Archangel's Kiss (Guild Hunter, #2) by Nalini Singh
Finished 10/9/2012
Rating: 5 stars
Link: New beginning


I wasn't so sure if I was going to like this one. I loved the romance so much between Raphael and Elena in the first book I was afraid this would fall short. I was wrong instead you see the bond between them grow stronger. What I love so much about these books is that the line between good and evil are blurred. I can't wait to read the next one.




Sorry for the short review but looks like today is another day with my son being home. When he takes his nap later I can come and post more if need be

Rating:★★★★

Review: I really enjoyed the storyline on this one! It is pretty cheesy and sappy, but I like those things in my books. This was an interesting take on soul mates, and the characters are very well drawn. There are quite a few typos, and it sometimes felt like a fanfic in the fact that there were a lot of unnecessary scenes (in my opinion). Despite all that, I had a good time reading all of it, even the unnecessary bits. Caleb is a total dreamboat of a boyfriend, and Maggie is a very likeable heroine. There were parts of it that felt a bit Twilight-y, but hey, I like Twilight so that was fine with me. Kyle is a bit Jacobish, and that made me dislike his character intensely. I found him to be extremely pushy and selfish (quite like how I felt about Jacob). I'm looking forward to seeing where this story will head now that both Caleb and Maggie have ascended. Really interested to find out about Caleb's powers.

Review: Wow finally I read a book this month that I really liked , I loved loved Lee , he was a frank and honest hero for a change and Indy wasn't TSTL(she was a bit on my nerves a bit though ) . I was ready to quit reading romance but this one changed my mind .

~Megan~ (megadee) The heroines in the Rock Chick books drive me bananas....it is definitely last on my list of favorite KA series. I'm glad you enjoyed it, Shosho, and that maybe your reading slump is over?!

I hope that it's over, I've been giving 2 or 3 stars to whatever I read.

I'm planing on reading her books in publishing order, that was her book first published book. I don't mind them being on my nerves as long as they redeem themselves by the end

I liked the first book but I had some problems with it. Like I got sick of her constantly mentioning her special blood and it driving vampires wild. I swear almost every page she had to mention it. Hopefully it doesn't happen much in this one LOL

Lala  | 85 comments The Immortal Rules (Blood of Eden, #1) by Julie Kagawa 15.10 5 Stars

This book is so refreshing!! it's not like any other vampire book with romance. There is girl likes a boy going on, but that's all and a girl is a vampire for a change. The world the author is build up is more lilke dystopya and there is a virus that makes humans monsters, plus vampire life is not that glamorous.

Everdark (Dark Ink Chronicles #2) by Elle Jasper
Read: 10/15/12
Link: Heroine is tattooed and a tattoo artist
3 stars

Let me start by saying the cover whore in me loved this cover. But beyond that this book was just meh for me. I enjoyed the first book a tiny bit more. But as with the first there were things that just ticked me off.

In the first book there were some sexy sex scenes but in this I swear every other chapter was some overly detailed sex scene. I'm not a fan of sex scenes. I find myself flipping through most of them.

I love me a kick-ass heroine. I love that Riley is unique and has a dark a gritty past. She is not angel and has done things in her life she is not proud of. That being said why does every kick-ass heroine have to do it in 6 inch stiletto boots and mini skirt?!?!

I'm in a real debate on whether or not I'll read the next one. With so many good books on my TBR list I'd rather not waste the time on something that most likely will be meh.

Unearthly (Unearthly, #1) by Cynthia Hand was really good YA read. I enjoyed it quite a bit :)


message 389: by ~Megan~ (new)

~Megan~ (megadee) I haven't read Unearthly, but I loved Angelfall!


message 390: by Melissa (new)

Melissa | 337 comments Hmmmm....I'm debating. I've really wanted to read Angelfall since before it came out but I also heard Unearthly was good. So I guess I've narrowed it down to those two


message 391: by Melissa (new)

Melissa | 337 comments Ok I've decided to go with Angelfall (Penryn & the End of Days, #1) by Susan Ee


message 392: by ShoSho , Moderator (last edited Oct 17, 2012 02:21PM) (new)

ShoSho  (shoshost) | 12263 comments I'll probably read Archangel's Storm (Guild Hunter, #5) by Nalini Singh but I started listening to The Unknown Ajax by Georgette Heyer which is funny and unfortunatley published a year too soon (1959) , if there is a character with any of those names in it I'll read this as my this week book otherwise I'll stick with Archangel's storm.
