  • Hi! I'm Ellachanted and I'm a fanfic-oholic.
Thread #6 - We are crazy talkers here! Join in the fun!

ADULT DISCUSSION HERE, SO TRY TO KEEP IT CLEAN! UM NO, WAIT! IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED, LOOK AWAY NOW! 

This is the new thread as the other was sooo long and had lots of pages. Continuation of our wonderful discussions on Twilight Fanfiction, Books, and Life in general.  But mostly Twilight fanfics... and life stuff that will get me a NOT ALLOWED statement. 

Okay, here is a place to discuss what you are reading, ask for recommendations and complain about the writing.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, so please play nice   

Because we know drypen's watching    :googlyeyes:

I just got a prompt to update to ios8.0.2 as it's supposed to fix some bugs like this:

"Fixes a bug that prevented uploading photos and videos from Safari"

Hope this update will solve my tinypic problem

Yay! It's fixed!

I'm reading the Remember When Trilogy by T. Torrest and absolutely loving it...  half way through book 2 right now.    It's just my kinda story!
I'm so glad to hear that you liked this one! I saw that it was on sale and nabbed it today!  I saw someone describe it as a grownup Sempre so I couldn't resist!
Demaris, I'm curious what a travel truck is.   I'm picturing you having a gigantic U-Haul type truck parked outside your house full of vinyl records.   :o :D
Oooh so is this where I should start for my first BR?  Wait, it says it's book 2...  did you read the first one called A Kingdom Of Dreams?

 :D :D :D :D This is why I keep saying I need a beta for my posts! I meant a Travel TRUNK. It's about 1000000 years old and belonged to my grandmother, I used to use it to transport my stuff back and forth from school.

Whitney My Love was the first book McNaught wrote, I think she then went back and wrote Kingdom. But no you don't have to read Kingdom to enjoy Whitney, I haven't anyway.

I've had Monster In his Eyes on my iPad to be read for a while, I'm waiting though for her to finish the series...I will not be held to ransom  a la Sylvia Day ever again!

Oooohhh, I loved loved loved Judith McNaught.  I wish she would write more , you are right, been waiting for "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You" for forever! She is now in her 70s. I collect all her books (actual books). i am only missing 'Something Wonderful' , i gave my copy to my sister and had not been able to find it in the used  book sales again but i keep looking each time I came across one. i had both versions of 'Whitney, My Love'. The first version(1985) with 35 chapters and The special edition (1999) with 42 chapters and a couple of changes .  I also loved and collect books by Julie Garwood and Amanda Quick (her older books)

I read on Wiki that Can't Take My Eyes Off of You was due out in 2017! How long have you been waiting? Oh Lordie...? Is she playing the  George R R Martin game? Mofo! He's 70 if he's a day too.

I no longer buy actual books if I can help it. Like Booked I just don't have the space...or the will/inclination to throw any of my old books away. The other day we had to move one of my books cases to get behind it to run new wiring and so all my books had to be taken out; I found some gems in there that I had completely forgotten I'd read. Mr PA go very annoyed because for every book I took out I spent 5 minutes skimming through  :P


Loopy, my darling, thank you do much for my new decoration.......Don't you think though he's wearing just a few too many clothes? He looks mightily hot, maybe we can divest him of the bottom half?  ;)  >:D

All jokes aside Michael Fassbender is the sexiest man alive!

Kingdom of Dreams are their ancestors, the very first Westmoreland, like a hundred years before them or something. It was very good too! But not necessary to read it first before Whitney, My Love.  :)

Got that right! I wait for a series to finish now before starting. How many books will Monster have?

Man, "Can't take my eyes off you" was mentioned when she published "every breath you take"...in 2005. Any reasonable person would think, "yes, a new book next year!" Little did i know it would be ialmost 10 yrs after and it hasn't come out yet  :( Well, at least she is still alive so there is still hope. Not unlike me not knowing Kathleen Woodiwiss was dead until it was mentioned here by Ella a few weeks ago. Then, that would literally be waiting for forever... ;D

Awww, ain't that sweet. Mr. PA being such a handy man. First he nurses you back to health, now he helps you do heavy lifting  in your house. Do you know if he also bakes? Because if he does, i just might move my ass to the UK as you and Loopy seem to have cornered the market on hung, well built men who takes cares of the ladies. With Rpattz also there... Ohmy *sigh*

I've read Monster and really enjoyed it but a little pissed considering she was adamant that it was a standalone and the same for Extinguish as there's  gonna be a sequel now.

