A group of humans who are part demon, the hybrids, along with the lupines and nightwalkers, have dedicated their lives to defeating demons and protecting humanity. Yet, despite their united cause, the three groups share an uneasy alliance.<br /><br />When hybrid military compounds come under attack from demon insurgents, Winter has no choice but to turn to the lupines and nightwalkers for assistance. It's a partnership based on necessity and she has no intention of letting down her guard with either group.<br /><br />Marcus, the nightwalker Lord, has other plans. The immediate attraction between him and Winter promises a passion he can't ignore. To claim her as his own, he'll not only have to fight the demons who seem hell-bent on destroying her, but her own misconceptions about him and the nightwalker race. It's a battle he refuses to lose. (from goodreads.com)</span></blockquote><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">This one was a hard one for me. Overall, I would say I enjoyed the book, but I had some things that upset me (frustrated me).</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">I found the concept for the book super interesting. I mean, binding one's soul with that of a demon's is pretty cool. I think that's why I picked it up in the first place, there aren't a lot of books I've read about hybrids and such. So it was fun in that respect. I did like Winter. She was stubborn and strong and could fight and keep up with the rest of them. I'm always about females who can push to the front of the lines and keep their place there. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">The hardship I had with this book came in the form of one Nightwalker/vampire. Yeah, he was sexy and downright scintillating, but I have a super hard time with possession and those who must posses their loved ones. I have a hard time with possession because I've been there and it sucks. And although I get the need of vampires and werewolves to be possessive of their mates, this book seemed to bring it in a kind of crazy dose. Like Marcus, the sexy vampire, wanted her submissive and tamed. At first it sounded like he wanted to be able to give her orders and her immediately obey like a little puppy. That bothered me. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">I simply cannot stand orders being given, no matter how much someone may love or care about you. It's just not cool, to say the least. I will say this though, in the end, I think Marcus realizes that he won't be able to completely reign her in and he seems okay with it. Winter seems to calm down herself and want to be reigned in a little bit. I didn't believe it as a whole because no one turns around that fast, but it was believable to an extent. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Overall, the book had good pacing and action and I enjoyed different plot points. The writing was good even if I didn't enjoy some of the character traits. But, I will say that I really do want to read the sequel because I would like to find out what happens to some of the other characters. And, the book was definitely action packed and a fun read with demon hunts, war lords, sparring with werewolves and some steamy scenes. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >Rating: <a href="http://s797.photobucket.com/albums/yy252/jentheunknown/WickedSexyBooks/?action=view&current=ScorchingAdoration.jpg" target="_blank"><img style="width: 273px; height: 116px;" src="http://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy252/jentheunknown/WickedSexyBooks/ScorchingAdoration.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a></span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center; font-family: trebuchet ms;"><em>I received this book free of charge from </em><a href="http://ebooks.carinapress.com/B1263285-8D86-402D-BC49-E689644A7F78/10/134/en/Default.htm"><em><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">Carina Press</span></em></a><em><a href="http://www.harpercollins.com/authors/37226/Courtney_Allison_Moulton/index.aspx"> </a>and </em><a href="http://www.netgalley.com/"><em><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">NetGalley</span></em></a><em> in exchange for an honest review.

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Gabriola; font-size: 14pt;">The beginning was a bit slow for me. There wasn't anything that pulled me into the story but with only 10 pages I didn't think I would gain a wrinkle over lost time. However, I was hooked when lovely Lord Ashton asked the haughty upper classCharlotte to get on his wooden horse. Yes, a wooden rocking horse of all things! From there the story... exploded. Literally exploded in a oddly unquie way!<br />
<br />
Great few minutes of inky goodness! & no wrinkles!</span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Gabriola; font-size: 14pt;">Oh, I really liked this one! Too good not to read again another day & another & another. *grin*<br />
<br />
The whole concept of fallen into a painting was just too wonderful. I've spent a far amount of times at art museums in Washington DC and New York City and I can say even I have thought about falling into a painting or sitting where the artist was once standing. I started to drift into my own thoughts on this concept and had to pull myself back to finish this wonderful story.<br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Gabriola; font-size: 14pt;">Our lovely man candy was lusting after the woman in the portrait then he was soon in it. However, he didn't eactly get what he desired. LOL! This poor man will have to wait to fall in another day to be able to touch her with out being punished! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Gabriola; font-size: 14pt;">I wanted more but hopefully he will fall back into the painting once more ;)</span></span><br />

