He's pretty cool, isn't he? <br /><br />Daphne is awesome. I've been slowly trying to acquire all of her books and pretty much failing. Some of them are long since out of print. But, my Thanksgiving binge was obviously pretty productive for DuMaurier acquisition! :) I loved the two books I read by Connie Willis, so I'm really excited to have found more.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-63455738398690353562010-12-01T20:50:57.353-06:002010-12-01T20:50:57.353-06:00That's a pretty cool photo of the Golden Drill...That's a pretty cool photo of the Golden Driller. Never heard of that but then again I don't think I've been to Tulsa :)<br /><br />Glad to hear you had a great holiday and you got books! Isn't Daphne great? I need to read more of her books. I just know I'm going to love them all. I've only read one Connie Willis but need to check out more of her books too.<br /><br />Enjoy all of your loot!Ilianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026669671843769219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-72284916976265415592010-11-29T09:55:32.585-06:002010-11-29T09:55:32.585-06:00Amanda,

And, he's one of the tallest free-standing statues in the United States. I had to go check him out and ponder the building behind him because he's in a rather crucial scene in The Reapers are the Angels (zombie lit) and I thought the author took some liberties. I'm pretty sure I've settled on the stance that a little artistic license didn't hurt but I'm tempted to pull the book back out for a reread.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-64621874638358237582010-11-29T09:21:13.718-06:002010-11-29T09:21:13.718-06:00Library Girl,

I guess I'll find out. :) If I remember right, Sherrilyn was still writing as Kinley MacGregor when she lived in Mississippi, but it's been quite a while since she moved away so I'm not sure. I tried a couple of her historicals and a contemporary romance but just couldn't get into them and I don't recall why. Things change, though, so maybe I'll like her writing better, now. I'm a brand new Kelley Armstrong fan and so bummed that I didn't succeed in getting the first book. I looked for Bitten, though, knowing a friend read it and liked it. No such luck. None of the stores I visited apparently carry the entire series.<br /><br />Kathy,<br /><br />I know! That's at least a month's worth of books for this reader. <br /><br />I think it can be safely said that Isabel pretty much always has mischief on her mind. She's a great companion for Fiona, though, because Fi is still a kitten at heart and gets kind of bored when there's nobody to play with her. I just fetched them from the vet's, about an hour ago, and they've been taking turns chasing each other. They're obviously very happy to be back together and with room to run!Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-26486572104352425062010-11-29T09:09:47.190-06:002010-11-29T09:09:47.190-06:00The Golden Driller?!?

And I used to love Sh...Oh, I love Kelley Armstrong. And I used to love Sherrilyn Kenyon - I sort of gave up on her after she built things up (and built things up, and built things up) for Acheron's story and then when his book was finally published it turned out to be...kind of boring. And his heroine didn't seem to be all that different from any other heroine in the series. <i>Night Play</i>, one of her earlier books, was one of my guilty pleasures. I also enjoyed several of the books she wrote as Kinley MacGregor - I remember one (<i>Born in Sin</i>, I think) that had a hilarious (I hope it was supposed to be hilarious) faking of virginal blood on the marriage bed. I'm not a stickler for historically accurate historical romance, though, and I'm not sure any of her historicals would work for anyone who was.A Library Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06144279685884011943noreply@blogger.com