Aww, you've picked a good 'un there hun. The hubby may do plenty of things but I gotta really nag at him to stuff like that unless I'm pregnant. [emoji13]
You're welcome hun, it was the most PTS friendly gifts of him walking towards you that I could find. [emoji20]
But at least there's a bit of jiggle going on. [emoji13]

Ok, so I have to rant. Sorry. I just read some comments on the E! website. Some hating on Kristen and others supporting her. Ok, so I have to say this. People need to get over it already! I mean ok, so Kris cheated. The last time I checked no one is perfect and we all make mistakes. She didn't cheat on us and I would say that she has more than paid for the mistake that she made. What is done is done and all she can do is learn from it and move on. Rob and Kris both deserve to be happy whether that is with each other or other people. We just need to respect that it is their decision. 

On a side note, does anyone else find it interesting that Twigs has an album coming out? It wouldn't surprise me if she was just using him. Think where her album would be without the publicity of being his GF? Pretty convenient if you ask me.

Ok, rant over. Sorry, but I just had to get that out of me.

Your rant just made me very happy with my decision to not read any Rob news for a while.

I totally agree with you hun.
She's not my fave person but that's more to do with her attitude, acting etc (which we've all discussed on here - several times) but I wouldn't wish anything bad against her.

Her and Rob tried again after the incident and it didn't work, so they are probably better off with other people and exploring different things in life.
I'm sure she regrets it and is kicking herself over her mistake and we've no idea what her relationship with Rob was like behind closed doors, so they might of been nearing the end of their relationship anyway, either way cheating happens everyday for thousands of people the only difference is that theirs is played out in public - it's like Brad and Jen all over again. Peeps just need to move on and get over it.  :)
At the end of the day it's their lives and as long as they are happy, who really cares what they do (to a point). :)
Sorry, I got a bit ranty like as well hun.  :D :D

I've gotta be honest, I'd never heard of Twigs before last week so I think that says a lot. :P
I just hope that she doesn't bugger off and think that she's bigger and better than she is now she's getting more publicity than she was.  :( ;D

Ok, travel TRUNK!  Now that I can see in your house storing records!   I thought it was one of those terms like "spotted dick" or other terms you ladies across the pond use that I'm not familiar with.     I actually saw some of that stuff in an international grocery store recently and I'm thinking it's been brought up on here before, right?   There was also some sort of sandwich that Loopy was talking about that I thought had a really funny name.  Now I can't remember what it was called.

Good to know about the book! I guess I'll be reading that one...  although, I'm now wondering if it's better than Shanna that everybody recommended.  Maybe you should give that one a try too.

I'm admitting it, I was wrong (I KNOW A FIRST!!!  :o :o :D :D) I just checked the end of Monster and there is a mention of a second book to conclude the story but where it ended wasn't a cliffie as far as I can remember.  ??? ???

Spotted Dick  :sign0137: :sign0137: The hubby loves this with really thick custard. :sign0137:

Yes, I have seen the convos about Kris's acting. I don't have any issues with her acting, and I have enjoyed what I have seen her in so far, but I noticed that all of the characters that she has chosen are all the same. Whether that is from her acting, or if that is how the director wants the character portrayed I don't know. I think that she needs to step outside of the box that she is in and expand her acting chops like Rob has.

Those people really need to learn to let things go. Any issue I had with that whole situation was more on the married guy than her cheating on Rob, anyway. We don't really know how real their relationship was by that point anyway.  She was (is) young, and we have no idea what kind of lines that producer guy was feeding her.

I didn't love her acting in the Twilight movies, but I thought most of the cast was kinda stiff, so I really blamed that more on the directing than the actors themselves. I haven't seen enough of her other movies to really have an opinion, but I know I've seen The Panic Room, and that movie where she played Meg Ryan's daughter, before I ever knew who she was, and I don't remember thinking she sucked in either of those movies. As for her attitude in public, again, she's young, she went white hot famous in seemingly no time, and it can't be easy to have that part of your life under a million microscopes at once.

Until T,s photo with Rob I'd never heard of her either.
KStew, I'm sure, has had her share of drama throughout the breakup. I do wish the best for her just not with Rob.

Never heard of twigs either until now - she's British by the way.   If she's using him because it will sell albums, I guess we'll find out soon enough.   She and Kris have one thing in common other than Rob - has anyone taken a good look at her hair.  I wasn't paying attention until a friend said "What is it with the hair?" and I went "What?"   Its evidently all in pigtails?   As for Kris, there is nothing worse than a Robsten who can't accept that they've broken up.   I have a Robsten on my end who keeps hoping they'll get back together - its true love don't you know.  I get my Rob news (other than Robsessed, Robert Pattinson Life and Spunk Ransom) by reading Gossip Cop.  They separate the truth from the garbage.   Same friend (the Robsten) quotes gossip rags on what Rob is supposedly doing or not or who he's dating (definitely  not Dylan Penn  - she's engaged to someone else) and I keep yelling at her to pay attention to Gossip Cop and forget the rest of the crap.
