I really hope that the comapany will stick around.

Lisarenee | 7659 comments Makes me wonder about the future of the Nook.


message 5: by Sashana (new)

Sashana I didn't even think of that. I hope the company doesn't go under. Ebooks and amazon are great but you can never replace that feeling you get when you walk into a bookstore.


message 6: by Katherine (new)

Katherine I love walking around in the bookstore plus holding it in my hands while I'm reading. That would be so sad.

Lauren | 931 comments I love Barns and Nobel. Please don't leave me! Wah :(

Sashana Hey Guys. I have another one for you. I wouldn't call this one news though. Harper Teen is allowing us to read the first 9 chapters of a newly relased book, Paranormalcy, for a limited time.

Here's the link.

Sashana This one goes out to all of you Richelle Mead lovers (guilty!). Richelle recent posted an excerpt from her new book, Kisses from Hell, on her blog, website, and on her facebook fan page. The story is called Sunshine and it's about Lissa's parents. Enjoy!

Sashana Okay guys, there are a few Mockingjay giveaways going on and I wanted to share the links. They’re a long shot but they’re worth a try. Good luck :)

Lauren | 931 comments Woah! Cool :)


message 13: by Sashana (new)

Sashana I know :)


message 14: by Heather (new)

Heather | 504 comments Oh that's cool! A friend of mine let me a copy of hers from Blow Me Down by Katie MacAlister.


message 15: by Sashana (new)

Sashana Was it any good Heather?


message 16: by Heather (new)

Heather | 504 comments Yeah, actually it was good. The hero was an average guy which made it 'real'. Know what I mean? I have that one, plus others but I'll be giving them away once I move as I'll need to make room..

Lisarenee | 7659 comments ****************PATRICIA BRIGGS NEWS********************
I knew Briggs was republishing Masques and it's coming out in October, but I just saw she is also coming out with Wolfsbane (Aralorn, 2) in November. It's the sequel to Masques. I'm so excited! YAY!


message 18: by Sashana (new)

Sashana Thanks Lisarenee. I love Briggs

message 20: by Sans (new)

Sans Awesomesauce, thanks Sashana!


message 21: by Sashana (new)

Sashana No prob, Sans.


message 22: by Sashana (new)

Sashana So thanks to Twilight, the movie industry is on the prowl for the next "big" movie. Surprisingly they chose a book that has been published for less than a month! I haven't read it yet so I'm passing no judgment but my gosh that was quick! The book is Firelight and you can read more at http://popwatch.ew.com/2010/09/21/you...


message 23: by Heather (new)

Heather | 504 comments Sashana, what is the book about? I saw the article but couldn't see where they actually talked about what the book was about..


message 24: by Sashana (new)

Sashana Well, I haven't read it yet, but I know it's about shifters who turn into Dragons. Unique much?


message 25: by Lisarenee (last edited Sep 23, 2010 12:34PM) (new)

Lisarenee | 7659 comments I looked it up. It's about a girl who I think can change into a dragon. If you look on amazon they have a Book Trailer:

http://www.amazon.com/Firelight-Sophi...

Also, if you look at the cover the girl has some scales on her face.

message 26: by Heather (new)

Heather | 504 comments Hmm, damn, now another book I'll have to add to the library!! Sigh...


message 27: by Sashana (new)

Sashana I feel your pain, Heather lol.


message 28: by Lisarenee (new)

Lisarenee | 7659 comments It's not at my library yet.


message 29: by Sashana (new)

Sashana Mine either, but I'm pretty sure they'll get it soon


message 30: by Heather (new)

Heather | 504 comments I just found (cause it was buried) a list of books that caught my attention! Oh holy crap!

Where is the list?


message 32: by Lisarenee (new)

Lisarenee | 7659 comments No, more importantly is what was on it. ;)


message 33: by Heather (new)

Heather | 504 comments Hmm, won't tell ya cause you will LOL at me! Needless to say, watching Hoarders has been very inspiring so I am cleaning up my area around my laptop. When I get it straight, I'll post it!

My library has it on order. Currently says I should get it in 11 days. It sounds interesting.


message 35: by Heather (new)

Heather | 504 comments Damn, checked my library and they don't have it. Will request it and have to wait forever..


message 36: by Lisarenee (new)

Lisarenee | 7659 comments I just ordered it! :)


message 37: by Heather (new)

Heather | 504 comments OK, I e-mailed my guy at the library and he said it was already ordered. I am going to check again and they start yelling!!!!!

Oh yeah, Lisa, speaking of yelling, guess which Kleypas book I have?? Give up? Did you even try to guess??? Mine Till Midnight! Will read it after Maybe This Time (which, BTW, I don't quite like as much as I had hoped I would..)..


message 38: by Lisarenee (new)

Lisarenee | 7659 comments Yay! My favorite Kleypas book. I hope you like it. Too bad about Maybe this Time. I still need to check out Jennifer Crusie. I have an anthology with a story from her in it. Maybe I'll start with that.


message 39: by Heather (new)

Heather | 504 comments Heh-heh, yeah, I thought you would like that. I also finally got the notice from the library that No Mercy is ready for pick up. I'll get that tomorrow and then have both books to read after Maybe This Time..


message 40: by Lisarenee (new)

Lisarenee | 7659 comments Kelley Armstrong has a giveaway (a lottery type one) on goodreads going on right now for an ARC of the first book of her new series Darkness Rising The Gathering (Darkness Rising, #1) by Kelley Armstrong . Here's the link:

message 44: by Sashana (new)

Sashana Thanks, Lisarenee. I just bought a copy, what a steal.


message 45: by Lauren (new)

Lauren | 931 comments Wishing I had an ereader!


message 46: by Lisa S (new)

Lisa S (kasey_k_fan) I read the book Firelight. To me it was just another version of Twilight, but with dragons instead of vampires. It was ok, but I've read better.


message 47: by Lisarenee (new)

Lisarenee | 7659 comments Sophie Jordan is a romance writer. I looked her up. So was there a love story in Firelight?


message 48: by Lisa S (last edited Oct 22, 2010 06:49PM) (new)

Lisa S (kasey_k_fan) Yep, but not real romantic. After all it is YA.

message 50: by Lauren (new)

Lauren | 931 comments Really? I have an iPhons but I'm not sure how you do that.
