Aerykah wrote: "And now..... I'm battling to control the urge to speak with a British accent"No, Aery...never battle that urge. Just give in. ;)
@Soph - It's great! You'll love it! ;D@Alice - I do too quite often. Other accents too. ;)
@Nicole - I must battle it when I'm out in public! Just imagine this conversation...
Random Stranger- "Oh, I love your accent! Where are you from?"
Me (dropping the fake accent)- "Um... Oklahoma."
R.S.- "I thought you had an accent... Sounded British maybe..."
Me- "I did. And it was British."
R.S.- "But you're from here? And I don't hear an accent now."
Me- "Well, this is how I talk normally. I don't actually have an accent."
R.S.(starting to look suspicious)- "Why would you use a fake accent?"
Me- "Beeecause it's fun..."
At this point, R.S. gives a weird look & walks away mumbling "Oookaaaayy..."
This has actually happened to me twice!
LOL THATS HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!! Random Stranger probably thinks you're like some secret agent person. ;)

Oh, and I'm currently reading
by (my cousin!) Brandon Barr.

You know, I guess I could just make it more interesting for my audience by talking to myself using multiple accents... ;D

I'm now reading
by Mary Connealy which takes place in Texas in 1870. Talk about a total switch in gears from my last book!!

Haha, it did!
And you should totally try that multiple accent talking to yourself trick sometime! AND let us know how it goes! xD
@Alice - Have you never read any of Mary Connealy's books? There's a reason your sister loves her. ;)@Evelynn - LOL! Okay, I'm really gonna have to do this! If I end up in a psycho ward... I'll just blame it on you. haha! ;P
@Aerykah: Haha, oh yeah, just blame EVERYTHING on me! xD Just as long as you let me know what happens, I'll let you blame it on me! xD
LOL! I'm glad you're okay with me blaming you. ;P If I do end up trying that... I will let you know what happens.Seriously considering it, but..... idk ;)

Finished Cinderella Dressed in Ashes last night, now resuming Tallstar's Revenge. Ishoul have TR done tinight or early tomorrow, in which case I'll once again be forced to chose another book. Yes, forced.
I need to proof read more lol. *I should and *tonight. AND I have to keep adding cooments to correct myself 'cuz the android app doesn't allow comment editing. :(

LOL! You totally should. ;)
Oh, I didn't even realize. :P xD I just read Michelle's comments back there. LOL! I do that all the time. :P You can edit your posts once they're posted, y'know. :)
Yeah, on a laptop, but my smartphone app won't allow it and my modem isn't working right, AND trying to use the full site on my phone is slow and it acts stupid...so yeah, it's a lot more trouble than just adding a comment :-(

I sometimes use the Goodreads app on my mom's iPad. :)
People always note the things they want GR to implement, but I wish they'd just give more off the current features to the app, like being able to 'like'...but, ya know, while still keeping it easier to use than the full site :-/ Ehh, whatever. Finished Tallstar's Revenge...still not sure what next. =/
Soph wrote: "Let me know how it goes. I want to read that soon :)"I will.It's going to take me a while.It is huge.My copy clocks in at 649 pages.I think this is going to be the longest book I have read this year.
After I read the book I am going to watch the series.
