If remember if you need any details about this read along all you need to do is click on the Charade R
Week One November 5th Chapters 1-6
1. Charade begins with Heven cutting off a lot of the hair she used to hide behind. Her haircut turns out really good. Have you ever had a bad haircut? A bad dye job? Tell us about it.
Oh my… what a question… many years ago I actually went to cosmetology school and graduated. But just because I have a degree in hair doesn’t mean I don’t have my fair share of mishaps… LOL! I have had about a million different hair colors… blond, red, dark brown, light brown, one time I hi-ighted it and it turned purple. My daughter wouldn’t go out in public with me. Then one time I dyed it and it turned green… yeah good times.
My most recent mishap was just a month or two ago. i tried to dye it from blond to a brownish red shade… I looked like Ronald McDonald…. oh yes I really did.
I’ve had a few bad haircuts too… one time the stylist cut it so crooked and uneven that I cried for two days. All my husband could come up with is “at least your face is still pretty…” Ummm yeah. HA HA HA HA.
Currently its just brown (to cover up Ronald) and I am growing it out and I favor a ponytail most days. BUt sometimes I daydream about fiery red hi-lites or something fun. Maybe someday. 🙂
2. What do you think about Heven and Cole’s relationship?
Well I love it of course. I did write it! lol. I think its complicated… and i think you will all understand why very soon. 🙂
3. A new character is introduced in these chapters. Gemma. What are your thoughts on her? Any predictions?
Well, I love Gemma. She’s strong, she’s independant and she has her secrets. She doesn’t let anyone push her around and she can take care of herself. But I also think that deep down she might be a little lonely. I predict she’s going to be a kick – butt character. 🙂
4. There are a lot of demons running around in Charade. What do you think would be the best weapon to fight them?
Oooohhhhh. well. I think kicking them in their man-parts is a good idea. 😉 I also think that any kind of sharp object it always a good choice. OR you could just date a hellhound. ha ha ha.
5. Sam is very close with his brother and feels responsible for him. Do you have any siblings? What is your relationship with them like?
I actually am an only child. Hey now… YES I do know what they say about only children… I don’t agree. *sniff* I also think that I am as creative as I am because I didn’t have a brother/sister to play with when I was young, I made all my friends up (that doesn’t make me crazy does it?!) I had two children and they fight and then get along. Its kind of cool to watch their relationship because they are close and they do watch out for each other. But they also like to drive each other nuts, ha ha ha.
So those are my answers for week one of the Charade read along! I cannot wait to read your answers!!
Before you go grab next week’s questions!
Next week will be hosted by Christy @Love of Books http://www.christysloveofbooks.com this is where you will visit to link your posts. she will also be posting week three’s questions.
Questions for Week Two Chapters 7-13
1. Heven’s mom has a new boyfriend that Heven doesn’t really like. Have you ever disliked a boyfriend/girlfriend of family member’s significant other? Did you tell them or just try to get along?
2. Kimber is acting weird… weirder than usual. Any predictions? Have you ever known anyone like Kimber?
3. Heven is getting a new “supernatural” power. If you could have one which would you choose?
4. In this set of chapters we find out something about Cole. Were you surprised?
5. Heven has someone invading her dreams. What is the scariest or wackiest dream you have ever had?
So that’s it for week one!!! I can’t wait to hop around and read your answers! Thanks for joining in!! 🙂
Hi, Cambria!
I’m posting a test comment now, to see if the SPAM folder will eat it up. But I’ll come back later, anyway, ‘cos I’m at work. Hee, hee!! : )
#1: When I was 8 I thought it would make my mom mad if Cut off my thick curly butt length hair….sooo, I took some scissors and went to town. When my mom found out she was in shock but took me to the salon to “fix” it anyway. My punishment was here at the salon….everyone that walked by me said “Oh my, that little boy has such beautiful eyes!” I was mortified lol! I am glad to say I have had VERY long hair since it grew back out!
#2: Heven and Cole have a very strong relationship, not sure at this point in the book where it stems from but in whatever case it is strong!
#3: Gemma, I LOVE GEMMA, She is strong, independent, and doesn’t take any crap from ANYONE!
#4: I know it sounds corny but I am a huge vampire diaries fan and I like the way they have a different method for killing different types of vampires, so with that said it would be cool if the weaker demons remain defeated the way they are in the book (lets face it, you did an AMAZING job painting a picture in my head in the fight scenes!) and the stronger demons would need a blade of any kind dipped in a “special” liquid or dust..you get the idea:)
#5: I have 2 much younger sisters (we are 11 years and 13 years apart) and sometimes I find myself being motherly to them, trying to protect them from the world and what not…I was an only child for 11 years and LOVED every minute of it but I would not trade my sisters for the world!
Cambria, I love this read along! I am getting to know the characters all over again! Thanks for being awesome at everything you do!
Lol! Thanks for answering Nicole! Vampire Diaries is my favorite show eva!! Long live Damon! Yum! Ha ha
Imnso glad u enjoy the books and i look forward to reading more answers.
Now I can write, because I’m at lunch.
You are SO funny! That story about your hair is just HILARIOUS. Ronald McDonald…too much!
Yes, Heven & Cole’s relationship IS complicated…he’s been a bit too pushy in pursuing her, but everything will be explained soon…lol.
I love Gemma! She’s so fierce, and street-savvy, too! She dishes out her own brand of “tough love”. My question is, why didn’t she step in sooner?
Oh, I love your little joke about fighting demons by dating a hellhound! Lol. I think swords would be most effective — especially if they’re flaming….
Gee, it must be kinda sad, being an only child. But I think you’re right — your creativity was honed on not having siblings to interact with. Very interesting insight!
You know, all siblings fight. It’s pretty much inevitable. The great thing is that they always make up later! I’ve seen it happen over and over again with my sisters and me!
GREAT answers, Cambria!! : )
Reading about your hair mishaps I couldn’t help but think back to all of mine. But there were also some great hair dyes, I had my hair fiery red with strikes of black for a while, and after that when I had a bit longer hair, I dyed them orange and had a bleached white lyer at the back, right behind the ears and over the base of my neck. They were crazy but I loved them. Now purple hair, this I still need to try. 🙂
Well locking them in the junk means getting close and I don’t want to do that! Man, I would love to see pics of those bad dye jobs. I have never died my hair, don’t want to mess it up. Yeah when are we going to get the details on Gemma, huh? Ahh man only child, I can’t imagine not having my siblings!
Thank you so much for the comments everyone! 🙂
I’ve always been really curious about what I would look like with different hair colors but I’m too scared. I get so many compliments on my hair I figure why mess with what works?! lol I love Cole and I just started next weeks reading and found out about their “relationship” I was a little grossed out because I liked them together!!! LOL So now I’m all disturbed… but at least they will stay good friends this way. Gemma seems fun. Can’t wait to get to know more about her. Dating a hell hound sounds like a great idea! I can sit back and look pretty while he takes care of the demons. Siblings are really good at driving each other crazy. I always wished I was an only child!!! hehe!
