Hey Marcella! Glad you're back! My brother in law is reading that Stephen King book and he's loving it. It sounds so interesting.

You lips to HBO's ears;) A GoT's type series would be great for Outlander and the only way to truly do it justice. IMO! I really don't believe they will ever make it into a movie/series...

Yeah, not sure how they're going to do Fifty into a movie. I did hear Ian Somerhalder (Vampire Diaries) was interested in the role.

Ian as Fifty???????? I would soooooo watch that!

Mine was unabrdiged, I am not sure why the difference?

Carina wrote: "Ian as Fifty???????? I would soooooo watch that!"

He would be a good choice. He's handsome but has a "bad guy" face. :)

[Carina]

I think the only reason I feel bad for not watching Vampire Diaries anymore, is that I don't see Ian anymore.
Man that guy is eye candy! Plus he's a great actor, so yeah, He's probably a good choice.(And a way to get lots of women to watch the movie!)

[Regina]

I just checked, my library has both the abridged and unabridged, maybe I got the abridged accidentally. I am usually careful about that. I at times felt like things didn't make sense and there were so many leaps - -now I know why.

I totally agree!! He is a good choice and that is how I picture Christian to look like.

I'm a little more than half way into and it's finally picking up. I tried to read last night in bed but I passed out b/c it was so slow. I'm glad it's getting better now.

To answer your question D.G. (view spoiler)[When it came to dealing with Enrique, they just mentioned what happened. There was no confrontation. There was so much build up and there was no follow through. That is what bummed me out. I would have loved for Sascha to confront her mother and tell her that she is no flawed no matter what they all think. And it seemed that Sascha was destined to do something great, and she really didn't do much.(view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)] (hide spoiler)]

[Regina]

Kay I agree! I am at about 70% and I am liking it alot now. It took about 50% for me to get fully into the world, understand it and connect with the main character. However, now I like the story.

[Kay]

you're 70% in? So, you'll probably be done today. I hope to finish it tonight. I will try to sneak in some reading while I'm at work too ;)

[Regina]

Yup, I worked late last night after all our games so I listened alot last night. I will definitely finish today. Alot is happening now! I just can't keep his brothers straight -- what are their names again?

[Kay]

I know one of them is Phillip and Barron???. I'm still reading and slowing uncovering (view spoiler)[ what their intentions are. So far I'm at the part where he is suspect of Phillip and he uncovered a journal (was it a journal?) of his. And also, he just broke out the white cat from the shelter. (hide spoiler)]

[D.G.]

You're right about the business of Enrique. I don't remember what I thought about it.

As an E-Psy, Sasha is really the backbone of the series so you'll hear more about her and her growth in all the following books. She gains confidence slowly -after all people can't change their perception of themselves in one in one day - and her growth goes in tandem with the conflict between the Council and the Changelings. There are even great situations involving her mother in the future.

Although this is PNR, there's a great UF feel to the series. Singh has found a way to create an overall arc without sacrificing the romance so lots of people are recurring characters that actually have roles in the books instead of just showing up.

[Regina]

Kay that is what I thought. I wondered if there was another?

Yes his journal/notes. :)

It starts to get much darker and better.

[Marcella]

Thanks D.G. I was planning on continuing with the series. I just wanted to vent my frustration on the major let down. I hate when books build up to a climax and then it doesn't happen. It really makes me feel cheated. I have heard great things about this series. I am looking forward to seeing where these characters go.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

Psst...it's Leea's bday today. Let's send her some well wishes.

(and I feel extremely bad that I don't know the bdays for most of the people in the group. Leea's is listed in another group which is ultra convenient, so I'm not intentionally ignoring anyone else who's recently had a bday)

[Regina]

Oh m goodness! I did not know! Leea I hope that today is special for you and you get some time alone with your man! :)

[Kay]

Happy Birthday, Leea!!! I hope you get spoiled rotten!

