I enjoyed getting another look into Zsadist. I was glad that he finally had someone to talk to about the horrors he faced while a slave. Phury could have benefited from therapy too. I also like how Wrath described the feelings of a bonded male. It explains a lot of the possessiveness, dedication and fierceness the vampires display over mates. 3w

Laughterhp I totally forgot to read this one in December. 3w

ShananigansReads The heartbreak I felt for Z when the laser removal didn‘t work. (It did not lesson as a reread) He handled it so beautifully. It shows how far he has come. I also love his relationship with Nalla, once he allowed it. She is totally a daddy‘s girl. 3w

julesG @TheSpineView I agree, Phury should get therapy too. Well, they all could. 3w

julesG @ShananigansReads He was willing to take the chance and get the tattoos removed. Even though it didn't work, it shows how much he has grown. 3w

TheSpineView @julesG Yes, all of them have some sort of issue. 3w

TheSpineView @Laughterhp No worries. 3w

#BDBBuddyRead #BDBBookClub #BDB

Lover Avenged is the next book we will be reading in January. This is Rehvenge's story though I am sure we will get more on the other characters too. It is 527 pages long and has 74 chapters which means reading roughly 2.5 chapters a day or 17 pages a day. My reading schedule will be: Week one - read 18 chapters, week two - 18 chapters, week 3 - 19 chapters and the remaining chapters the last week of January. Enjoy

TheSpineView Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the tag list. @PageShifter @Laughterhp @julesG @ShananigansReads @DuckOfDoom @InkedBookworm13 @tdrosebud @CoverToCoverGirl @StayCurious @BooksNBowls @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks 1mo

TheSpineView I hope everyone enjoyed Father Fine. It was a quick read. Open discussion will start in a couple of days. 1mo

SpeculativeFemale Oh, I started this series years ago and kind of lost track at some point. I should really go back and read more of them eventually. Always too many books and too little time! 1mo

Also, regarding Payne, how can you keep someone locked away? Lots of loose ends here. I know there is more to come with regards to John, Tohr, Qhuin and Blay. Will we start getting to know Payne? This has me excited. 2mo

Wrath has Qhuinn become John's 'Ashtrux Nohtrum'. Retroactive, of course. A neat solution. Lash kills all his adopted vampire family. Z and Phury are the ones who find the family. Butch is called in to do forensics. John and Qhuinn go to Blay's house. John insists that they tell him what is wrong. Blay admits he is in love with Qhuinn. Lessors attack Blay's family while the guys are there and everyone is safe.

TheSpineView Other families are attacked and Qhuinn's Mother, Father and Sister are among the casualties. Though Qhuinn's brother is missing. Lash has plans to destabilize vampire society so it will be easier to destroy them. At the end of the night, John, Qhuinn and Blay find Cormia alone swimming in thebpool 2mo

TheSpineView When Phury discovers them, he orders Cormia to get out and go to his bedroom. He is acting as a bonded male and the boys notice. Phury has lost his shit and the bonded male in him is driven to marking her. Later, John goes to check on Cormia and misinterprets what he sees. He thinks Phury forced himself on her and beats up Phury. Phury feels guilty and goes to buy drugs. Rehv goes 'up north' and leaves his tithe and has to deal with the sympath... 2mo

TheSpineView He always gets poisoned each time and his body is not recovering like it used to. Lassiter, the Fallen angel, makes a deal with him. In return for a favor he heals Rehvenge. Lash is not like the other lessers, he is able to eat, drink and have sex. He also finds himself in jail and he decides it is the perfect to recruit new lessers. @julesG @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @tdrosebud @InkedBookworm13 @PageShifter @Laughterhp @ShananigansReads 2mo

TheSpineView I am not surprised about Lash. He is in the perfect place to wreck havoc. Will his need for revenge make his reckless?? The Vampire society doesn't seem prepared like they should be. I also feel think this is not the end of Blay and Qhuinn. 2mo

Laughterhp They are not prepared for organized lessers at all! It‘s crazy because I feel like they‘ve been dealing with them forever but have been too wrapped up in all their own drama. 2mo

julesG For a society that has been fighting with the lessers since forever they really haven't done much to protect themselves against them. Lash being drunk on his power was to be expected. He's a bully. 2mo

Jumped ahead and read the book for December already.

The novella talks about what we don't get to see in Bella and Z's full novel, the few months that lead to the epilogue of Lover Awakened.

I'm looking forward to the discussion. There was one teeny tiny remark Z made that had me nearly growl at the book with fury.
