Excellent I've added you Nicole. :)

Kirsten Bailey (klbailey) | 86 comments Looking forward to it!


message 104: by Rhapsody (new)

Rhapsody | 27 comments Hi Mel, thanks for the welcome. Would be interested in joining it but it would probably be at the tail end of the discussion due to timezone difference. Also, not familiar with Google+ or the webcam thing. When you say add you do you mean in the friends circle?


Mel (booksandsundry) (booksandsundry) Yes that's what I mean Rhaosody, or you can put a link to your profile here and I'll find you that way.

Rosetta (rosettakatrina) | 22 comments Hi All,
I was wondering if it was still OK to join in even if I had not read this months books? I would still like to try to see if I can join the Google+ talk (I have never used it before) and to meet my fellow Australians who love Vaginal Fantasy.

I can't see why not Rosetta, we tend to talk about a lot of things. :D


message 108: by Rhapsody (new)

Rhapsody | 27 comments Thanks Mel, I will add you.

Hey Rosetta, I have not read this month's book yet either. I am actually reading June's book, Desperate Duchesses instead :) but wanted to "meet" with other VF Aussies.

Justine Mcintyre (justinemcintyre) | 23 comments I'm in Brisbane too :) (SO excited for Supanova this Nov!!) Probably won't be able to make the hangout tomorrow night but hopefully can in future! I'll add on G+ anyway, mine is https://plus.google.com/u/0/114757695...

Rosetta (rosettakatrina) | 22 comments Thanks guys :)
I did read Ill Wind years ago, it was one of the first books I read in this genre. I picked it up with a whole heap of other books while I was waiting to meet Terry Prattchet in Canberra a few years ago (one of the highlights of my life). I moved house at the end of last year and have slowly been unpacking, and it happens to be one of the books I unpacked. Dont judge me! I had 6 book cases, 2 of them were double. Thank goodness I have now switched to an ereader! I will see how much I can get through by tomorrow night, normally I am a fairly fast reader.
And Rhapsody and I can talk about Desperate Duchesses!


Mel (booksandsundry) (booksandsundry) Okay I have a total of 8 people attending tonight's hangout. Can anyone who I'm missing from the list below please let me know.

Lisa
Fiona
Nicole
Kirsten
Rosetta
Rhapsody
Justine
Plus myself. :)

I'm sending specific invites tonight, not a general one so I need to know if you're not listed.

Can't wait everyone, have those drinks ready!

Rosanna | 22 comments Hey girls, not sure if I'm able to make it to the hangout this time :( been a crazy month! Any who, just send me an invite and I'll let you know at 8 if I can make it!

Sezshares | 20 comments Fantastic to meet you all! Thanks again to Mel for organising. Now I'm off to sort out Brissie for Supernova.


message 119: by Kirsten (new)

Kirsten Bailey (klbailey) | 86 comments Thanks for the chat tonight ladies! Sorry I didn't say goodbye my computer booted me off when I tried to do that name thing. Can't wait for Supanova! Going to get a hotel room so I don't have to drive back home (even though I live in Brisbane... alright Ipswich but I usually don't tell people that)

Justine Mcintyre (justinemcintyre) | 23 comments Nice to meet everyone!! :)

Very excited for Supanova! Yeah I live in Logan and I tend to just say "Brisbane" as well haha, I understand


Mel (booksandsundry) (booksandsundry) Thanks Ladies for a great night chatting. I've shared our screen shot here: http://www.goodreads.com/photo/group/...

I've also shared the VF Australia circle I've created. It should show up in everyone's home feed on Google+. All you have to do is add it and give it your own name. Hopefully that will mean as I add people it will update for you all.


message 123: by Kirsten (new)

Kirsten Bailey (klbailey) | 86 comments Thanks for all the organising Mel! :)


Mel (booksandsundry) (booksandsundry) Hi everyone, I've created a Facebook group for us if anyone wants to join. Just follow the link and request to join. Next time I log on I'll approve you and you'll be in. I made it closed so no one outside the group can see it. That way you don't have to be shy about sharing.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/21251...


Mel (booksandsundry) (booksandsundry) Our next date will be very early in the month and I also won't be able to make it due to work. So I'm going to suggest we move it to the Monday before the official hangout if that's okay. If not please say something because we may be able to arrange something that works better.

Proposed date for the next hangout: Monday 24th September, 8pm EST.

