message 3251: by Claire (new)

Claire (claire1) | 4451 comments Ah! Sorry Margo!!

@Llaph Oh God (view spoiler) Given that I grew up with one nurse and my best friend is a nurse-in-training, I have a very different idea from most people about appropriate meal time conversation. But this pushed it.

So I finally finished Kindred (Kindred, #1) by Nicola Claire . Holy fuck was this a long book. However, the length really saved the book for me. The author put in a lot of detail and character development that invested me in the story line. I ended up enjoying it a lot more than I thought I would, though I'm not sure if I'm going to continue the series.


Finally started Magic Rises (Kate Daniels #6) by Ilona Andrews ! I'm only 7% of the way in and filled with anxiety. Also I daydream about having Kate's skills with a sword. I do not, however, envy her the childhood it took to hone said skills.

Llaph  (llaph) | 3285 comments lol Claire ... me and my cousin were called "the gross out twins" ... our goal on most mornings was to gross my mom out as much as we could to hve her threaten to "ppull the truck over" and make us walk. You would be surprised at the dinner conversations my family has sometimes.

The Lady and the Tramp refrrence made me wtflol ... that whole series is one of my favorites now.

I'm reading Magic Rises.


message 3255: by Zeenat (new)

Zeenat (zeekwon) | 6376 comments I actually like Lex, even if he got douchy at the end. But I don't think either guy is good for her. She should leave them both and have her own thing. lol

I wish I could go back and read magic rises for the first time again LOL

I'm rereading the dark-hunter books. Currently on Night Embrace (Dark-Hunter, #3) by Sherrilyn Kenyon . I forgot how awesome the world building was at the beginning. The sex was better too. Anddddd Nickkkkkk. :D


message 3256: by Claire (new)

Claire (claire1) | 4451 comments I was never that enamored of Night Hunter. Also the sex was the same in every single book. Grump.


message 3257: by Zeenat (new)

Zeenat (zeekwon) | 6376 comments Night Hunter? I think the sex got boring in the last few books. It's all slow romantic soap opera sex. When Talon grabs Sunshine, dude that was HOT. ;) Now all the men are pansy asses. lol


message 3258: by Margo (new)

Margo | 663 comments pansy asses, seriously? Well, Zeenat, maybe u should read The Golden Dynasty (Fantasyland, #2) by Kristen Ashley , there is a LOT of sex in that book and u can't say that Lahn is a pansy ass. That guy knows well what to do :D

@Zeenat I read "Dark Hunter" but I was thinking about "Night Huntress"...it's a bad idea.


I HATE Sunshine. I wanted to punch her in the face. Repeatedly.

LOL I don't know about pansy asses, but they are all like "I had the worst life possible, and a I need a woman to heal me and not use me like a sex object". Which is great I guess, very gender neutral. But I personally like my sexual reading to be a lot more raw. lol

But I may take you up on that ;)


message 3261: by Claire (new)

Claire (claire1) | 4451 comments yeah it's great to not be entirely one sided but that's not exactly fun to read


message 3262: by Diane (new)

Diane (FriskyVamp) | 372 comments Finished Accidental Demon Slayer

Now reading Ascension by Sable Grace.


message 3263: by Llaph (new)

Llaph  (llaph) | 3285 comments I agree with Claire on Sunny--she is a dumbass....

@Zeenat:
Lex is a douche and gets even worse through the series, while Terrible gets better. :x


message 3264: by Diane (new)

Diane (FriskyVamp) | 372 comments I wonder when there's going to be another Downside Ghosts book out?


message 3265: by Zeenat (new)

Zeenat (zeekwon) | 6376 comments On Downside--there are two short stories coming out: Wrong ways down I think august 6th, but I don't see it on Amazon yet.

Close to you, October.

Well that's better than nothing.


message 3267: by Llaph (new)

Llaph  (llaph) | 3285 comments Thanks I didn't know about the other one--I want a full book damnit.


message 3268: by Lannister (new)

Lannister (lannisteruk) | 10911 comments I've decided after the perfect lovefest of Magic Rises, I want something brutal and nasty. So I'm starting Prince of Thorns (The Broken Empire, #1) by Mark Lawrence

Arushi, I decided to push it up my list, cos I want to get away from luurve dramas. Hope it's good! :)


message 3270: by ♥ Ashleigh ♥ (new)

♥ Ashleigh ♥  Contrary to popular belief I'm not actually mad! (cheshire_red) read Mortal Engines (The Hungry City Chronicles, #1) by Philip Reeve In the Flesh by Portia Da Costa in the last couple of days, now reading The Iron Wyrm Affair (Bannon & Clare, #1) by Lilith Saintcrow , so far not as good as I was hoping, but not bad.

Dale Modisette (lordshrill) | 343 comments I just finished my 2nd book this month, Fall of Night (The Morganville Vampires, #14) by Rachel Caine Fall of Night (The Morganville Vampires #14) by Rachel Caine. My next book is Night Myst (Indigo Court, #1) by Yasmine Galenorn Night Myst (Indigo Court #1) by Yasmine Galenorn


message 3273: by Amber (new)

Amber (mixiemoon) | 233 comments Ok finally had time to read. I re-read Night Myst (Indigo Court, #1) by Yasmine Galenorn then read Night Veil (Indigo Court, #2) by Yasmine Galenorn . Trying to decide whether to start Affliction (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, #22) by Laurell K. Hamilton or Magic Rises (Kate Daniels #6) by Ilona Andrews .

