Exactly! I'm really enjoying that they're traveling and we get Andrews beautifully written descriptions again. Plus I love that Curran just lets Kate take care of herself. Read up to 29%...

Voyager by Diana Gabaldon

[Leea, Escape Artist]

Enjoy Voyager Anita!

Regina, what did you think of Sex Love Repeat?

I understand getting hooked. I was soooo glad when I finally picked up the Elementals series. Just as great as everyone had said. The wait for the next book is killing me ...

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

Yay! I love the Elementals series.

Tellulah, the next book of Elementals is up on Netgalley. I just found out from Anna and went and grabbed it.

[Regina]

Yay for Voyager!! :D

I finished and

Leea I enjoyed Sex. Love Repeat. I liked the first 3/4 but felt the ending was not satisfying. But the first 3/4 is worth the read. I am thinking 3.5 stars.

[Regina]

I am now reading

Thank you!! I just requested it. Fingers crossed!

I agree! We basically felt the same thing about this book. I decided on 3.5 Stars too. I was going to round it up but after writing my review, I decided to round it down. The last part of the book was just disappointing.

[Regina]

It really was! But I'd say the first part makes it worth it to try, but it isn't the 5 star book others are rating it at (for me anyway). I think it is surprising given the two men and that they are aware of that the heroine has another guy in her life. The setting is kind of fun too. I don't read many books set in LA -- downtown Hollywood and Venice Beach.

[Regina]

So I am suddenly sad -- I realized that I am reading the end of Molly Harper's back list. Once I finish the Nice Girls series (I am on #3), I won't have any of her books to read until she publishes something new!

I read the first Elemental not that long ago, too, Jen. I loved it! I can't wait to read the rest.

For those of you who ARE caught up (or not) it looks like the next one is up on Netgalley.

Ohhh off to grab it... Thanks for the heads us :)

[Regina]

I keep needing to start this series. For some reason I can never get to it.

Oh I hate that!! We'll have to find you a new fun series :)

[Regina]

I always feel like -- no! there won't be another series I like! But there always is .......

[Regina]

Speaking of which - wow! Audible.com members and Molly Harper fans, today audible is offering a molly harper short story for free:

A friend of mine said this series is fun and comparable to Molly Harper:

[Leea, Escape Artist]

Wow! It's you're lucky day!!!

[Brandi]

[Tellulah]

Yay - Now in my hot little hands. Which makes my hands sound creepy and deformed.

[Ian]

I just started Santa Olivia by Jacqueline Carey and The Spider by Jennifer Estep. Santa Olivia is quite artful but a bit of a struggle at the moment (I'm only at chapter 3). The Spider is pretty good fun at the moment.

[Regina]

I have been wanting to read Santa Olivia for years. The author is a talented writer, but it took me several tries to get into another book by her but once I did, I loved it.

Ian you scared me. I thought it was the 6th already.

I always fall behind everyone else, so I decided to cheat and sneak a head start.

[Crystal]

I still need to read but I picked up on Netgalley yesterday anyway!

Oh, my Hunter aversion. You have to go away so I can catch up!

Is The Spider YA? Estep wrote Mythos Academy, correct?

[Jenny]

Kensington hates me and told me no for Secret. :( I still have to read 2 & 3 anyway, though.

[Gwennie, Mrs. Bookworm]

We're on the same team then.

Me too :) Makes up both creepy and deformed - join the club!

[Leea, Escape Artist]

Finished - Holy crap this baby was good!!! Full range of emotions while reading this book. Plus I got to read it with Wendy - fun times!!

Next up,

I may be pokey for this BR, friends. Our big move is this Friday. Exhaustion may force my eyelids to shut.

So, you're not liking it much, Ian? *bites nails*

I've gotta get a move-on of
. It releases soon! Let it be better than book #2 (2 stars). *bites nails*

[Leea, Escape Artist]

Anna, I still need to read the second book book... You do have me worried with your 2 stars. Maybe after Attachments.

[Ian]

I never really know...I don't think so. I would say it's Urban Fantasy.

It's come good. I'm loving it! I don't think it's a slow start so much as a slow build.

[Ian]

Jenny wrote: "Kensington hates me and told me no for Secret. :( I still have to read 2 & 3 anyway, though."

With me it's Grand Central Publishing. They don't trust us scary foreigners.

[Anna (Bobs Her Hair)]

What a relief, Ian! There's always that moment of BR dread when a buddy is not liking the book. What did I commit to reading? No worries! I'm cool now. ;)

@Leea...Eh. Just because it didn't work for me doesn't mean you'll feel the same. The humor is present. The characters, imo, we're not up to book 1's par. There are many readers who loved it as much as 1. You'll have to read it and share your thoughts. ;)

[Regina]

Leea it isn't as good as the first but still funny. My favorite series by far by her is the one I am reading now. It is fabulous.

Magic Rises was so good! I love the Kate Daniels books! I was all nervous that after (view spoiler)[Curran and Kate got together it may start to lose some of the tension (hide spoiler)], but nope! It was great!

Now, I can't wait to read Attachments. The last Rainbow Rowell book out, until . (Even more exciting is that Rainbow Rowell is dropping hints that she's doing a Eleanor & Park sequel and I can't waiiiiit!)

[Leea, Escape Artist]

I know... She better write and E & P sequel with all the twitter hints she's been dropping.

[Kay]

I would love more E&P...at the end of that book, it just left me wanting more.

I'm still working my way through . It took me a long time to really get into it. I'm thinking it's the writing style that I had to get use to and also the world building. But it has really picked up for me at the 80% mark. I hope to finish it today.

[Leea, Escape Artist]

That was exactly how Smoke and Bone was for me too, Kay. The second half I couldn't put it down.

I didn't realize she also wrote Karma Girl. Are you enjoying the series? Anyone else read it? Liked it? I want a new UF series to read.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

I've been meaning to read Elemental Assassin for a while but something keeps getting in the way. I'm pretty sure it's adult UF.

Weird. I loved DoSaB from page 1, but I adored the heavy fantasy vibe. I could see where it might be more difficult to get into if it's not someone's usual/preferred genre.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

I feel like I haven't been reading much at all lately. I've been reading on the same book for days, even though I'm liking it.

Same with me. It took me many days to finish the last book I read when it would usually take me 1-2 days/book.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

It's probably the season or something. I am going to try to get a good chunk of reading done today; see if I can restart the mojo.

Finally finished and it was cute.

Started and am about 12% into .

Santa Olivia is really good so far. I'm surprised at how dark it's been (featuring some sort of a disease-infested apocalyptic society), but I like that it took me by surprise.
