Lover Enshrined: A Novel of The Black Dagger Brotherhood | J.R. Ward

#BDB #BDBBuddyRead #BDBBookClub

We will be reading book six in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series in November. This is Phury and Carmia's story. I am sure we will get more of the other brothers also. I am especially looking forward to getting more tidbits about John Matthew.

My husband snapped this picture of Dexter trying to get my attention. I guess it's time to stop reading and go to bed. 📖 🌙

The story is moving g along now. John has survived his transition and realizes he is as tall as Zsadist and taller than Lash. As usual, Lash tries to start shit. Z has man to man conversation with John. He promises John that he will keep all of John's secrets. Vishous takes Jane home and erases her memory. Manello is worried about Jane and goes to visit her. V sees him there and loses his shit. Butch stops V from

TheSpineView ...doing anything Rash. They have a good old-fashioned knockdown fight but are good afterwards. V can't resist making love to Jane but puts it in her head that she is dreaming. Jane wakes up and thinks she slept with Manello. However, he tells her no they didn't. Now Jane thinks she is crazy 2w

TheSpineView Vishous and Carmia are both miserable over their mating. In the end, Vishous storms out and can't go through with it. At a meeting with all the Brothers in Wrath's office, Phury offers to take Vishous's place. The Scribe Virgin agrees to the plan. @PageShifter @Laughterhp @julesG @ShananigansReads @DuckOfDoom @InkedBookworm13 @tdrosebud @CoverToCoverGirl @StayCurious @BooksNBowls @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks 2w

TheSpineView I feel so sorry for Phury. He holds so much guilt over events that were out of his control. I think they all need therapy. God help us if a man ever thought he needed therapy. I also think there is some grand plan here. The SV has something up her sleeve, I sure of it. I wonder how much she knows of the future and if she tries to influence it? 🤔 2w

julesG I've said it before, I hate the SV's whole breeding program. She had planned for her own son to be her prize stallion?? I'd love to slap her with a hardcover edition of each of the books. I'm utterly sorry for both, Vishous and Phury (different reasons, of course). 1w

julesG Men/males going to therapy? So far only one Brother was willing to try (?) and it has done him good. They could all benefit from therapy, they all carry lots of baggage. 1w

TheSpineView @julesG Agree. However, if I am thinking like an author, how do you write the actions of a character? A goddess would be a narcissist probably, because their word is law... literally. From that view point, I see why the plot is that way. The means justifies the end from the SV's pov. Also, religion in general is bogged down in dogma and tends not to change with the times. It also creates tension in the plot. It makes me dislike the SV's character 1w

TheSpineView @julesG...and the reader needs someone to put blame on... maybe this is what Ward was thinking when she created the character and the belief system as part of the world building. A whole thesis paper could be written on this. Anyway, I am in total agreement with you. As a mother, I couldn't do something like that to my child. The whole breeding thing just gives me the creeps. 1w

julesG I understand from writer's POV, but still. Ugh!!! You're right, a thesis could be written about it. 1w

In chapters 14 - 26, starts with Zsadist talking to Phury about Bells's pregnancy. She is bleeding and is rightfully worried. He takes her to see Havers. John is not feeling well yet goes to class anyway. Quinn and Blay tell him they have his back when it comes to Lash. Vishous realizes he has fallen for Jane. Vishous recalls more of the times he spent in the camp with his father. He realizes he can read Jane's..

TheSpineView ...and Jane desires him even though he is a Vampire. He also released a bonding scent when he let Jane pleasure him. He knows he has to send her home soon. Phury takes out his frustration over Bella on a lesser. He is so distracted that another lesser attacks him and he is injured badly. He insists on going back to the mansion because he doesn't want to upset Bella if he runs into her at Haver's clinic. Jane is asked to help Phury. She does... 2w

TheSpineView ..surgery to repair the damage to his skull and face. The operation goes well, though Jane is not sure about Phury's sight. Vishous and Butch are talking after the surgery, and Butch says he approves of him and Jane as a couple. V admits he used to be attracted to Butch but not since Jane. Butch admits he knew but is cool with it. V is happy he gets more time with Jane and takes her to his condo for some alone time. John goes with Qhuinn and Blay 2w

TheSpineView ...to ZeroSum. While there, John meets Xhex and she learns who John really is. Once they leave, they run into two lessers, which John kills. Thank goodness, John is an excellent shot with a gun. But he has another seizure once he stabs them both. He awakes at the mansion and has started his transition. Layla is there to drink from. But John is still struggling with his past and not able to have sex with her. Layla feels it is her fault. 2w

TheSpineView Phury takes his bandages off and can see. @PageShifter @Laughterhp @julesG @ShananigansReads @DuckOfDoom @InkedBookworm13 @tdrosebud @CoverToCoverGirl @StayCurious @BooksNBowls @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks 2w

TheSpineView Every time V has a flash back to his time in the training camp with his father it makes me wonder, how could the Scribe Virgin let the Bloodletter be the father of Z. She could have chosen anyone. I get that she wanted a powerful warrior. However, there had to be others that were close in strength and cunning without the physo path tendencies. 2w

julesG I'll never understand why the SV chose the Bloodletter for procreation. She can't have been that desperate. 2w

julesG Speaking of the SV, why does she make whores out of her Chosen? "donating" blood is fine by me, but the rest feels morally icky. 2w

julesG I know, I've rushed through the first 10 books again, but do we get an explanation for John's seizures? 2w

TheSpineView @julesG Right! That part of the story doesn't work for me. 2w

TheSpineView @julesG Agree. Especially since she is female. 2w

TheSpineView @julesG Not so far. It has been so long since I read the first, I think, 14 or so books I can't remember. 2w

julesG I'll check the Wiki. But I think we don't get an answer. 2w

julesG Wiki says he has seizures when he has flashbacks to his former life. Well, duh!!! I thought we'd get something more substantial. 2w

TheSpineView @julesG Jeepers... we already knew that! Sigh... I 'm thinking maybe when Darius's memories come to the surface it over loads his brain and causes the seizures. 2w

ShananigansReads @TheSpineView I will never understand that decision. Could you imagine leaving your 3 year old in that camp? Hell I wouldn‘t leave a 30 year old there. 6d

TheSpineView @ShananigansReads IK! This part of the plot never made any sense. A God who doesn't set the rules??? Right... 5d
