80s Wednesday

Okay, today's 80s pick isn't exactly from that decade because the books were written and published beforehand, but I didn't get a chance to experience them until I was in high school in the late 80s. I'm talking about none other than S.E. Hinton . The writer who first m…

WHO, reading & werewolves

Well, DOCTOR WHO just seems to get better and better ! We watched it on Saturday night and it totally rocked! I'm lovin' David Tennant... he's ultra cool. Rose is pretty good too, though I don't know what's happened to Billy Piper's hair this season. Ugh. She needs…

CRESCENT MOON

Yesterday I ordered Midnight Moon from my fave bookstore, and was reminded that I still hadn't read the first book in Lori Handeland's new trilogy. So I picked it up last night, intending to read a few chapters to get a taste of it... but I enjoyed it so much I had to stop only …

KITTY GOES TO WASHINGTON

Cool cover, huh? And it matches the first book. Extra cool! Anyway, I love this: Kitty, the country's only celebrity werewolf,gets subpoenaed to testify before a Senate hearingon supernaturals. What could possibly go wrong? LOL! Have you guys read the book? The answer's in there!…

80s Wednesday

Pac-Man We all remember this game, right? Back when going to the arcade was actually fun because we didn't have as many mediums as we have available today. I was never good at this game, but it was still fun to play! Those ghosts sure are cute too! :)

Back to school!

4am seems to be some kind of bizarre trend. Yeah , woke up at around 4 ish again early this morning... except this time I ignored the stirring of wakefulness and forced myself back to sleep. It worked too! Yoga helped too. It's amazing how much easier it is to get through the day…

LOST CALLING

Okay, I've spoken a little about this book already but now that I've finished it... I'm gonna talk about it some more! :) A little from the actual website: ' The Madonna Key series, launching in July 2006, consists of seven Silhouette Bombshells recounting the adventures …

Thinkin' about writing...

Yeah, I thought I'd post something a little earlier today. The hubby gets out of work earlier nowadays and with my daughter home she starts asking for snacks at around 3:30pm - when I usually start my post. Anyway. Since I haven't done much writing during the last few weeks, I'…

Not much writing goin' on

Yeah, I haven't even posted a real post all week, have I? The b-day weekend was really nice. Relaxing, fun and filled with reading. Pretty much the same now. I'm about 60 pages into the first Madonna Key book, Lost Calling . So far so good. Catrina Dauvergne isn't your conve…

80s Wednesday

You all remember this guy? LOL -- it's none other than ALF ! I used to love watching this sitcom. And even though looking back I can remember just how corny and silly it was, it was still fun for a kid to watch. I'm not sure I could sit through any of the episodes today, but t…

DAUGHTER OF THE FLAMES

The cover for this book is absolutely gorgeous, don't you think? I read the blurb for this book ages ago and have been waiting im patiently for it since. It was released in June in the US, so I ordered it online and got it a week later... but by then I was in the middle of writing my…

ELEVEN ON TOP

I've been waiting a whole year to read this book. So it was no wonder that on Friday morning I found myself grabbing it off the bookshelf and getting stuck into it. There are a whole bunch of other books that have been waiting longer, but Stephanie Plum won out. And it didn't di…

80s Wednesday

I went through a lot of phases as a kid and teenager... especially when it came to music. I slipped from one genre into another pretty quickly, but the phase I stayed in the longest and still enjoy listening to today is hard rock . There was a lot of teased hair and hairspray. Some of…

TOUCH THE DARK

Okay , I've been meaning to read this book for several weeks. I even read the first three chapters... but like always, when I get stuck into a first draft I get so involved that reading takes a backseat. I got stuck into this book during the weekend and finished it this morning. I ha…
