If you like the Iron Druid series I think you will like this one. Similiar but the man character is an crime investigator. Going to start
Love Jack Reacher & I'm well over due to read this.

Finished
and
, so I now have 5 more to finish. I decided to stop sulking and picked up
again, just to realize that 1) I don't like the book and 2)it really frustrates and sometimes annoys me like no tomorrow. I don't get it. Is a good book. A solid book. Well written, great plot, good world building, strong characters, I should totally love it. Instead, I keep forcing myself to read. But I'm as stubborn as a mule, so I will read it and won't give up on the series.
Stayed up late last night to finish
It was really good.
Currently reading
but having a bit of a block at the moment.....Don't think it has anything to do with the book but that it just me so think I am gonna have to switch to something light and come back to it in a little while.....Gonna start
tonight!
In my opinion the Remy Chandler books just get better as they go. I wait impatiently for each new book to come out. Currently I am reading
,
,
, and
.

I just love that Jason.Sucks I have so much reading for work but hopefully I can finish

Going to finish up
today. Really enjoyed this series. Makes me want to go poke around in old cemetaries. Not sure what will be next.
I finished American Gods, No Dominion, and Magic In The Blood and enjoyed all three bokks. American had numerous appearances by mythological characters and mythology is a huge passion of mine. No Dominion had a heavy focus on Gary with appearances by Cernunos and Morrison so it couldn't be anything but awesome. Magic In The Blood continues the Allie Beckstrom series - the plot was a bit weak but I like Allie, Zavyion, and Violet so I enjoyed it.Up next are God Save The Queen, Entangled, and Unbound.
Went to the library to get my kids some Magic Tree House books and found
sitting there waiting for me to check it out. Was surprised it was in. Just finished it & I have to say I think I'm done with this series. This book was really just more of the same from the last two. I don't need a happily ever after in all my books but geez this is book 11 & people just keep dieing and no one is happy & everything looks bleak. This was my first uf/pnr series so I'm feeling a little sad about this break up. Anyways.......going back to
and then on to

I'm reading
and then I'm going to be starting
which I just came across at the library. Has anyone read this? I've read this author's series about the PI who investigates casino scams & I've really like them. Didn't know he had a paranormal one. Interested to see what it will be like.
Dark Magic does sound good Alisa, will be interested to see what you think of that one :)
Ooh, I haven't started that one yet Sandra J. Hope its up to the usual standard :)I'm a third of the way into
and enjoying it so far. Just a bit different in Vamp terms.
I'm really enjoying the whole series, and I'm not a huge fan of the fae. Gotta love Puck though!
Sandra wrote: "...I'm a third of the way into and enjoying it so far. Just a bit different in V..."That is good to know. I am still on the wait list from the library.
Finished
really really good.
With the new releases today I have
up next to read.
Sonia wrote: "Finished really really good."Agreed very good!
Darcy wrote: "With the new releases today I have up next to read."Lucky devil I cannot wait to read Winterblaze!!
I cannot believe Argeneau has 18 books wow
Dawn wrote: "I cannot believe Argeneau has 18 books wow"I know, they are fun ones to read, certainly not high brow reading, but fun.
My copy of
is in the hands of the mail man. But I'm not up to it yet :D
I have been reading this book called
It does not suck, the heroine is really anoying though instead of whining why not open your mouth and have a conversation?? I am hoping they will do this before the book ends.
Still reading
which is honestly a good book but it is not holding my interest.I cannot figure out what I want to read so while I will continue on with these two I am also adding...
Dawn, I thought
just seemed to go on forever. There was a natural stopping point and then EA just started a whole new line of consciousness. I got bored. Haven't picked up the next couple though I'd already bought them.
I'm reading
which I got free earlier this week & it's pretty good. It was described as "steampunk western" & that sounded unique enough to try. It started off reminding me of the TV show Supernatural. Dad & his three hunters sons except it's set it the 1880's. They're now grown up & one of the boys has joined forces w/a succubus demon that wants her soul back, to find a mystical book that may or may not be hidden by the entrance to hell.

Dawn, I think they are up to about book 6 or 7. I know I've got the first 3 and just having a quick look, nothing is resolved yet. Which is pretty typical, but I'm used to EA being shorter and I'm not sure she's suited to the longer length book, it was almost like 2 books in one.
Alisa, glad you're enjoying that one, I picked it up free last year, but haven't gotten to it yet ;)Reading my last challenge book for the month
I think I want to read other stuff by her because she is quite talented.

I have a few others lined up to try at some point.
Alisa, have you tried
the Parasol Protectorate series? Supes, Victorian England, Steampunk.
Sandra wrote: "Alisa, have you tried the Parasol Protectorate series? Supes, Victorian England, Steampunk."That sounds really good. Totally unique. I'll have to give it a try. Thx
Steampunk is something that I really want to like, so I keep trying a lot of them. But I have only really found a couple that I have finished or even liked. Steampunk seems to be a genre where either you love it or hate it.
It can be done really badly for some reason. Maybe its just one of those things, the combination of historical, romance, mechanics and fun, just makes it difficult.
I want to like steampunk but I just never seem to. I want to try and read
but if that does not work it maybe a lost cause.
You should try it Dawn, but go the library route, so then if you don't like it, all you are out is time.
