I must be very popular in the UK *g*

I just received new copies of WHEN THE LIGHTS GO DOWN, which were totally unexpected. (I know I say that every time, but it's always true. Every time I get new foreign versions of my Desires, it's like a little treat. :-)) This time, they're large print, hardback, UK editions. Very neat. They're really kind of big & look totally out of place amongst all my other, teeny-tiny paperbacks, but I stuck one in there, anyway. :-D

I also recently discovered that one of my Desires...& I have no clue yet which one...is going to be part of a special collection published in this UK in December called THE WICKED COLLECTION. It will include books by authors Joanne Rock & Dorien Kelly, as well. Nice cover, huh? (I tried to post the cover of the large print version of LIGHTS, but it didn't work out...this one, I stole from Amazon.co.uk. :-)) I hope I get copies of this one, too!

In other news, I'm running out of room on my DVRs. :-P Dish Network is giving us a free preview of a bunch of HBO channels this week, so I've been recording movies left & right.

Finished watching Wedding Crashers on the bike this morning, but I've also taped Red Eye, The Interpreter, In Her Shoes, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Just Like Heaven, Fever Pitch, Two for the Money, Racing Stripes, Wallace & Gromit: Curse of the Something-or-Other (:-P), Batman Begins, North Country, Fantastic Four, Kicking & Screaming, & The Island...

Oy. Do I have my work cut out for me, or what? I'm hoping to save a few of them until the holidays so I can watch them with my family, but others I'm just going to try to get through so I can delete them. :-)

How about you? Are you watching anything interesting at the moment? Or have you seen anything interesting recently?

Also finished reading Key of Valor by Nora Roberts last night...very good, nice wrap-up to the trilogy, though I still think the first book was my favorite...& "Kissing Frosty" by Anne Stuart a couple days ago. I really liked this one. The copy I had was a two-in-one reprint, so I don't know when the story was originally published. I'm usually pretty good at catching these things, or at least knowing about original printings, but this one completely slipped under my radar. I'm glad I found it, even as a reprint, though, because it was very good. Cute & creative & romantic. :-)

So now I get to look for something new to read. And believe me, I have more than enough ideas. *g*
