Friday the 13th and Your TurnNovember 13, 2009 I'm a grown woman, but the words "Friday the 13th" still have the power to creep me out. I'm sure the movies didn't help, even though I never saw them. I guess I am a superstition person and I'm always glad to see Saturday the 14th come around. I'm leaving today for Boston and the Crime Bake Conference. Since I've never been to Boston, I'm looking forward to it. Although, as most of you convention goers know, you usually don't get very far from the hotel. There's always so much going on.  This week I read Street Game by Christine Feehan. Mack McKinley heads his team of GhostWalkers and when the trail for weapons he's following leads to an old love, Mack is forced to confront his past. Jamie feels she's left the GhostWalker life behind, but for good reasons. Now Mack is here and so is the danger that seems to surround the GhostWalkers.I have followed this series from the beginning and my favorite will always be the first, Shadow Game. But Street Game brings in a whole new group with even more powers and psychic abilities. I love the strong connections this team has since they all grew up together. The GhostWalkers once again define loyalty, duty and passion. What a fine cocktail that makes. I also read the anthology Trick or Treat by N. J. Walters, Jan Springer, Charlene Teglia, Tawny Taylor.  Unmasking Kelly by N.J. Walters: Halloween night and Kelly Allen, a waitress at the pub decides to not work and come to the party as a costumed guest in order to seduce her boss, owner Liam.
Sinderella by Jan Springer: Ella is clumsy during the day, but in the dark of night she puts on her own production of Cinderella, the X-rated version for private parties. Dr. Roarke Stephanson has to fill in as the Prince when a cast member doesn't show up. Now it's Your Turn. What have you been reading lately? Share your books and views by leaving your comments. Bottom Line: Today is World Kindness Day and that is really needed on Friday the 13th. Posted by Barbara Vey on November 13, 2009 | Comments (8)

Thank you for the great book/author choices & for letting us know it is "World Kindness Day"--so I am glad I visited the Veterans' Home (more so today, but I am always glad I visit the veterans/families etc. there). It is a wonderful facility!
