Kristen  (k10bentley) | 422 comments Good morning, evening, and afternoon to you all!

I haven't seen the movie yet...I'd really like my daughter to at least read SOME of the book before we see the end.

Ok...here's what we like so far:

Bellatrix's Bitches
Published Enemies #1
Public Enemies #1


Any others??


message 52: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa (lyssad87) | 974 comments Published Enemy #1 or Bellatrix's Bitches works for me.

Vi, I agree Helena Bonham Carter is quite awesome. Did you know that she and Tim Burton have been together for like 4 years now and have 2 kids?

I love Tim Burton movies, so that's why I think she's even more awesome.


message 53: by Thenia (new)

Thenia | 977 comments I don't really like Bellatrix's Bitches... As much as I enjoyed reading about Bellatrix and of course, admire Helena Bonham Carter's talent, I wouldn't want to be anyone's bitch, no matter how awesome (or fictional :P). Even if the word is meant as it's "badass" interpretation, I'm still kind of averse to it. If the rest of you like it though, I suppose it's just a name!


message 54: by Kristen (new)

Kristen  (k10bentley) | 422 comments I totally see your point :)

It looks like Published Enemy #1 is the one that most of us like. Shall we go with it??


message 55: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa (lyssad87) | 974 comments I like it.

Sandra | 25795 comments Ladies, take a vote and one of us mods can put your name up for you :)


message 57: by Josie (new)

Josie | 1967 comments I like too!


message 58: by Vi (new)

Vi | 938 comments Thenia, I see your point. I'm ok with Published Enemy #1.

We've got 5 out of 6, so "Published Enemy #1" it is.

Thanks!!!

I missed your comment earlier. Oh man, I didn't know that. That makes her, like, even more awesome.

Sandra | 25795 comments New name done :)


message 62: by Josie (new)

Josie | 1967 comments Thanks Sandra!
I think we're the first team to have a name, so hopefully we'll be the first team to get bingo as well ;)


message 63: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa (lyssad87) | 974 comments That is exactly what I was thinking, Josie.


Cindy (eclecticfirefly) (eclecticfirefly) | 1237 comments Dream on......


message 65: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa (lyssad87) | 974 comments *blocks the door with furniture so Cindy can't come in* I just knew you would show up after we started talking like that. Lol. Do you have some kind of alarm or something that goes off when a team other than yours starts to act cocky about winning? *shakes head* Crazy lady. :-D :-P


Cindy (eclecticfirefly) (eclecticfirefly) | 1237 comments That paltry bit of furniture won't keep me out! Just go put on your tinkerbelle outfit and flit around for awhile.....

I don't need an alarm. I can smell the false hope ya'll have.....


message 67: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa (lyssad87) | 974 comments *dances a little* I never took the costume off. :-P

*throws confetti all over Cindy* Have fun with that! :-D


Cindy (eclecticfirefly) (eclecticfirefly) | 1237 comments *tries to brush off annoying confetti*

*grumbles loudly*

Dang it - don't you have any edible confetti????


message 69: by Alyssa (last edited Jul 16, 2011 08:44PM) (new)

Alyssa (lyssad87) | 974 comments Hmmm.... Interesting proposal. I'll consider it for next time.

You look all sparkly though. :-D Pretty.


Cindy (eclecticfirefly) (eclecticfirefly) | 1237 comments Yeah....gotta admit the little sparkly gold pieces look great in my hair!


message 71: by Suzanne (new)

Suzanne (esmerelda1) | 1024 comments I like the name! That's awesome!


message 72: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32498 comments Cool name, ladies!


message 73: by Vi (new)

Vi | 938 comments Thanks Steph!

Argh, two more days. I can't wait for Sunday. Totally frustrated with the waiting.


message 74: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32498 comments Next time I won't start sign-ups so early, but rather closer to game start (if possible) to cut down on the waiting.

Hang in there --- almost time! :D


Cindy (eclecticfirefly) (eclecticfirefly) | 1237 comments It's OK Steph - just gives us an outlet to b!tch. That way our families don't get quite so much. That's my story, and I'm sticking with it!!!


message 76: by Vi (new)

Vi | 938 comments It's ok, Steph. No worries! I second Cindy. It's my story too :P


message 77: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32498 comments LOL! GTK ;)

LOL! Our families also can't B*tch that we are spending too much time reading, too!

Yahoo! The game has begun!


message 84: by Vi (new)

Vi | 938 comments Finally!!! But gosh, that shelf is so long and we can't search :( :( :( I am hoping to find a couple of books but so far I haven't found them. But I do have The Lost Hero which I'm leaning towards. Are we doing the Free Space now also?


message 85: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa (lyssad87) | 974 comments Read The Lost Hero, Vi!!!!!!


message 86: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa (lyssad87) | 974 comments The Free Space can be done at any time just not until the game was started. We'll just want to get it done when we can in case it comes up in a Bingo.


message 87: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa (lyssad87) | 974 comments If you CLICK HERE, Vi, Steph posted a tip for figuring out if a book you want to read is on a shelf. It was pretty handy for me today.


message 88: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa (lyssad87) | 974 comments Oh.... And I'm going to read The Darkest Night (Lords of the Underworld, #1) by Gena Showalter for the Free Space.


message 89: by Vi (new)

Vi | 938 comments Thanks Alyssa for the link and the rec! I was able to find Kushiel's Chosen (Kushiel's Legacy, #2) by Jacqueline Carey shelved as 4-stars. Yay!. Now I'm torn between both of them :( :( :(

Kristen, both of them are shelved as 4-stars. I will read either or both and let you know once I'm done? Is that ok?


message 90: by Vi (new)

Vi | 938 comments Oh and for Free Space, I think I'll go with Hounded (Iron Druid Chronicles, #1) by Kevin Hearne

message 92: by Josie (last edited Jul 23, 2011 11:28PM) (new)

Josie | 1967 comments I think I'll be reading Pride (Shifters, #3) by Rachel Vincent for 4 stars
Is it alright if I decide free space after I've finished or would you like a decision now?


message 93: by Josie (new)

Josie | 1967 comments It'll probably be Bound by Shadow (The Dark Crescent Sisterhood, #1) by Anna Windsor for Free Space (off the group's bookshelf)


message 94: by Laura Lulu (last edited Jul 24, 2011 12:11AM) (new)

Laura Lulu (lauralulu) | 1603 comments Josie, you don't have to decide yet for the free space, but if you do, it's not set in stone--you can always change it. :)

Josie | 1967 comments Thanks :)

Thanks, Vi! The Lost Hero is really long. I didn't like it as well as The Lightning Theif series.

Let me know if you change your mind :-)

Happy Reading!!

Kristen  (k10bentley) | 422 comments Enjoy your "Paperback Writers" today, Published Enemies!

I'm off on the "Long and Winding Road" to Detroit to see Sir Paul. I'll "Get Back" to updating our titles in the "Good Morning"!

:-)

Ok, I was planning to read kushiel's chosen but then I realizes it's longer than the lost hero. And since I'm had only party of sunday, I decided to go with the lost hero. That and when I peeked into the book, I was sucked into it. but I was wondering about the lightning thief series. It goes to my tbr then. anyway, can I change my book to the lost hero?

LOL, Kristen, Enjoy!

I'm sure you'll "Come Together" and won't want "Help!" After a "Day Tripper" and a "A hard day's night" you'll really just "I want to hold your hand", "Eight day's a week" and relax and think of "Yesterday"

LOL, it's harder than I thought. Had to go & put on my Beatles #1 CDs after that :D
