*grumble*

I really dislike when a menage/triad has rules that prohibit two of the three from being intimate when the other person isn't there as well. In this case it's especially irritating because the 2 were in a relationship for 4+ years before the 3rd came along. As much as I applaud the effort to make everything "fair" (& soothe the worry of the out of town 3rd) I feel like this is an unreasonable restriction.

Three quarters of the way in and NOW we get a POV change? Argh, I hate that...

Hmmm...I think I am going to have to make some of this breakfast dish called "Kedgeree." Sounds oddly delicious...

FINALLY! That was hot and I loved that they were laughing a bit during sex.

I love that Neko society didn't shame a weaker, smaller males who showed more aptitude for the "softer arts" than the more dominant males would for hunting...that their other abilities and gifts were nurtured & just as valued.

Damn, and I thought BloodRaven was difficult to get through...

3000 Million. You mean 3 Billion? How odd a phrase...

LOL @ referencing the unusually high murder rate in Midsomer. It's not as high as Cabot Cove, Maine though!

LOL! The tourists on this bus sound like the ones with me & my family on our trip to China, asking about where they can shop, where there might be more "American" style bathrooms (no squatting), if there would be a place to get less "Chinese" type food for lunch...and one old lady that actually complained about the overcrowding & all the people speaking Chinese.

Yes, in China.

'Muricans for you, even back in 2014!

Another Pushing Boundaries read...

Is it me or did the search books function change so that you can't look for a specific word on just ONE shelf, like your TBR, but instead you get results for of all your books?

Sure, I could filter it by "date read" (descending) to get the titles I haven't read yet to list first...but what if I wanted to filter for something else instead? Like page total, or author name? What a PITA...

Hmmm...not as dark as I thought it would be. Whew! I mean, it's definitely not fluffy or romantic, and there are some violent interactions...but Misha is Donato's whore by choice & can back out at any moment.

Anyone got any het FemDomme recs? Preferably with male pegging but must have NO humiliation kink or slut shaming if the guy likes it...

This is why I love teachers. Also, grammar FTW!

You'd think I was on some sort of dark, demented book kick; nope, it's spaces I keep landing on for the Pushing Boundaries challenge!

Oooof, that first half was dark & hard to read.

BINGO read!

Meh. If I hadn't been restricted by a list of what to read I'd have chosen something else...

Damn, having an STD can get you banned from obtaining a good job because the government doesn't want "sick" people in those positions? Sound like a cross between Untouchability and the new Chinese Social Credit system...

Oh NOES! I was hoping there would be a Princess Bride moment where it doesn't count...and since he didn't technically say, "I do" or "yes" I guess it kind of does, right? Right???

"Once they got the hang of sex, they just kept doing it."

LOL!

Don't you hate it when there's a book you want to add to the TBR but it's not actually listed here on GR yet?

Holy crap.

I can't believe the Las Vegas Golden Knights have made it to the Stanley Cup Final in their first effing season. I really wish I'd placed a bet on that like I originally thought to do when the expansion was announced...

Wait, what? Colt got an A in the middle of a heart tattooed on his shoulder as a way of never forgetting Avery...but only a few pages ago he told Mack that he couldn't bring his memory (of Avery) to the ranch because constantly nursing a broken heart would keep him from that "clean slate" he was working toward.

I was never all that fond of the high-protocol use of "Master" during BDSM scenes in my romance books...and now I've discovered I'm not all that fond of "Sir" either - but for completely different reasons. "Sir" is just awkward here, more than I remember it sounding in other books...

"Sir is in charge," Avery said.

Referring to yourself in the 3rd person like that is weird...

You know, I didn't mention it in my review for the last book but I think discovering a previously "forgotten" ghost-town would be really cool. My family and I love to visit those places; every time we go out of town the first thing I do is check the driving route to see if we pass by any of the sites listed on ghosttowns.com - I wish it had a more interactive platform as it's hard to use on portable devices.

Oh, okay, so we're going with an immediate infodump of what happened at the end of the last book. :/

Maybe if I get another one of my ARCs done and posted at NetGalley I will magically be approved for Cash Plays?
