    Hi, I am Denise and I have just started up the group Rigmarole. It is a group that is actually a game where you start a story and write as much as you want of it and then leave it for other people to complete it. Please stop by and check it out, thanks!

    I am excited. I gave myself permission to go pick my books for the Fall reading challenge. Did you do that yet? Are you going to participate in it.

    Oh no problem, we have some wonderful books and group(s) in common. I still have to read two books for the summer romance reading challenge. I have both books here though. So thats a good thing. I am going to read " Blue DAhlia" by Nora Roberts for my flower book. Then for the one reminding you of summer I am going to read "The Sun Witch" by Linda Winstead Jones. Hoping those books cut the mustard. =)~ Happy Reading!

    Dear Emeraldfire: I'm from Massachusetts but, unfortunately, haven't been to the Cape in a while. I know a young Irish woman you might be interested in meeting. She is the main character in my debut novel HUNTING THE KING. She's from Boston and her name is Molly O'Dwyer. Molly was five years old when she witnessed her mother die in a fire. She never knew her father. After her mother’s death, she was raised on the campus of a Jesuit college. Now an archaeologist, she has been recruited to participate on a dig in war torn Iraq. As a scientist she is compelled to discover whatever or whoever is buried under the sands of ancient Babylon. As an observant Catholic, she is scared that whatever she finds will have devastating consequences for her faith. There is a wonderful YouTube book trailer well worth watching if you have the chance. If you do get to see, please let me know what you think. Thanks. Peter

    Woops you didn't read "Date me Baby One more time". You read the Overlord's Bride. *baps self in forhead. I made the mistake of looking at your shelf and you convinced me with your reviews to add more to my TBR shelf. *sighs

    *sprinkles you with fairy dust and skips of singing........

    Eclectic Book Club Peeps:

    All righty, let's have those nominations for our next big read. What's everyone in the mood for?

    Post your selections in the "Genres" thread and we'll hash it out. If that takes too much energy, I will put all genres nominated in a hat and pick one at random!
