Michelle, the Bookshelf Stalker’s Reviews > Discount Armageddon > Status Update

I hate weekends like this where I get no time to read (or clean, or finish up my work but those are minor compared to reading). I want to read this!!!!

hmmmm... In this book, "you don't want to wake the sleeping dragon" is NOT a figure of speech!

I can see how McGuire is not for everyone... she loves her info but I love this book knowing there are plenty more to come (I hope at least). What a superstar world builder.

"Anyone who doesn't believe that dance can be a form of combat should spend some time watching more well-endowed dancers trying to contain their cleavage with nothing more than adhesive and attitude."

Verity--- "Ah" I sat up again, grinning at him. "That's pretty much true. We're all crazy. But crazy has its benefits." "What benefits are those?" he asked warily. "Crazy gets all the knives."

Dominic... flustered by Verity... "I--you--they--" Verity's response "Pronouns are only useful when you combine them with other words. I have a few I can give you, if you're at a loss."

OK... it's official... Seanan/Mira ... YOU are brilliant. Also, snorting at work is not attractive so read at your own risk! Meaning?? This book has too many damn laugh out loud moments.

OMG... I'm so going to get caught reading this while "working".

Verity complaining about her uniform (the one you see on the cover)- "No matter how many times I put this on, I can't get past the part where I look like a hooker." "No, you don't, honey." said Carol. "hookers get better tips."

Verity talking to the mice (who worship her as a goddess)- "That isn't an answer." I planted my hands on my hips. "Was there a reason for shoving the gummy bears off the counter? Did they tell you they were suicidal? On second thought," I raised a hand, palm out, "don't answer that. If the candy is talking, I don't want to know."
