Oops! Good call - definitely need to read FGOTR first. Oh, and you should probably read it now. ;)

The short is really good. I remember I hunted down cpb all "LOOK! MORE CHARLEY!!!" I was pretty excited..

Okay, so. August. *repeats to self* I can make it until August, I can make it...

Oh and cpb, I'm sure Darynda will let you borrow Reyes for a little while. I asked her for him on my birthday, hehe.

I plan to check DJ out in the near future. J. R. Ward sang her praises at the signing when asked who she read. She said she didn't get to read much but that FGOTR was a great book!

Yeah, after the shoes (which I still can NOT find) on the cover, one of the first things that caught my attention was JR's comment. Very impressive, Darynda :clap: .

Shirl, this is a must read. Seriously. FGOTR is one of those books that you will kick your own butt for not reading it sooner.

You find out by the end of the book, I swear! But if you REALLY want to know, I could tell you. I would try and help, but I can't really explain without giving too much away..

Wendy, I beg of you, if anyone PMs you the answer, do not open the PM until after you're done. There is an OH MY GOD moment you get when the reveal is made. Keep reading and don't open the PMs - you won't regret it.

cpb ok I won't. No one has yet anyway. I kind of think I know but I'm sure I'm wrong anyway. I love this book it just flows, but I wish someone could tell me why is it that when you find a book you don't want to put down RL seems to keep getting in the way and how I can avoid that from happening. :shock:

Wendy, listen to me. I'm not a doctor, but I play one on TV. Go to your room, take the book with you, lock the door and put the iPod in. When people knock, you won't be able to hear them. Then finish the book.

BTW, not that I'm completely evil but the fam kept trying to interrupt me when I was reading it. I announced to everyone that I was this close to activating my PMS gland and that I should be allowed to finish without interruptions. Hey, it got me three quiet hours. :D
