I so wish!! Are you planning on going? I haven't been to an author signing yet. I hate that everything always happens in SoCal. NorCal needs some love too!!"

No, I didn't even know about it till you posted it. I was just kidding. I'm surprised that SF doen't have anything like that.

[Leea]

Kay and Stacia - You have me intrigued about this book...

[Kay]

Stacia ~ mistress of mediocrity wrote: "Btw...how old was [spoilers removed]"

I think he was the same age...but the way he acted, he could have been a couple years younger than (view spoiler)[Isaac. I think he didn't act as weird as Isaac b/c he wasn't her teacher and he didn't have someone accuse him of being a child molester either. (hide spoiler)]

[Kay]

Stacia, let me know if you end up reading the author's other book. I also agree that the book is beautiful. I don't think it's one of my favorites either so I didn't rate it 5 stars.

Leea, nothing that I'm interested in ever happens in SF...especially book conventions. I've checked! LOL

Read it. I think you'll like it. It's a fast read too. It'll only take about a day or two.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

It was a very quick read.

I was also thinking that even though (view spoiler)[David and Isaac had gone to school together that maybe he was a year or two younger than Isaac. I also thought that molestation charge was BS. 17 and 15? That is not unreasonable. (hide spoiler)]

I absolutely want to check out her other book. Soon, hopefully. I still need to read Tiffanie DeBartolo's other book God Shaped Hole. I need to keep up with authors who write really good books and make sure to follow them.

[Kay]

Stacia (view spoiler)[ I also think that the charges were BS too. But since the Swaans (?) were rich, they probably had lots of power in convincing others. Also, she wanted to get back at Isaac b/c she tried seducing him when he was only a kid too. So, I understand why it happened that way. Even though, Isaac turned out to be somewhat of a puss, I still feel sorry for him and what he went through back then. Especially since the town is so small and people tend to talk. (hide spoiler)]

I haven't heard of God Shaped Hole. It sounds fun. I just added it to my list.

Another book I want to read. I wonder how it compares to How to Kill a Rockstar?

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

I hear that it's more sad.

[Leea]

Oh, yikes! I looked on Amazon, they don't have it on ebook just paperback. hmm!

[Kay]

Looks like google has the ebook: http://books.google.com/ebooks?id=I6I...

[Regina]

I can't bring myself to read it.

[Leea]

It sounds incredibly sad... I must read it. lol!

[Regina]

Sucker for punishment! Lol.

[Leea]

Well, misery loves company ;)

[Regina]

Lmao.

[Regina]

First time I have read in a week - I am at a softball game. My other kids are at the tball playoff game so I am alone!! I am enjoying this breif rest. I am reading

[Leea]

How you doing, Regina?

[Marcella]

What is the deal with J.R. Ward's books being so expensive? I still have to buy Lover Reborn (I know, I am so behind) and it is like $17.00 on Amazon. Can I call B.S. on that?

[Regina]

Not good Leea. Trying to be positive. But we are struggling. Sorry to be a downer. Thank you for asking.

Marcella it definitely is BS.

[Leea]

I'm so sorry! I wish I could help you in some way. You're not a downer at all. You are going through something hard and we want to be there for you.

Yeah, $17 is way too much.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

I could never see paying that much for a book unless it was a special edition or had to be shipped from out of country.

[Marcella]

I want to read the book so badly but I refuse to pay that much for a book. Ugh what the hell am I going to do?

[Courtney]

I'm also continuing How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf. I have too many books on my currently reading shelf.

Why don't you check the library? That's what I do when I want to read a book but I'm not willing to pay $20 for the hardcover.

[Regina]

I was just going to suggest that. I know my local library ordered over a dozen of copies for that book. And I bet the waiting time is much less than it would have been two months ago!

[D.G.]

I recently got the hardcovers for and from the library. I'm probably going to read them both next week (hopefully at least one fits the Bingo Shelf!)

Thanks D.G.! I usually like to own the books I read, especially BDB. Maybe I will wait a little longer. Next month is my birthday and I always get Amazon or B&N gift cards.

Not a secret at all, but I loved Fair Game!!!

[Leea]

I read the first 4 chapters of and I really like it so far. I love how books just start right off.

Cass, I like her. I don't know how she (view spoiler)[ Left her daughter and was taken by the zombies? I know it's something bad and that she was an alcoholic and I believe her step father abused Cass. I also think that Cass thought he might do that to her daughter. Clearly there is a story there... (hide spoiler)]

[Tellulah]

Read which somehow I totally missed. And while it followed the template of Bet Me or Welcome to Temptation, it just didn't do it for me. Like a photocopy of the excellent original.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

Reading with a friend and it's my first Loretta Chase book. The style seems a bit formal so far compared to what I'm used to in HR but I'm only a few chapters in and can't tell yet if this is a good or bad thing.

[D.G.]

I love Loretta Chase. The next book in that series: is one of favorite books ever.

LC is really good at writing witty dialogue that uses a more formal style but that usually goes better with the period and the fact that British people tend to beat around the bush (at least compared to Americans.)

Sometimes I read HR set in London and the characters are so direct and straightforward that I wonder if the author has ever met a British person!

Leea, I know what you mean! I was just thinking the same about Chasing Magic -- it just started. No lead up. I loved it. There is a lot about Ruthie, Cass and her mom/step dad. It is a personal journey, most definitely. That is a book that I rushed to get to the end, bc I had to know. Sophie Littlefield writes maternal love so well - -and the details about loving your kids, the details moms remember -- it is in the book of hers I am listening to right now:

[Courtney]

Yay, finally finished ! Not as good as I thought it would be.

I'm really attempted to start a new book, but still got a lot of books on the currently-reading shelf. It's just that none of them call to me like READ ME READ ME!

[Leea]

i'm loving this book. I cannot take my eyes away from Cass. She's so damaged and hurt. I really just want to hug her and tell her it's all going to be okay.

My heart is breaking for Smoke and I hope Cass can find Ruthie.

[Courtney]

Reading

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

Finished and it was fun in parts and cheesy bad in others. Mixed feelings all around. I liked one of the side characters a lot though, so I'll continue on with the series.

[D.G.]

Courtney wrote: "Yay, finally finished ! Not as good as I thought it would be."

That's exactly what I thought too, Courtney.

[Jasja]

Stacia, I think part 2 is a lot better than part 1 and 4 is the very best in that series imho... :D Which one of the side characters is it you liked a lot?

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

Mitch.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

Btw....DG, your comment made me laugh out loud in bed. I must be long winded if you're stuck reading it in two parts!

LOL, no! Most of my reviews tend to be novels so I don't mind reading long ones. I had already started reading your review when I realized I was late for the gym so I figured I should "bookmark" it and come back to it later (which I did.):)

I'm reading a book now where the heroine is an editor and reading your review made me realize how important they are!

Once again I didn't get notifications! It was like that for me too! Cass is so real and I really liked Smoke.

Off to read your review and the comments. :)

is soooo good. Damn I love this series.

I guess ditto! Kay you read this one right? I am loving it.

[Regina]

Ugh, my expensive (first time I bought pricey) earphones are only working in one ear! How am I going to survive the day? LOL.

That SUCKS, Regina! That's why I've taken to the habit of having a few extra pairs of cheap headphones everywhere!

[Regina]

Good idea DG. Very smart!

Mitch is book 3, and he's also one of my favorites.

I haven't read it yet....especially how everything went down between her, lex and terrible in the last book. I'm looking forward to your review.
