I should be in bed but I can't sleep ... I doped myself with painkillers and anticonvulsants as it is the time of the month again. Most of the time I can take it, but almost all three to four months the pain gets so hard to bear that I wish I'd die. Good thing Olly drove to the chemists and got me some stuff.
But man, I really am fed up with being a woman ... I wish I'd get into menopause and be done with it :-(

Yes, I am definitly hooked. Already ordered the next 5 books and can´t wait until there here. Actually, I like all the main charakters very much, they do come over as real - maybe not Roarke, he is too great - but absulutly enjoyable. I do like, that even though the charakters have their past and their problems, not everything they do is influenced by it and that they try to overcome this past.

Concerning the Nora Roberts Novels, I go carefully. I do like a little bit of mystery-magic stuff, but not to much. I prefer it in a reality context - like "it could be magic, but maybe there is a rational explanation". Good thing is, with all the books she has written and is still writing, there will be books galore for me to read. A very encouraging prospect.

Hope you feel better!!! I certainly will call you soon, I desperatly need help with this internet thing, but at the moment we have still so much else going on, which is higher on my priority list. I am thinking October.
Until soon

Call whenever you have the time, Alice :)

I have finished Vision In Death (the latest) and can't wait for the next to come out in February.
I love Peabody and McNab :) And Mavis is absolutely Mag What I love about the story arc is that all main as well as background characters not only are well written but evolve as well from book to book, may it be Chief Tribble, Sommerset, Feeney, even Charles the LC with his Lt. Sugar, they all grow continuously.
And it is good to see Eve evolve as well and hearing Roarke say HIS COP.

Ack forgot about the Nora Roberts stories.
Nora has a strong slant of magic in most of her series. There are also stand-alone mystery thrillers, like River's End and Lawless which are just plain vanilla no magic mysteries.