In book one, we see her realize her worth, in book two, we see her realize she can take care of herself, and in book three....well...we see her realize her strengths. And, I don't think the fights between her libido and her virtue will ever get old. Maybe because I can relate. Especially while reading this book can I relate. Although, I think I side with her libido when I say, can I ride a motorcycle with the Barghest?!</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Mmmmm, yummy, the smexy Anyan Barghest. I mean, I currently feel like licking my lips over an over just at the thought of him. *grrrruff* Oh yeah, that is one hot piece of hell hound. Seriously, just sitting here in this chair, recalling the deliciousness of his keister. I think he is currently my favorite fictional boyfriend. I can hear my libido and virtue now:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Libido</span>: Come on Jen, just lick him a bit. A little bit down the abs, maybe he'll throw you against a wall...</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Virtue</span>: Jen, don't do it.

Plus, her plot content was absolutely amazing and pulled me right in to the craziness that is Jane True. I just love the way that Peeler can write the story like she does with all the uniqueness and beauty inserted and all the annoying kornyness kept out. She makes you feel like you are right there, in the action with all of the characters.

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Today I thought I would try something a bit different.</div><div style="text-align: center;">This book was soo good. </div><div style="text-align: center;">Yes, I finished it!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">But instead of reviewing it today... That will come next week *wink*.</div><div style="text-align: center;">I'm going to provide with a handful of most amazing quotes.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Lori Brighton filled up a couple of pages in my trusty notebook.</div><div style="text-align: center;">It has been awhile since that has happened.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Today I will share my quote Treasures :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">It is only fair to start off with the First Line:</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;">Considering the place was at least three hundred years old, she supposed it could have been worse.</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;">Quotes:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;">How she wanted to take those damn golden curls and wrap them around her scrawny neck.</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;">Hell, who was she kidding; not even Franksenstein would feel at home in this pub of horrors.</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;">She was so tired of these odd replies that only brought up more questions. It was like having a conversation with the Mad Hatter.</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;">Ghosts, Witches, & Poltergeists? Oh my.</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;">Death by high heels, how embarassing would that have been?</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;">Cristian closed his eyes as he resisted the urge to turn, to step closer to her like a druggie looking for a fix. His drug of choice? Woman.</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;">"Death to all," a voice growled. "Well, that's just rude," she muttered, searching for the beast responsible, or at least some sort of weapon.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">My favorite Quote:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="background-color: black; color: white; text-align: center;">Well, are you going to tell me or just sit there brooding like some romance novel hero?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Ok... I did not provide you with all of the quotes I wrote down but here is a fair amount of awesomness in Lori Brighton's form of goodness.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

A mysterious microbe has begun to infect women of child-bearing age. Though the medical establishment writes it off as a simple flu, and the epidemic appears to be dying out, a young New York obstetrician confronts a conundrum. In the past year, the ratio of boys to girls born in her practice has declined precipitously. Dr. Deborah Kruger suspects the truth: that infected women are no longer able to give birth to male children.</span> <span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">With the help of her husband Larry, a computer analyst, Deborah tracks the epicenter to New York City, from which the infection is already bursting forth. And, as years pass, despite hundreds of laboratories at work on it, the microbe continues to overrun borders and envelop the Earth. With Science unable to stop it, and the contagion rippling worldwide in an AIDS-like pandemic, how will society cope in an increasingly female world?(from Goodreads.com)</span><br /></span></blockquote> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjplnMQuCQi73EBlPlH3DIF6DwOVKlRJcHDPs-kUyqrClPpTnNbtUwswezGFbIMXlr-P8s0njGM8onkKqplZ4A-hNfLGfB39JqSmDZ6LheuAiTUD0XCaIgvADpykCdytS1Cc6bq3f3WIro/s1600/Jen+Only+Sig.jpg" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: trebuchet ms;"><img alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5543091687332418866" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjplnMQuCQi73EBlPlH3DIF6DwOVKlRJcHDPs-kUyqrClPpTnNbtUwswezGFbIMXlr-P8s0njGM8onkKqplZ4A-hNfLGfB39JqSmDZ6LheuAiTUD0XCaIgvADpykCdytS1Cc6bq3f3WIro/s320/Jen+Only+Sig.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; float: left; height: 42px; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; width: 59px;" border="0" /></a><span style=";font-family:trebuchet ms;color:black;" >So this particular review will be a duet between me and the lovely Black Disaster Fairy. </span> <span style=";font-family:trebuchet ms;color:black;" >As you can see from the summary above, this is a science fiction novel of epic proportion.

