I told myself I’d wait til it was more or less completed but I couldn’t help myself 😩 now I gotta waitttt.
Eagerly awaiting the next chapter 💕
I just got a tablet and started checking out all the authors I read/like and just discovered these extra chapters.Bones is my favorite character.( Ian and Vlad are close seconds)These chapters are excellent.Really funny.Thank you and well done!
I really, really miss Cat and Bones and all of Bones’ friends. They were a unique group because your imagination took us to a whole new world of vampires/ghouls/shifters/ghost, etc. Thank you.
Thank you Jeaniene for your gift of more insight into Cat and Bones relationship. I can never get enough of your writing and look forward to this every week! 🙂
I love it ssooo much please say that you are going to make it into an ebook pretty please?
If I ever finish it, I probably will :).
Love these. I’m here every day looking for wicked bite excerpts, and getting this fresh retake of Cat and Bones is helping to curb my hunger.
Super feliz… Em ter os pensamentos de Bones.
OMG! The conversation between Spade and Bones is FANTASTIC! I love seeing more in depth into their friendship as well. This is all just so wonderful!!! Please dont ever stop!
😍
Thank you, Jeaniene, I’m so enjoying this. I hope you have a great weekend!
Oh my gosh! What a great treat to have two chapters! It is so great to see how Bones deals with things and him calling his best friend for advice and support. Looking forward to the next chapter!
OMG! Love it, every bit of it!
I sincerely hope(wish) you continue out the entire series from Bone’s perspective lol. I’m loving the other side of things here. I’d so buy the entire series again from Bone’s view. Love your work, btw.
I’m glad to see Bones made a mistake and was pissed with himself for doing so. It’s so tricky with the ‘I’m in love with you but hiding it’ trope to give the non POV character good motivations while they are being a jerk. But having Bones just be jealous and flawed seems far more real. Please keep going!
I really miss Bones and Cat. Is it next Fri yet?
You should write the books again from Bones POV there is no much more to the story then we thought and it’s amazing. I’d be running out to get them as soon as they were on the shelves!!
+1000
Yes please rewrite all the books from Bones perspective. They would be so amazing.
Thanks for sharing this with us!
This is fantastic! I loved how we got some new pieces with how they interacted during Cat’s training and later the phone call to Spade. Thank you!
thank you!
thank you!
it is always a pleasure to reread you novels!
Please don’t stop! I’m falling for bonnes again. I love you Jeaniene, you are the best!! We Brazilian love you!💕💕💕
Thank you! I look forward to these every week!
Thanks Jeanine for writing us another great 2 chapters. It has made my day and now all is right in the world! hahaha
Plus one to all comments above!
Thanks so much!
Wooow!
The best time of the year. Thank you for the very best gift of all. I really hope your publisher will see the huge potencial that comes along with the series from Bones point of view. If there is any chance- your fans will fight for it 🙂
You are such an amazing author!
OMG I love this so much! Reading about how jealous he was just thinking about her with past partners makes me want Bone’s POV from so many other books! Like when she was on assignment with Tate at the carnival to get closer to Patra, and when Bones thought she had slept with Vlad. Thank you for this, even though I want a whole lot more! 😉
While I have read everything you’ve published, as well as many other series, Cat and Bones will always be my all time favorite couple. I adore reading this from Bone’s point of view. Please please please publish this at some point. And feel free (please do) to do the entire series from Bone’s perspective.
I can’t believe I have to wait another week! I am addicted!! ❤️
I love this!! Thank you so much!
Good thing I don’t have a remote like it the movie Click to fast forward till next Friday. I can’t wait for more!
Cat and Bones are my favorite books. I would buy all of them from Bones point of view..
Thank you very much!!!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to do write this for us every week.
Love it, love it, love it!!! Thank you so much.
Love it! What a wonderful pre-birthday gift! Can’t wait to read more!!!!
💙💙💙💙. I loved it the 1st time around and am totally loving Bones’ point of view!!!!
