Paranormal romance drinking game

http://www.mrsgiggles.com/books/soapbox/paranormal_drinking.html

Found this on Mrs. Giggles and just had to share. Playing this game would certainly get you drunk and possibly dead if you played it with the AB series. The urban fantasy sections seems to have all LKH's 'plot' points, plus some thrown in from the vampire/werewolf section. Of course this is the woman who gave her review of Micah a grade of 2 on a 100 point scale.

I just have to say, I like her style! I read the review of Micah, which was awesome, and then looked at the reviews of other books. I think we can safely say nothing makes our point (our = teh evile haterzzz) better than to look at her ratings. OB got 89, the highest rating for an LKH book, A Kiss of Shadows got 74, NiC 45, CS 34, and Micah 2. Her only other book to get a rating above the 74 is a non AB/MG book.

I think that should speak volumes :) Thanks for pointing out this website, I think I'll be reading there for a bit instead of doing work. Oops.

Micah's review

Possibly the funniest reviewer I've ever read. I laughed so hard I my whole body hurts. Her review of Micah actually made me happy I read the damn novella, because I got every one of her points.

Thank you Mrs. Giggles. You just made a $7.99 waste of time and money worth my time.

Ridiculous religious/pagan ceremony that requires the heroine to get laid now - 8 sips.

haha

Sex apparently augments her powers - 11 sips.
And gives her special new powers - 12 sips.


extra haha

Owie. My back hurts from laughing so hard. I now have that saved to help me with my writing, so I don't make stupid mistakes.

I'm going through a manuscript I'm reviewing with a agent I hope to sign with tomorrow to see how screwed I am. Probably VERY.

By Book Four of the series, everyone is either shagging or wanting desperately to shag the heroine - 26 sips

*dies of alcohol poisoning*

Although I've read quite a few good urban fantasy, etc novels that would probably put you on the floor too, by those rules.

By my count, using JUST the urban fantasy section, the AB series requires AT MINIMUM of 144 points. I included "None of these men are gay," because... well... it doesn't make sense in the sequence, but.... yes.

Damnit.... I'm such a lightweight too.

I wonder if any of the Kelly Armstrong books would still have me royally drunk with that...

One look at her and he knows that she's his "mate" - 2 sips.

That for some reason gets healed by messing with the hero who behaves like a date-rapist on the prowl - 9 sips.


Anita and Micah, anyone?
