  Crossing Jordan 

  New Title

  

  Completed the 2nd book in the Van Halen Legacy 'Masquerade'. Now I'm waiting to read the 3rd book 'Revelations'. Masquerade, was an awesome read. A part of me keeps hoping that Sky will choose Oliver instead of Jack. I'm way for the red blood. I was a bit annoyed with Sky's snobbery as she prefers Jack to Oliver. She doesn't appreciate what she has and that makes me mad!! real mad!! makes me want to slap her at times. *sigh* and then I realize she is only a character in a book!!, that doesn't stop the urge to slap her though! lolz! :D

  I finished reading Shaw's tail by Laurenston!. 2 words, hubba! hubba!. Steamy read! tons of humour and I'm beginning to think all of her books have tons of humour in them which is why I'm going to read them ALL!. I strongly recommend 'Mane Event' to all my fellow paranormal romance junkies out there ;-).

  I've also completed Kiss and Kin by Kinsey Holly (Unfortunately, it's not on available on the shelfari database and hence I can't add it to my shelf :-[ ). It's a shifter romance. It's really a good read. Definitely 4 stars out of 5.

  Now, I'm currently still on Jim Butcher's Fool Moon and Rosemary Laurie's Kiss me forever/Love me forever. :-D

  Completed the 3rd book in the Dresden Files by Jim Butcher!!. Book was called 'Grave Peril' and my god what a book it was!. Like I said before while reading it at times I felt like I was on the set of exorcist!!! Man, it was freakishly awesome, especially the van scene, the graveyard scene and the 'costume party' scene!! I was at the edge of my seat the WHOLE darn time!! I kept thinking " oh no!! no! no! no! Harry is NOT going to get out of this one" but then he comes up with the most ridiculous plans and it actually works!!...well, most of the time anyway!! :-D

  I'm dying to find out what happens to Bianca!! And, what about Susan and Karrin?!?!?!?. And, I can't believe Harry finally got the courage to *blah* *yak* *blah* Susan!! =OD

  Apparently I have to wait another 2 days to get the 4th book, 'Summer Knight'. Once again, people who haven't read this series......START READING!!!....NOW!

  Right now I'm getting to the half way mark of the 3rd Van Halen Legacy book, 'Revelations'. Why can't Mimi just get over herself!!. I'm so proud of Sky! she is growing so much in this book. She is much less shy. I still love ollie though! I wonder where Sky would be without him?!? I also wonder what Sky is going to think of the 'BIG' secret Bliss is keeping from her...oh well!!...:-D If what I said doesn't want to make you grab this book off the shelf then, I don't know what will!!!!

  =OD 'nuff said!

  Okay, I'm past the halfway point and by gargoyles, I'm so miffed!!! ]:-/ I'm slowly finding myself leaning towards Mimi's character!!. I REALLY hate Sky at the moment!. Snobbish lil' prick!!! she needs to be taught a lesson or two! I'm sure shes an angel of betrayal or something!. I have steam coming out of my ears and Im on pg 103 and I can't bear to read anymore!. So, now I'm switching to 'Witch's Fire' by Anya Bast before I either jump in to the book and strangle Sky, myself or I burn the book and then stomp on it!. ]:-/

  I finally finished reading the 3rd Van Halen Legacy book, 'Revelations'. Man, I went from loving Sky, to hating her guts to pitying her sorry soul!. And, damn!! little did I know who the 'evil' person was!! I never in a million years though it would be THAT character!. Sheesh, I read the last part thrice just to make sure I got it right!. How in the world did everyone miss that tidbit! I mean the signs were there!! they were ALL there...I just never thought.....I mean WOW!!

  And Jack?, gawsh he needs to make up his mind about WHO he wants!!!. I feel he is such a player!!. Anyway, this book was AWESOME!!. I'm glad I didn't give up on it, burn and stomp on it. The ending was such a doozy! I wonder how Sky finds out.....hmm...I'm about to order 4th and the last book in the series and I'm sad that it's the end. :-(

  So far Werewolf Sanctuary is going good! The characters are all intertwined and everyone is connected to everyone else in some way or the other in this book. I love it!! :-D

  Also, I've started on Jim Butcher's Summer Knight!!!. As usual! the man's a genius! read through the few pages and I thought Whoo...the story line is getting darker and darker. But I'll put up more once I'm done. =OD

  I finished reading Scorched by Sharon Ashwood. I liked Ravenous better but I fell in love with 3 characters in Scorched : Ashe (Vampire Slayer), Viktor (Weremutt) and Dragon!!!. Those 3 were so cute!!. I wish there was more of dragon! I like the way the author said he "waddled away" heh heh heh.

  I'm currently reading Bloody Jack book 1 by LA Meyer and Angel's Blood by Nalini Singh. :-D

  Progress Report

  ANGEL'S BLOOD - NALINI SINGH

  Wow, Singh always manages to blow me away! I have an idea in my head of how the story is going to turn out and then the total OPPOSITE happens! I love the way Singh has made the Angels seem 'prone' to the 7 deadly sins =OD. Also, I admire the way she cleverly incorporates vampires in to the picture!. I'm on chapter 8 at the moment and loving...LOVING it so far!. I can't wait to find out what happens at the end. =OD

  Thanks for your great books and greater stories, Ms Singh!!! ;-).

  BLOODY JACK'S ADVENTURES - BOOK I - LA MEYER

  Meyer's Jack is so charming!!. I love her!. It also gives you an in depth picture of what life was like back then, especially for orphans. Although, the story is a piece of fiction, it still has a huge element of truth to it. I'm on chapter 11 and I feel so humbled and grateful for what I have that it just makes me want to hang my head in shame for acting up and being selfish and greedy at times.

  On the other hand, I'm really loving Jack's adventure and I guess 'JACK' has a crush!! :-D Ofcourse then there is Billy's character that makes me want to syke the cops on him! lolz... Im totally enjoying both these books.

  Unfortunately since my work load has doubled, the amount of reading has almost halved!. I'm going to try and stay up till midnight tonight, reading!!. =OP
