It seems a long time ago now that I first read Shiver -- the first book in the Wolves of Mercy Falls trilogy. But looking back I started it on the plane ride to BEA and finished it there in the conference center, fingers gripping the cover tightly, while sitting on the floor in one of the many autograph lines. And now it's May again and BEA is right around the corner and I emerge from my recent and nasty reading slump stupor to find a copy of Linger sitting in my mailbox like a glove thrown down in the dirt. "I will be the one to pull you out," it whispers to me slyly. "Just open me up and take a sip. I promise--one sip is all it will take." And I look at it with fear and longing written all over my face. "You promise?" I ask intently. "Because it's been a long walk in the cold and I'm not sure I can take another disappointment." "Just open me up," it says, confidence written all over its cover. And so I do. And everythin
Nerd love is so cute! That should be a Valentines day card :)
ReplyDeleteI love this! If you love stormtroopers doing funny things, Google "stormtroopers 365", stefan's flickr makes me laugh every day :)
ReplyDeleteRhiannon, lol. That's a great idea!
ReplyDeletepepsivanilla, ooh, I'll just go do that.
Completely unrelated comment, Angie. I'm reading a YA novel called A Brief History of Montmaray. I'm only 68 pages in but I think it's lovely so far. I've never read I Capture the Castle, but I pulled my copy off the shelf yesterday because a blurb on the back cover of Montmaray compares them. I haven't seen any blogger reviews of this, but the trade reviews have been very good. I think it's a book you'll enjoy. Karen
