Mel W (MelW) | 981 comments June already! This year is zooming by :)

So, what are you reading? I'm just about to start Everlasting Kiss by Amanda Ashley.

Everlasting Kiss


Photojim (Jim_formerly_Photojim) | 5290 comments Twin Temptation for the twin book is what I started this morning.


Dee | 5715 comments too many choices!! lol!!

I think i'm going to start reading one of my books for the monthly list, or maybe the lora leigh book...IDK...

It's goign to be between one of these three
Soul Deep (Breeds, #5) Faith & Fidelity (Faith & Fidelity, #1) Married By Morning (The Hathaways, #4)


Yz the Whyz (whyz) | 8589 comments Started C.L. Wilson's King of Sword and Sky while making breakfast. :)


D.G. | 3389 comments I just started this morning: Dead as a Doornail (Sookie Stackhouse, #5)...so far so good. :)


Ashley (ashleylaura87) | 444 comments I'm reading The Host. It's actually much better than I thought it'd be. I'm pretty engrossed actually. Her writing has vastly improved since Twilight.


Daffodil (Daffodil--RIPCranberry) | 810 comments I managed to finish Bloodring Bloodring (Thorn St. Croix, Book 1) over the weekend, so I'll be picking up Seraphs Seraphs (Thorn St. Croix, Book 2) at the library tonight and probably start it soon. Yesterday I read the first Blood Lily book, Tainted Tainted (The Blood Lily Chronicles, #1). Even though I felt like shouting at the main character a few times, I'm interested enough to pick up the next book and see where the series is going. Due to a bout of insomnia, I finally finished Dead in the Family Dead in the Family (Sookie Stackhouse, #10) at around 3:30 this morning. I started Magic to the Bone Magic to the Bone (Allie Beckstrom, #1) on the bus to work this morning and I didn't want to put it down once I got here. Now I have a hard decision ahead: nap or read on my lunch hour?


Jacqueline (jacquelineo) | 64 comments I'm currently reading the following
Ebook Sex and the Single Vampire (Dark Ones, #2)
Audiobook Delicious (Buchanans #1)


Michelle (meesh_ox) | 31 comments Currently reading...

Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater

and..

The Fiery Cross by Diana Gabaldon

So far I'm enjoying both of them.. it's just taking me forever to get through The Fiery Cross though.

I love the Outlander series, but The Fiery Cross is the slowest one, in my opinion. There's too much army / battle / strategy talk for me and not enough action.


Amy ~Lover of Books~ | 601 comments I am almost done with this ebook The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians Series #1)


BJ Rose (BJRose) | 3896 comments Enjoying Married By Morning (The Hathaways, #4)


Dee | 5715 comments i'm enjoying Married By Morning as well! And reading Faith & Fidelity

Julie (Mom2lnb) (mom2lnb) | 1236 comments I started The Nerd Who Loved Me by Vicki Lewis Thompson this afternoon. I hadn't been super-impressed with the first in the series, but this one seems to be off to a pretty good start.

I also started reading Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling with my daughter for summer break.:-)

Amy ~Lover of Books~ | 601 comments Finished The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians Series #1) last night
Now reading Hex Hall (Hex Hall, #1)

Ashley - This is the only book I've read that I've wanted to re-read the minute I finished it. I LOVED it!


m.allen | 41 comments I finished Sugar Daddy this morning. When I get home from work I'm going to start Lessons From a Scarlet Lady.


Sandra | 3704 comments Finished Fired Up (Dreamlight, #1) (Arcane Society, #7) this afternoon and will be starting Divided in Death (In Death, #18) tomorrow.

I loved this book too. I kept recommending it to my mom and finally bought her a copy for Christmas. My one line plot synopsis is always: Invasion of the Body Snatchers from an aliens point of view. I'm hoping SM gets around to writing a sequel sometime soon.


Gus (GusBus) | 114 comments I'm reading Waiter Rant  Thanks for the Tip-Confessions of a Cynical Waiter, which is hilarious, especially since I was a waitress before. And Storm Born (Dark Swan, #1) too! Storm Born is really good so far, I really love Richelle Mead's writing style! Most UF is pretty dark, but Mead is so funny!


