        Forgot to say Ilona posted this video on the blog one day, and I can’t find it again. But it is funny.

          even more funny because it ends with “I’m on a horse” just like Ilona did at the end of her blog.

      Oh, and I am still waiting for my copy from Powell’s. I should have paid for extra quick shipping but I just did the regular. I’ve been looking locally at Walmart and I went to a Borders, but it was a small one and they didn’t have it. I was going to yell at someone, but decided to keep my turmoil inside. *snort*

    I already raved about the book in the comments of the Curran POV blog entry, but I wanted to offer congratulations here. Magic Kicks A$$ should be the name of the entire series when it comes out in a boxed set! Each book has been better than the last, which is amazing since each one starts out so good to begin with!
