books that sucker you in: the animal



The fact I’m a sucker for a veterinarian story was probably a good indication that I can’t resist a story incorporating animals either.

Swear to God.

Put a dog on a book cover and I’m like a friggin’ 5 year old; “Puppy! Want!”

And don’t even get me started about dragons…

    I'm pretty sure that we had a vote on this and agreed that it would always be your turn. *kiss, kiss*

  2. Unknown's avatar Chris says:

    Um, no. Nope. Have I mentioned how stubborn I am?

  3. Unknown's avatar Kris says:

    Fine!

    Let's get Tam to do it.

  4. Unknown's avatar Tam says:

    What, what? What the hell am I doing? I'm not writing anything from a cat's POV but I might be convinced to read it.

    Okay, I looked, that cover is so damn adorable. If you buy it for me I will read it. 😀 How's that for sacrifice.

  5. Unknown's avatar Kris says:

    Chris told me that she would buy it for you, Tam.

  6. Unknown's avatar Chris says:

    Check your email, Tam. 😀

  7. Unknown's avatar Kris says:

    *Wow, my psychic abilities are on fire today. Let's see what else I can do…*

  8. Unknown's avatar Chris says:

    Well, Kris, I value Tam enough to spring for a $1.25 book for her. 😉

  9. Unknown's avatar Kris says:

    *wipes tears from eyes*

    You're the best fucking friend ever.

    Now where's mine?!

  10. Unknown's avatar Chris says:

    *smiles sweetly*

  11. Unknown's avatar Kris says:

    I knew you loved Tam more than me. 😦

  12. Unknown's avatar Chris says:

    You said you didn't want to read it! 😀

  13. Unknown's avatar Kris says:

    I'm not speaking to you any more.

  14. Unknown's avatar Chris says:

    That's probably for the best, based on how confused I am now.

  15. Unknown's avatar Tam says:

    So do I make you wait until Saturday for the review?

  16. Unknown's avatar Chris says:

    What's the take-home message of the review?

  17. Unknown's avatar Tam says:

    It had potential, Gracie is cute as a button, but when Gracie was napping it lost some of the lustre.

  18. Unknown's avatar Chris says:

    I look forward to the full review on Saturday!

  19. Unknown's avatar Kris says:

    Tam, can you please address in your review whether Gracie's voice was authentic or not? I think that this is an important issue readers will want to know.

  20. Unknown's avatar Tam says:

    Yes, I think Gracie's voice was appropriately kittenish, based on my experience with kittens. However, never having been one myself, I can't say for certain.

    It's only 6 pages by the way, so not a lot of time for kitten character development and she does nap an awful lot as kittens are wont to do.

  21. Unknown's avatar Chris says:

    Also, Val's sure to wonder if the author bio was written by a cat.

    LOL! My veri word is furproph. Fur Prophet?

  22. Unknown's avatar Tam says:

    No author bio. In fact it's a weird layout, which I'll discuss.

  23. Unknown's avatar Sean Kennedy says:

    hdsmith, thanks! Glad you liked it!

    But if you've converted, you have to say who your team is. (If it's Collingwood, we shall never speak of it again.)

  24. Unknown's avatar hdsmith says:

    Carn the Dockers!!!

  25. Unknown's avatar Kris says:

    Woot! You go, Heidi!

    Freo are playing the Saints today. It should be a great game.
