Nici (queennici102) | 697 comments ohh i am divided about this one! I own Pleasure Unbound so i should read it, get it off my phyical tbr, but i also read the first Georgia kincaid novel not that long ago and so i want to go get the second book for the library. ohh what to do?


message 456: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments LOL, I'm not gonna help you Nici, cause I haven't decided yet what I'm reading either. Just read Blood Promise first!


message 457: by Nici (new)

Nici (queennici102) | 697 comments i am almost done with it, its been a challenge for me because i am listening to it. Even now, as i type this i am listening lol.


message 458: by Amanda A (new)

Amanda A | 812 comments I will be reading Personal Demon (Women of the Otherworld, #8) by Kelley Armstrong


message 459: by Nici (new)

Nici (queennici102) | 697 comments I love Kelly Armstrong: )


♡ Sassy ~ Amy ♡ | 494 comments ok... my demon book is: Devoured by Darkness (Guardians of Eternity, #7) by Alexandra Ivy It is the last book in this series that I have to read. Come to find out i had to reread 2 that I read out of order. Just because... It did flow better, but was not totally necessary.


♡ Sassy ~ Amy ♡ | 494 comments You knooowww??? We are winning. We have the most stamps! Yay us!!!


♡ Sassy ~ Amy ♡ | 494 comments Nici wrote: "I love Kelly Armstrong: )"

I have all of her series, but have not read a single one. I read all her YA books, and they were great! Is this series good too? I think I'm afraid to be disappointed.


message 463: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments I read the first book in that series and liked it but I have tried twice to read the second one and have lost interest half way through. I have 8 or 9 of them too. I keep thinking I should try the 3rd one and see how I go but another series always gets in the way. I will go back to them at some point, I've heard lots of good things about Kelley Armstrong so I'm not quite ready to give up yet :)


message 464: by Nici (new)

Nici (queennici102) | 697 comments Its an amazing series, one of my favorites. Also, I would recommend starting on the first one


message 465: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments I did have a look at the stamps today but you have to remember that placement counts more than quantity! Mr. Randomiser has been kind to a few of us if you look at the boards. I'm glad to see us doing so well, hopefully we can keep it up! We almost have the next stamp... just 2 to go! :)


message 466: by Nici (new)

Nici (queennici102) | 697 comments i finished Blood Promise today! I really enjoyed it and am very excited to read the next one. ★★★★


message 467: by Nici (new)

Nici (queennici102) | 697 comments for the demon shelf i will be reading Heart of Darkness


message 468: by Crystal S (new)

Crystal S (crystalann) | 487 comments I'll be reading City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments, #1) by Cassandra Clare . It's a long one, so I'd better get started!


message 469: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments OK, I think everyone is caught up on the list. Please check to make sure I got everyone.

Nici, I think you should say why you liked Blood Promise, just to even it out to 2 sentences. LOL.


message 470: by Nici (new)

Nici (queennici102) | 697 comments lol ok ok. i liked that Rose was more independent of lissa, But also kept us aware of what was going on back in Montana. I also liked the twist of adding Avery into the story.


message 471: by Nici (new)

Nici (queennici102) | 697 comments Shelleyrae, are you still out there?

There are people on the other teams who aren't reading as fast as us... I have a question specifically for you below though.

OK... This is COMPLETELY off topic, but... I bought a "lot" of Lip Smackers. Maybe 300 or so. Most that I sold were to people in the UK. 50 or more of them. Are lip smackers something big there?


message 473: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments Thanks Nici :D

Shelleyrae is about 1/3 the way through Last Sacrifice (610 pgs) as at 13 hours ago. Its Sunday lunchtime here & as Shelleyrae has 4 kids I'd say they are keeping her busy right about now. LOL.

Amy, what are "lip smackers"?

It's flavored lip gloss. You can get cocacola, skittles, starburst, coconut cream pie, yoplait yogurt flavors and the basic watermellon to strawberry & vanilla. I was just curious, I have never had anyone not living here that I could ask.


♡ Sassy ~ Amy ♡ | 494 comments Sandra wrote: Amy, what are "lip smackers"?

If you message me your address, I will send you a pack, so you can see.

(No, I'm not trying to sell anything here...I swear...I just thought it was funny how they are all going to the UK & Brazil)



message 476: by Crystal S (new)

Crystal S (crystalann) | 487 comments Oooh. Lip Smackers. Those were a big deal when I was a kid (late 80's, early 90's). I had a Dr Pepper flavored one once. I didn't realize they were still around.


message 477: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (last edited Apr 02, 2011 08:00PM) (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments OK, well flavoured lip gloss, especially with UV is huge in Aus. I thought it might be that but we don't call them lip smackers. Generic names here are lip gloss or lip balm - mine are strawberry at the moment. LOL


message 478: by Crystal S (new)

Crystal S (crystalann) | 487 comments Lip Smackers is a brand name Sandra. I call flavored lip gloss just that too. :-)


message 479: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments And you call Shelleyrae's name and she's posted that she's finished Last Sacrifice. Yay!


message 480: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments I'm on my way out to lunch so I'll catch up when I get back. :)


message 481: by Shelleyrae (last edited Apr 03, 2011 12:59AM) (new)

Shelleyrae at Book'd Out | 346 comments Hi All
Yeah sorry Sundays are crazy here - grocery shopping, lunch making , laundry and four kids to keep entertained. I'm squeezing in 10 mins as I wait for dinner to finish cooking, and two of the three youngest are sharing a bath.
I finished Last Sacrifice at 4am this morning - I really shouldn't start reading at midnight! I gave it 4 stars - I thought it was a good ending - tied things up pretty well but wasn't as neat as I expected which I actually thought was a good thing. Glad to be able to cross off another series though!

For the Demon shelf I will read Biting the Bullet Biting the Bullet (Jaz Parks, #3) by Jennifer Rardin

Oh and Sassy my girls have Lip Smackers :)


message 482: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments Yay Shelleyrae!!

That gives us our 5th Stamp for YA Fantasy!!!!!!!!!!


message 483: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments It might be an English thing but not up here. Flavoured lip balm is popular anywhere though and we don't get they flavours here so maybe that's why? I'm using mango the now :)


message 484: by CyberAlmu (new)

CyberAlmu | 302 comments I'm using toffee flavoured atm and it's yummy!


message 485: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments I love toffee CA, how lucky are you!


message 486: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments For the Demon shelf I decided on Magic Burns (Kate Daniels, #2) by Ilona Andrews Just about to start it.


message 487: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments Hope you enjoy it, Sandra.

I didn't get much reading done yesterday, Mother's day is always busy but I had a great day. Hope everyone had a good Sunday! I will try and get my book finished today :)


message 488: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments Wow, happy Mother's Day Michelle, ours is in May.

And I'm loving Magic Burns, about 75% done, should finish it tonight.

message 499: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments Magic Burns (Kate Daniels, #2) by Ilona Andrews
Demons Shelf - Magic Burns 4/4/11 ★★★★

Book #2 of the Kate Daniels series sees Kate facing off against Celtic Gods and their Minions. All whilst looking after a naive 13 yr old girl, Julie, whose mother is killed in the cross fire.

Morrigan, the Celtic Goddess and her Hound, Bran vs Morfran and his reeves, sea demons, vie to get their hands on the Caludron of Rebirth.

The Pack is there to assist and Curran especially is interested in keeping Kate safe but doesn't display overt partiality. He doesn't want to frighten her off.

Looking forward to the next one.
