Yes I'm watching the MTV movie awards - there has been lots of RPatz yumminess...he has won best fight, best kiss, best breakthrough actor. The most exciting part is the official New Moon Trailer has been released!!What do we think of Jacob as a werewolf? He seemed a bit small in wolf form. I liked the special effect of him turning into a wolf though. Continue Reading

A Thank You
I wanted to give a thank you to Alaine and those at Royal Reviews for this lovely blog award. There are so many bloggers out there that inspire me everyday to write and to read. Isn't that what is great about this romance blog community? Everyday I get on my google reader (seriously can not live without it!) and I read funny, thought provoking, silly and intriguing posts about authors, books, bloggers lives and the romance world in general. I often find myself giggling, writing down book Continue Reading
May Reading List
I can't believe it is June already (well, in two days). I think I say that at the end of every month, but it really does not feel like summer yet. Of course, once I think it feels like summer it will be the end of August and then I will say, I can't believe fall is almost here. Then it will snow and I will say where did winter come from? Then it will be spring and well...you get my point. I have some serious obsession with the weather. I have to know the forecast every morning and if I have the Continue Reading
Wicked Lovely – Melissa Marr
Wow. That is really the only coherent word my brain can come up with to describe this book. I am now a Melissa Marr fangirl. Keenan, The Summer King and head of all of the summer fey, needs to find his match, the Summer Queen. For centuries he has been searching for her to help bring warmth and summer back to all the faeries that belong to him. Keenan's mother is the Winter Queen, a cold hearted ruler that is stronger than Keenan and as a result her coldness has been slowly integrating into Continue Reading
Thursday Things – New Moon pics from set and Awards
It is Thursday, right? I have been away from the computer world for two days and I feel totally out of it. I just finished Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr and it was exceptional. I am going to post my thoughts on it tomorrow once my brain stops buzzing with excitement.A friend of mine just sent me pictures taken from the New Moon production site. It appears to be the scene at the end of New Moon where Edward is about to reveal himself as a vampire. I really hope they do the "sparkle" better this Continue Reading
My Wicked Enemy – Carolyn Jewel
I decided to read this book for two reasons. First, I read Scandal by Carolyn Jewel in February and thought it was one of the finest historical romance books I had read in quite a long time. This book introduced me to the author. Secondly, I have been seeing a lot of buzz about Forbidden Desire, the second in this paranormal series and because I get the shakes if I don't read books in order, I had to read My Wicked Enemy first.Nickodemus, sex on a stick warlord, has a to-do list, number three Continue Reading
Mailbox Monday
First of all, Happy Memorial Day!!My husband has off work today..whoohoo. Friends of ours just had a little baby boy which I get to go hold in a little while. Inhale all that baby deliciousness and get my fix:)Meanwhile, thought I would do a Mailbox Monday post.I bought the first four books in Kelly Armstrong's Women of the Otherworld series. I know I am totally late getting to this series. Bitten by Books recently had a poll to vote for your favorite shapeshifter couple and Clay and Elena were Continue Reading
JR Ward Chat Transcript!
Here is what I learned off the transcript - you can read it at her message boards here. I just wrote the list as it came out of the chat..sorry if it is a bit unorganized:) There are spoilers so beware! (I don't think anything too big though *g*)- Wrath will remain blind- John Matthew and Darius are the same person (think we already knew that *g*)- Manny and Butch are related - Butch's dad was a surgeon, Manny is a surgeon (not father/son though)- series is open ended as long as we keep Continue Reading
Blue Diablo – Ann Aguirre
I have seen this book pop-up time and time again on various blogs, so I finally got my act together and read it. Ann Aguirre is a new author to me, but after reading this book she has been added to my auto-buy list! Corine is a handler, someone who can hold an object and see a glimpse into the past - it captures whatever the last person who held it experienced. She was not born as one though, her mother passed on her gift to Corine as she was brutally burned to death. As a consequence, every Continue Reading
JR Ward, Nalini Singh, Ilona Andrews
Unfortunately, I could not get into the JR Ward chat last night. I tried along with a couple hundred (at least) other people and the chat room was frozen forever and then we all got locked out. I think a chat actually occurred, not sure with how many people:) So I will have to wait for the transcript to come out in a few days to find out what happened. Her message board was filled with so many people unhappy that they were frozen out. It was kind of funny towards the end. I don't think the Continue Reading