Amber (mixiemoon) | 233 comments Oh god started affliction. And everything is "your so amazing I love you. You make me a better person since we met......... " It's annoying me hope it stops.

There is also lots of gore, later on. And (view spoiler)


message 3277: by Zeenat (new)

Zeenat (zeekwon) | 6376 comments OMG starting my reread of Seize the Night (Dark-Hunter, #7) by Sherrilyn Kenyon . I survived my first 3 or so times reading it... but I feel super anxious about this book. I dread it as much as I love it. I think it's the most difficult book ever. Probably because everyone else gets happy endings in past and future books, but not everyone one deserving gets it in this book :( AHHH!!

Yes I agree I feel like there are two different series. Books 1-10 then all the rest and yet I read every one that still comes out in the hopes it will be better again. :(.


message 3279: by Llaph (new)

Llaph  (llaph) | 3285 comments @ Claire:
RE: your spoiler ... thank god. There is still some hope for me then.

@Zeenat:
lolol
That book is so ... sad in some parts and so totally freaking frustrating. I still like it though ... Tabby has good taste in books too.


message 3280: by Claire (new)

Claire (claire1) | 4451 comments @Llaph Right? He remains unsullied!!!

Llaph  (llaph) | 3285 comments @ Claire:
Just have to have Donna die a horrible death ... or something quiet ... oh hell I just want her dead. The kids can stay though ... lol @ idea of Edward a single dad.

Finished:
Sacrificial Magic (Downside Ghosts, #4) by Stacia Kane


message 3282: by Claire (new)

Claire (claire1) | 4451 comments @Llaph I don't love Donna, but I don't want her dead. That might put Edward in a very bad place and I don't think that would end well for anyone...


message 3283: by Llaph (new)

Llaph  (llaph) | 3285 comments Bleh, she is such a ditz....


message 3284: by Zeenat (new)

Zeenat (zeekwon) | 6376 comments Donna is boring. Edward needs someone less boring.

Llaph  (llaph) | 3285 comments Finished:
Chasing Magic (Downside Ghosts, #5) by Stacia Kane
I do like Lex, but I feel sorry for him too. He is still a douch-bag though….

@Zeenat:
She is boring, maybe too much so for our Edward. It is that or she is just to cheesy/stupid for him. I think that he can do better really….


message 3286: by Zeenat (new)

Zeenat (zeekwon) | 6376 comments wait Llaph is this your first time reading the downside series?


message 3287: by Llaph (new)

Llaph  (llaph) | 3285 comments Er ... no it is the third I think.

I know I seen the story and what all happened different when I read the whole series back to back this time (the other 2 times I read up till City of Ghosts 1, then through to Sacrificial Magic, then I just read ChasingMagic when it came out). I didn't think about the amount of time that actually passes in those 5 books ... it is a short time period.

I waffle between disliking Lex a ton and feeling sorry for him.


message 3288: by Amber (new)

Amber (mixiemoon) | 233 comments Finished Affliction. Not bad compared to other recent additions to the series. I just can't stomach all love talk and relationship advice. It is just distracting and made me skip over, if it had been less than the book would have been 10 times better. I love the dynamic between Edward and Anita so glad they don't sleep together. I agree with you guys about Donna it doesn't fit with Edward.


message 3289: by Zeenat (new)

Zeenat (zeekwon) | 6376 comments will start Possession (Greywalker, #8) by Kat Richardson as soon as it gets here.


message 3290: by Amber (new)

Amber (mixiemoon) | 233 comments Starting Blood Revolution (God Wars #3) by Connie Suttle


message 3293: by Claire (new)

Claire (claire1) | 4451 comments So I'm gave Magic Rises (Kate Daniels, #6) by Ilona Andrews a break yesterday. I don't know why, I just wasn't in the mood.

I started Prince of Hearts (The Elders and Welders Chronicles Book 1) by Margaret Foxe instead and I'm almost done. I got it off the Kindle lending library and it's really good! I can't explain why I like it so much, exactly. Maybe because it's a romance without the usual cheesy bullshit I hate.


message 3295: by Lannister (new)

Lannister (lannisteruk) | 10911 comments Am reading Blood Song (Raven's Shadow, #1) by Anthony Ryan Absolutely loving this book. It's completely engrossing and the best fantasy I've read in ages. Highly recommend it (so far, anyway!)


message 3296: by Claire (new)

Claire (claire1) | 4451 comments I just bought Angel's Ink (The Asylum's Tales, #1) by Jocelynn Drake . I read the first few pages in the bookstore and it was interesting. I think I first added it to my to-read shelf when it came up as a recommendation based on the Dresden Files.


message 3297: by Zeenat (last edited Aug 06, 2013 02:40PM) (new)

Zeenat (zeekwon) | 6376 comments Claire, I have it cause I bought it for 99 cents or something. let me know how it is.

Will do! I enjoy Gage's narrative voice.

I read this book in June, Lannister. I loved it. I can't wait for the sequel. I completely fell in love with Vaelin.
