You look pretty pathetic right now, you know that?&amp;quot; She turned away and waved to the salesgirl. &amp;quot;Excuse me, but my friend here needs to be measured for a bra. Her tits are overflowing.&amp;quot; Her voice was loud enough to carry into the mall.

And the name? Remy Summore? Ram-me-some-more? Get it?&amp;quot; &amp;quot;I thought your name was REM-me, not RAM-me.&amp;quot; She shrugged. &amp;quot;Remy is spelled prettier. Besides, it&amp;rsquo;s porn, not rocket science.

Det som f&amp;aring;ngade min uppm&amp;auml;rksamhet var f&amp;ouml;rst&amp;aring;s det&amp;nbsp;g&amp;aring;tfullt vackra&amp;nbsp;omslaget. &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; Luce blir tv&amp;aring;ngsintagen p&amp;aring; en ungdomsanstalt efter att hennes pojkv&amp;auml;n d&amp;ouml;r i en mystisk eldsolycka d&amp;auml;r Luces oskuld ifr&amp;aring;gas&amp;auml;tts.

<title>Here comes 2010</title>
<description>Den senaste tiden har det varit en hel del virrvarr. F&amp;ouml;rutom att jag (&amp;auml;ntligen) flyttat ur f&amp;ouml;r&amp;auml;ldrahemmet s&amp;aring;.. har jag &amp;auml;ntligen&amp;nbsp;flyttat ur f&amp;ouml;r&amp;auml;ldrahemmet. Bloggen har varit totalt nere vad g&amp;auml;ller updates, men 2010 &amp;aring;terkommer jag med nya tag. Har l&amp;auml;st en hel del nya b&amp;ouml;cker, men man f&amp;aring;r inte gl&amp;ouml;mma gamla godingar.

S&amp;aring; l&amp;aring;t det bli&amp;nbsp;ditt ny&amp;aring;rsl&amp;ouml;fte. Ha ett gott nytt 2010!</description>

