Random News
Frost just announced that books 3 and 4 of the Night Huntress series will soon be made into audio books. Most of us have already read the series, but this is good news for those of you who like to listen while driving.
Personally, I think I'd drive into a ditch because I wouldn't be able to pay attention to the road while thinking about Bones. =)
Also, Kim Harrison's Dead Witch Walking is only $0.99 on the kindle right now.

ahah so true!

Lol. I like to listen to my audiobook while soaking in the tub. I hook my mp3 up to a pair of speakers and it's usually pretty loud since I like to constantly add hot water to my bath which makes a lot of noise. A couple weeks ago I was listening to Succubus Blues and I guess I wasn't expecting this kind of sex scene. It was so loud and I wasn't sure if my husband or the kids could hear, so I jumped out and stopped it, lol. I haven't listened to one while in the bath again. Not that I read that many adult type books, I mostly read YA fantasy, but still, it was weird.

My CD player in my car broke so I gave up on the audios. I tried it because I have the urge to read while driving. I always put my books in the trunk to take away the temptation.

I have an mp3 player, but it doesn't work for books on tape. It plays all the sections that start with a number 1 first, then the number 2's. It never goes 1 2 3... It's screwy. =)

Oh, I had one that did that. You have to change the numbers so they go from 001, 002, 003, 004, 005, 006, 07, 008, 009, 010, 011, etc... Otherwise it will play 1, 11, 110...
I did that, but it was on something that wouldn't let me reformat. The stupid thing takes the original name for some reason and doesn't accept them even if I've renamed the files.
It was something my mother bought me as a gift. I wouldn't have picked it out. I should get a new one, but I don't use them enough to justify it. Maybe I'll put my old shower radio in the car. That'd be funny.

Jasmine, prepare to jump up and down and if you didn't already know...
Cassandra Clare did sell the rights to her books to be made into movies and they are working on a screenplay. Although nothing will be official until the studios decide to actually use the screenplay, the thought seems to be that a movie should surface around 2012. Obviously, that's if things go as planned. Things can get put on a back burner or sped up. (Remember MTV sold Twilight and everyone dropped out of the funding. If Summit hadn't taken the chance and backed it independently - something they'd never done before - it never would have been made.)
Also, Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol and J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit are planned for release in 2012.

Eh? Lol, jump up and down for what? I'm confused, because we were talking about MP3's and whatnot...what should I be excited about? =/

I'm excited for that, as long as they don't kill it...like I think that Twilight was horrible, and I haven't watched the movie Blood and Chocolate, but I hear that it didn't stay with the story line at all...I always get worried when I hear that a book is going to be made into a movie because a lot of the time the movie is such a big let down...

Actually, I prefer the Lord of the Rings movies to the books. The same with A Walk To Remember. Mostly though, the books always kick the movies a$$. I love the Potter movies, even though I miss seeing some of my favorite moments left out or changed. I also love the Twilight movies, but I HATE the costume and makeup in both films! What is up with the wigs and makeup? Seriously. And Edward dresses nice in the books, he doesn't look like an average Joe. LOVED the wolves in NM though. They rocked and the part with them hunting Victoria was great.
I just pray that when TMI is casted that they choose wisely. If Jace is not "Jace" it will be horrible. I soooo have that Alex dude in my mind now for Jace since he is what most people use in vids and fanart. So it will be hard to see somebody else play him.
Carrie - I liked the dress was a little better in New Moon, but the wigs were bad. That stupid blue coat in Twilight drove me crazy. Well, both blue coats I guess.
As for LOTR, I thought the first book and movie were both equally great. The other two movies I loved too, but not as much.

I think they got it at the last minute if I remember from them talking in the features. It was like a 20 dollar dress.And when I said dress I just meant clothes. Apparently I destroyed that sentence by combining two trains of thought together and then not going back to edit it before posting.




Yeah! We never had HBO, but my husband just got it. Thanks for the info Steph. I was getting ready to go searching for any new information and you saved me time.

I don't know how to put pictures in a review, so here's the link for it- http://www.goodreads.com/book/photo/7...
FYI: The new Succubus book is a soft release so you can order it from the University Bookstore (same one from the Succubus books) if you'd like. She's signing copies if you want them and then they're being sent out as she finishes them. Just read her instructions if you're interested. http://blue-succubus.livejournal.com/... If you order a second book that you've been craving you'll get free shipping since it'll put you over the 20 dollar mark.


I'm actually a little annoyed about this book. I wish she would just let the series go, I feel like she's milking it for all it's worth. I know some people will be ecstatic about the release of the back story to Bree, but I'm not really interested in it. I'm not sure if I will read it or not...I don't see myself ever buying it though.
I know Meyer doesn't know if she will ever finish Midnight Sun, and she was upset over the leak of the partial draft, but still, I'd much rather her finish writing that then write a story on Bree.
One dollar will go to the Red Cross for every book sold, so that's nice. I just think Meyer needs to move on, or finish Midnight Sun. This book seems so random...when I saw it all I thought was "wtf?"



Wasn't the temporary cover just a cover with some feathers that said "coming out...", or something like that?
I like this one more, lol.

The Fallen movie was apparently an ABC Family special. Apparently it's based on some series called THE FALLEN, not FALLEN - which is what it advertised on the back. Cheesy, but if you like ABC family movies then watch it. If not, steer clear. I guess there's 3 parts, but I'm missing the middle of the series.


I found the narrator to be really good!
They're not good. It's the typical ABC Family movie. I'd watch it if it were that or infomercials, but I'd sooner watch reruns of MASH or something.

There are some that are bad movies, but we love them anyway. If they're entertaining we can overlook the horrible directing and editing. The angels make you want to laugh in this one. Every time they try to fly you're trying not lose it. They didn't have enough money to make the special effects worth it. Stephan is cute so you could probably handle it. (What is that boys real name?)
