... yet I haven't picked up another book for a few weeks now! I'm just too wrapped up in my own writing, but my fingers are itching to pick something up off the bookshelf. Ah! I'm a little sore at the moment. We did some weights last night and got stuck into some yoga first…

Well, it was Book Week at my daughter's school this week... and I've been writing a lot, plus reading - come on, I love to read. And so, all of this got me thinking and I remembered the Choose Your Own Adventure books I loved as a kid. You guys remember these, right? A litt…

In Pursuit of Prey Sekhmet, Egyptian goddess of feminine sexual heat is on the prowl. Only one man can make her purr. Join her on the hunt for her perfect mate as she seduces Mace with her decadent dance. Feel their pain as their differences dampen their heat, only to be fueled aga…

So I finally finished the first Blood Ties book... I took my time with this one, but it wasn't because I didn't like it. Because I did. I actually liked it a lot. Carrie was a little, I don't know what the best word would be - maybe unsympathetic, sometimes. She'd do thin…

Okay, today I'm picking a song: Pat Benatar's "Love is a Battlefield" , from 1983. I had a really hard time finding any pics for this... Anyway, how cool was this song? Uh , let me revise that, how cool is this song? IMO, it's definitely one of those hits that hol…

Yes, here's some very disturbing news from Harlequin. The brilliant imprint that is BOMBSHELL will no longer be around after February 2007. I personally, being a huge fan of these books, can't understand what went wrong. Well, okay, so I agree with what other fans are saying…

My daughter came home with a swollen and badly grazed face yesterday. It's just below her left eye. Luckily nothing happened to her eye, but the skin's looking really tender and sore. Apparently they were preparing for the Athletics Carnival - which happens to be today - with a pr…

After reading CRESCENT MOON and absolutely loving it, I couldn't wait to get my hands on this one! When it came in last week, I knew it was going to be the next book I picked up... and I did just that last night. I wanted to get started, get to know Priestess Cassandra a little more…

Okay... today's pick isn't actually something that was released in the 80s, but something released recently that focuses on the 80s! It's Singstar '80s. This PlayStation game has a wide variety of very cool songs that I love singin' away to. We actually played it …

I absolutely LOVED this book! Actually, I love this series... it's outstanding. Definitely one of my faves. Anyway, this book goes back to being narrated by Elena Michaels who happens to be the only female werewolf around. She gets caught up paying a favour back to Xavier, which hap…

Ooooops , I almost forgot it's Wednesday today... Ha. Ha. Today I want to briefly talk about teased hair. Yeah, don't cringe or try to pretend you don't know what I'm talking about because anyone who was a teenager during the 80s knows exactly what I mean! And here…

Okay, last night I finally sat down and told myself I would get to the end of this great book! And I did. Wow -- what a cool ride. I gotta say, Harry Dresden is just one of those real-to-life characters. You know the ones that really jump off the page and feel totally real? Yeah, he'…
