Extreme Badasses of the 21st Century

Jun 02, 2009 22:07

It's hard to find a good badass these days. Zac Efron, Ed Westwick, and that dude who plays Captain Kirk in the new Star Trek movie all serve a purpose, but sometimes you're looking for a hero who kicks ass & takes names, shoots first and asks questions later, and loves his arsenal more than his hair gel ( Read more... )

I have been waiting for this book for so long it is not even funny. Without Sarah and her blog I would never have even heard of you, and sometimes it seems like I've been waiting for The Demon's Lexicon since before it was actually written.

I can't believe it's really out (even if I still have to wait for my copy to arrive from the US). And I'm glad you love it, because clearly you have awesome taste in books.

Omg, you are going to loooooooooove The Demon's Lexicon! And wow, how lucky am I that Sarah's blog led you here? I owe you & S. emails, don't think I've forgotten. ♥

I do have awesome taste in books! LOL. I will try not to lead you astray with my recs. ;)

Edited to fix initial. My brain had the right sound, wrong spelling. ^^;

I am so not selling my underwear on eBay. But I will buy this book this week.

That sales pitch is actually a variation on an old professor's, in reference to our reading list: "Beg, steal, or prostitute yourselves--but buy the books!!"

I can't wait to hear what you think! ♥

First, CHRIS PINE plays the new Kirk. CHRIS PINE. Don't forget it.

Two-- I love your badasses. Esp. Batman punching a dog.

C--I'm looking forward to reading TDL, but first I have to read a certain book by The Sarah Cross, which I had to order, and should receive any day now. Maybe any minute!

Ah yes, Chris Pine. I sense a fury in you ... I think that means I must remember it or else. ;)

Batman doesn't mess around!!

Eeee, I can't wait to hear what you think! Unless you hate it. In which case, rev up your lying skills in the name of our friendship! ♥

Ah, you lured me in with Jason Statham! *LOL* I can't believe that Batman hit an old man!

The Demon's Lexicon sounds really interesting. I wonder if Border's will be on the same BS that they were on with your book on it's release date (I got it from Amazon.com btw).

Sell your underwear on ebay, peddle your plasma, or burgle your little sister's piggy bank, but buy this book!

Are you the best PR person or what?

Batman has a shady past! So does Statham, I'm pretty sure. Sensing a pattern here ...

Borders *should* have The Demon's Lexicon. If they don't, it's time to break out the double kick of justice!!

The best PR person, or the worst, LOL. ;D

I'll try to remember! I'm not allowed to buy any books until I knock off a few of my TBRs lol.

I know what that's like! I currently have a TBR tower. I long for the days when it was only a pile, LOL.
