*hahahaha!!! I've embraced it

The Kindle crushing, laptop smashing angst had me at hello!

Oh, maybe so? 

Have you read The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss?

it was REALLY good!   

How about Stardust by Neil Gaiman? (short and wonderful...    this is the kind of book I like to get lost in! Please don't even consider comparing it to the movie!  It was nothing like the book!)

I still think you would really like the Silver Linings Playbook!   What if we find you a new image to replace whatshisface with? ;-)  It's so different from the other stuff our group tends to read!

Be sure and check out the music selections too!  There is one song by Mumford and Sons that reminds me so much of Dusty!  Still puts me right back in that mindset!

Are books 2 & 3 as good as the first All Souls book?  I sure hope so!  This one has been a real page turner!  I'm at around the 85% mark.    And you're right, Demaris...  Matthew gives Edward a run for his money!!   
 

Definitely not HPII, but you're right it's a trilogy and it isn't finished yet...   I'll get back with you in a decade when it is finished.   

Glad to hear that you are going to consider SLP!  It's good stuff!  Just thinking about it makes me chuckle.  I *heart* Pat!

Actually it will take me a few more weeks to finish this trilogy so you better start without me.   Be sure and check out the music selections too!  There is one song by Mumford and Sons that reminds me so much of Dusty!  Still puts me right back in that mindset!

Well in that case Dusty is for you; I can't tell you how many times my iPad was in danger of being thrown through a window!  You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

OK on Silver Lining! Between you and Loopy Girl you've convinced me, but.....if its ...you know the rest of this sentence..... I'll start it as soon as I've finished reading Mary's and Sarah's stories in A Bad Boy's Anthology and Gillian Flynn's Sharp Objects.

And lets not forget the 'song that started it all' Christina Perri Jar of Hearts as well as  KOL's Dusty and Brand New's Crack The Sky, Birdy's Skinny Love....and the song Bliss is listening to (Night Terrors of 1927's Dust and Bones) and the end 'with blood that knows and skin that knows and a heart that knows'.

God! I love that those lines! And the f**cktastic music in this story is just never ending.

Talking of my boys I was meant to post an update last week after talking to Ted as he has finally started reading Dusty (the fic version) and he wasn't too sure about it but he was only 7/8 chapters in at the time but he loves the writing style as (like we've all said) it's so lyrical.
He's trying to get Ben to read it but that's like trying to get a 2 year old to read it instead of look at pretty picture books (Ben loves Comics) and I don't think Marcus or Win are even gonna look at it even though I've been nagging them about it via emails/texts etc.  I can't tell you how many times I did throw my iPad (thank god, for it's case) the first time I read Dusty, though I think some of that frustration was due to it being a WIP and me being impatient about wanting it updated. 

I love when a book/fic has a great sound track to go with it and just pieces it all together perfectly.
Got to admit that when reading the pub versions I caved and listened to Pure Heroine as I've said before that, that album is so Dusty but reading while listening to it was just something else.

Hun, do you realise that you just quoted what could possible be my next tatt. I'm still deciding between that and "We don't pull wings off butterflies." as both just makes me wanna crumble and cry every time I hear/read them. 

I reckon you'd like SLP more than you think, it's such a great book. I enjoyed the film but like most converted books/movies it doesn't quite capture what the book portrays.

Lol, I would so give you his number and the rest of my boys as well but I do kinda wanna remain in contact with them and not through a restraining order. 
I keep hoping that I'll get invited to another event of theirs where the hubby has to nearly tie me to the chair (and not in a good way, this happened when we went to Marcus and Carey's Wedding Reception) so I won't try and jump Jake Gyllenhaal and

I so have a thing for Marcus but I'd never admit that to him as I'm pretty sure that would screw everything up, I think I nearly wet my pants with excitement (that's what I'm claiming anyway) when I first met him and he had a fag hanging out of his mouth, a pair of sunglasses on while wearing his tie loose and the first two buttons of his shirt undone.   

Hun, I thought I'd whittled it down to 2 quotes but the more I think about Dusty and the more you quote from it the more I don't know but the other quote I was on about was: Present, honest, and alive, I part my lips and say out loud exactly what love means to me:
I think I might have it done either on my inner left thigh or the back of my neck. I'm kinda starting to run out places to get tatts. 

That's hilarious, I bet when they got your email they had a right laugh after realising you were following a WIP.

Hope that makes sense.

I got 25 tatts in total, I'm a bit like Becks - I FLOVE the pain, it's the whole pleasure/pain thing really. 

Marcus and Carey (Mulligan) got married in 2012, they got married just outside of Bridgwater which is literally down the road from me. 
I really like Carey she's lovely (so much better than his ex - Laura Marling)
What would Mr PA and Fassy say if they could hear you asking about who's single in the band? 
The answer to that question anyway is none of them are single, sorry hun. But as soon as one of them does split from their other halfs I'll let you know, as it's always nice to keep your options open and especially when they are younger than us. 

Yay, that actually made sense to someone other than me.  :DThanks hun, it was really difficult as he looked so hot in his suit. 

I think so! Honestly I think it just kept improving with each book! It kept me up like a cr*ck whoor in need of a fix!  I definitely agree with demaris, they are all good for different reasons 

I'm down for that! 

  Do you remember us on here waiting for Dusty updates....Dusty was, if not the first, then one of the first fics I read when I first joined FFN, I had NO IDEA there were stories on there that weren't finished; got to chapter 19 and ?! I can neither confirm or deny that I might have emailed the 'help desk' to tell them the site was broken.....from Chapter 19 to 38 was pure and utter hell     

I swear to God I was so surprised! It just ended abruptly and if I remember rightly on a f*cking cliffy

I was new to the the Fic world I just didn't get it, and I didn't think to read the reviews and see what the hell was going on....God, fun times, not.

Yes you did see that about Branded but I only read Sarah's; it was really, really good, I enjoyed it...I love that woman writing, no jokes.

I have no idea but it was a bloody long time, let me tell you!

The anthology is a bunch of short stories 4 or 5 I think? Mary Elizabeth has one in there too but I've not read it yet.

It is 02.47GMT and I'm about to go to bed...nite, nite..


NB: One last thing, does anyone know if all of Amber L Johnson's books are P2P of Fan fictions? Or is it just Puddle Jumping, which I've read as a ff but now can't remember sh!t about it....
