Pot

I have been taken hostage by a TV show, parish the thought! But I can’t deny the fact that the show Weeds is absolutely fantastic. My wonderful mother who I love and adore has allowed me access to her netflix account. Totes heart netflix…at any rate; this is where I found Weeds. The show is about a single mom in a rich suburban neighborhood who sells weed to her community. Hysterical! Now, because I have been taken hostage I have been putting off starting the next book I want to reed. Have no fear, I will begin reading soon…
















Soon To Be Reading: Water Bound by Christine Feehan
Off the shores of Sea Haven, a beautiful diver rescues a man from drowning, a man with no memory of who he is--or why he seems to possess the violent instincts of a trained killer. But soon, he and his savior will be engulfed in a storm of dizzying passion and inescapable danger.

In Other Worlds

On September 1st I talked about the book I was reading, 'In Other Worlds', by Sherrilyn Kenyon. Well I just finished it last night, or should I say this morning at 1:52 am, and I really enjoyed these 3 short stories!



The first story; 'Fire and Ice', is about a moody, temperamental, sexy, ex-assassin and a beautiful, young, virgin who is trying to escape an arranged marriage. After running away she meets this striking man in a seedy bar and from there both of their lives take a turn neither of them could have imagined...

The second story; 'Knightly Dreams' is almost like a fairy tale: Witches, knights, and a damsel in distress. Two people, from two different worlds, wish for love and a chance to flee the lives they currently lead. A witch gives each of them the opportunity to change their lives forever, the question is: will they take it?...

The final story, my favorite story; 'Dragonswan', is an exciting tale of a shape shifting dragon and a...historian? A quite and simple historian works her way to discovering the meaning of an old tapestry, little does she know, the stunningly beautiful man who wonders into her life holds all the answers, and her heart…

"Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested: that is, some books are to be read only in parts,others to be read, but not curiously, and some few to be read wholly, and with diligence and attention."

RIGHT NOW


Right now I am currently reading 'In Other Worlds' by my long lost love, Sherrilyn Kenyon. This book has three different stories in it. Normally I don't like this kind of thing; the combining of books. I honestly didn't think that in this 304 page book I would get to know the characters, let alone that love could happen in that short amount of time. Proved wrong again by Sherrilyn Kenyon! I've already read the first story and I'm currently in the middle of the second. When I finish reading I will give you all more details on this fantastic book!