<title>On The Edge</title>
<description>P&amp;aring; sistone har jag tagit ett bloggbreak. Men jag har&amp;nbsp;knappast sl&amp;ouml;sat bort tiden! Jag kan lugnt s&amp;auml;ga att min TBR-lista (To Be Read) v&amp;auml;xer s&amp;aring; det knakar, vilket inte n&amp;ouml;dv&amp;auml;ndigtvis &amp;auml;r en bra sak (detta uttalande kommer fr&amp;aring;n mig och solen g&amp;aring;r fortfarande upp i &amp;ouml;st). Har precis v&amp;auml;nt sista bladet i On The Edge, f&amp;ouml;rsta boken i en&amp;nbsp;helt ny serie fr&amp;aring;n min (ok, en av mina) favoritf&amp;ouml;rfattare&amp;nbsp;- Ilona Andrews. S&amp;aring; jag gav den en chans. &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; On The Edge handlar om Rose Drayton och hennes tv&amp;aring; yngre br&amp;ouml;der som lever i ett vilt dysfunktionellt&amp;nbsp;samh&amp;auml;lle mellan: The Broken (v&amp;aring;r icke-magiska v&amp;auml;rld) och The Weird (ett samh&amp;auml;lle best&amp;aring;ende av magi och medeltida sociala hierarkier). De som lever i The Edge -&amp;nbsp;mellan dessa tv&amp;aring; v&amp;auml;rldar &amp;auml;r en blandning av m&amp;auml;nniskor med olika grader av magisk kraft och f&amp;ouml;rm&amp;aring;ga. Rose &amp;auml;r fattig men&amp;nbsp;har stark magi i blodet. Hon tillh&amp;ouml;r en av f&amp;aring; i The Edge&amp;nbsp;som kan forma den vita blixten (r&amp;ouml;d &amp;auml;r svagast).&amp;nbsp;Hennes f&amp;ouml;rm&amp;aring;ga medf&amp;ouml;r dock att m&amp;aring;nga aristokrater&amp;nbsp;avundas henne. Detta och ett flertal kidnappningsf&amp;ouml;rs&amp;ouml;k&amp;nbsp;medf&amp;ouml;r att Rose &amp;auml;r&amp;nbsp;ytterst&amp;nbsp;misst&amp;auml;nksam mot fr&amp;auml;mlingar: &amp;Auml;r det en slump att onda varelser invaderar hennes hem f&amp;ouml;r att stj&amp;auml;la magi och f&amp;ouml;rst&amp;ouml;ra det lilla samh&amp;auml;lle hon lever i? Och att en aristokratisk&amp;nbsp;krigare fr&amp;aring;n The Weird, Declan Camarine vill gifta sig med henne? Fast&amp;auml;n Rose g&amp;aring;ng p&amp;aring; g&amp;aring;ng avvisar Declan, m&amp;aring;ste de tv&amp;aring; samarbeta om de vill r&amp;auml;dda hennes bror och resten av&amp;nbsp;inv&amp;aring;narna i&amp;nbsp;The Edge. Nedan f&amp;ouml;ljer ett par utdrag som fick mig att skratta och som jag hoppas bevarar sin rolighet trots att de &amp;auml;r tagna ur sitt sammanhang: &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;ldquo;Eat slowly,&amp;rdquo; the blueblood said. &amp;ldquo;Don&amp;rsquo;t cut your food with the fork. Cut it with the knife, and make the pieces small enough so you can answer a question without having to swallow first.&amp;rdquo; Why me? &amp;ldquo;Right. Any other tips?&amp;rdquo; Her sarcasm whistled right over his head. &amp;ldquo;Yes. Look at me and not at your plate. If you have to look at your plate, glance at it occasionally.&amp;rdquo; Rose put down her fork. &amp;ldquo;Lord Submarine . . .&amp;rdquo; &amp;ldquo;Camarine.&amp;rdquo; &amp;ldquo;Whatever.&amp;rdquo; &amp;lt; - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - &amp;ldquo;I want you to swear that you won&amp;rsquo;t attempt to molest me.&amp;rdquo; He looked her over very slowly. &amp;ldquo;If I chose to molest you, it wouldn&amp;rsquo;t be an attempt. And you would be most enthusiastic about it.&amp;rdquo; Rose felt heat rise to her cheeks. &amp;ldquo;On second thought, I&amp;rsquo;m not sure that my house is big enough to contain you and your ego. Few places are. Promise or sleep outside.&amp;rdquo; &amp;ldquo;If you insist.&amp;rdquo; &amp;ldquo;I would prefer to hear the words.&amp;rdquo; He sighed. &amp;ldquo;I promise not to molest you, no matter how tempting.&amp;rdquo; &amp;ldquo;Or the children.&amp;rdquo; The smile vanished from his face. &amp;ldquo;I&amp;rsquo;m a noble of the house Camarine. I don&amp;rsquo;t molest children. I won&amp;rsquo;t be insulted&amp;mdash;&amp;rdquo; &amp;ldquo;I don&amp;rsquo;t care,&amp;rdquo; she interrupted. &amp;ldquo;You can beat your chest with your fist in righteous indignation, or you can swear and sleep inside. Your choice.&amp;rdquo; &amp;ldquo;You&amp;rsquo;re the most infuriating woman I have ever met. I swear not to molest the boys,&amp;rdquo; he ground out. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - &amp;gt; &amp;rdquo;She handed him a glass of water and two Aleve gelcaps. &amp;ldquo;They&amp;rsquo;re anti-inflammatories. They will dull the pain a little bit and keep down swelling and redness. Swallow the pills, don&amp;rsquo;t chew.&amp;rdquo; &amp;ldquo;Well, I thought I&amp;rsquo;d stick them into my nose and impersonate a walrus, but if you insist, I&amp;rsquo;ll swallow them.&amp;rdquo; &amp;lt; - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Se f&amp;ouml;rfattarens hemsida &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.ilona-andrews.com/&quot;&gt;h&amp;auml;r.&lt;/a&gt; Kategori: Urban fantasy, K&amp;auml;rlek.</description>

