  1. Yes, it's me, don't all fall over :wink: Of course I had to return to comment on the soundtrack for BD pt 1, here it is in case you haven't seen it ! The Mia Maestro song (Carmen in the film) is apparently a Spanish version of the Bruno Mars track. So, what do you all think? Not happy about the fact there's no Muse but maybe that's a good thing...

     

    Off to catch with what everyone has been reading for the last year

  2. Charm, read Shiver a.s.a.p. - you will like it! If you don't, feel free to ignore all and any suggestions I ever make :doh::giggle:

     

    CW, I have indeed read Burned and am desperately waiting for the next one - they always do the "this is one of those endings that mean you have to read the next book in the series" ending! I've enjoyed the whole series so far but there have been a couple of books that haven't quite as good as the rest. Still, I shall keep reading them, already have the next 3 preordered :giggle:

  3. Whatcha trying to say Fi! :blink:

     

    I am a sweet... Innocent... Lady.. Who is rather shy to 'smut' :angel_not:.

     

    *Runs out of the house to go get the book!* :out:

     

    I is saying nothing :ph34r: :angel_not:

     

    Charm, I liked the Larissa Ione enough to order books 2, 3 & 4 and to preorder book 5 :giggle: Hmm, the last 2 Anita Blake books were short compared to the rest - Flirt was tiny at 192 pages, Bullet slightly better at 384 pages. The Merry Gentry books are supes, mainly faeries, half-breeds, hounds of hell etc. etc. but honestly I enjoyed the first couple better than Anita! Don't tell anyone though ;)

  4. He did! He even had her emotionless 'vibe' down too. :lol:

     

    I loved when the guy who was playing Alice said something like "This is too human for me." :lol:

     

    And wiped sweat off his face :lol:

     

    I liked -

     

    Jacob - "At least we get to kill some vampires..."

     

    Edward - "D**k!"

  5. It's hillarious that they have both Alice and Jane played by guys. My favorite part is when 'Victoria' gets the ladder for the tree! That girl does the dramatic Victoria look perfect!

     

    What's even funnier is that the guy playing Jane, on the odd occasion when he turned his face the right way, looked spookily like Dakota Fanning :o:lol:

  6. Oooo er Missus!!! :giggle:

     

    You think it is my sort of thing Fi?

     

    Totally, if you like a bit of smut now & then :blush::giggle:

     

     

    I admit it! Granted it was some time ago, and the newer books I haven't read (yet) but I tend to re-read "Dark needs at night's edge" every now and then (like last week..). I also confess to reading Sherrilyn Kenyon, but I don't enjoy all her books.

     

    .. so this means I'd enjoy Raven Hart, apparently. (adding to wishlist).

     

     

    Oooh, another Kresley fan! Almost enough for a fan club :giggle: Last one I read was Pleasure Of A Dark Prince and I'm almost certain there's another one due out soonish :) Have you read Sherrilyn Kenyon's Infinity? It's how Nick gets mixed up with Acheron & the gang but YA so no :blush: at all!

     

     

    Ha ha we are all coming out of the closet.

     

    Also adding Raven Heart to my list

     

    Only on here, think my friends IRL would disown me if I owned up to reading Kresley Cole!

  7.  

     

    I only saw this comment Fi, and I like the sound of that!!!!

     

    I really like shiver but could see some things that I would personally like in the furure, so this makes me want to get Linger even more.

     

    Now I've had time to think about it more I definitely liked Linger more but there was the odd thing that irritated me and I really didn't like the new main character who was introduced :( Can't say any more without spoilers though and not going to until other folks have read it!

  8. Current read - The Secret War by M F W Curran

     

    For thousands of years a secret war has been fought between Heaven and Hell. Daemons and angels, vampyres and knights, clash for the future of mankind, and as the two sides wage war across the world, innocent people are caught up in the conflict – men like Captain William Saxon and Lieutenant Kieran Harte, two great friends who have recently survived the horrors of the Battle of Waterloo.

     

     

     

    But now they face a greater struggle, against the daemonic forces of Count Ordrane, and the clandestine ambitions of the Vatican. They must try to survive assassination attempts, political machinations, epic battles on land and sea, and above all the power of a mysterious bronze pyramid – the Scarimadean – that brings everlasting damnation too all who come into contact with it.

     

     

     

    Their only allies are an old man, a fading secret organisation in the Church, and an enigmatic warrior, who may hold the key not only to the friends’ fates, but to the fate of all mankind . . .

     

     

  9. I've completely lost track of what I've mentioned on here and what's in my book journal so starting again :rolleyes:

     

    Just finished Linger by Maggie Stiefvater which I absolutely loved! The continuing story of Grace & Sam, a new character called Cole (didn't think much of him) and more from Isabel - Jack from Shiver's sister. I can't really say any any more without completely spoiling the story so I'll just say I gave it 5/5 and I am now impatiently waiting for Forever to be released next summer :)

  10. Yet another two I have just put on the wishlist. That Pleasure unbound sounds right up my street. Because of the sexual nature I am taking it is not a YA book.

     

    Pleasure Unbound is in no way, shape or form anything like a YA novel! I read it last night as it's been sat on Mount TBR for months and no, definitely not YA :giggle:

  11. Hey well as you know I am a big J r ward fan, meant to ask have you tried any Kresley Cole?

     

    I don't know anyone who actually admits to reading Kresley Cole apart from me :blush: Have you read them all pickle?

  12. Hey Charm, how are you?

     

    The last couple of Anita books have slimmed down in size, I've got the both in HB and they're tiny!!! She's still trampy though, if the books weren't so easy on the brain & mojo I might have stopped reading them by now :rolleyes: Are you going to or have you tried the Merry Gentry series by LKH yet?

     

    I've now got the first Raven Hart book after you talked about it but it's about halfway down my TBR mountain just now, same with the first Larissa Ione book. I'm thinking your mojo & my mojo are conspiring as I only seem to be able to read fluff just now :lol:
