What are you reading?



I just finished

I JUST finished that trilogy yesterday. I had read it years ago so I went ahead and got the audio version. I really liked it.
I finished The Park of Sunset Dreams by Ava Miles and loved it!
I'm now reading Taken with You by Shannon Stacey.

I finished listening to The Collector by Nora Roberts and loved it, especially this format. The narration was very good (Julia Whelan), too.
I'm now listening to Forged In Ash by Trish McCallan.

@jonetta, I'm reading The Collector, really enjoying it! I'm about half way thru, enjoying the humor in this one! It's an ebook from library, so far no editing errors or typos! It's the quality I had come to expect from her books, but had lost with recent publications. I know several people said it was very similar to a previous one, but evidently I hadn't read that one.

If you look at the GR reviews they mention which book & characters it is. I know one of the trilogies I read was very, very similar to another one she wrote. I still enjoyed it though, since it had been awhile since I had read the other one.
I really don't like when that happens, Shari. If I've followed a character through a few books and then he/she seems to have a different personality in a new release, it really bugs me...doesn't ring true. Even with a life altering event, their basic, familiar personality would remain the same, even if they acted a little out of character.

Hope he makes a nice turn before you reach the end.

I had to pause Forged In Ash to listen to Fatal Consequences by Marie Force, which was wonderful. Now back to Forged.
I'm also reading Seduced by Cari Quinn and Taryn Elliott.

I haven't read her 'Burg series, Donna. I've enjoyed most of her other series.

I'm up to the 6th book in the series and love it. You have to hold your nose reading the first, über cheesy book in the series, Fantasy Lover, but the books get progressively better after that one. I've loved all the rest.

I, unfortunately, listened to the audiobook for that one. The second half of the book is better but the first half was just painful.
The next books are so different from this one. Hang in there!

I love the Dark Hunter series but have to agree that the first one is....oh my, what is the word?...I'll go with cheesy also! :) Later books are really good with a good, in depth story/character line.

I couldn't think of any other word, either, and remember constant eye rolling through the first half of the story.

Me too! I was like WHAT?! I don't think the first book did the series justice and I hope people aren't so put off that they don't continue it as there are some really good reads in that series. I grew to love that world with it's many characters.
Completely agree. If I hadn't had friends urging me to continue, I wouldn't have. Love this series.
A good friend is the reason I read the series also. She kept insisting that I would love it if I gave it a chance. She was right. It's been a long time since I read the earlier books...would love to do a reread if I could ever work it in.

Yes, I like "the 'Burg" series as much as the Colorado Mountain series. I found Jagged and Kaleidoscope to be my least fave in Colorado. "For You", the first 'Burg book, was my least favourite but I loved the other three - added bonus, book 5 comes out next week.

Jonetta, I listened to the Audible version of The Collector too, and I just loved it. I agree with you that the narration was quite good.
