Blood Bound | Patricia Briggs

An excellent addition to the first in the series!

2 years ago

**Spoiler Alert!** If you plan on reading the book, do not continue reading this review. … Okay, but don’t say I didn’t warn you. The second book in the series, we begin not too far where the first one left off. Stefan, a vampire, calls Mercy for help. A vampire has come to the city but not has not asked Master vampire, Marsilia, for hunting rights. That is vampire law. But Stefan also believes that this is the vampire that hurt his friend Daniel, and he wants to make the vampire pay. B… read review

Back to School! Yipee!

4 years ago

The kids are now back in school ~ and I couldn't be happier! This had been a nightmarish year, and after a particularly crappy spring and even crappier summer, I'm glad the kids are back. For 10 whole weeks, we lacked the monotony of routine, and even though I was never a fan of routine, I miss it when it's gone. Now I'm home at 3pm instead of 6pm, I've got more time to spend with the kids before bed, and more time with hubby, too! I mean, don't get me wrong - the kids spent their summer at … view post

About Me:

I've been a bookaholic since I learned to read, according to my mom. It started with Anne of Green Gables, Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys, and continued with R.L. Stine and Christopher Pike. Since then, I've learned that my fave genre is paranormal, but I read everything exept for non-fiction. A good thriller to keep me up at night or a romantic suspense that make me sigh is the sign of an excellent author. I grew up around the quarter-mile drag strip and love drag racing & muscle cars.
Interests:

Other than books, I adore spending time with my kids and husband. I'm a lover of the Quarter-Mile drag strip and grew up around racing. My dream: to become a published author.
Favourite Books:

I'd have to say Conspiracy in Death and Ceremony in Death by J.D. Robb are my all-time fave books, however, Night Play by Sherrilyn Kenyon is right behind them. Too many to list!
Favourite Movies:

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days has to be one of my fave movies. After that, it's a toss-up between too many to count and not enough room to write them all!
Favourite Music:

Def Leppard State of Shock Daughtry Buckcherry Theory of a Deadman Green Day Simple Plan Nickelback etc...
Favourite Author:

Nora Roberts

Notes

J-9 says:

Well I used to be like that with Laurell K Hamilton, but not any more. I own basically every book by Iris Johansen, i dont have some of the really early ones. I own all the adult books written by Matthew Reilly. Now I am really into the paranomal thing and I find that many of the series or authors haven't written too many yet. I dont think I have any collection that could really compare to all of the books that Roberts has written. How many book shelves do you need to hold them all?
J-9 says:

I dont know if i could narrow down the amount of authors that I love to read, or have those must buys, especially if you are wanting to know from all the genres I like to read.
Though I am always in search for a next great book or series.
You?
J-9 says:

Hi Gina,
Well there are a few genres that I read all the time. Mainly Mysteries Horror and some action adventure types. Though lately I`ve been mainly reading the paranormal books from the first two. How about you?

The night I finished the book, I couldn’t sleep because I so buzzed about it. Myracle creates a tragic setting and challenging story that will stick with you long after you've read it.

Her subtle touches of character descriptions, simple metaphors and setting made me feel like I was still in winter under a blanket of snow, instead of the stifling heat of a summer's day in June.

Do the Seasons or Weather affect what you read?

I was waiting for my husband, picked up a book I had left in the car. It was cold enough the car door was still frozen at 9:30 am when we left. I put myself into the story as I usually do, & came to the sentence ...it had cooled down into the 80s...
