Sandra | 25908 comments I haven't read that one Lethal, and I noticed Steph hasn't either, it's on her tbr list.

It's got good ratings, so I say you read it and let us know, then we can rush out and try it, if it's Lethal approved. LOL.

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments LOL! I love that idea. :)

Aske | 119 comments Sorry to bother, but I had already posted my review on Sin Undone for PNR-Angeldemon-etc. shelf and it wasn't accounted for in the update.

Desperado (lethallovely) | 1360 comments Ah crap. Sorry Aske, I didn't see your rating & review. I'll update the group list & I'm sure Steph will come in & give us our stamp-yay!-when she reads your comment. Thanks for pointing it out. =)

Aske | 119 comments No problem. Thanks much! :D


message 259: by Angi (new)

Angi | 485 comments Hi ladies!

Finished "White Cat" by Holly Black. It was... Different. I liked it- it was different. Dark and strange, but intriguing. I didn't feel like there was any real climax to the story... Just one strange thing after the other. I'll read the next but because I didn't LOVE it, I give it 3 stars.


message 260: by Angi (new)

Angi | 485 comments Ohhh "The Rest Falls Away" is fantastic. I finished the series a couple months ago and just LOVED it! :))


message 261: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments HiYa, Ang! You home or still enjoyin' holiday time in the US?

Ditto on "Gardella Vamp Chronicles". It was one of the only historicals I actually enjoyed (so far).


message 262: by Angi (new)

Angi | 485 comments We head back on Friday... So not ready but looking forward to being in my own home again :)


message 263: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Yeah, I know what ya mean. Gets harder to leave, the longer you stay, but it is always nice getting back to your home.


message 264: by Desperado (new)

Desperado (lethallovely) | 1360 comments I'll be reading Grave Peril (The Dresden Files, #3) by Jim Butcher for Urban Fantasy Paranormal. A friend & I are planning to buddy read it this weekend.


message 265: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Enjoy, Lethal! :)


message 266: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments Buddy reads are so much fun ;)


message 267: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Agreed! :D When's our next one?


message 268: by Desperado (new)

Desperado (lethallovely) | 1360 comments Thanks, Steph! I agree. =) This will be my 2nd buddy read. I'm very excited.


message 269: by Amanda A (new)

Amanda A | 812 comments I read My Soul to Take for the Urban Fantasy Paranormal shelf. This (and the prequel) was the first book by Rachel Vincent that I have read and I really liked it. (I don't know why it took me so long to try this author) The whole concept of banshees in a uf/pnr book was different. I didn't know much about banshees before, so it was interesting to learn more about them. I look forward to seeing what the future holds for Kaylee and her relationship with Nash in the next book. Good thing I already have it and book 3 from the library! :)

Finished 1/6
★★★★

BTW - just an update. I'm back in Budapest. Bittersweet. Hard to leave home, but I sure missed my crap and my own space lol. PLUS Internet is WAY faster here. Back to reality!!


message 275: by Desperado (new)

Desperado (lethallovely) | 1360 comments Welcome home, Angi! IMO, nothing beats your own space & bed.


message 276: by Angi (new)

Angi | 485 comments Thanks Lethal!! :)) I soooo agree. I love my own space and schedule lol

message 279: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments :) Hope you have some good ones to make it fun and not a chore.


message 280: by Angi (new)

Angi | 485 comments Ohhh all good I hope! :) I bought myself "Paranormal"... Then booksfree sent me "Magic Bites", "Unholy Magic", "Strange Brew", "Beautiful Creatures" and "Tracking the Tempest"... I am trying to finish "Twice Bitten" now. See my dilemma?????? Lol


message 281: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments All good problems to have Angi!


message 282: by Angi (new)

Angi | 485 comments Ohhh great to hear!! ;))


message 283: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Definitely! Enjoy! :)


message 284: by Desperado (new)

Desperado (lethallovely) | 1360 comments Finished my book for Urban Fantasy Paranormal.

Grave Peril ★★★☆☆ 1/11/11

I didn't like it as much as Fool Moon. It became very repetitive over time, with Harry doing the same damn thing over & over again. I wasn't too thrilled about the ghost storyline either, since ghosts scare the living shit out of me. GP just didn't grab my attention & keep me on my toes like FM did. While I am starting to enjoy this series, I don't think I'll ever be as obsessed with it as many of my friends are. Maybe if I had've read this series when it first came out. Now, I've read way too many awesome UF novels to be wowed by Butcher's world. It doesn't suck but I've read better. I will say that Butcher really knows how to creep you out when he wants to. He excels at creating the perfect monster.


message 285: by Angi (new)

Angi | 485 comments Ohhh I think my favorite subjects to read about other than fairies are ghosts and I love to be scared. I might have to give it a read on that alone lol

while on this subject has anyone read "Come Closer"? Scared the bajeezus out of me!

message 287: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Our next shelf will be announced this weekend! :)


message 288: by Desperado (new)

Desperado (lethallovely) | 1360 comments WOO!


message 289: by Angi (new)

Angi | 485 comments Can't wait! :))


message 290: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments OUR NEXT SHELF IS ..... 'wishlist'
DIRECT LINK: 'wishlist'

NOTE: This shelf is a doozy! It holds 100,000 books. Remember: Instead of flipping through every page of the shelf listing to find a book, you can check your books for the shelf. This thread explains how to do that search, if you need help, just holler. :)


Happy Reading, Everyone!!


message 291: by Angi (new)

Angi | 485 comments Yeah! Very exciting! :) I'll be reading "Unholy Magic" by Stacia Kane for my wishlist book. Unholy Magic (Downside Ghosts, #2) by Stacia Kane


message 292: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Enjoy, Ang! I thought that one was better than #1. Hope you like it.

message 294: by Desperado (new)

Desperado (lethallovely) | 1360 comments Hmmm. I'm going to have to think about this one. Unfortuntely, due to my obsession with my new K3, I've read most of my challenge books for this month already. So do I wait for Archangel's Consort to come out & use that or do I deviate from Jan's itinerary? Quite the conundrum.


message 295: by Angi (new)

Angi | 485 comments Thanks for always making our list so nice Lethal! It's so great to see them all compiled nicely :)

Hmm you have quite a choice on your hands. Good luck choosing! I base mine on the books I need to send back to booksfree :) I had a few to choose from and was going to choose "Magic Bites" but for some reason booksfree took it off of my queue so it doesn't really matter if I send it back now or later. So, I chose one that if I send it back they will send me another..... Confused yet??? I think I am lol


message 296: by Aske (new)

Aske | 119 comments That really is confusing Angi. By the way, welcome back. Hope you had a good trip and all! :)

I want to continue the Shifters series so I shall be reading Rogue by Rachel Vincent for the wishlist shelf. Can't wait!


message 297: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Not bad choices to have, Lethal! :)

LOL @ Angi! You were just tryin' to confuse us, weren't cha?!

Enjoy the continuation of Shifters, Aske!


message 298: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

Judithe | 6566 comments I feel whiny...I want BooksFree to ship to me, too....dang!


message 299: by Aske (new)

Aske | 119 comments Um, so I finished Rogue by Rachel Vincent just now. All house work was completely neglected and same will most likely go for tomorrow too because I got the next book in the series. Overall the book was good, but I was disappointed at some of the events that happened. Mostly the way that Faythe acted up with Marc, but oh well. I give the book 3★ and can't wait to finish the next book.


message 300: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

Judithe | 6566 comments Don't worry...the housework won't run off somewhere. It's happy (generally) to wait for you :D Have fun reading the next!