How do you go from being a fortune teller to a person with the ability to see ghosts? Ok, perhaps that would be fun for a little while. I mean so many of us HUMANS want to be something other then what we are now. Crazy. But for Jolie things get a bit crazier, not only does she see ghosts but she is able to make the dead come back to life! Wow! Now those are some crazy super powers.

I mean who would want to? Not I, said the Fairy! However, Rand has this one rule that makes you grin because you know there will be some rule breaking somewhere, it is a paranormal romance after all!

Although, I must admit that I was hoping for a bit more of a clean ending. Perhaps, just more BANG! Fear not! This is just the first in the series, we will learn more later on. Even with the wanting more at the end, I was never bored throughout the book. It was highly addictive. Like the Dark Chocolate the Fairy Loves so much! I hope HP Mallory keeps the wit and interesting characters coming.

Really, It's all quite juicy and delicious and it starts off with a bang (literally). Okay, maybe not in the very very beginning, but no matter, it is still quite delicious. It starts off in a demon hospital where a demon of any kind can go and get fairly treated. I know... interesting....</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >Now I always try to make my reviews spoiler free for all those who haven't read the book, so here it goes:</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >I absolutely loved and adored Eidolon who happens to be a Seminus demon which I guess is a form of a succubus. He just seems so sweet and kind and downright gruff. I picture him as being one of those guys who is bad but who can be good. Okay, that sounds funny, but I had this conversation with one of my sisters and he totally foots the bill there.

It cracked me up that they keep referring to her as "The Buffy". I liked Tayla for the shear fact that she kicked ass and didn't take crap from anyone. However *clears throat *....that little problem she suffered through for most of her life....uuhhh...can we say THAT WOULD TOTALLY SUCK!!! (Those who have read this know what I mean... can we say pain for the V!)</span><br /><blockquote style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: trebuchet ms;">"So,uh, where am I, exactly ?

