Nichole & Krissy - Grave Peril

Checking in. I have to listen to the second book before I get to this one

Sounds good. I'm on the waiting list anyways- next in line.

I am almost done with the 2nd book. I only have this audio for another 6 days so I'll have to get to it soon.

Mine came in and I have it for 12 more days.

I plan on starting this tomorrow morning

Okay! I should be able to finish one of mine tonight so I can start this tomorrow too. I'll be switching back and forth though so it might take me a little bit.

I didn't finish my book last night but I did this morning. I won't be able to listen at work today but I'll be starting it this evening!

I still have a couple hours of The Monster of Florence left so I'll start this when I'm done

Okay, it's been a while since I read the last book. Who is Michael and who is Susan, lol?

Susan is the reporter that he is sleeping with. Michael... I'm not sure.

Okay, I was thinking it was the reporter chick but couldn't really remember.

I haven't gotten very far because I keep trying to finish that other book up so I can concentrate on this one. Geez, it's long and never ending... I'm at 86% and have it bumped to 2x speed now but I have to go into work for a few hours. Will be finished today though and can concentrate on this one tonight.

Apparently I've really forgotten a lot, lol. I don't remember much or anything about his Godmother...

No rush. Don't overwhelm yourself. This thread isn't going anywhere. I'll finish up today mainly because it has to be returned to the overdrive library in the morning.

If you don't remember anything about his godmother that's cool. Neither do I. I don't think she was mentioned much in the first 2 books.

Oh good, at least I'm not alone with that! I've been on the fence with this series. I always hear about how awesome it is but while I enjoyed the first 2 books I wasn't exactly in a hurry to continue. However, I was told that this book was the one that hooks you and they get really good from this point on. We shall see!

So next week I need to read an MM book, a book with an athlete or one that makes a phone call and well I can't remember what the 3rd book task is... wanna go for Something Like Summer? Or do you have anything thing else you want to read that works? I'm mostly caught up, I just can't keep reading these long books, lol. I don't have the attention span for them. Not this one, but the others I've been reading, lol.

I'm good with reading Something Like Summer. Just let me know when you want to start it.


And this book is pretty intense so far. I'm liking it. I think it's better to go in as if the series is new to you. If you sit there and overthink every time somebody is mentioned trying to remember who is who then it'll ruin the book for you. Don't stress it. Just let it be what it is. If they say godmother then just take that as face value. It's his godmother now let's move on. If you try to wrack your brain trying to remember any mention of her or what scenes she was a part of in the last books then you will totally pull yourself out of the current story and ruin the rhythm. Just go with the flow, gurl.

Yeah, I'm not trying that hard, lol. The only thing I really remember about the last book is it had werewolves... the first one had a warlock. That's all I've got :) Okay, gonna finish this other book!

@ 48%- This nightmare thing is scar-y!!

Hell yea it is! The author is very good at painting a very gory picture

JB is good at painting pictures period. Such a good series.

So I was able to listen to quite a bit at work today. Unfortunately I couldn't post stuff when I wanted to and now I'm sure I'll have forgotten some of it. Man, this had a lot going on!

82%- (view spoiler)[ First let me say that I was and still am completely heartbroken over Michael's wife and baby. I really hope that things turn out okay for them :(

Secondly, a freaking dragon!! That was unexpected and so awesome! So, dragon dude and Harry didn't exactly mesh but whatever- Dragon!

The part- wow lots going on there! At first, I was like who is this Thomas dude and do we like him? I was thinking he would turn out to be a good ally and then he kind of screwed that up. Grrr! And now he's back but I've got my eye on that guy.

And Lean- she's a weird one! She's bad but then she saved Harry so maybe she isn't as bad as I thought. Nope, she's all bad and just wants Harry to be her little pet. Creeper!

And then what's her name...Susan (oops), gave up a year of memories to save Harry. That was sweet but I knew that she wouldn't remember Harry. That was a given, lol. And now he's going back to get her. I have a feeling that's the end of their relationship. Oh well, I wasn't tied to her because I barely even remember her, lol.

Umm, some other stuff too that I can't recall at the moment :P (hide spoiler)]

Oh yeah, so I got my audio copy from the library and every once in a while it does the whole - insert disc 3-. It's kind of jarring and takes me out of the story for a minute since I'm not even listening to it on discs, lol. Just a little meaningless rant that has nothing to do with the actual story which I'm really enjoying!

Thanks, Penni! Good to know :)

89%- (view spoiler)[ Okay, now I feel like a douche because they turned Susan... I'm pretty sure that I'm going to hell with my sunny personality, lol. (hide spoiler)]

Btw, I finished! I really liked this one. And I definitely want to read more from this series. This was action-packed almost from the very first page. On to the next one! Well not right now but soon :)

I also listened to the library copy and had to deal with the insert disc interruptions. Lol. And I have to say this book was definitely my favorite of the series. I'm excited to read more. I'll probably try to squeeze one more in this month

Oh! I might join you if I'm able to. Work has been a little wonky lately and I don't think that's changing anytime soon. Sooo....

Or not, lol. I'm on the waiting list!
