patiently waiting for The Lion by Nelson DeMille due out next June. Just got his newsletter- really love this man
and his sarcastic wit. If you aren't familiar with his work check out his website lots of good books pick from.0 -

Yes, I checked to see when it was published and it's this year for paperback, hardback last year. Not too far through it yet and not quite sure. I really like the ones I've read with Rebus in and this is (so far) more based around the people committing the crime. I'm not totally into it yet but I usually enjoy his books so I'm giving it some time.
I got it on offer with a Jeffrey Deaver book 2 for £8 in Morrisons (oops never checked if you were over here, if you're not ignore that bit)<a href="http://s952.photobucket.com/albums/ae8/catkinson_2009/?action=view¤t=domo.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i952.photobucket.com/albums/ae8/catkinson_2009/domo.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>0 -

Yeah, I agree. Both were very annoying. I thought that it was just because they were teenaged girlsHowever, I think that both author's successfully reflected the shallowness and selfishness of many seventeen year-old girls :roll:
I found the fifth Harry Potter book the same. All whiny, and "what about me, me, me!" So, I guess the explains the appeal for many young adults.
On a more important note . . . You're writing a Vampire book:shock: :P :P :P :P I do hope that you will publish, and soon!!!!!

yeah i thought perhaps elena was just a teenage girl horning after a guy. bella i found insipid.
oh and i totally agree with you on .. the half blood prince
oh no not a vampire story per se. the main character isnt a vamp. shes somethings else. but there are vamps in it and they do play a sizeable role. truth be told ive been working on it on and off for several years. i just get distracted way too easily.hear my name
