Lover Reborn: A Novel of the Black Dagger Brotherhood
I loved it. Well…mostly loved it. At times I was irritated because I didn’t think there was enough of what I wanted in it… *ahem* TOHR (and all things Tohr-ish). Annnnd, I had a harder time adjusting to the frequent storyline changes (3 or 4 of ’em going on at once). Just when things would get good (or bad-good)… bam. Switch to another story. A bunch of us were moaning a bit about that, but my friend Penny said it perfectly:

Lover Reborn: A Novel of the Black Dagger Brotherhood
I finally just hit the 50% mark and I’m so into this book. We all know I LOVE Alpha males and I think THIS is the series that started me on ’em. The way these guys speak, their ‘tude, everything about them. PURE MALE!!! Over the course of the years she has written this series, these guys stay true, feel real, and I’m right back at home with them.
It took a bit, getting back into the world and fluctuating between three different stories. I was finding myself missing the old days, when I first discovered this series. You know… when it seemed an entire book centered pretty much on one couple, mostly just the one story, and you could completely lose yourself in them?
Latest Paranormal Book Releases for Tuesday March 27th 2012 – Who’s Ready For More JR Ward & the BDB? I AM!!!
BIG HUGE release day TUESDAY March 27th 2012!!! That’s tomorrow people!! Or TODAY if it’s Tuesday. 😉 Today’s releases include a book we’ve all been waiting for —> Lover Reborn: A Novel of the Black Dagger Brotherhood by J.R. Ward (which I will be reading as soon as I get back from work!!).
There’s also another one that I’ve been patiently waiting for. Wayyyyyy too patiently… considering the “Terrible Fever” I was afflicted with when I read the first three books in the series (devoured them one right after the other) a year or so ago. Sacrificial Magic by Stacia Kane (which I will read, right after the latest BDB book)! I can’t wait to be back with Terrible, Lex and Chess again. That crew turned my world upside down for an entire week, and my heart felt like it would explode over and over again!!
Fun Email That I Received That Portrays My Reaction to Goodreads “Fifty vs. Manny” Perfectly…
Apparently, I wasn’t the only one that raised an eyebrow at these results – I laughed out loud when I read this from fellow reader, Desmond:
“Manny the Main MAN v.s. Fifty the Fast Foot fighter
Lets get ready to RUMBLE!!!!!
*Punch* *Punch* *Euuuuu blood* * Uppercut* *Block*
and the winner was….Manny
*records scratches* and the crowds looks to each other, and winces.
Manny?!?
You mean Manny Manny? Payne’s Manny? Dr. Manuel Manello? Butch’s possible half brother Manny? That Manny? He won Goodreads Choice Awards over Fifty?
Character Look-Alikes – Phury From The Black Dagger Brotherhood
Phury, the hero of Lover Enshrined (my book review can be read here – wow it’s from 2009!! LOL!)
At one time (until his own book!) Phury was competing for my #1 favorite brother. His only competition? His twin, Zsadist. Z was always a touch ahead of Phury for me. As the angrier, more tortured brother, he appealed to my bad-boy curiosity, but Phury was so compelling. A mysterious, intriguing character, a kind and gentle warrior, but obviously tormented in his own way. In my mind, the most gorgeous of them all, and the most noble. Not a bad-boy bone in his body… and yet, another one who was completely unattainable, due to his devotion to his deeply troubled brother.
