In this post from a few days ago, Kira requested this: "How could something that furry have that many teeth?" Prompt for Anita Blake, Harry Potter, or any of the cop/forensic shows. The idea took root and attacked me around 11 o'clock last night and wouldn't let me go to bed. It wasn't until 1:30 this morning that it released it's hold on me long ( Read more... )

I might have posted this one already awhile back, but if I did, I can't find it in my memories. So, I'm posting it anyway, cause I like having my fic recs all neat and ordered like.

The Key's Watcher and Dark Haven (found further down on the page) by Tara Keezer, a Buffy the Vampire Slayer AU that begins at the end of The Gift. In this case, ( Read more... )

Okay, so I ran across this fic last year some time and I absolutely adored it (to the point where I am about to read it again), but for some odd reason it never got added to my Memories. I decided that I really needed to remedy that.

The Key's Watcher and it's sequel Dark Haven (found further down the page) by Tara Keezer ( Read more... )

Have finished Obsidian Butterfly. I always hate finishing a series. It means I have nothing else to look forward too until I find another series that grabs my attention ( Read more... )

Maren sleepy. Went to bed at 1, woke up at 6, couldn't get back to sleep, had to work by 9, didn't get done until 3:30, went to Gramma's to give her hotel names for Cedar River, got gas cause car was running on fumes, looked for new swimming suit at Durhams and didn't find anything, got Chinese instead, came home, put on TV, took a nap, was woke ( Read more... )

Have just showered all the icky grass and grime and sun screen and all the stuff one acquires on one's skin when one mows the lawn away... Ahhh, it is good to be clean ( Read more... )

I want cake. Or cupcakes. You think it's worth it to drive 20 minutes into town and 20 minutes back just to get cake ( Read more... )

::whines:: I want the fifth Anita Blake book, dammit. Shoulda bought it last Amazon order along with the four I got in the box set. After Circus of the Damned, I remember liking Bloody Bones and Obsidian Butterfly the most. You know what? I shoulda just bought all nine, screw the cost and the crappy covers. I need an Anita Blake fix, dammit ( Read more... )

I love the first nine Anita Blake books. I really really do, and I love the old Ace covers that featured the St. Louis sky line or bloody paw prints under a full moon or ancient grave stones in a deserted cemetery. They made sense, they were linked to the story, and they were often times very expressive pieces of art. They gave you a preview of ( Read more... )

My life would so much easier if the Anita Blake books were numbered...
Okay, so more like my next few weeks of obsessive for-fun reading would be so much easier if the Anita Blake books were numbered. I knew Guilty Pleasures is first, but after that I can never remember which one came next. Took me three tries reading two chapters each to get it ( Read more... )
