Oh & Yay...I have the first one on my list for Dec. Forgot it was written by Shayne. Sleep With the Lights On (Brown and de Luca, #1) by Maggie Shayne


Kris (My Novelesque Life) (mynovelesquelife) | 9 comments Maggie Shayne's series is crazy good! Hope you enjoy it when you get to it, Sandra :)

I'm sure I will, Kris. Jonetta's recommendations are always really good. If she loves a book, I know I will! Planning to read Sleep with the Lights on in Dec.


Kris (My Novelesque Life) (mynovelesquelife) | 9 comments This is one series I'm actually caught up on. I can't wait to hear your thoughts on it.

Thanks for the recommendation, Jonetta. I just downloaded the prequel to my Kindle. ;)

Also, at 75% reading and listening to a paranormal mystery romance The Restorer The Restorer (Graveyard Queen, #1) by Amanda Stevens . This is the first book in Amanda Stevens' The Graveyard Queen series. It's a real page turner -- can't put it down!

Donna - I read all 3 books (Graveyard Queen series) straight through...this is an Amazing series by Stevens. I was mesmerized by it and can't wait for book 4 to release. The audios are wonderful also!!

That series is WONDERFUL! If it's possible for you to get the audiobooks, I highly recommend you give them a shot. The narrator is excellent.

I read it and really liked the book, which is an odd way of expressing my feelings as I disliked all the characters:) There are some shocking twists and it's an emotional roller coaster. Enjoy!

I finished Something to Prove by Shannyn Schroeder, The O'Leary's #3, and loved it. Here's my review.

I'm now reading A Maiden's Grave by Jeffery Deaver.

Kirsten  (kmcripn) I've been listening to Hyde Hyde by Daniel Levine by Daniel Levine. It's a wonderfully gothic and engrossing read. Gives you a whole different opinion of Mr. Hyde.

I agree… the characters are very unlikeable. I can't believe I'm still reading it since I'm so disgusted with the characters and the way they treat each other but it is so compelling…I just can't stop. Have to find out how this ends.

I really want to read this series. If not Dec., Jan. for sure.

Love to BR it. Let me know when you'd like to start & I'll pencil it in. :)


message 2376: by Quynh (new)

Quynh (quynh_o) | 1269 comments Either Dec or Jan. I think you have a busier reading schedule than I do.


message 2377: by Sandra (new)

Sandra Hoover (sandrahoover) | 11216 comments Mod
Quynh...I'm to the point of laughing when I look at my reading schedule. And the thing is - they are all books/series I am anxious to read because I know how good they'll all be. It's insane. I'm thinking Jan. if you're okay with waiting until then. Then, we can knock out the series in 2015...maybe a book a month? I do that with several ongoing series to keep them all moving forward. Or if they are crazy good, I'll read them faster. We can work that out.


message 2378: by Quynh (new)

Quynh (quynh_o) | 1269 comments Yep January sounds good. And one book a month is fine too. :) I have lots of book choices to keep me entertained in December already.

message 2381: by Rachael (new)

Rachael (dleurban) | 33 comments I'm reading Eternity in Death (In Death, #24.5) by J.D. Robb . Somehow I skipped over this one.
I'm not a fan of the story this time around (so far), but at least there's really nice humor mixed in with the vampire stuff.

Jonetta (ejaygirl) | 15063 comments Mod
I didn't care for it much, either.


Kris (My Novelesque Life) (mynovelesquelife) | 9 comments Yeah, same here.

message 2393: by Dawn (new)

Dawn | 3250 comments I am listening to Hidden Girl The True Story of a Modern-Day Child Slave by Shyima Hall . The narration is good, a bit halted and long pauses, but good overall. The story has me riveted. An amazing story of the human ability to persavere. It is the daily deal at Audible for $2.95.

Have been trying to get a chance to start reading Banishing the Dark (Arcadia Bell, #4) by Jenn Bennett but haven't had any reading time. Maybe tonight.

Ivy festive in death, cat on the edge, the book thief, an uninvited ghost and top secret 21.

will probably start NR's sign of seven trilogy again cuz its good on a cold winter day to have a Guinness beef stew in the slow cooker and a great scary story to read

You weren't kidding when you said you read multiple books at a time! I'm impressed you can keep them all straight.

That's a lot at once, Ivy. Awesome you can do that. I can only manage 2 - one to read & one to listen to as I work/drive.


message 2400: by Ivy (new)

Ivy thanks ladies. It helps that they're different storylines and characters. I tried reading 2 Robbs at the same time and I was befuddled and bewildered. could not do it!