It seems that I keep getting wrapped up in these excellent series and I just keep putting off my reviews. Again we're sorry, but at least some good book reading comes out of it *grins*.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >One of my more recent series was the wonderful Georgina Kincaid Series by Richelle Mead. The basic story line is about a succubus who doesn't really want to be a succubus. Now if any of you are wondering what a succubus is, this happens to be my favorite part of this tale....it's a paranormal female (the male version is an incubus) who gets it's life energy by stealing that of human's. But, it's how they steal it that I love. They steal it through sex.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >Okay, so I might be a demented soul, but still it's kind of funny to me in a totally jacked up sort of way.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >Our main character Georgina Kincaid lives in Seattle and is surrounded with all sorts of other immortals including a couple vampires, an imp, an angel and a demon. Now, she also happens to have some high affection for humans which I guess isn't the norm for immortals. But Georgina isn't normal for a succubus.</span><br /><br /><blockquote style="font-family: trebuchet ms; color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Longing surged up within me. I wanted it. Oh God, I wanted it. I didn't want to hear Jerome chastise me for my "all lowlifes, all the time" seduction policy. I wanted to come home and tell someone about my day. I wanted to go out dancing on the weekends. I wanted to take vacations together. I wanted someone to hold me when I was upset, when the ups and downs of the world pushed me too far.<br />I wanted someone to love. (Georgina)</blockquote><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >Now, I don't want to give too much about this series away, but I would say besides Georgina, who is like this strong, smart, sexy woman/immortal/sex goddess (who also provides us scenes of exhibitionism), my favorite characters are going to be Seth and Carter.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >Now Seth is a mortal and happens to also be an author. Carter is an angel and although I didn't like him that much in the first book, I really ended up loving him in all the rest.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >But, Seth, he is just such an amazing character if you think about it for awhile. I mean, his character is so wonderfully developed and he is so flawed that you can't help but love him for it. I mean, he just brings this reality to the books that makes the reader feel like they are really there experiencing everything with the characters. And Seth, I just love him. He seems super shmexy and at the same time smart and shy and kind. I love that about him.</span><br /><br /><blockquote style="font-family: trebuchet ms; color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">"Well, that depends, I suppose. I heard someone once say that men dance the same way they have sex. So, if you want everyone here to think you're the kind of guy who just sits around and—"(Georgina)<br /><br />He stood up. 'Let's dance." (Seth)</blockquote><br /><blockquote style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">"I hope I redeemed myself with the whole dancing-sex comparison.” (Seth)</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">“I suppose there were a couple of notable similarities,” I observed, holding a straight face.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">“A couple? What about attention to detail, heavy exertion, lots of sweat, and single-minded determinedness to get the job done and done well?”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">“Mostly I was thinking you just don’t talk during sex.” Mean perhaps, but I couldn’t resist.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">“Well, my mouth has better things to do.”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">I swallowed, my own mouth dry. “Are we still talking about dancing?</span><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">"</span> </blockquote><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >Heehee! Gotta love the man!</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >Anyway though, these books are just....FANTASTIC! I loved them and I just couldn't get enough of them. Mead has such a way with her characters and her story line. I just love the way it flows and how she makes me feel glorious things about her characters. I love how she can describe a scene perfectly without too many words and still get me to know exactly what I'm seeing. Anyone who hasn't read this series should give it a try, because with arch demons who look like John Cusack, hilarious games of Pictionary involving an angel, a metrosexual vampire and a story that crosses over centuries you will love it as much as I did!</span><br /><blockquote style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">"Wait,” he said. “That’s not a word.” (Seth)</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">I looked down to where, in a moment of desperation, I’d played zixic on a triple-word-score space.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">“Uh, sure it is.”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">“What’s it mean?”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">“It’s sort of like…quixotic, but with more…”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">“Bullshit?”</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">I laughed out loud.

<br />
<b>By</b>: Sarah Ockler</div><div><b>Publisher: </b>June 1st 2009 by Little Brown & Co</div><div><b>Pages: </b>290</div><div><b>Read: </b>7/4/2010</div><div><b>Genre: </b>Young Adult, Realistic Fiction, Coming of Age</div><div><br />
<br />
<b>First Line: </b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia,serif; line-height: 21px;"><i>Frankie Perino and I were lucky that day. Lucky to be alive - that’s what everyone said. </i></span></div><b></b><br />
<br />
<div>I am notorious for not reading the synopsis before I open a book (ask Jen), this time I pulled it up on my nook. However, I must admit I am extremely happy that I did not. The shock, happiness, and sadness that wrapped around me was purely from the words on the paper in front of me. Ockler also had me recommending this book to others by page 11. Yes, I really did!</div><br />
<div>~Warning~ if you are expecting this book to be a fluffy fun beach read you need to stop! Read the synopsis or take my advice. This book mainly deals with grief. Don't get me wrong. There are a few wonderful beachy romance scenes that made me crave the smell of salt water and the feel of hot sand under my toes.</div><br />
<div>The story of secrets started off with a cute adorable cake fight between Anna and her neighbor Matt. They were washing Anna's 15th birthday cake frosting off themselves, Matt kissed Anna. Lets toss in a twist, Matt happens to be the brother of Frankie, Anna's best friend. They have been neighbors for years, the three of them formed a tight bond. Sort of a three musketeers thing. </div><div><br />
BAM! Now things are different. Cute perfection does not last long. This book is surrounded by the loss of Matt. He died of a broken heart, a hole that no one knew about until it was too late. Frankie and her family are dealing with this loss. Anna is dealing with her grief on her own, she promised Matt that she would not tell his sister. However, Matt never had the chance to tell his sister before he died.</div><br />
<div>It is a year later and the loss is still heavy around everyone. Due to the fact that they are all trying to move on, Frankie's parents decided to invite Anna on their yearly vacation to Cali. Frankie comes up with a brilliant plan. After all, Anna needs to loose her virginity, AKA the albatross. Twenty boys in one summer and she is bound to find the right guy. This will be the BEST summer ever!</div><br />
<div>Throughout the summer in Cali the girls film their vacation, sneak out of the beach house, and of course, one of them gets a huge sun burn. Naturally, there were boys. Boys, Boys, and more Boys. Their friendship is tested, along with the anxiety of being at the beach house for the first time without Matt. Anna is afraid of erasing all of her memories of Matt. Will she let loose and enjoy the Twenty Boys Summer?</div><br />
<div>The book is deep and tender as Ockler touches the taboo subject of death and loss. I loved this debut novel and I cannot wait to read more from her!</div><br />

