I quite liked the Emperor's Edge...need to get back into that series. I stopped after book three and just never got back to it.

[Anna (Bobs Her Hair)]

I'm starting (western historical romance) for a group read today.

[Courtney]

Ian - It seems pretty good so far but I'm only in 8%. It also doesn't hurt that it's free on Kindle! I tend to like these kinds of settings as well so definitely looking forward to see what's in store.

Jinx!!!

[Angie Elle, BaBAMB!!!]

In an effort to clean up my 'currently reading' shelf, I'm going to try and finish . I only have 17% left. It started off really good (the first 40-50%) and then went downhill for me.

Oh thanks for the heads up :)

[Regina]

Love the cover though Angie. ;)

I am 50% in to and really enjoying it.

I am also 50% into the audio of - -I am loving this series. I love that I found some UF books that I want to read. It has been awhile (unless they were my favorites like Dresden Files and Mercy Thompson).

[Leea, Escape Artist]

I've been so distracted for the last 6 weeks. I'm so glad you're enjoying it Regina.

I'm going to start a new series with Wendy, tomorrow.

[Ian]

Oh my. This book is terrible...but I just can't look away. It's strangely compelling.



It's like The Room....so bad it's good.

[Regina]

Leea you didn't like the interrogation of ashala wolf?

I hope you and Wendy like Kara Gillian as much as I do!

[Kay]

I started reading and it's just going ok. I feel like I haven't found anything to "wow" me in a long time.

[Regina]

Anyone know why my notification level for this thread routinely changes? It is pretty annoying, I have it set to "email all" and then occasionally (like once a week) it goes back to "individual". So weird!

Ooh, I want a good UF series. And I like your recs, Regina. Going to check this out. :)

[Kay]

My notifications are all whacky too. I have no idea why.

[Regina]

Its weird, like its a reset. I am guessing it is more expensive for GR to email me all of the posts. :)

Tellulah (and Wendy and Leea), I enjoyed the first one in the Kara Gillian series. It was a solid book, the heroine is just not typical. She isn't beautiful, she isn't buff or strong, she has body self esteem issues. She is lonely. I often don't like cop investigation stories unless they are done with a focus on the characters - and this is what this series is. Now the 2nd book raised the level of enjoyment and I am liking the 3rd even more. The series just keeps getting better. But I enjoyed #1. Not sure why it doesn't get more attention. There are some twists and reveals happening now that I am really liking.

The cover is the highlight of the book. LOL It's always a bad sign if the book starts going downhill when the main characters actually meet.

[Tellulah]

Finished Ready this series really has been like watching a soap. It had been fun but by book three, this one, I was sitting there thinking "are we really still on these storylines?" Then about halfway through - the twist! Amping up the action and ensuring we stuck around. For another book.

Oh I didn't get past the first chapter... It wasn't the book it was me. It's just too busy around here and I haven't been reading or had the desire to read. I hope to read it another time.

Thanks Regina! I love your recommendations.

[Dee]

FINALLY finished The Game and the Governess - I enjoyed it while I was reading it, but when I stopped it was like ehhh...then I had to make myself pick it back up...(if that makes sense)

[Ian]

Have to say...Walking on Air is terrible. I've read a few Catherine Anderson books, liked some...felt a but meh about others.

But this book is cringeworthy...and what's with info-dumping in a Western?

I walked away at 35%.

[Dee]

yeah CA is not a favorite author of mine...I keep trying her but blech...its like she and Diana Palmer are stuck in the 70's

[Ian]

Oh Diana Palmer. I've read one book by her...I think it was called The Texas Ranger...and I was so furious that I used it as a target at the range.

[Dee]

i don't know why I kept reading her for soo long...I rememebr reading her when I first starting reading romance...and realized how bad she was...but I guess its like a car accident, you can't just look away, you have to watch until the bitter end

[Kay]

I finished and didn't really care for it. But I still like other books by this author so I will read more by her.

I also finished and it was a fun contemporary.

[Tellulah]

Read Well written but just depressed by the end of it. One of those books I kind of wish I hadn't read.

[Regina]

Oh, I have had that happen. You need to clean your palette with something fun.

I just finished and I loved the big reveal. Now on to

I finished I loved the first 75% - 5 stars. Lst 25% was 3 stars, but I will still read the sequel.

I am now reading yayay!!

[Dee]

reading Because of You - the author def. has experience with the military and its not a whimsical romance either - its harsh (solider recovering from injury, attempted suicide etc)...some of the reviews mention a "cliff-hanger" but it seems that it is the other couple who are introduced in this story - so I don't know if I could call it a cliff-hanger or not

[Regina]

That sounds really interesting.

[Kay]

Dee, there's no cliffhanger in that book...at least i don't remember it. The author is an officer and I thought her words showed her experience too. I liked the book bc it didn't have all all the suspenseful action like most books dealing with the military. It made the characters more real bc when these military people aren't fighting wars, they are regular people too and it was nice reading that side of things.

[Kay]

I'm in a rut again. I don't know what it is about this year where I haven't been reading at my every free minute.

I know - I figured that out...it was irking me to see the 1 star reviews accusing the author of trying to game readers out of money etc...

[Regina]

When I read a book by Laini Taylor it makes me realize how talented she is. Almost every sentence is beautiful.

[Dee]

i'm almost done with DoBaS...and oh my god! (I have like 20 minutes left)...I was soo debating just sitting in the car this am to finish listening to it

[Regina]

She is such an amazing author -- both in how she writes, her characters - and a third -- the world she creates.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

I agree. She's something special. I wish I could write like her.

[Kay]

I started reading .

I've been like that for weeks, Kay. I don't know what will fix it.

That looks good thought... Let me know what you think.

[Kay]

I partly think that I pick up too many blah books so then I'm stuck in a rut.

Historical Western is usually the category that can get me out. I will let you know how it goes.

[Leea, Escape Artist]

I love Historical Western... Fingers are crossed

[Dee]

listening to the audiobook of The Wanderer now - it was one of the romance books nominated for an audie...decidedly underwhelmed...not as much as with the Bella Andre book that was nominated...but man, the audio really makes her redundancy stand out

[Dee]

Kay - have you tried Beth Williamson and her Malloy series? I think Samhein released them a few years back, but they are decent reads - similar to the rough riders, in the whole family aspect, but not as steamy and historical

[Regina]

Dee I agree. I listened to a few of her other series by audio. I had to listen on 2x speed.
