Hey, hey, we're the Plotmonkeys. We're friends, plotting partners, friends, mothers, friends ... well you get the gist. Welcome to our blogging site where you'll find our views on anything and everything depending on which one of us is blogging and what kind of mood we're in. We can't tell you whether we'll be talking about our families, our writing, how much weight we gained after eating that entire container of Ben and Jerry's or how ticked we are about people who have twelve items in the ten items or less checkout lane. So hope you'll come back every day to see what's happening in the jungle including giveaways!

Summer reading lists always contain fun books, and dreadful books. Good luck with the list. Oh and why is Buck, a Mary Sue?
I have just started reading a newly published paranormal romance author. Her name is Melissa R. Smith, and the book is Color of Night.
Happy Saturday Everyone!
Enjoy your weekend!!!
A Mary Sue is a character (I guess in this case, he’d be a Gary Stu) who is a placeholder for the author…who possesses some of his traits, but is utter perfection and without real flaws. Buck is like a placeholder for Jack London, who went to the Yukon and had adventures…he’s the perfect beast. Brave, clever, strong, bigger than everyone else, etc. Also, London literally goes on and on and on for paragraphs upon paragraphs about how perfect Buck is, how magnificent and majestic. I might not have noticed this if not for reading with my child, who is very aware of this phenomena because it’s often discussed in the world of gaming. And also, since Twilight. :-)
Thank you. I have learned something new today!
Still trying to find time to finish Karen Hawkins Talk of the Town.

It’s finally NOT 100 degrees here in missouri so I’ve put the bOoks done and been outside enjoying this beautiful weather with the family!
I am reading Home for the Summer by Mariah Stewart…
Oh, I read To Kill a Mockingbird when my son was reading for school & that was a great book. However, when he was reading Catcher in the Rye, I just couldn’t read it again. I also read Huck Finn & found that torturous! Currently, I am reading Alexandra Potter’s Calling Romeo. Good, so far! I’ve read a couple of her other books & enjoyed them.