<div>Quotes:</div><div><br />
"As I lick a runaway line of meting cherry chocolate ripple from my hand, I become hyperaware of our surroundings. The back-and-forth ancient lull of the tide. The cry of seagulls passing overhead. The smell of salt and fish carried on the warm breeze. With each step along the old wooden planks of the pier, tiny grains of sand that hitchhiked from the beach below are pulverized under our heels. Sand that traveled a millions of miles over billions of years across shifting continents and churning oceans, surviving plate tectonics, erosion, and sedimentary deposition is crushed by our new sandals. The cosmos can be so cruel."</div><br />
<div>"He's probably wondering why the women in this family are so certifiably nuts."</div><br />
<div>"'Hungry?' I ask. 'We could make chocolate chip pancakes'. It's not psychotherapy, but chocolate chip pancakes work for a lot of things."</div>Black Disaster Fairyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11380592248029834472noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5839917695358709032.post-51358329291771129522010-10-04T16:57:00.000-07:002010-10-04T16:57:31.314-07:00Sexy.

Has come up with a writing feature to get all of those creative itches scratched.<br />
<br />
The idea was developed as my creative writing professor was telling me that I need to open up my writing skills. Personally, as Black Disaster Fairy or otherwise I do not consider myself a writer. She feels I have hidden talent.<br />
<br />
The idea is to take a photo, a few select words, theme, question, or particular place and develop a story around the selected medium.<br />
<br />
Rules. There even has to be rules in the bedroom.<br />
<br />
1.) Post the link for your story by Friday<br />
2.) Limit yourself. Arounds 450 words.<br />
3.) You have to have your story include the below medium of choice.<br />
4.) This is a Adult Blog so no need to write censored work.<br />
5.) It must be an original piece of work.<br />
6.) Have some wicked fun with your words!!<br />

</div><div style="color: #336666; font-weight: bold; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Speak Loudly!</span></div></div><div style="font-family: trebuchet ms; text-align: center;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br />

