“You watch yourself,” I said, wishing I had something to stand on to bring my eyes level with his. “When you are broken and mourning your fall from grace, I will consume your shadow in my own, and laugh at your misery.”

Spensa has the best lines!!!

She wasn’t a bad teacher—she didn’t treat me much differently from the other students, and she hardly ever scowled at me. I kind of liked her, even if her daughter was a creature of distilled darkness, worthy only of being slain so her corpse could be used to make potions.

LOL, I'm totally loving how bloodthirsty Spensa is :-D

"Whoa, would you look at my package!" Jim stopped next to the door, doubled over as it looked at its groin. "I'm a demon studmuffin! The babes are going to love me—oh yes they are!'

LOL, best demon dog ever!!! I want a Jim....

Something flashed deep in his dark green eyes. "Are you unwell? You aren't going to vomit on me, are you?"
"That wasn't on my list of planned activities for the afternoon, no, but if you really insist, I suppose I could try for a hairball or something."

LOL, Aisling sure is funny ;-D

Finally, it's here!!! My most anticipated book of the year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Marion must be the most idiotic or naive heroine to ever live - how can she not see how evil Konig is???!!

I absolutely LOVED this article and I just had to post the link here.

12 Things about being a woman that women won't tell you

“I’ve been sixteen for almost as long as you’ve been alive, and my boyfriend’s parents used to feel that way about me,” I reply. “I guess they were right. I went and died on the boy I loved, and that can’t have been good for him.”

That is SO sad!!!!! :-(

Even if everyone is born the same way, every death is different...

Those final experiences shape them as much as anything they knew in life. Still, for most people, that sort of thing is a temporary concern. They’re born, they die, and they pass through the ghostroads like shooting stars, leaving only contrails and broken hearts behind them.

Seanan McGuire writes so beautiful......

I was alive, and then I wasn’t. Someday, they’ll say the same thing about everyone. Someday, they’ll say the same thing about you.

This book starts so good....

“So Lyle Lyle got a job. I enlisted him as a boob friend. I slept with him every night, and he delivered complete and utter boob comfort.”
That lucky fucking inanimate animal. “I want to grow up to be a stuffed crocodile.”

LOL, so far this book is hilarious! :-D

Wishing all my GR friends a very happy new year!! May your 2017 be filled with many happy memories and great books! :-)

Wishing all my GR friends a wonderful joyful Christmas!! May your stockings be filled with books ;-)

Damn, this is a fabulous UF series!! I am SO loving it so far....

“Cookies do make everything better,” he muttered, grudgingly agreeing with me. “Even paranoid, secretive assassin bosses.”

LOL, I have missed Silvio's dry sarcasm :-D

In our terms, you are a baby and I am robbing the cradle.”
Elena stepped into the humid warmth of one of her favorite places on the earth. “Rob away, Archangel.”

LOL :-D I love these two together!

”I’ve never been drawn to someone the way I am to you, and I have been from the very first moment I met you. It’s like the difference between… between reading about gravity and then falling for the first time.”

*swoon* I freaking love Daniel!! Please let her end up with him, I really need a beta hero as a love interest for a change.

“My wife liked money. Ex-wife.”
“I’m sorry to hear that.”
He sighed again and closed his eyes. “It broke my heart.”

Aww, he sounds like such a nice guy. It just doesn’t make sense for him to be a bad guy. This book is definitely very different from anything I've read by this author, but I'm liking it....

She wanted to dance with him, be a woman in the arms of a man who made every part of her awaken in a hunger she’d never expected to feel and who, for this magical moment, was hers.
His jaw, heavy with stubble, rubbed against her temple again as he shifted his hold to press her closer. Then, as the music played, as the night grew softer and quieter, they danced.
*swoon* I love this chapter....

Hawke and Sienna time!!!!!

Hawke’s wolf was scraping at the insides of his skin now, his vision starting to blur. “And stay out of my way while you’re here.” The order came out harsh as the edge of a rusted blade.
Sienna’s face went white even as fury tightened the corners of her mouth. “Don’t worry. I didn’t come back to see you.”

I freaking love the tension between these two!!! Can't wait to read the next book again :-D

It was hard, so fucking hard, to pretend this was only a game, to play with her, when all he wanted to do was bury his face in her neck and just . . . be.

Awww, I just love Drew.....

“I won’t take any other woman into my heart.” He pressed a finger to her lips when distress colored her eyes. “I’ll wait for you to find me again. So don’t take too long.”

This book has wrecked me completely. All I want to do is go sit in a corner and cry like a baby! :-( Now I need a cheesy romance and some mint ice cream.....

“Will you forgive me, Ingrede? For what I must do?”
“You fight a battle.” Her hand touching his cheek. “You do this to protect us. There is nothing to forgive.”

*sobs* This book is KILLING me!!!! The things done to Dmitri! How this poor man survived, is beyond me. I should have known Nalini would make me love him, and understand why he is the way he is.

“Someday,” she said in a voice as serene as a high mountain lake, “I’m going to break your neck. Then I’m going to saw it off with a hacksaw so I can take my time.”
Venom’s grin creased his cheeks. “I knew you had it in you, kitty.”

LOL, I'm loving these two.

“I don’t intend to break you, Honor.” The harsh edge replaced by black silk, sinful and tantalizing as the rich scent of chocolate seeped into her very bones. “I intend to seduce you.”
