Well, dear readers, it would be just plain weird for me not to post about my favorite author and the last book in my favorite series about my favorite guy--Mr. Adrien-with an e-English and his dastardly on again and off again lover, the incomparable /RC look alike, Mr. Jake Riordan
It's effing awesome. NOT JUST SAYIN'.
There are reviews up, I understand, crowding the pages of bloglandia. Lots of cheering and tossing of panties confetti--lots of tears and tea--lots of screaming Oh no he di'n't!! I think it's safe to say that my pal Josh struck gold again. Fans of the Adrien English Mysteries (And who isn't? I ask you.) will find what they're looking for, and much more, in The Dark Tide.
I'll be considering a suitable galpal tribute over the next week or so--possibly with dance, four part harmony, and snacks, I'm so sure--but not today.
All I can say on this Dec 22-with shopping and guests on the agenda-- is Merry Christmas to you, too, Josh.
To make this day even more of a treat (for fans), Josh has posted his playlist for The Dark Tide . Although it pains me to tell you that he apparently forgot to include Lisabea's infamous Jake and Adrien selection from ...my goodness...was that last year? I've added it here for you--because surely he didn't leave this off intentionally.
Right?
Oh, don't make a puss, people. Listen and you'll think--By cracky! That girl knows a thing or two!
Heh. Heh. Heh. This be my jam.
Go buy you some Adrien love.

Aw, thank you, Sweetbea! You are a wonderful little pal.
.
Even if I don't understand your taste in mussick.
You didn't even listen to it!!
Pffft.
I'm rockin' right now, Lanyon. Ba ba ba ba ba ba. Reading my Adrien (again) and tappin' my wee toes.
OKAY, I LISTENED.
It is everrrrrything I remembered. And oh so much more. The harpsichord instrumental and ooohs are...no words can describe.
I thought Mrs. P rocked the Hammond Organ? No?
Heh. Heh. Admit it. You'll be trying to wash this out of your brain all day.
Oh I can't wait for Sula to read this book!!!
Was good book *sigh*.
OK, that was an understatement.
I was also laughing at the sly mentions of a certain little town in Connecticut. You must be so proud :).
It's my new DIK book. I was sly, too.
:) Funny, though--I thought I'd be sad at the end of the series--and I'm not. I feel--hopeful.
mmmkay, I seriously need to jump on the Bandwagon. I have these books in my TBR, I just...haven't gotten to them.
I blame it all on the fact that I don't have an eReader.
Yeah...that's it. Either way, I need to get to these so I can see what all the fuss is about. ;o)
Merry, merry, darling LBea!
I luff you!
I really got to start reading this series.
woot! but...i'm skeeered! what will happen to jake and adrien? will they walk off hand and hand into the sunset? inquiring minds want to know.
i wonder if my provincial borders store will stock this title. hmmm.
KATI!!!
I'd tackle hug you, but I'm too tired to move. These are available in print. ::cough:: Not that I'm suggesting you hurry to Amazon right now while supplies last.
I luff you too. What's it? Seven months til Nashville? GAWD.
Sula--Iz seekrit. But I'll give you a hint--it's a romance. ::wink::
Katie(babs)-Yes You Do. Each one is better than the last. And they are all excellent.
::dies of fangirl squee-ism::
*snort*
I think J needs you to help him make his playlists from now on. *taps toes*
Oh and: SQUEEEEEEEEEEEE!
From your mouth to Josh's ears, my friend.
Happy Christmas, Miss Dakota Flint--Angel.
LBea - Will you break up w/me if I tell you I'm not going to RWA? I'm...ummmm...going on a cruise. With Scott.
Not that it's going to be better, or anything. But, well, um, there you go. But for sure I'll be back for RWA 2011. And I know that I'm going to end up being miserable that I missed RWA this year. From the Bahamas.
No really. I'm going to feel really bad about it.
Are we reviewing this one together LBea?
It was 2 in the morning when I finally put it down and I am not even finished it. So good!! :)
OK, read it yesterday, and did something I NEVER do. I immediately went back to pg 1 and started reading it again. I think I liked it. ALOT. :-)
And Happy Holidays to you too, Lbea! I hope you have a warm and blessed time with family. ;)
Can you believe I haven't read this yet?!? That's what happens when you shut out the world until Dec. 19th, and then there's family time and Christmas shopping...
But hey, at least I'm resisted--like then times--the urge to read the last page!
Um...that should be TEN times. Stupid fingers, they never type what they're supposed to!
Hey, Miss D. WHAT DO YOU MEAN I NEED HELP WITH MY PLAYLIST!!!
That is a GREAT playlist. I listened to it one million times.
Sheesh!
By cracky! That girl knows a thing or two! (No one else did, so I thought I should.)
Making merry here. Hope you are, too.
Congrats, Josh.
Thank you Samantha Kane. You are my friend.

Just SQUEEEEEE!
I read it twice already. The problem is, after reading it, I lost interest in other books. I think I need to read it 4 times before I could move on to other books.
Nice Adrien and Jake pic you got there! Jake even has his wedding ring on! That reminds me of DoaPK when Jake pushed Adrien against the wall...
Looking forward to your galpal tribute.
thelastaerie~That's what I thought too!!! Merow.
