Today is something new on the Twilight Tuesday site, it's the first ever Fandom Friday. You can read all the challenge details here. The challenge is book 1 of The Black Dagger Brotherhood series called....Dark Lover. Angela and Cele, I thought of you guys when I saw today's challenge because this is the book I bought when we went to the mall for the Archiver's trip in Kentucky. Ya know, Daaaark Lovah.
Anyway, I spent most of the morning digging around on the computer looking for inspiration photos. It was so hard to look through all those pictures of handsome men to find someone who represented Wrath to me. Poor me. :) I made an 8x8 digital scrapbook page that I plan on printing and putting in a scrapbook. I thought a scrapbook of fan art would be something cool to own or maybe I'm just a big nerd and am just now realizing this...
To give you some idea about Wrath, he's the last purebred vampire on the planet and the unascended king of his race. Wrath is a warrior first and a king last. He doesn't want to sit idly on the throne and do nothing but be adored while his people are being hunted. He meets Beth and, well, love brings complications. Wrath is forced to open his eyes, so to speak, and take his rightful place as king. I've given you a simplified synopsis of this book and hope you might pick it up one day and find out what all the fuss is about.
I've been thinking all day about what makes this series so appealing. I can't put my finger on one specific thing, it all just works for me. I remember looking around online at book reviews because I was trying to find some new authors to try and JR Ward kept coming up, so I set out to find the first book, Dark Lover. To me, each book in this series was better than the one before and made the series as a whole even more addicting.
I've blathered enough, so I'll leave you now and wish you a fabulous weekend!
A trip with Angela and Cele- HEAVEN!!! You don't know what bunco is?!?! Such a fun game- it's a dice game and so much harder to explain then it is to play..... actually it's a game that is easier to play once you've had a few glasses of wine! SO MUCH FUN!!!
