*grumbles* happy monday
*holds out mug for extra strong coffee*
Tweaks Leslie on the nose and runs…happy Monday, Sunshine!
It’s rainy and gloomy, and I’d rather be home reading myself!!!
Horrible sleep…..
Lisa and Leslie let’s all play hooky from work and read?
House guests, cleaning, party…, I’m wiped! I’ve been MIA, unwillingly. Happy Monday. Need an IV of coffee stat.
*blinks* Good morning. I’d be excited about War Storm but I still have to read King’s Cage. That was another casualty of my nonfantasy mood.
That said, I got Tacet a Mortuis. Even though they desperately need an editor, the second was better and the story is my type.
Coffee.
Nap.
Coffee.
Please.
Good morning! Excited to start the Voyeur BR this morning!
*yawns loudly*
Is it seriously only 10:00?? Ughhh… *reaches for more coffee*
Absinthe of the Heart was a definite click. Reviews used the word βguttedβ so YES please.
Ooooooooh GUTTTTTTEDDDD!!!! That’s my catnip, too!! π
Running back to check Absinthe of the Heart. Blink…blink. How did I miss gutted?
Gutted? That’s my catnip! Ooh! I’m checking too!
War Storm, War Storm, War Storm!!
Tessa- I agree. Tacet needs major editing. I like the story but some things are not consistent I noticed.
Robyn, I haven’t read it yet, but I fully expected bad editing. I almost didn’t read the second one because the editing is so horrible. It’s like she just finished the first draft and thought, good enough. π That said, still totally intrigued by the story.
Absinthe does sound good, but it’s book one and I think book 2 doesn’t come out until September. Putting it on my tbr list.
Maryse, Worth the Risk, K. Bromberg’s latest released today.
Finishing Ride- which I am LOVING and then reading that one.
Thank you Cheryl!! Then, please update us on how you’re liking Worth the Risk. π
Ooh. A new Jana Aston. Didn’t see that coming. *runs to amazon to one-click*
Wait.
First Maryse needs the Ahjussi to gut her.
bev, I’m having vivid images from a horror movie… of the Ahjussi… gutting me. *gasp!!!*
Jana Aston is an automatic Click for me!!!!!! Loved her debut novel βWrongβ and every single one since. But that first one. Heβs her gynecologist and sheβs a VIRGIN!!!!!!!!! I absolutely loved it. I bet this new one will be fantastic too.
To watch one show.
Then hopefully be awake to read one chapter.
Then off to sleep.
Sleep? Whereβs this βsleepβ you speak of??
I’m really liking the sound of Worth the Risk!! But I have too many books to read right now!!!!
YAWN! You ladies must be in a different time zone than me. My coffee parade is just starting. Saving grace: 1-click happiness π “Worth The Risk” you are mine! Coffee, book, kitty-cat in lap. I think I’ll make it through this morning.
LOL Teri!!! Your morning sounds pretty perfect. π