Samtidigt uppt&amp;auml;cker hon existensen av andra &amp;ouml;vernaturliga varelser, vampyrer och h&amp;auml;xor, som alla vill&amp;nbsp;utnyttja henne f&amp;ouml;r egna syften. &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; &amp;bull; Greywalker &amp;auml;r en deckare som anv&amp;auml;nder paranormala aspekt f&amp;ouml;r att l&amp;ouml;sa brott&amp;nbsp;och andra r&amp;auml;ttsfall. Konceptet&amp;nbsp;&amp;auml;r&amp;nbsp;annorlunda framlagt vad man &amp;auml;n f&amp;ouml;rst tror,&amp;nbsp;&amp;auml;n TV:s Ghostwhisperer. Men tyv&amp;auml;rr &amp;auml;r historien f&amp;ouml;r svag och&amp;nbsp;skildringen av ber&amp;auml;ttelsen&amp;nbsp;inte s&amp;auml;rskilt&amp;nbsp;skicklig. B&amp;ouml;rjan och slutet &amp;auml;r bra, mitten&amp;nbsp;utdragen och stundvis outh&amp;auml;rdlig i sin monotoni&amp;nbsp;samt Harpers st&amp;auml;ndiga f&amp;ouml;rnekelse och&amp;nbsp;missn&amp;ouml;je&amp;nbsp;med&amp;nbsp;sin situation. S&amp;aring; gott som alla magiska element&amp;nbsp;&amp;auml;r ytterst vagt beskrivna&amp;nbsp;och&amp;nbsp;diffusa. &amp;quot;The Grey&amp;quot; som &amp;auml;r en andev&amp;auml;rld mellan v&amp;auml;rldar m&amp;aring; vara en f&amp;ouml;rvirrande och dimmig plats, vilket f&amp;ouml;rfattaren s&amp;auml;kert avs&amp;aring;g, men det &amp;auml;r dennes&amp;nbsp;uppgift ocks&amp;aring;&amp;nbsp;att underl&amp;auml;tta f&amp;ouml;rst&amp;aring;elsen och inge oss det visuella intrycket.&amp;nbsp;Avsaknaden av&amp;nbsp;dessa detaljer&amp;nbsp;inbegrep &amp;auml;ven karakt&amp;auml;rer, med resultatet att jag som&amp;nbsp;l&amp;auml;sare blev&amp;nbsp;ytterst lite ber&amp;ouml;rd&amp;nbsp;av Harpers &amp;ouml;de.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Nu &amp;auml;r jag ingen kr&amp;auml;sen l&amp;auml;sare, och&amp;nbsp;ska d&amp;auml;rf&amp;ouml;r ge uppf&amp;ouml;ljaren en chans innan jag helt&amp;nbsp;bortser fr&amp;aring;n&amp;nbsp;denna serie i framtiden. Det &amp;aring;terst&amp;aring;r att se om Harper lyckas uppn&amp;aring; n&amp;aring;gon balans med The Grey och&amp;nbsp;skapa j&amp;auml;mvikt i sin tillvaro. Det finns trots allt flera exempel i litteraturv&amp;auml;rlden d&amp;auml;r uppf&amp;ouml;ljare &amp;ouml;vertr&amp;auml;ffar f&amp;ouml;reg&amp;aring;ngare. F&amp;ouml;rsta delen av hittills fyra i serien Greywalker.

<title>Squashgryta</title>
<description>Till middag &amp;aring;t vi gr&amp;ouml;nsaksgryta baserad p&amp;aring; squash och diverse andra gr&amp;ouml;nsaker. Kanh&amp;auml;nda blev s&amp;aring;sen lite f&amp;ouml;r kryddstark, men&amp;nbsp;i sin helhet en&amp;nbsp;fullt&amp;nbsp;&amp;auml;tlig, f&amp;ouml;r att inte tala om nyttig gryta. Och god, om ni fr&amp;aring;gar kocken. &amp;lt; - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Okej. Jag &amp;ouml;verv&amp;auml;ger&amp;nbsp;seri&amp;ouml;st att byta bloggnamn, tror ni Martha Stewart &amp;auml;r upptaget..? Det h&amp;auml;r &amp;auml;r det femte matinl&amp;auml;gget&amp;nbsp;p&amp;aring; en&amp;nbsp;vecka, f&amp;ouml;r sjutton! En bokrecension kommer senast imorgon. Eller stryk det, g&amp;ouml;r det snarare till senare&amp;nbsp;idag.</description>

<title>Hamburgare</title>
<description>Idag blev det hamburgare till kv&amp;auml;llsmat. Nu n&amp;auml;r jag dokumenterar m&amp;aring;ltiderna inser jag tv&amp;aring; saker -&amp;nbsp;att vi j&amp;auml;mt &amp;auml;ter halvfabrikat (djupfrysta burgare med&amp;nbsp;konserverat br&amp;ouml;d, med E-fyll i valfri siffra),&amp;nbsp;och att det &amp;auml;r mycket l&amp;auml;ttare &amp;auml;n att laga en m&amp;aring;ltid from scratch. (Folket &amp;auml;r lika tacksamt &amp;auml;nd&amp;aring;.)</description>