Your rewrite from Bones’s POV is a great read! I love this world you created and your wonderful books.
I so look forward to the next chapters. I so miss Bones’ wit and Cat’s bantering. Can’t wait for more.
How amazing, I really have missed them. Thank you so much!
Bone’s stream of consciousness as he talks to Cat and the conversation he had with Crispin were flippin’ fantastic. Thanks so much for writing this. Night Huntress has always been one of my favorite series and getting to see it all from Bones perspective, right back where it all began is such a wonderful and generous gift.
Thank you.
Really, really, REALLY hope your publisher is paying attention to the amount of interest in this new perspective on your NYT best-selling series, and that they will green-light a full book with Bones’ perspective on the story and characters all your readers adore so so much! Fingers and toes crossed, and if there’s someone we should tell let us know.
Thank you! I look forward to these each time you post!
Q: Will Timothy’s story ever be revealed?
2nd Q: Will we see a book from Katie’s pov as an adult?
+1 on Timothy. Will we get more of him?
Actually, you’ll get a peek at Timothy this week, and not in a new OTHER HALF OF THE GRAVE chapter. This will be in a new snippet from WICKED BITE :).
Dear Ms Frost,
We, your beloved readers, are having a problem with waiting a week between chapters. So I’ve written to the United Nations and they have agreed the issue has international implications nearly as severe as climate change. Therefore, they proposed the following calendar update starting this week:
Monday, 9 December 2019 will also be known as “Friday”;
Tuesday, 10 December 2019 will also be known as “Friday”;
Wednesday, 11 December 2019 will also be known as “Friday”;
Thursday, 12 December 2019 will also be known as “Friday” …
I whole completely agree with this schedule!
Snort. I’ll get right on this new, “official” schedule!
Hope you have wonderful holidays!
(Glad I could get a “snort” 🙂
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Absolutely brilliant! These are one of the highlights of the week for me. Once done with Kat and Bones from Bone’s pov, will you do Vlad and Frankie from Vlad’s pov? Ohh
I may be getting a head of myself but ….when Kat goes and stays with Vlad it was so heart aching Bone’s pov of that would be so wonderful to read. Please continue with Bone’s pov with the others . I think you will find many would love to read them . I know I would love to read and own them.
I absolutely love how Bones in a moment calls Charles asking for advice as if they were 2 school girls talking about a cute boy. Love seeing this side of Bones, it melts my heart to know he is a sexy bad boy with a caring heart underneath. Roll on the next chapter
I love the series and the characters. I enjoy reading the series and these.
Love the series
Can’t wait to get the new book let us know when we can preorder unless I win a free copy! Happy Holidays!!
❤️love it! It’s so hard to come to the end of the chapter and have to wait for the next one! But every new post it’s worth the wait. Thank you for keeping Bone and Cat alive for us.
Soooooooo good! I can’t wait for the next bit 😁
I’m re-reading the whole series in order now. Love them!
Just…WOW! Every bit as engaging, fascinating, intensely thrilling as Cat’s side of the grave. “Thank you” just does not seem enough, somehow.
Love this. This is great! Thank you for writing more. Can’t get enough of Cat and Bones!!
Love the peak into Bones and Spade’s friendship!!!!
I’m screaming! I love seeing this side of the grave!
It always bothered me that Bones takes her “virtue” away by teaching her to be a seductress.
His comment on her blushing at innuendo. This is what he loves about her and he will take it away. It’s necessary, but I still hate what is coming.
It’s like reading a whole new story. Can’t wait to see what happens next.
Reading the story from Bones’ point of view makes me want to read the series, again.
OMG!! I love this POV!! I’ve waited until now to read it, and I finished it in one night! Since this damned pandemic hit, I would assume you had lots of time to write more, but after chapter nine, there is nothing!! What’s going on, Jeanine? Did you forget about your loyal fans?!?! I so want to read more!!! PLEASE WRITE MORE OF THIS STORY!! Or at least pick up where you left off with the Cat and Bones series!! Hope all is well in your world. Sharon