One Foot in the Grave

Ok guys, here is my fav audiobook series at the moment. I didn't read them, so I don't know if it comes across as well reading it as listening to it on audiobook. So let me know what you think.

Lots of fun talking to you all. xox


Mel (booksandsundry) (booksandsundry) Dragon Actually (Dragon Kin, #1) by G.A. Aiken

Here's the first of the Dragon series that I mentioned tonight ladies.

Also for Sephanie Plum, not vaginal fantasy but a great energetic read.

One For The Money (Stephanie Plum, #1) by Janet Evanovich

Hope you're feeling better soon Lisa.

Niaomi (naespeedreads) | 32 comments Sorry I missed it guys, family drama is keeping me away from the computer and I completely forgot it was so close to the end of the month.

Hopefully next time Niaomi. :)


message 132: by Rosetta (new)

Rosetta (rosettakatrina) | 22 comments Hi Guys,
Are you planning on reading the Cthuthurotica book this month? I just brought it, $3.99 is not much. I have never read anything in that genra before, it has never appealed to me. So just wondering what everyone is else is thinking? Have you read it, are you reading it?


message 133: by Niaomi (new)

Niaomi (naespeedreads) | 32 comments Hey Rosetta, I've just downloaded it as well, (although I couldn't download it on my kindle app cause its not available in australia apparently) so I'll be reading all of it, but Bonnie did say they were only going to be talking about some of the stories in the next main hang out. But it looks like it should be really interesting so I can't wait to read it.


message 134: by Rosetta (new)

Rosetta (rosettakatrina) | 22 comments I know! How stupid you can't buy it on Amazon. Lucky the other website had lots of options. Halfway through a story now, yet to find a cthulhu whatever type thingy


message 135: by Sezshares (new)

Sezshares | 20 comments I've started the dinosaur one. So far it's a bit over the top :-D


Mel (booksandsundry) (booksandsundry) I'm planning on giving it a go, but I'm waiting til I've gotten rid of this flu. Seems the wrong kind of book for when you're sick. Did anyone try the free version on goodreads first?


message 137: by Rhapsody (new)

Rhapsody | 27 comments Rosetta, I have bought Cthulhurotica and like you I have never read anything like this before. It is interesting...so far.

Sezshares, I hope to read the Eternal Pleasure afterwards.

I read the free sample from Goodreads but really didn't care for it, so wont bother downloading the rest of it

Yep! You still get like 4-5 stories and 2 poems with the free sample.
None of it did anything for me so I wont bother downloading the rest of the book.


message 140: by Kirsten (new)

Kirsten Bailey (klbailey) | 86 comments I finished it! It was definitely weird - not something I would usually have read.
I wrote a short comment about each of the stories in my review here:

(Spoilery!)


message 141: by Rosetta (new)

Rosetta (rosettakatrina) | 22 comments Hi Guys,

How are you feeling Mel? I have been thinking of you and sending mental bowls of chicken soup and good drugs to help you feel better.

I have had so much trouble getting into this topic, and Kirsten your link will be the first I follow after this, so thanks for that. I am trying to be good, and not read the "Hot" book until after I have done my homework so to speak.

But seriously, at the moment, don't buy the book if you don't like the freebee samples. If you like, I will read out all the good bits during our hangout. If you are really good, I will read out all the really bad bits during our hangout as well!

Actually, to tell the truth, the book is really well written. It reminds me of the short stories I had to read in Fifth Form english (year 10 in Australia I think). It's just that the topic does not do anything for me.


Mel (booksandsundry) (booksandsundry) Thanks Rosetta, I'm much better now though it took a while to get over.

Just a heads up for everyone, the hangout this month is on a Monday 24th September, 8pm EST. I'm setting up all the locations (goodreads, google+, facebook) with an event listing so people can let us know if they're attending or not.

We also have a VF Australia group on Facebook now if anyone wants to join there. https://www.facebook.com/groups/21251...

Niaomi (naespeedreads) | 32 comments Adele I can't seem to add you? I open your g+ profile and it just goes to a blank screen...

edit- ok I just needed to delete the /post bit and it was fine.

Hi Laura, I've added you on G+ and have now sent you and invite for the hangout. :)


Mel (booksandsundry) (booksandsundry) Hi everyone, just a reminder about tomorrow night. Our hangout on google + is at 8pm EST. If you haven't let me know that you're coming at one of the invite spaces please do so as I won't be sending a general invite due to numbers.