</div><div style="margin: 0px;">Yes, Deeply Disturbed!</div><div style="margin: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin: 0px;">We have put together a most wonderful post for our followers.</div><div style="margin: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin: 0px;">We also got together and decided that we were going to read one of the three</div><div style="margin: 0px;">books that Scroggins called Filth!</div><div style="margin: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin: 0px;">We decided to read <span style="color: #cc0000; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Speak </span>by Laurie Halse Anderson.</div><div style="margin: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><a href="http://s797.photobucket.com/albums/yy252/jentheunknown/WickedSexyBooks/?action=view&current=BDFairyOnlySig.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy252/jentheunknown/WickedSexyBooks/BDFairyOnlySig.jpg" style="cursor: move;" /></a>Personally, for me I really wanted to read Speak. I just had to find out what would make this guy consider a rape scene to be soft porn. I also want to mention... that I feel that if you think rape is porn then Fairy thinks there is something wrong with you in more ways then one. But please get your head checked first.</span></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><br />
</span></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://s797.photobucket.com/albums/yy252/jentheunknown/WickedSexyBooks/?action=view&current=JenOnlySig.jpg" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy252/jentheunknown/WickedSexyBooks/JenOnlySig.jpg" style="cursor: move;" /></span></a>I don't like ANYONE telling me what I can and can't read. For that matter, someone dictating the same for my children. I am perfectly capable of making those decisions and I don't need anyone bringing up a lack of morals or spirituality as their defense to such. So, I bought Speak for me, because any book helping young people with rape should never be pushed aside!</div><div style="margin: 0px;"><br />

We love this time of the year because this is when the readers get to speak out against the people who would like to take the right away from us to read any book we may choose. The first amendment of the Bill of Rights gives us the right - no the freedom - to do so. Black Disaster Fairy was lucky enough to venture over to the National Archives to see the Bill of Rights in all its preserved glory. It is just mind blowing how powerful a piece of parchment can be - a piece of parchment with a voice of its own. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: black; font-family: trebuchet ms; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><br />

We are so proud of the blog community! It seems as everyone has gotten together to take our thoughts and stand up for what we believe in. As well as, those authors who would write and create books for those situations of discomfort.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: black; font-family: trebuchet ms; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><br />

This has deeply upset me. Along with this one, two other books that are definitely on my never ending to be read list. He is trying to get </span></span><span style="color: #cc0000; font-style: italic;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><b><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span">Speak</span></span></b><span class="Apple-style-span"> </span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black;"><span class="Apple-style-span">banned, saying that the two rape scenes are considered soft porn. Really, if you are reading rape scenes and getting a bit turned on I think you just may have a problem you need to address. <b style="color: #cc0000;">Sexual violence is not the same thing as porn!<br />

The rape scene is barely described, as in it basically says it happens. Plus the tone of the book during all of the scenes that Scroggins is so dismayed about is almost sarcastic and regretful. Like what Melinda (the main character) thought about life before the rape is all just a joke to her now. When you read the words, you can feel their meaning, and that meaning is not that drinking and sex are what life are all about.

Rape and molestation should not be looked at as soft porn. It truly is dirty and degrading but unfortunately it is apart of life. It happens! To me, you, adults, children. Anyone. To be powerless, to feel powerless and to have no where to turn has to be the worst experience. To be afraid and alone, exposed. Banning books on this issue does not help or detour from the possibilities of such horrendous events. By banning books that write about these tough dark happenings... how could you not feel like you are supporting the issue by hiding it? We need to be aware, our children need to be aware. Do not take that freedom away from them!</span><br />

<span style="color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 14pt;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 14pt;">However, we as parents... yes both of us are parents, need to be responsible as well. Parents should feel inclined to be apart of their child's life. We are charged with providing them with strong values and teaching them about life, especially the rights and wrongs. Censorship is not teaching them about rights and wrongs or providing them with a strong value to live by. Censorship covers up an issue and brushes it under the table. What!! Why would anyone want to do that? It is just outrageous! I feel like banging my head on a brick wall.</span></blockquote><span style="color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 14pt;"></span><br />

It is a whole new ballgame when you talk about something that shouldn't be talked about. Pushing the unwritten line of comfort. People, we are unique in the fact that we can can think and have emotions, even in the way our brain presents certain issues as taboo. Why does a thing or event have to be classified in such a unnatural way?</span><span style="color: black; font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">You said it, Jen! This schmuck should get of his duff and read the book. Banning such a book is just another way taboo exerts its power over us. I'm using a Harry Potter comparison because most people have see the movie/s or read the book/s. For example, Voldermort. Fear in a name creates fear in the thing itself. We sure do that! </span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">Stop sweeping important issues under the proverbial rug and talk to your children. If the kids of today were taught what to expect out in the world, good and bad, they will be equipped with the power they need.</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br />

That reason is that my feelings could totally change by the end of the book.

