  1. I really like the whole Tempe series, it's very similar to Patricia Cornwell's Scarpetta series, which is really good too
  2. That's good
  3. Yeah it's what they do if they're pitching a new show, they run the pilot to see how many people watch and the reaction to it, if it's good then it gets picked up, if not it gets dropped
  4. I guess it's that they know better than anyone what will catch people's eyes and sell better than others
  5. Yeah, like someone suggested earlier, they might bring some interns forward, or maybe focus more on some of the other doctors like Bailey and the Chief, show more of their home life etc.
  6. So glad you enjoy this one Paula, it's my favourite of Clay and Elena too I can't wait for Frostbitten either, but it seems so long away
  7. Maybe, but I hope not! I love this show way too much for that!
  8. Thank you! Your profile is gorgeous too :D

  9. Cheese salad pittas, yum
  10. I'm glad you enjoyed it! I thought the ending was a little rushed, I would have liked to see more of Beast, but I thought it was a great story
  11. Hahahaha, yeah I hated that bit of the last book, I felt it dragged on much longer than it needed too
  12. I've read all 9 in the past month, they were great
  13. Just some pizza tonight, not feeling that hungry
  14. I agree with the ghost thing
  15. I'm not sure what you know of Season 5 but what happens is (obviously if you read it'll completely spoil it for you) ~ Here's the link if you want to watch it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11BfYQXvZlQ

  18. Dead And Gone by Charlaine Harris No. of pages: 288 Rating: 5/5 Series: Sookie Stackhouse (Book 9) Synopsis: Except for Sookie Stackhouse, folks in Bon Temps, Louisiana, know little about vamps—and nothing about weres. Until now. The weres and shifters have finally decided to reveal their existence to the ordinary world. At first all goes well. Then the mutilated body of a were-panther is found near the bar where Sookie works—and she feels compelled to discover who, human or otherwise, did it. But there’s a far greater danger threatening Bon Temps. A race of unhuman beings—older, more powerful, and more secretive than vampires or werewolves—is preparing for war. And Sookie finds herself an all-too human pawn in their battle. Review: Being that the world hasn't gone crazy over the vampires revealing themselves, the weres and shifters decide they're going to come out to the human public too, and of course it doesn't go well. Within days a mutilated were-panther body is found hung on a cross outside Merlotte's, and with her brother being accused - yet again - of the murder, Sookie takes it upon herself to find out who the real murderer is. On top of that, her newly revealed relative brings an awful lot of trouble Sookie's way. I really liked finding out about Eric's human life and how he was turned in this book, and it was also nice to see a lot more of him, being that he's my favourite character. Of course Bill has to be all noble and stand in to protect Sookie, and I wonder how that will play out in the future, I really hope she doesn't go back to him. Of course there's another war, this time between the Fairies and it doesn't end well, in fact I was very upset that one of my favourite characters was killed. I kind of feel a bit like Charlaine is just recycling storylines now, there have been 3 wars in the past two books, she's just changing the race of the creatures it's between. I'm more than ready to see something fresh from book 10, and I'm curious to see where she'll take us next in this series.
  19. From Dead To Worse by Charlaine Harris No. of pages: 340 Rating: 5/5 Series: Sookie Stackhouse (Book 8) Synopsis: After the natural disaster of Hurricane Katrina and the fight at the vampire summit, everyone - human and otherwise - is stressed, including Louisiana cocktail waitress Sookie Stackhouse, who is trying to cope with the fact that her boyfriend Quinn has gone missing. It’'s clear that things are changing - whether the weres and vamps of her corner of Louisiana like it or not. And Sookie - Friend to the Pack and blood-bonded to Eric Northman, leader of the local vampire community - is caught up in the changes. In the ensuing battles, Sookie faces danger, death, and once more, betrayal by someone she loves. And when the fur has finished flying and the cold blood finished flowing, her world will be forever altered. Review: After surviving the trouble at the vampire summit, Sookie just wants peace, but with the weres going to war and other vampires trying to take over Louisiana, peace is out of the question. So again Sookie gets caught up in the supernatural fights, but will she manage to get out unscathed? I think Charlaine used this book to wrap up several plot points because I found it a little too busy with so many different things happening one after another. But that's not to say it wasn't fun to read, or unenjoyable, it just probably would have made a little more sense for her to have staggered it over two books rather than just shove it all in this one so she could start something new with the next book. It was very action packed with all the fighting though and was really quick to read because there's so much to keep you immersed. A couple of the plot points ended quite obviously, for example the result of the were war, I had guessed that was coming for quite a while. Still loving this series though, it's completely gripped me, and I can't seem to put the books down!
  20. I'm another that hates small print, I won't buy a book if I see it has it. Other than that, I'm pretty easy going
  21. You should take it Ben, Giulia is happy for you to have it, and it's a great read (I thought so when I read it anyway), sorry you couldn't get into it though Giulia, it sucks when that happens
