  1. Yes I am really trying to go, like I said I've never done anything like this before and I've got no acutal books to sign, just my nook, which needless to say has about 20 various Sylvia Day books and I'm pretty old (turning 50) and thinking about going I feel like a teenager groupie in some ways, but if I can get out of work early enough (NYC) I plan to go over the GW Bridge to Paramus;;;I am most interested in the Q and A session I suppose

     

    I guess like most of you the books affected me and I fell in love with Gideon and Eva, much more so than Christian and Ana which I felt was not written nearly as well,

     

    As we get closer we'll figure out who each other are and hook up at the barnes and noble,  OK?

     

    Sounds good....You are not old.  I'm 45 and I'm going.

  2. Clancy drove her there. Eva was in a daze at the time, shocked by what she'd just been told. The daze lasted until she stood in front of Gideon's door. Middle of page 337:

     

    Somehow, I ended up at Gideon's apartment.

     

    I don't remember leaving Parker's studio or telling Clancy where to take me. I don't remember checking in with the front desk or riding the elevator up. When I found myself in the private foyer facing Gideon's door, I had to stop a moment, unsure of how I'd gotten from the bleachers to that point.

     

    Clancy must have noticed the cops following them.

  3. so I just called the paramus barnes and noble regarding the June 4th Sylvia Day appearance...has anyone ever gone to an appearance before??I know that you dont need a reservation at this one but is it worth going to hear what she has to say??I have a nook so I'm likely not really going to get a signature

     

    I'm going.  I know we are strangers but do you want to meet up.   A couple of girlfriends might be going too.   I'm going to have her sign both books.

  4. The happily ever after I see at the end of Entwined will be the end of the fighting between Gideon and Eva. They'll have both gotten past their insecurity and jealousy issues. They'll finally trust one another, and Gideon will at last practice total honesty with Eva.

     

    But there could still be outside battles to fight. Dr. Lucas. Christopher Sr. and Christopher Jr. Additional characters we've not yet met who were involved in the cover-up. Perhaps even the man who raped Gideon as a kid. 

     

    Sylvia has been clear the reason the story will extend beyond the original plan for a trilogy is because Gideon still has a lot of work to do. I can see present-day blowback from confronting the people involved in the past being a catalyst for Gideon continuing to face the dark past.

     

    Plus there is still the specter that the murder case will continue to hang in the background, especially if no one ends up being charged during the two weeks Entwined unfolds. It'd turn into an unsolved and eventually a cold case, but there is no statute of limitations on homicide, so unsolved and cold cases never truly disappear -- unlike all other serious crime cases, where after a certain number of years pass, the door forever slams shut on arresting someone.

     

    I believe that too

  5. There was a tweet yesterday too Sylvia about book #4.   The person wondered if she wrote them one right after another.   She had said no because her other books had to be done.   Also the talk about it going to HBO, definitely makes me think this will definitely go beyond book 4.   I have a feeling there will definitely be more "enlightment" of his father in book 4.

     

    Someone who performs a ponzi scheme is narcistic (as someone else mentioned) and they are too into themselves who are sick.   I have personal experience being a sister of one (not Madoff) and it's a devastating experience when someone who you love and trust and loose money too does this.   I know though he would not commit suicide.  He's in jail now for 40 years.  

  6.  Hi Peachies,

    I read one of your earlier postings about the "Master Key" theory, I am sorry I can't remember which forum it was in.  I just wanted to clarify with you that hotels; like The Four Season and The HIlton Hotels (very upscale establishments) do not use a "metal Master key".  They use credit card type key cards that have a magnetic strip which contains information and access to certain areas. Whom ever uses one of hese "keycards" would just swipe said card against a pad (a device that reads the magnetic strip on the key card), the door would be unlocked and the person could gain access.

     

    A master key of sorts would allow a person to gain access to all levels of the hotel; from the service entrances, to the guest suites, to the offices and everything else in between.  When a person uses this card, the information is digitally transferred to one of the hotel's computer main servers (one is on sight and the other is off sight).  That way, if there is a problem with the computer system there is always another backup.  It also help to ensure that the information remains intact and that no one can tamper with said information.

     

    As a matter of research; I spoke with two respresentatives from "The Four Seasons Hotel and The Hilton Hotels" and they confirmed what I just stated.  They would not go into specifics about security and such (I must have sounded so strange to these people when I explained that I was doing research for a book club discussion...sigh! :)), but they were nice enough to answer my questions.  I chose these two hotels because they are upscale and have several global locations and as such various security requirements that would need to be taken into account (depending on the city and/or country the hotel is located in) in order to ensure that their guests have a safe and enjoyable stay.

     

    I suspect that Gideon's hotels would have been just as upscale if not more so and as such would have utilized the same type of security for his hotel properties.  Each and every singal key registers their location and time when they are used. It helps the hotel staff and others keep track of the guests and employees.  It ensures that everyone stays safe and it also provides documented evidence and a time log if a crime is committed at the hotel.  Feel free to contact either of these hotels if you would like confirmation. :)

     

    Gigi - was the hotel laughing when you were asking these questions for your book club.

  7. Gideon - the funny thing alot of people who want certain actors to be Gideon also want them to be Christian.   I can't decide.   I know that Ian Somerhalder is not Gideon. 

    Eva - Brittany Snow (she's been in several movies and tv series) or Candace Accola (Vampire Diaries)

    Monica - Somebody mention Nicolette Sheridan but she's not young looking.   Monica is suppose to look young enough to look like Eva's twin but yet old enough to be her mom.

    Stanton - Ted Danson

    Brett - Adam Levine - yes - I wish Jon Bonjovi was young enough though

     

    will check back later.
