Diving back into this one. I need a break from the Scandal editing madness. Here, have a teaser:
Hell’s Kitchen,
New York City
I sat on the rooftop as the coming sun infected the heavens with her light. Night fled her arrival, and I mourned his loss like the dying of a lover, for he had held me close and whispered encouragements to me while I’d strained and labored beneath him these last few hour...

This collection of essays is a relatively quick read at 130 pages. And no, it’s not just 130 pages of funny anecdotes depicting unwitting men explaining things to Solnit that she already knows. In fact, after the introductory essay, there’s no furthe ...more |

“Never attempt to apply logic to madness, for there is none; it is the nature of madness to be illogical.”

“I wanted to throw off the chains that bound me and give my entire being to someone. I wanted to know what it felt like to love another so much that the whole world came crashing down around me when it ended. I wanted obsession. I wanted madness. I wanted something all-consuming. And now that I realized it, I didn’t think that I would ever be the same again. And that terrified me.”

Oh yeah, Richard is an abusive trainwreck. You want to look away...but it's just too damn WTF. He had all of Beatrice's worst traits & nothing to balance them. (Yeah, there's more incest in #2. None in #3.)
The Favored Child & Meridon -- Beatrice's daughter & granddaughter, respectively. I wanted to feed the villain in TFC through a woodchipper.
That's too bad. Hope it's not stressing you out too much. In the meantime, I will be starting Betrayal!
Hey, is Scandal out yet!? I've been looking for it on kobo, but will just as happily buy it hard copy :)
Thank you for the wonderful destruction idea.... I am using some of the pages for texturing in my newest painting :)
I actually find this irritating. https://www.goodreads.com/author_blog...
But in other news I read half of the Highlander series over the weekend and I think I might be really be in love with a PNR character. This is NOT where I saw my book boyfriend list going so I'm gonna need a book recommendation to get the MacKelter men out of my brain.
Thank you, you awesome and super adorable friend.You made my day with your Fifty Shades review.
You, your boyfriend and your cats are all fantastic! <3
HAPPY VDAY YOUUUUUUUU. That fiancé of yours better get you drunk and provide all the flowers and then you can dupe him into buying you books because LOVE.
Thanks for accepting me Navessa,I've been dying to read your book,Scandal :D . Can't wait to put my hands around it. Happy reading!
Exactly. My beast has his hopefully last surgery on Thursday and then is leaving for Ontario (to go see his grandma)on Friday! So we've been trying to get all the pre-christmasy stuff out of the way BECAUSE he doesn't get back til the 23rd. Ugh, so much to do and no time.
Oh it's totally understandable :), no need to apologize! I understand all about co-dependant stupors :P Also, it's that time of the year when everything goes insane.
Hey *waves* I'm not sure but as far as I remember from last year .....it's your birthday today! HAPPY BIRTHDAY Cory! All the best for you and enjoy every minute of every day on the fullest! :)
You should ALWAYS drink and review ^___^I have to save my favorite quotes somewhere - I've even considered adding them to the Goodreads quote database ;)
ugh you know how RL can be sometimes (read: most of the time). Glad to be back on GR tho, now that things irl finally quiet down a bit. Phew. Anyway hope you're doing great, bb ^_^(view spoiler)
I'd been away from GR far too long to notice this significant change on your GR acc. But hello thar, miss you gorgeous <333
Hiya! So we finally made it official, huh? Just as well—you can be an asshole & according to some, I can be a total bitch. *fist bump*

I was just coming here to post this!!!!
YOU ARE SO VERY WELCOME! *gets tackled*I just hope my feedback is useful in some way. :) Also, damn you for creating James. My heart is forever ruined. :( lol
What the hell. I just noticed that you have 5+ chapters out of Scandal while I was obviously living under a rock. *crazy jig*
CORY!
Dayumm! What's been going on then? If I may ask? :O
I'm happy to be back too, it's been too long.
Hahaha no worries, if someone is a bad clone, it's me! I thought I maybe didn't send it or something like that. I'm glad that isn't the case! And I was MIA for far too long, but now ''the band'' (AKA you and me) are back together, lol!
