Double Down, This Rough Magic, Snowball in Hell, Petit Morts, Holmes & Moriarity, Dangerous Ground . . .

OMG!! Doing happy dance! Swede!! I downloaded This Rough Magic all by myself!! Go! Me!!

Yay you indeed

Report back as you read, you two!!

Happy release day!

I am about 60% done. Nice story, so far.

Done.

Wow, that was fast!

I assume it must have been good if you devoured it so quickly. What did you think?

Brilliant, as usual - some habits are good, worthwhile habits for sure

I liked it, a lot. Made me want to find the Thin Man movies.

My hubby just finished The Thin Man.

I just went on amazon and bought the whole collection of The Thin Man movies for 39.00. I know what I will be doing this week-end!

I finished Critic's Choice. It may be one of my favorites of the Petits.

I'm just starting This Rough Magic.

I loved Critic's Choice. The Screaming Room.

That guy would have freaked me out!

I want to try & fit one more Josh Lanyon book in before the chat. Which one?
The Dickens With Love
A Vintage Affair
Mexican Heat

Sorry - I haven't got to any of those .... sssssh don't let anyone else know

I won't say a word Think I might try The Dickens With Love in that case.

I was going to say The Dickens With Love. It's another Christmas story.

It was a good pick. A beautiful xmas love story.

I read the first H&M book, liked it but didn't love it. There was some great humor but I think the problem was that I didnt particularly like Kit's character; he just seemed so self-involved and like a spoiled kid??

So instead of doing book 2 got Fair Game which I really enjoyed!! So what should be next?

Part of the point of the H&M series seems to be Kit "growing up." I didn't view it so much as immaturity but more a type of mid-life crisis caused by his lack of private and professional success and growth. He has a long way to go.

The Darkling Thrush Sabby I loved this book. IMO the romance/relationship could have used a little more attention but I really enjoyed the characters and the world. I'm really looking forward to another DT book.

I really liked the first H&M book. Kit is a bit annoying but like FLF said, it's a growing process. I found these to be very funny.

Well, we all read something different into the stories. I thought Kit's mid-life crises, or immaturity, was what made the story so funny. I loved every page.

Yeah I'm not sure if I truly didn't like Kit or if I didnt give him a fair chance because I was missing Adrien..... , we'll see. I liked J.X!!

I'll try Darkling Thrush showme, how about the Dangerous Ground series??

I enjoy Dangerous Ground.

Kit's internal monologue borders on bitchy. He is a whole world away from Adrien.
