Let me give you and idea of the way my mother talks: When she says washrag, it come out warshrag.

Heh. My mom also is cursed with extra "r's."

My hands are getting stronger, more flexible. I can finger things well enough now to pick my nose and ears. Sometimes I find myself doing so involuntarily in front of Mel, who thinks it's hilarious, yells, "Pick a winner, dollface."

Heh. Now that's friendship. :)

She has thus holier-than-thou way of trying to mystify what she does, make it this exclusive practice the rest of us are too dumb to get. Which is sad. I mean, what good is it to do this [art] for a living if you can't share it with people? If it doesn't bring people together?

She steps in front of me, reaches into the waistband of her pants, and produces a Colt .22 Screams, "Okeydoke, cunts, who want to be first?" She shoots into the pack. They scatter.

LOL.

It's like trying to chat with a monkey who's masturbating into a mirror.

:D

Her boyfriend's name is Beardsley. Beardsley. LOLOLOL!

Sounds like a spoiled Scottish terrier.

Red Line taught me one of the most important lessons I have ever learned, the voice says. Never work for free.

Amen, sister.

"You ever seen Heavy Metal: That futuristic cartoon from the eighties?"

Yes, yes, I have. It's awful: sexist, adolescent, and yet now, I want to hunt down a copy and watch it again. (So awful it's kind of great.)

At this point, I'm only hanging in here out of mild curiosity for how Jack's plot line ends. The whole robot secks thing, however, is just...somewhere between tedious and revolting.

Eliasz ran his hands over he carpace, finding the edges of her armor plates and trying to reach between them to feel the woven fibers of Paladin's muscles. "You feel so good."

Double UGH! "Carapace" makes it sound like he's fucking a huge bug.

She wrapped her arms gently around him and bent her head so that he could kiss the fine mesh over her voice synthesizer.

UGH! How is that sexy? It's like kissing Atom from the movie Real Steel. Or the Iron Giant. Yuck.

This started so strong. And one plot line, Jack's quest for an antidote to the workaholic drug, is still interesting. But the whole robot luv plot line is just...ugh. As Paladin is described, he isn't organic, but more like a small Voltron. Nothing sexy 'bout that, unless gettin' bizzy with toasters is your thing. ZzZZZZZzzzzZZ.

I like Jack's plotline, but Paladin and Eliasz, are boring. Not sure how you make a killer robot boring, but this book is doing it.

"We're always happy to help any large company stop criminals, of course." The senator nodded at the Zaxy VP, who offered an empty smile. "Piracy undermines free trade, and punishes the most productive member of our society." Having finished his speech, the senator check his cornea feed again.
In the year 2144, politicians are still slime.

Pretty much an obvious, preaching to the choir, sort of book. But the artwork is adorable, and the tone, hopeful. Nice stuff for a hot summer day when working with a plasma torch and welder in the non-air conditioned shop ain't happening.

Despite this being a Tor freebie, I'm not excruciatingly bored. At this point, I like it.

Another Tor freebie. These are often hit or miss. Hoping it'll be good.

His face brightened even more. "I had to come see this magnificent work for myself. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Henry Shufflebeam."

Who talks like this? Ugh. I've seen enough. Tapping out now

I refused to answer such a question. Didn't she ever have anything else on the brain. She acted like such a guy sometimes with that libido of hers drivng her speech.

Miss Thang is talking about her best friend. Aside from the slut shaming, and gender stereotyping, she's a hypocrite who lost her mind in previous chapter over a guy.

"Of course," I said like I knew what he was talking about. "Still looks like a crow to me."

The bird(s) in question are a pair of Red-wing blackbirds. Both are waay smaller than crow, one with distinctive red bars on the wing, the other brown. Why are New Adult heroines so stupid?

It is not a crow, he said.

Of fuck, another female protagonist who is too stupid to breed. Who doesn't know what a crow is?

So her extra credit for Zoology class is find a few birds and write about them. Seriously?

Thus far, there have been multiple instances of slut shaming, body shaming and mean girl hyperbole. Ick.

Weaving through the crowds of public service men and women, the woman made it to the surrounding pedestrians.

Uh, "public service men and women?" I think you mean "first responders," or better yet, EMTs, firefighters and cops.

This sounds like utter shite, and not in an entertaining way. But it's on my Kindle and I don't delete until giving something a few pages.
DNF likely impeding....

After some weeks, Leon says, "I love you, Molly."
"No, you don't, you silly sausage. You think you're in love because I'm emotionally unavailable. You'll get over it."

Ha! Truer words were never spoken.

Fuck Adele and fuck children for being creepy.

:D

Ugh. Shaving.
Molly decides she will not be shaving her legs, armpits, or anywhere else blighted by puberty.

Heh.

"Pray for the world, dear Sara. War is coming."

*Snort.* He's "coming." So many sex jokes, so little time.
