It's the time of the year for tulips, Easter eggs, and cute bunnies. So how about we read some books with flowers, spring chickens, and life on the farm? ....What do you mean 'no'? Aren't you in the mood for the adorably cute? You sure? ... Okay, then sing with me to the tune of April Showers from the Disney movie, Bambi....Drip, Drip, Drop, Little April Showers....Drip, Drip, Drop, lots of bloody splatters ....now let's Spring Into Action!

A) Read a book with a king
B) Read a book with a slayer
C) Read a book with an A.I.
D) Read a book with a P.I.

A.I.= Artificial Intelligence. May be of technical origin (ex. robot, android, etc.) or of magical origin (ex. Pinocchio, beast made intelligent/human, etc.)

PI, as in Private Investigator?
AI, yuck! I hate scifi-ish stuff. Magical origin? are we talking something like a dog that's turned into a human by a magic, not a shifter, right?
It's Monday and I'm easily confused on the best of days, so I just wanted to make sure I understand.

PI = Private investigator
As for the AI, I've got to come up with 48 categories this year and I'm trying to give you occasional stuff that's a real challenge to find. I know not everyone does futuristic romance so that's why it can be magical too. A plant or animal that is turned human or just given an intellect. It would have to be a transformation or endowment of intellect. The dog for example, could be made to have human intelligence without being turned into a human. A shifter, demon, or angel wouldn't count as they are already intelligent. *rethinks the flower idea...hmmm, maybe VKD would rather read ....and we could have a group night to watch Bambi, snicker *

Believe it or not I actually read a book several weeks ago that was about cyborg type things. I didn't like it, but I read it.

I hope you don't think I was wanting something else. You're free to pick whatever you want for the categories.

Goal for April: Find a book about a witch PI who is sent to space to seduce the King of planet Slayer, the metal flower planet. While on this planet she sneezes and several of the flowers suddenly pick up on her seduction techniques and begin "inserting their stems" into random people for sexual enjoyment. The King captures the witch PI and sends all his slayers for training to kill the sexed up flower.

LAMO...brilliant....I'm pretty sure you could sell that plot to the Sy Fy channel

I love y'all

let me know when you find this book....sounds interesting. wish i hadnt read Nini Bangs castle of dark dreams, could have gotten some pts here.

hmmm....what if the witch was a flower fairy instead? and the king was formerly a billy goat that had been turned human by the lusty spade people that wanted to use his semen as fertilizer?

sorry Nina Bangs... lol LH, that could be very interesting too.

TR, have you tried Nina's McKenzie vampires? I don't think they fit the topic this month, but I enjoy Bangs

no i have not, i should give them a try. i really like Nina Bangs, especially her Gods of Night series. im reading Ward's new one then Water for Elephants.

lover unleashed by jr ward. i thought it was good. king= 1 pt

Actually T.R. you get 2 there is mention of slayers also!

Well for now I get 1 point for King. I'm reading The Final Prophecy series by Jessica Andersen and the series has a Nightkeeper King to help prevent the end of the world in 2012. I will also soon be getting a 2nd point for LU due to the slayers. Maybe a 3rd for a PI as the King works with a PI to locate Nightkeepers and Mayan artifacts but I'm not sure on the AI part though. I guess we will see.

I re-read LU so 2pts for me King and Slayer. I have an AI to post but forgot the title I will post it later it was a nook freebie

Heather Graham- Unhallowed Ground PI =1pt and I forgot the AI book again lol I will post next go around

reading currently, Lover Unleashed. has a King, Wrath, and slayers - the Brothers (does that count??)

2 points

Well I read the ghostwalkers so they have the AI in basically all books.. I guess that gives me a few points already say like 5?
Now I'm reading Lover Unleashed so I guess that gives me 2 more...

A) Read a book with a king
Fallen Vampire, Vol. 1-9 by Kyo Shirodaira - 9 points
B) Read a book with a slayer
Fallen Vampire, Vol. 1-9 - 9 points
C) Read a book with an A.I.
Absolute Boyfriend, Vol. 1-6 by Yuu Watase - 6 points
D) Read a book with a P.I.
Killing Moon by Rebecca York - 1 point

total 25 points

wow, great job LH! i have had no time to read this month!

some months are like that TR and that's ok. It makes me really appreciate when I do have time to read. I was trailing way behind in this among you fast readers so it was nice to play catch up. Hope May is less hectic for you
