Out of the Woods worked for me this time. <br /><br />Everyone is just melting everywhere it seems these days. It's far too hot to be healthy.Tamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15495571402942021799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005569873582910532.post-46720378158708317032011-07-21T11:08:06.143-04:002011-07-21T11:08:06.143-04:00Let me start by telling you how much I love the ho...Let me start by telling you how much I love the hotness with the long hair on your side bar. I think I must have lost about an hour of work time this morning just gazing at him. lol<br /><br />I really loved the the first Fun with Dick and Shane book, I'll have to read this second one. And now a 3rd I see from the comments. Wow, I'm behind. lol<br /><br />Out of the Woods sounds interesting. That's not normally my type of book either but sometimes they work for me. I'll have to check this one out.<br /><br />It's been really hot here as well. We seem to go a week where we're melting and then have a week off with milder temps. Then back to "hot like the sun" temps. This week is the latter. lol Try to stay cool.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05320961506471746567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005569873582910532.post-84780015354776178462011-07-20T16:13:55.934-04:002011-07-20T16:13:55.934-04:00I must get the Achilles one Lily.

It's...He does look hot doesn't he Val? :-)<br /><br />It's a very interesting story with a lot of humour, for instance Tarin is completely freaked by his first kiss as he's sure Garrick is trying to eat him alive. His thought process is hilarious at times. I was left with a lot of questions but was glad to hear there is a book coming this fall, so hopefully that will clear up some of the mysteries.Tamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15495571402942021799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005569873582910532.post-9661486190075450582011-07-18T11:55:52.921-04:002011-07-18T11:55:52.921-04:00That's a hilarious photo of the poor overheate...That's a hilarious photo of the poor overheated puppy!

It will be in the 90's here today, but I can't complain because it was oddly cool this weekend.<br /><br />Brown has a third book chronicling his story: <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11254654-achilles-and-the-houseboy" rel="nofollow">Achilles and the Houseboy</a><br /><br />Plus, his journals are posted on his <a href="http://www.gillibran-brown.com/diary.php" rel="nofollow">website</a>. I love the stories. Sometimes Gilli needs to be swatted, but I think Daddy Shane needs a good smack too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
