There are so many great books that people read very day, and their lists of great books pile up. So this is a thread where if you've just read a book recently, and you thought it was amazing, and think other readers will enjoy the story as well, then post it here :)

I just finished reading Blood Solstice by Samantha Young which is the last book in the Lunamorte trilogy, and it was FANTASTIC! I would recommend anyone who enjoys paranormal romance/adventure reads. Also has a bit of greek god mythology mixed in with the supernatural stuff, I enjoyed all three books. The first book is called Moon Spell.

So far my favorite book of the year would have to be Poison Princess (The Arcana Chronicles, #1) by Kresley Cole it was amazing and this new world that's brought to us through this book really can pull a reader in. I'd recommend this to anyone who owns the book and is hesitant, or anyone who doesn't have it you need to go borrow it from your library, or a friend. Or just buy it. I can't wait for the next installment.

If you guys like Rick Riordan, I suggest reading Loki's Wolves (The Blackwell Pages, #1) by K.L. Armstrong that comes out next week. I was fortunate to get an ARC a couple months ago and I loved it! It's like Percy Jackson meets Norse gods set in the Midwest!

Gena Showalter is amazing. I haven't read this one yet but I've had my eye on it since she released it, how are you enjoying it so far?
