Uh, I mean I have never read that crappy series. Not ever. Not me.
ROFL The truth has come out at last....-.- you read the series! I tried to read it, I really did but I found the conclusions she reached tedious. The teenage angst was stagey and almost pointless. I got bored.

OK, I admit it. I'm a sucker for vampire stories. I'm a sucker for damsel in distress stories. And this had both. I'll just hang my head in shame now.

I read one page and tossed it across the room. I couldn't even get past that.

I would love to see a similar story, but more adult.

I LOVE the Anita Blake Series though. I love how the character grow, stretch, get powerful beyond powerful, and then completely fuck up their lives with stupid trivialities. The sex is hot but not the focus which is odd since the main character evolves into a complete succubus. I also love that the author unashamedly tells people that she loves to write about sex and mayhem and if they don't like it they are free to boycott her books!

I'm still trying to decide if 50 Shades is worth a look or not.

~pats head It's ok we all have our moments of weakness. I can't really talk since I LOVE Barbara Cartland novels...and I own a whole book case shelf full of them. They are like little pieces of candy fluff so sweet and good.

OMG NO! It is tripe and not the good tasty tripe of high priced restaurants! It is fucking terrible writing with predictable and 1 dimensional characters. I cannot get into chapter 3...I'm just glad i didn't spend money on it.

LOL, yeah, I was wondering if it was worth reading just to say I read it. I guess not! That's the problem with erotica. So much is just crap. Give me hot sex and a good story.

Yep...the only ones I didn't read were the ones released in the middle to late 90's about the teen girls.

Oh, I know! I would totally rewrite the ending to LOTR. I don't know what, but something was missing.

I am not going to have any assigned topic this month...and I'd like to continue the story start from this month. Speaking of which did we award Sneakers her 1,000 points for the story start?

OK, I'm very ashamed to say it because I love the concept of Middle Earth and loved the core story of the books, but eventually I was like, "Geez, are we STILL there talking about several hundred years of history in a place that we're just passing through?"

There actually is a whole new world missing because Tolkien wrote the entire thing backwards. He started with Middle Earth then wrote the Silmarillion which was the precursor to the LOTR and never finished what lead up to our world.

Now I'm doubting my memory. I don't even know. I'm lucky I'm upright with the low amount of caffeine I've had.

On a completely unrelated note, I just learned the word "snollygoster." I'm going to use it in conversation today.

OMG yes! I saw that on a list I use when I write the SexIs articles about Eden Lit. Let us know how it goes when you slip in the new word!
