to get back to Jane and her struggling magic dilemma.
How's it goin' over in Luscious Lucien Land?
Ok, had to (OCD-itis made me) update the RSVP's for Sept's BOM and delete my junk mail (no, thanks, but I don't need any Prilosec ... although maybe after my f'd up "dinner" I might recant later). LOL!!K, seriously, back to Jane .... NOW .....
Paris has just been snaffled by Bait and Reyes is in Rome, cutting himself, under the table. Lucien & Anya are still on again/off again. You're right, she's a RIOT! Wouldn't it be great to flash wherever you wanted to go!!! Better than Star Trek & beaming.
Ah, poor Reyes. Loved his book too. Paris' story (well, some of it anyway - I want him to have a FULL book) was good, I can't remember which book though.HELL YEAH! That would be fan-f*ing-tastic! :D Are they chasing each other?
Almost always. They just had the sword fight and destroyed all the furnishings in the house in Greece.
LOL! Love that book! I'm going to have to re-read some of those - my favs.
Ooooh, just had the Curse Talk!!
Anya's cursed. If she's 'penetrated' she's tied to the bloke forever, losing her free will. Lovely stepmother to have.
Ok, 80% in and everything (for Jane - my main) is going to hell in a handbasket. This is supposed to be the last book of the series. Shouldn't things be getting better, not worse???
Sandra wrote: "Anya's cursed. If she's 'penetrated' she's tied to the bloke forever, losing her free will. Lovely stepmother to have."Oh yeah, right. Man, I have the WORST memory.
and on my front - things are slowly, but surely heading back in the "right" direction. Phew - was starting to wonder there for a min.
Are you sure?, maybe there's a spinoff series in the works.
Doubt it, this one came out 2+ yrs ago. Still seems to be heading towards a happy ending, but I'll let ya know.