LethalLovely~I'll Be Your River (LethalLovely) | 773 comments Finished: Strange Brew (Includes  The Dresden Files, #10.4)
Starting/currently reading: The Devil Inside (Morgan Kingsley, #1) A Witch's Beauty (Daughters of Arianne, #2)


Carolyn F. | 658 comments Sarah wrote: "Starting To Kill a Mockingbird."

I love that book Sarah. One of my top 10 favorites.


Nairabell | 432 comments I'm reading Hunted By The Others (H&W Investigations, #1). So far, so good.

Daffodil (Daffodil--RIPCranberry) | 810 comments Finished Magic to the Bone Magic to the Bone (Allie Beckstrom, #1) yesterday afternoon. I really loved it. Don't know why I never tried it before now. So now I have to get my hands on the next three in this series and hope they're just as good.

Since I'm trying to finish up some of the hanger ons in my currently-reading pile, I chose Nightlife Nightlife (Cal Leandros, #1) as the only book I took to the laundromat last night, giving myself no choice but to stick with it while doing laundry. I had a really hard time getting into this, but now I'm 2/3 of the way in and it's more interesting. I have scrapbook club tonight, so I doubt seriously I'll finish it today.

D.G. | 3389 comments I'm almost done with Dead as a Doornail (Sookie Stackhouse, #5) and I've enjoyed it a lot. This is not among my favorite series but I'm definitely looking forward to the rest of the books.

However, I think Sookie needs to give numbers to all those guys so they get in line! I wonder how she can keep them all straight...it seems that now anything with muscles and a penis is fair game for her. :p


Carolyn F. | 658 comments That sounds like Laurell Hamilton's Anita Blake!


Carolyn F. | 658 comments I finished Urban Shaman 3.5 stars and am now reading Wolf Tales I.


D.G. | 3389 comments Just finished Dead as a Doornail! Now to decide what to read next. :) I have two candidates from my challenges:The Glass Castle or Dream Man


Mel W (MelW) | 981 comments Kelley, I'm in awe that you can read that many books without getting confused :)

I'm currently reading Lora Leigh's Megan's Mark. My first by this author.


Carolyn F. | 658 comments I really like Lora Leigh Mel.


Erin (Erin-B) | 679 comments I finished Bullet (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter #19) and The Twilight Before Christmas (Drake Sisters, #2) (Christmas, #2) and now I think I'll pick up Visions of Heat (Psy-Changeling, #2). Or possibly Mind Game (GhostWalkers, #2), I can't decide.


Nairabell | 432 comments Mind Game rules Erin :)


Ashley (ashleylaura87) | 444 comments I'm reading Grave Surprise (Harper Connelly, #2) but will finish today; then I'll start A Secret Rage and Darkfever (Fever, #1)!!


D.G. | 3389 comments I'm reading The Glass Castle.


Nita (gillnit) Now reading Stealing Kathryn (The Gatherers, #2). So far better than the first in this series.


m.allen | 41 comments I'm reading Skeletons at the Feast and listening to Outlander. I've read Outlander a couple times before but this is my first time listening to it.


Dee | 5715 comments m. allen - enjoy! hopefully you have the unabridged version with Davina Porter...its awesome!


Carolyn F. | 658 comments I love the Outlander audiobook with Davina Porter too.

I finished Burning Alive and am trying to finish Wolf Tales I.


Erin (Erin-B) | 679 comments Nairabell wrote: "Mind Game rules Erin :)"

I'm glad to hear it. I really enjoyed Shadow Game last month so I'm looking forward to this one. I think I'll start it next.


Macwolf01 [Elise] (Macwolf01) | 868 comments Its seems the longer I play with you guys the less monogamous I become hehe

My days off are coming soon and I'm hoping to get some of my June challenge books done

That's what I have! I'm excited and actually can't wait to go to the gym tomorrow so I can start listening to it!

D.G. | 3389 comments I've actually never 'read' Outlander...just listened to books 1-4 with Davina Porter. She's really awesome. I'll see if I can listen book #5 this year!
