  1. I put Agatha Christie away for now, I'm not in the right mood for her and I don't want to spoil the book for me. So instead I'm gonna read Undead and unemployed ba Mary Janice Davidson.
  2. Hmm, during the whole show I kept on wondering what a Pop Tart is and this Danish thing. I don't think we have this here..
  3. Julie Kenner > Pretty Daemon (Deja Demon) Synopsis from amazon Like most women, Kate Connor had too many things to do and not enough time to do them. Along with supporting her husband Stuart’s campaign for political office and planning the neighborhood Easter party, Kate has all the regular “mom” jobs. But unlike other moms, Kate is also a Level Four Demon Hunter. So when an old foe, High Demon Goramesh, returns to San Diablo with his army of the undead, Kate once again has to find time in her busy schedule to save her corner of the world. Kenner deftly serves up another captivating blend of neatly crafted characters, sharp humor, and paranormal-steeped suspense that is certain to charm readers hooked on this entertainingly original series. My thoughts This is the last book of the series, at least in german it is. Unfortunately there will be no 5th book published in german, due to too less copies sold. Aww I really don't like to mix up series but I already ordered the fifth book in english to read more of this Buffy-like mum. Yet again the showdown in the end is way too short and I found myself wondering if I missed a few pages or something But the rest of the story is again very entertaining, one part wich I found very funny was Rating: 4/5 Series: Kate Connor 4
  4. Julie Kenner > Wie angelt man sich einen Daemon (Demons are forever) Synopsis from amazon Finding the right balance between a career and a family is never easy, but throw in a few demons and things can really get tricky. At least that's what Kate Connor discovers when she comes out of retirement to battle the forces of darkness in San Diablo. And if finding time to take care of her family and deal with Andramelech (the latest demon determined to take over the world) isn't enough, Kate's teenage daughter Allie has just discovered her mom's secret "job" and now wants to follow the same career path. And then there is rogue demon hunter David Long, who just might be Kate's first, and supposedly deceased, husband, Eric, in demon disguise. No wonder Kate never has time to keep up with her housework! This is the third in Kenner's splendidly creative series featuring Kate, whose wickedly amusing adventures in demon hunting are a pure paranormal delight. My thoughts Again a very entertaining read. This one got more interesting as Kate had to tell her daughter the truth about herself. It's fun how eager Allie is to learn all about demon hunting. As in every book of the series theres quite a long, let's call it middle section and then a rather short showdown in the end. I would like the showdowns to be more detailed and well, longer. Rating: 4/5 Series: Kate Connor 3
  5. I finally finished Deja Demon and started Hickory Dickory Dock by Agatha Christie. My Mojo seems to have left me a bit, as I started Deja Demon almost 2 weeks ago.
  6. Be prepared to see your TBR pile and wishlist grow
  7. I'm so excited and very lucky to be able to go, because later that evening I gotta catch a train to switzerland for a mini-vacation. Fortunately the train leaves at midnight and the reading is at 8.15pm. That should be enough time. I also signed up for John Katzenbach in November
  8. I just reserved tickets for readings by Karin Slaughter and John Katzenbach :woohoo: Karin Slaughter will be in town next week and John Katzenbach in November. I'm so excited!! Hopefully they also sign books!!
  9. I just reserved tickets for Karin Slaughter, who's coming to town next week. It's supposed to be a reading but hopefully she'll sign books aswell!
  10. Wall.E and even so my bf doubted he would like it, he actually did. Hahaha
  11. Me too, usually. But with the Virgin Suicides I actually saw the movie first, which only happens if I really don't know that there's a book.
  12. That's a good one! I even have the english and the german book and the dvd aswell
  13. I found out, that the last book of the Kate Connor Series by Julie Kenner, is not the last book. It's only the last book they published in german, because they couldn't sell enough they are just not going to publish the fifth book in german at all. What am I gonna do now? Have 4 books in german and one in english? Buy all five books in english and dunp the german ones or keep the german ones. Not read the fifth book at all? I hate it when things like that happen.
  14. Oh I love Tim Tams!! We even have an Australia-Shop in the next town who sells Tim Tams. But you have to be there on the exact day, they get the new stock, otherwise it's all sold out.
  15. Hey Weave, I'm fine, thanks How are you? The Passage will probably be the next book on my reading list, but I'm only 100 pages in in my current book. We'll see, when I can get to it.
  16. I'm currently reading the last of the Kate Connor Series Julie Kenner > Deja Demon