[Regina]

I finished I really liked the last 40%. The beginning was hard for me because I wasn't connecting with the narrator - -and thus not the world or the characters. But at the 55% to 60% mark it really started happening for me. The last last last ending part broke my heart! Poor Cassel!

I am going to return to the audio of so I can finish it.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

I'll be looking out for your review Regina.

If you had a hard time with the first part of WC, then you'll probably like Hold Me Closer Necromancer better. Iirc that one was easier to get into from the start.

Did you see the most recent Virgin River was like $1.99 or something? Or maybe it was the one before it. I don't remember now.

[Marcella]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEEA!!!!! Hope you have an amazing day and that you are being treated like the queen you are. *smooches*

[Regina]

Stacia, I blame the narrator. I think if I had read it like Catie told me to I would have been okay. :) I am torn as to whether I should finish this series or start HMCN.

That is definitely a price drop! None of them (except maybe the recent ones) were very expensive -- ranging from 3.99 to 5.99, the first 4 were in a bundle and may were available free through the prime lending thingee. But 1.99 is a great deal!

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

I'm not seeing the VR one now. Maybe it was a limited time deal. It's only the side novels that are free or cheap now.

Sorry about that. I should have posted it when it was still up.

[Regina]

Nah, it is okay. Leea and I have them all! :)

[D.G.]

Happy Birthday, Leea!

I decided to start . It has gotten tons of bad reviews but I don't know if it is because of the Austen purists or the mystery buffs. I guess I'll find out, LOL!

So far it's funny. :)

I know how that is...there was a lot of buildup about that but who knows why the author thought it wasn't appropriate to follow through.

I'm having the same problem... I was alone yesterday for like 2 hrs and I cleaned, did some laundry and read for 20 min then passed out. I never fall asleep while reading. haha!

[Leea]

Thank you ladies for the wonderful birthday wishes... I'm 34 today!!

[Leea]

You guys are giving me hope about White Cat... I hope to get some reading in today so I can finish and then start tomorrow if I can.

[Regina]

I likely will start Special Forces Sunday, only because I want to get out of the way. :)

That shipped sailed for me last year Leea.

[Leea]

Haha! I had to buy spray adhesive at the craft store the other day and the guy wanted my ID to make sure I was over 18... I almost kissed him:)

[Regina]

Aw! That is great!

I didn't know about the bad reviews but really want to read it. Let me know how you find it.

[Tellulah]

Okay romance lovers - I'm looking for a suggestion for a new racy regency. Thoughts?

[Marcella]

Leea...I just saw your post responding to my post about the books I just read. The Stephen King book was really good. As I said it was a little too long for my taste. Otherwise I loved it!

[Marcella]

Have you read the Play by Play series by Jacie Burton? The story is good but the sex it pretty hot.

[Leea]

Tellulah wrote: "Okay romance lovers - I'm looking for a suggestion for a new racy regency. Thoughts?"

Have you read any Lisa Kleypas books?
I know it's the worst title but it's a great series :)


More contemporary romance with lots of hot hot guys... Kristen Ashley I've only read a few books by her but i've really enjoyed them.
Mystery Man

If all you want is SEX... nothing wrong with that IMO haha! Then here are a few Eroticas that many ladies in this group love.


Happy reading Tellulah!

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

She wants Regency era? I need to read some more of these. I'm definitely not the one who can help.

I really need to focus more on historicals. Maybe I'll try shooting for one a week for the next few weeks.

So far I'm really liking it. It's going very well.

Oh my. Ian or Ryan? Well I love them both so no complaints here!!

I need to read more Historicals too, but there's no way I could read that much, haha.

I'm so glad White Cat picked up for you guys =)

How about Julia Quinn, Tessa Dare, Julia London, Judith McNaught, Lorraine Heath or Sarah MacLean? Have you read any of these authors?

[Leea]

Stacia ~ enchanted wrote: "She wants Regency era? "

LOL!! Clearly I didn't read her post fully. Sorry!
