Hi to all of my GR friends,
Sorry if I monopolize the thread a tiny bit : I have several months of reads to list. Yep, lot of catch up after such a long absence on GR, only doing some stealthy snooping once in a while.
Hope you're all doing well, at least as well as possible and that you stumbled on as many good reads as possible.
Cheers to you all !!!!

Hi, my GR friends !!! I've been quite away these past months and I hope that this is it and can spend time again chatting with you : I missed the fun of reading your reviews and commenting.
On the other hand, my TBR is grateful of this break, bwahhh !!!!
I hope that RL treats you well enough and that your reading world has been good to you.
Cheers to you all !!!!

"Prometheus smiled handsomely with his fucking handsome face and his well-trimmed beard and his ridiculous kind eyes and seriously, fuck that guy."

Yep, Cadiva wrote that it was her favorite book from this series and so far, I have no reason to doubt that : a touch of humor is always good for me. Go on, Lach, keep being ridiculously fucking jealous, hehehe !!

Starting 2019 with reading the Death and the Devil series : STRIKE number ONE!!
And now, Bo and Lucky, at their best, once again…: STRIKE number TWO !!
Fun, hotness, twists,…I’m in bliss…

And cherry on top of the cake, BR with my besties, yeah !!!

Happy New Year !
¡Feliz año nuevo!
Frohes neues Jahr !
Ευτυχισμένο το νέο έτος

ပျော်ရွှင်ဖွယ်နှစ်သစ်!
Gelukkig nieuwjaar!

And of course…Très bonne année 😘❤ **My best wishes to you all**

Nooooooooooo…..

After everything that happened, I thought time for hope was finally there, even when nearing the 70% mark when everything usually goes to shit.

WRONG, SO WRONG.

Dear Barbara Elsborg, I'm begging you to make it right for these guys...

“I have to help him.”
“You can but not by running away with him”.
He sagged. “Then what can I do”.

Damned, Barbara Elsborg, if your goal was to drown me into a bucket of despair, you can be proud of you : it took only 13% to succeed.

”Hell if he knew why both he and the sergeant needed to be rostered on for [Bingo night]. It wasn’t exactly Cavill avenue on a Friday night in Schoolies Week, and the Richmond Catholic Ladies’ Auxiliary wasn’t exactly a horde of rampaging teenagers hopped up on booze and testosterone.”

Hehehe, that’s quite the sight !!! Hesitating between shivering and laughing.

”He was 38, not dead, but right now he felt exactly as old as Taylor had thought he was the day Taylor had discovered Jason had grown up without the internet. And mobile phones”

**snort** I can so relate, LOL !!

In a very, very pissed-off mood right now !!!

OK, let’s give another try as it seems I’m past the most gruesome graphic violence…

”When it came down to it, they were all just men. One a rapist, another a torturer”

I’m going to forget about this disturbing start and keep in mind Vir’s comment : “once those obstacles were overtaken, I was up for one hell of a ride” !!...oh, oh, oh, the faith I have in my GR friends !!

Disturbing : the beginning of course and the writing. That's a lot to take for me.

I'm not giving up (Vir got into it at 20%, so I want to go much further), but I need a breather with something either entertaining or fluffy !!

Because Bossy Jan and Shile ordered me so....
OK, it may also have to do with a case of fan-girling for AV.

So much out of comfort zone : please, dear book, be good to me !!

Simone and Josy spilled the beans : we are spending our week-end together in Amsterdam. Of course, we are going to talk a lot, maybe even about you ;-)
Enjoy your week-end, my friends !!!!!

Argh...RL very demanding right now. Please, don't unfriend me yet : I promise to be back soon chatting with you. Meanwhile, enjoy reading on my behalf !!!

Another BR with my partners in crime and whoever wants to join us !!!!

It shouldn't be that way, but here I am :-(

"You can be sympathetic to the pain, but you don't have to feel it."

Sound advice !!!

A break-up and a slow investigation...I'm struggling :-(

My first "vampire" book...Ô_Ô

Hi everybody,
Not ignoring you, quite the contrary : I miss interacting with you. But I was really sick and even though I'm up again, my attention span is like **Sh...** and my brain is like jelly, LOL.
Slow, slow, slow process to go over the feed but so glad to be there again :-)

My warmest wishes to you, my GR friends <3



Happy New Year, Feliz año Nuevo, Frohes neues Jahr.
And of course : "Trés belle année !!!"

To you all, I wish you a happy Holiday season, full of love, friendship...and great books. Cheers to you all <3

End of a short scene spent in a Parisian restaurant : please, dear authors, when you don’t know about foreign food, don’t make up details that don’t add anything but surely are cringe-worthy :-(
At least, no mention of accordion : I should take that as a win…

So far, so good, but really, who chose this cover ?? It's a real crime :-(

Yeah : another BR with Josy and Simone, with a new author to me.

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Yeah : another BR with my besties Karen, Josy and Simone. I'm so ready to drool all over Sven :-)

To all my GR friends who are lucky enough to attend the 2017 GRL : have a great time together and with all the great authors participating.
Of course, all the details about this great event are welcome :-)

O.M.G. My heart rate is out of control...I don't want to know...but I have to !!!

Having gone so far, I should be able to finish it, shouldn't I ?...maybe not :-(
