Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments Fran, Riding Wild or Personal Assets please. (yep, I'm ready for another Emma Holly book! and i think i might have an Opal Carew that is due back from a friend that you haven't read yet.)

Fran | 12284 comments Jim, I was hoping you were going to go for the Emma Holly! If you start reading it at Christmas dinner I want the story posted - your Thanksgiving one was priceless!


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments Fran, I lent Six to one of the people I used to work for. After reading half of it she had to give it back before her husband found it. She dropped it off stuffed inside of a People magazine. I think i'd be more embarrassed to get People magazine delivered to my house than to be caught reading smut.

Her husband probably would have enjoyed reading it with her! My husband randomnly picked up a book I was reading one day and read a passage from Cheyenne McCray's Forbidden Magic - his eyes almost popping out! He kept asking me if I was 'up to' that bit yet (involving the baddie and a couple of men)... It certainly gave him a better feel for the type of books that I could be reading ;)

Jane (PS) | 24338 comments Thanks everyone. Sorry - my brain has been a bit disengaged with a head cold and I haven't put up the next round! I only just realised!

OK - Here is my list of books. I've gone along Penney's lines but not my fav books of all time (that will require too many braincells today) - more, 'here are some good books I've read sometime over the past couple of years that I can recall easily'.

Format: MMPB or ebook - whichever you prefer so long as I can get it in that format.

Slave to Sensation (Psy-Changeling, #1) by Nalini Singh if someone hasn't already read this, then you MUST!
Games of Command by Linnea Sinclair - love my space opera :)
Sticks & Stones (Cut & Run, #2) by Abigail Roux - *warning* M/M romance but you need to read the first book, so...
Cut & Run (Cut & Run #1) by Abigail Roux - I'm hooked on these two agents :)
The Eyre Affair (Thursday Next, #1) by Jasper Fforde - just plain delightful.
Dragon Bound (Elder Races, #1) by Thea Harrison - fun new series.
The Unknown Ajax by Georgette Heyer - I love Heyer's writing style: this one is less romance, more feel-good.
Dance with the Devil (Dark-Hunter, #3) by Sherrilyn Kenyon - I loathed the previous book, but if you have given up on the series, just give it ONE more go.
Burning Wild (Leopard People, #3) by Christine Feehan - You don't need to read the previous two books to get stuck into this one.
The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #1) by Rick Riordan - Just started on this series and am really enjoying it :)

I'll post anywhere and I'll draw the raffle on Thursday morning my time (Wednesday night in the US?)

Merry Christmas!

The rafflers:
1. Penney - Cut & Run (Yay!!)
2. Emily - Slave to Sensation (v1)
3. Valorie - Games of Command
4. Elise - Slave to Sensation (v2)
5. Eimeriina - Slave to Sensation (v3)
6. AshleyAlexis - Slave to Sensation (v4)
7. Fran - Sticks & Stones
8. Barbara - Dragon Bound
9. Caroline - The Unknown Ajax
10. Lexa - Dragon Bound

Ashley♥Alexis | 309 comments I'm surprising myself by not going for the m/m and putting my name in for Slave to Sensation =}

Thanks Jane.


message 1147: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24338 comments Whoa - there are more of you that haven't read S2S!

That must have been a hard decision AA!


message 1148: by Ashley♥Alexis (new)

Ashley♥Alexis | 309 comments Well... as Jim has pointed out a few raffles ago. I need to broaden my horizons =P

Plus, the last book I read by Abigail Roux (The Archer), didn't get finished sooo that doesn't bode well for me wanting to read any of her other books.


message 1149: by Jane (PS), Moderator (last edited Dec 20, 2011 02:05PM) (new)

Jane (PS) | 24338 comments I haven't read The Archer, but I own it... I'll hopefully read it soon and let you know how it compares to the joint effort :)

24 hours to go until I crank up the Randomiser!
