Woot, woot!!! Do you see, do you *see*?!?!? of course you see, you wrote this post Maryse, but everyone else!!! The Ground Rules – Undone is up for preorder, yay!!! OMG!! My tummy just did a little a flip, I can’t hardly wait, I know I have to wait, but I don’t want to!
I’m currently reading Kulti… been too quiet around here today! Miss you all!
This will be the 3rd trilogy I finish!! YAY for completing things!! π LOL!!!
Oh well… not to say that Elle Kennedy’s “Off Campus” series is a trilogy… but I’ve read all three books out in it, so I’m on a roll!
Great list Maryse! Starting Dark Room tonight. It sounds intriguing π
Oh an Archer’s Voice movie?!? Yes please!! So happy for Mia! Her books are so amazing. I wonder who would be playing Archer? Its a tough role.
A new Taylor Jenkins Reid book??? *SQUEEEEEEEeEEEE!!!!!!!!!*
*snort* That little “e” up there must have been my voice cracking in all of my excitement. π
*snort* IT TOTALLY WAS your voice cracking!!!!! π
I knew you were a teenage boy.
LOL!!!! I seriously love you guys. π
(And what was that boy name you gave me Bev? Was it Andy? *snicker*)
I’m Maurice. π
I finished Captive Prince 2, and I don’t want it to end! When is this book three coming out anyway? Wah! Things just got crazy good. What now? I hate leaving a great world behind. Ugh. Okay, fine… I’ll go with KMM. Not ready for the real world just yet.
OMG. Maryse that almost made me spew my hot chocolate. Lol.
Cause I speak of the pompitous of love
MichelleS, Feb 2. So what do you think of Laurent? And that ending?
LOL!!! I saw your comment and was all, Maurice? Whaaaa….OH! ‘Cause your name is Maryse! MAR-yse, MAUR-ice. *snort* Got it. π
Aaaaaaaand now I have that Space Cowboy song in my head, thankyouverymuch…”some people call me Maurice *whooot whooooo*”
LOL bev!!!! I’ve heard that one before. π
It’s stuck in my head too, now. hahahaha!!
But I’ve never called you the space cowboy.
And now… I’m the space cowboy. π
Tee hee!!!!
Reading Dark Room and its good. It needs better editing though. Not because of grammar but because of some inconsistencies. I mean how can someone launch a re-opening of a fashion store with new designs in a week? It just seems to far fetched.
Anne, the answer is simple. Elves. Obviously, she got the group that made the shoes to do her fashion line up.
Lol Tessa that has to be the answer! Elves.Why didn’t I think of that? Lol
Oh also he is constantly hard around her. Like ALL the time! She smiles, he gets hard. She breathes, he gets hard. She looks his way, he gets hard. She farts, he gets hard. I mean come on!! Ok rant over lol
Finished Dark Room and it was ok. I was expecting more to be honest. A 2.5/5 for me.
Good to know… thank you Anne!!
Doing a quick scan to catch up on book gossip. A few are calling to me from that list Maryse (or should I saw Maurice).
Its Australia Day here so I think I can shout myself a book…what do you think?
*say
I had to get Hold by Cora Brent because I’ve all the others in the series. I thought that series was finished. I can’t imagine what Hold will be. There isn’t much in the blurb.
Just finished Love in the Light. Nice sequel/ending.
Not sure what I’m reading next, but now I have that Space Cowboy song stuck in my head. Now I’ll be humming it all day at work!!! π
Bev – what do I think of Laurent and that ending? Wow. I had the complete wrong idea. I had to re-read it a few times to get what was going on because it was so convoluted. That scene in the place at the end where the “visitors” do what they do when they see you know who… OMG… was holding my breath the whole time. Great recommendation. Totally my kind of read. Intrigue. A hint of the erotic. Forbidden. Betrayal. Just fantastic.
So I decided against Feverborn. That first amazon review made me rethink the 14 dollar price tag. I am reading Shadow and Bone Book two. Why didn’t I go right into book two? It’s amazing.
Isn’t it fun that we will all be singing the same song today?
So no one else ever hears Maryse as Maurice in their heads?
Y’all better not hear Maurice!!! GASP! LOL!!!!
MA <--- Maaaaaaaa-REESE
Here are the TWO names I am called the most:
Marcy <--- mostly always that. Maurice <--- by those that I tell my name too... always "Maurice? Like a guy's name? You parents must have wanted a boy." *blink blink* So then I do this: MA <β Maaaaaaaa-REESE and do the whole... "You know... like the spanish name Marisa" but without the a on the end. Twice I've been called "Mary-say" Tee hee!!
I didn’t until y’all started in on it. *walks away mumbling and humming*
lol Maryse. You wouldn’t think your name would be that difficult. :-/ It’s very pretty and original.
I woke up with that dang song still playing in my head. Then I had a memory from high school pop in my head that I had totally forgotten about…a guy named Maurice who ran across the stage during a pep rally with nothing but a cape and a mask on. And I mean NOTHING. Let me tell you, a guy’s junk flopping around while he runs is not attractive. Although, the fact that he was a short, little guy (I mean his stature, not…that :P) made it pretty dang hilarious for whatever reason.
I would think if anything that people would mistakenly pronounce your name MARE-eese…but Marcy or Marysay? *snort* It reminds me of this video (over 90 million views!!)…

“It’s very pretty and original.” <——- kinda like "Fabiana". π
I do LOVE the name Fabiana. So pretty…
Amazing news, Maryse! Thanks!
Oh and did you see that Jamie McGuire is writing the continuation of Beautiful Disaster for free on Wattpad!
Love this! But I think I’ll wait till she finish it so I can read everything at once. lol
https://www.wattpad.com/story/60696817-endlessly-beautiful
This is AWESOME news Carla, and I will SO read that!!! YAY US!!! π
Okay – so I guess Michelle is not very original…. since we have a bazillio nof them just on this blog! I always said it right, Maryse, just so you know. Just so you know, when I first started lurking on this blog, I looked you up and when I put Maryse in a search engine I got Maryse Oullet – some blonde bombshell model – and I was wondering if it was you on your “day job” – that’s what I thought for a few months!!! LOL. Then you posted some pics at a convention and I realized you were not said bimbo! HA! My daily confessional.
LOL Michelle!!!
I’m honored that you said my name right!!! YAY!!! And that WWE model/wrestler well.., I’ve always been jealous of her and her hotness. Tee hee!! π Damn her for sharing my name.
P.S. I had it first. So there. π Er… which of course means she’s younger than me… *sigh*
