I love that series. The uniform gets brought up a lot in the series. Maybe not yet in that book, but I knew what you were reading as soon as I read your post.

WEEK 5: Mystical Creature: Book:
Finished: 8/6/12
Rating 3.75 stars
Items: Mystical Creature (Ghost) & Nudity
Review: Cat & Bones investigate a ghost of a former inquisitor who was still hunting witches though he was dead. He would terrorize them and then burn them. Well Cat & Bones decided to help Fabian’s new lady, who is the only surviving victim of Kramer. She was on a quest for justice and she wanted to make sure no one else suffered by Kramer’s hands. I never quite understood how Kramer the witch hunter was picking his victims. Obviously all his victims had certain emotional trauma and a lack of family support, but how did he chose what state, what city, what woman? Anyway, how was he able to make himself flesh etc?
This is the only Night Huntress book that I will probably not read again. I was really surprised at how much I wasn’t enjoying it. This is a top 3 best series for me and this last installment was a disappointment.
Still love Ian & Bones though.
Nudity & Mystical Creature: “I was stark naked in a small room with a powerful, pissed-of ghost who’d already brained me with a toilet fixture, and my only effective weapon against him was out of order.”(27%, Ch. 11)
i will be done with my book today, i hope :)
That would be awesome Laura. I guess it's up to you and Amy since everyone else is done.Team 3 & 1 have more item points than we do.
Hey Amy: how are you doing? Are you feeling better?
Mythical creature on the cover (part demon)
07.08 *****Review: "Demonglass" is one of the best YA books i have read. There wasn't one dull moment in it. As first book Sophie got herself in a mess (in Hex Hall), but in this one she goes to England for summer holiday with her friends and dad. She gets got up in a new mystery about demons.
Items:
Mirror or reflection - on the cover
Castle - page 60 - They had a mansion in London, a castle in the north of Schotland and a hunting lodge in Yorkshire
I just noticed Kathy still doesn't have the uniform point from Post 606 on the spreadsheet. Is that because there was no review??
Kathy should have uniform see POST 606!!!!!
Post 606 is part of a conversation about the uniform. I have not seen a post where she finished the book and posted a review.
I havent finished yet SORRY!!!!
ok. seems we jumped the gun. Sorry everyone. I think I am going to disappear for a few days because I'm getting so antsy.
LOL!! I think we're all a bit excited! Sorry Dawn, sorry Kathy.

Excellent job by the way and that goes for Laura! We have a great team!
OK !! All done
False start on this one, just couldnt get into it. Really had to force myself to read it. Roman Dragoneti is a vampire overlord, who manages to lose a fang(!) and needs the help of a dentist. enter Shanna Whelan , and the inevitable romance.
There's some really weird stuff like Roman's tooth and vampire sex with a harem... really couldnt get into it.
items as in post 606
And sorry I was so long!!!!!!!!!! Hope it hasnt hurt our chances?
No way...Kathy....you did a great job! Thanks!
good! And good luck girls!!
Geez CaroB it was hard work! did not enjoy it AT ALL!! Sorry Dawn!
I have to go to work now (8AM EST) and won't have access to this site until tonight (7PM EST). So in case we need it - I am posting my book..if we don't need it - please disregard:
3 Stars! ehhhhh Okay.
I like a more alpha hero and a heroine who can shut up and listen a bit. I found the dialogue between these two to be really getting in the way of the story. It was funny and the banter fun but I think Frost's Night Huntress Series does it better...you never lose sight of the characters, story or romance but in this it just got lost. It was okay, but nothing to rave about.
Mythical Creature (Vampire on Cover-see his little fangs?)
Fire (Pg. 152) "I saw on the news today that there was a fire in a college dorm near Seattle."
Flower (Pg. 165) "Clever of you to plant night blooming flowers, so you can enjoy them."
Vehicle other than Car (Airplane) (Pg.251) "I smell like airplane sweats and the manky Asian candy my seatmate insisted on munching for most of the thirteen-hour flight from Dublin to New York, which had been followed by a two hour hop to Chicago and another hour on a tiny plane-let."
♥☆♫★♡ Kathy♡bahd gihrl♥♡★ wrote: "Geez CaroB it was hard work! did not enjoy it AT ALL!! Sorry Dawn!"The first one is the worst of the series, it took me a while to move on past it too. They are full of stuipid-funny gags like a vamp with a broken tooth and Vanna. The next one the ex-harem makes thier own version of the bachelor tv show.

Kathy,
I didn't like this book either and I had gotten books 1-6 because people raved about. After book 1, I never read the rest. The same for the Undead series by Mary Janice Davidson. I didn't get what people loved about the series.
Good job everyone.
Amy, are you feeling better?
And first place goes to Team 2. 
WOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

Amy, this is over....I was able to read your week five book for you while you were not feeling well. You had a hand in our winning and at the end of the day we all came through as a team. Thank you.Amy, I think I speak for everyone when I say we are glad you sought out help for your health condition. Being sick is no fun and we all hope you are on the mend!

Glad to know you are doing better. Are you on some kind of prescription iron pills? You gotta eat red meat too (no humans of course).
Hope you feel better soon.
I think you should go ahead and add your book when you are done with it.
Ezinwanyi wrote: "Amy ~Lover of Books~ wrote: "Sorry guys. I was in the hospital on Monday through today because I was severe anemic.

Ezinwanyi wrote: "Kathy,that barbie was freaking scary"
Ditto! I always thought Vanna was a little funny but that is just scary.
Hahahah!!! I just couldnt believe it, I was telling DH I was reading about vampires with adult dolls he just cracked up!!
