    Hi Becca,

    The last two books made my reading list because I was curious about what others close to me are reading these days.

    I like OUTLANDER but now I'm starting to think, "Really? Has anyone ever had that much sex that many times a day for that extended a period time without ever a day off?" The time travel aspect is quickly becoming the easier, less fantastical suspension of belief.

    Anyway, I'm only about half way done. We'll see what comes.
    Really, that's the best part!! We girls like our sex books, ahem... I mean historical romances with elements of time travel! (What else is a horny Scot supposed to do in the 1700s? There wasn't even internet yet??)
    Wanted: Human skin edition of The Book of the Dead. Will accept PC copy.

    Erin, are you enjoying your reread of the DT series? How's it going? I notice you didn't add TWTTKH into the mix yet...

    I'm loving it! I finished Song of Susannah last night and I liked it 10x better than when I read it last a few years back. I wanted to be totally refreshed with re-reading the series before I read TWTTKH, so I'm going to read it after DT7. I can't wait. I'm shocked someone as impatient as me could wait that long to read a new Tower book, but I had already committed to the re-read and I'm sticking with it!

    Hi Becca,

    The last two books made my reading list because I was curious about what others close to me are reading these days.

    I like OUTLANDER but now I'm starting to think, "Really? Has anyone ever had that much sex that many times a day for that extended a period time without ever a day off?" The time travel aspect is quickly becoming the easier, less fantastical suspension of belief.

    Anyway, I'm only about half way done. We'll see what comes.
    Really, that's the best part!! We girls like our sex books, ahem... I mean historical romances with elements of time travel! (What else is a horny Scot supposed to do in the 1700s? There wasn't even internet yet??)
    Time travel and sex. I think I need to keep an eye out for a copy of this book! (Make that 2, as it also includes Scots, and we all know how much Jennifer lurves Scots. Still working on my Scottish accent, btw...)

    Quick question, and this is something both Jen and I would probably like to know: do any Scots ask, at one point, "And who's the yahoos?" or something along those lines? Or even any references to a Jamie McCrimmon? Because that would definitely make it an instant read for us!

    Erin, I thought maybe you'd try reading TWTTKH between DT 4 and 5, the order in which King says it should be placed. (Not that it will really make much difference, I suspect.)

    Brice, I thought you were reading, THE GAME OF THRONES. Am I mistaken, or did it get sidelined?

    What? There are eight of these books?!


    Ok, the characters took a week or so off to recharge their batteries. I feel better about the story now. Still reading...

    Well, I think it's settled, then...? I'll have to look for them. They do actually sound quite interesting. And yes, James...my birthday is in less than 4 months...time to start brainstorming gifts! and I do so love receiving books as presents...