Denise MacGregor knows all too well what lurks in the shadows - her best friend is half-vampire Cat Crawfield - and she has already lost more than the average human could bear. But her family's dark past is wrapped in secrets and shrouded in darkness - and a demon shapeshifter has marked Denise as prey. Now her survival depends on an immortal who craves a taste of her.<br /><br />He is Spade, a powerful, mysterious vampire who has walked the earth for centuries and is now duty-bound to protect this endangered, alluring human - even if it means destroying his own kind. Denise may arouse his deepest hungers, but Spade knows he must fight his urge to have her as they face the demon nightmare together...<br /><br />Because once the first drop of crimson falls, they will both be lost.</span>(From Goodreads.com)</blockquote><div style="text-align: center;"><a style="font-family: trebuchet ms; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" href="http://s797.photobucket.com/albums/yy252/jentheunknown/Review%20Stuff/?action=view&current=flourish1-4.jpg" target="_blank"><img style="width: 152px; height: 80px;" src="http://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy252/jentheunknown/Review%20Stuff/flourish1-4.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >This particular book by Jeaniene Frost, for all those who don't know, is an offshoot of her Night Huntress series starring Cat and Bones.

This story is told from Spade and Denise's point of views and it is quite fascinating. I do love Spade I've decided.<br /><br />The shower scene is one of my favorite. It's Spade alone, in the shower, in the middle of a Las Vegas hotel suite dripping with water. Denise is in the bed attempting to not be turned on. It's quite fabulous because we all know he is using his naught body to seduce her.

Any and all those who would listen are fully aware that I am Team Peeta. I suppose now that the trilogy is finally at an end, maybe it doesn't matter, however, I disagree. I'm still in love with Peeta and his lovely blond curls. He's a man of different faces, but he knows what he wants in the end - Katniss. He will fight to the death to keep her alive and even in the face of extreme odds, Katniss comes out at the top of his heart (*brainwashing moot* - clue). What could be sexier than that in a fictional boyfriend?!! I seriously get all kinds of yummy images of Peeta when I read these books, some of the best coming from Catching Fire...*purrrrrr*.

Well, I would say total bollocks on the part of the Capitol, but still excellent for the plot itself. I've said it once and I'll say it again *licks cone* nothing is better than the gruesome murdering of minors....I mean, what could be better than an axe in the throat of some fifteen year old?! Okay, so that might be a bit dreary, but it does make for excellent plot content. And what an amazing tale Collins wove for us through 3 fabulous books! One of my favorite scenes is from Catching Fire with Katniss and our dear Peeta by the lake. Those kissing scenes had me all sorts of hot and sweating.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/276/34836D28FC4D10000DA8CB0D8A3B70CE.png" style="border: 0pt none ! important; background-color: transparent; background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-attachment: scroll; background-position: 0% 50%; -moz-background-size: auto auto; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" /></a></span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">This most compelling book has grabbed the attention of so many readers. The buzz about this Battle Royale has simply had my ears ringing. And oh my, the fabulously strong and modest Peeta had me interested and wondering what twist would develop next.

Although, there is so much from that last book I don't want to divulge just in case someone has not had the pleasure of reading it, but man Peeta really took some crazy ass torture if you know what I'm saying. By the end of the book I had so many feelings raging through me, I really just wanted to hug Peeta and possibly throw him against the wall and have my way with him. Those blond curls would be so fun to run my fingers through. *licks lips*</span><br /></div></div> <p style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;" align="center"><strong style="font-weight: normal;"><a href="http://s797.photobucket.com/albums/yy252/jentheunknown/?action=view&current=BlackDisasterFairy2-1.png" target="_blank"><img style="width: 213px; height: 42px;" alt="Photobucket" src="http://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy252/jentheunknown/BlackDisasterFairy2-1.png" border="0" /></a></strong></p><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"><strong style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">Photo Picks:<br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:100%;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 102, 102);">I admit that this has been a most difficult choice.
