REMINDER:
CHATTY CHAT TONIGHT AT WRITERSPACE at 9pm
The instructions to go to that website is in the post below (yesterday's).
**********************************************
Today is the big day of the knee surgery. So if you can send some reader love and sympathy, I'd appreciate it. For me. FOR ME! Because I'm the one who's going to deal with the male pain and carting around of the male in pain AND...and a host of other things. Like, I put a sock on for a grown man the other day. It was a lot harder task than it sounded.
***********************************************
Yesterday, on the job, while talking about hospitals and illness, of course, the roofer with the extraordinary vocabulary chimed in with a tale.
"My girlfriend's mother--grandma, we call her," he said, "is going through that thing where you forget everything at once, what do you call it--I forget..."
"Dementia?" I asked helpfully.
Remember, he's also deaf. "Oh yeah, that's right," he agreed, nodding. "She's dimensional, very demensional. Can't remember a thing."
"No," The Walrus said, "you're dimensional. In fact, you're not even here sometimes."
"That's what I mean. She's not even here. All the time. She's dimensional. I know where I am so I'm not dimensional."
Sigh. Changing socks, talking to sock puppets, what's the difference right?
****************************************
I'm naming five books off the top of my head for this year's Great Reads for me.
No order:
1. C. L. Lewis' Lord of the Fading Lands (strong worldbuilding and a mixture of fairytale and fantasy that made me forget about the Magic Vajayjay theme)
2. Lilith Saintcrow's The Devil's Right Hand (oh, man, she gets better and better!)
3. Elizabeth Hoyt's The Raven Prince (made all the elements that usually make me cringe worked)
4. Keri Arthur's Full Moon Rising (started me on a glom, but I was disappointed after the fourth book...warning: rape galore)
5. Nora Robert's Born In Death (Roarke and Eve so good together)
Your turn. Don't think. The first five books you enjoyed this year that come to your mind.

Good Luck with the Male sympathy while have to help him get dressed, and the slow and tedious healing process. Then the thinking they can do anything and it won't affect them cuz they feel wonderful.

1. Lord of the Fading Lands/Lady of Light and Shadows.
2. Virtually His
3. Scent of Darkness/Touch of Darkness
4. Dark Possession
5. Dream Hunter
Thank you for the good wishes. Alpha Male's operation went well and he has to stay in bed for at least three days, which would make him STINKY ALPHA MALE by Monday.
Do you know that groggy looking guys that you're used to looking in an active state is just so...helpless looking? LOL.
Excellent book choices, btw, including, ahem, mine. Thank you! I really do want my characters and story to resonate with my readers and your picking it as one of your top books of the year really made my morning.,.which is about to blow up, as soon as I get off this chair, LOL.
I have a bunch of good ones in my TBR too, including Lara Adrian's series. I want to read her newest one without starting the series because I've heard so many great things about it. I need to start Dodd's newest venture out of historical. So many great books!
I have read way too many good ones this year, not all were published this year but they were new to me, so I'll list authors instead:
1- Gennita (my favorite would have to be V-His, Helen is too much fun)
2- Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark Hunter series
3- Christina Skye's Foxfire SEALs
4- Kathy Love's vampire brothers
5- Lora Leigh- the Breeds series, the Nauti boys and her Tempting Seals.
That is it I guess, other books I read where re-reads (like reading Dante's Vita Nuova again cuz of butthead #9).
