That's what I thought too Lee, I gave
only 2 stars. Christine Warren's series is either hit or miss for me :)

saw it in our library and thought that looks interesting,
how wrong you can be glad I never bought it.
it was a well read copy too so I thought this looks promising.
About a third into the book showed signs of wear pages almost loose
and well fingered.Then suddenly it like reading a new unread book,
in pristine order and still tightly bound,the last quarter of the book
of the pages returned to being in a loose poorer state. I realise then
that most of the previous readers had got fed up so far along and skipped
to the last two or three chapters to see how it ended up.

LOL. I can just see that :DDD
I'm so behind with my reading this year! I hardly get to sit down with a book between work and study...I did manage to finish

Good to see you Kerstin, we've missed you :)Reading
That's nice to hear, Sandra :) I've missed you guys too. It'll still be hectic until the end of the year but I'll try to squeeze some more Goodreads time in.
Excellent, but don't neglect the important stuff that brings in money to buy more books. LOL.

I listened to Lothaire. I listen to 75% of my books, and IAD is an automatic audiobook. Robert P rocks!

So many people rave about this series on this site its a favourite to all who
have listened to them.
I believe the Black Dagger Brotherhood series is really good too, not listened to
any of them.

I read BDB (like 6x over) before I listened to the audiobook. If I had started on the audiobook, I probably wouldn't have continued.
The BDB narrator Jim Fraggione was all wrong and he had no passion and he just ruined it for me.
Same thing with Night Huntress narrator, Tavia Gilbert. She had an awful Bones sound, and she was wrong for that series. interesting enough, I liked her as Vlad in the Night Prince series on audio, but not for Bones & Cat.
If the narrator is bad it spoils the whole thingthe House of Night series by P C Cast & Kirstin Cast
is awful, the short stories were OK,but the woman
reading the books was so dramatic and over the top
I had to stop listening, she was just ridiculous .

"Oh my goodness, the Bones voice was...odd? Not my cup of tea at all! I'm curious about her Vlad voice now, maybe I'll give the Night Prince audios a try someday.
Finally getting back into CLV series, read House Rules and Biting Bad over the weekend. I'm tired of the GP/house drama but the books seem to be on an upward trend again so optimistic about the series going forward :)

from this series from our library to read again. Its all rain, rain and
more rain here so indoors a lot lately. Just looking back on my ratings
for this series I had Drink Deep at 2 stars and Biting Bad 2 stars.
But Wild Things 4 stars, so its back on track looking forward to the
new one, Blood Games.
I was in the mood for something different last week
it was really good.

Both excellent books really enjoyed them again I had
forgotten how at times they were really funny, wish
I could say the same for the latest in this series
Blood Games, this writer has lost something along the way.
Also I notice that the cost of these newer books they
are charging more for them in relation to other
paperbacks that are new out.
Yes, some publishers seem to have jacked up their prices considerably :(
finished readingThe Seventh Miss Hatfield - Anna Caltabiano
Wow what a budget this book cover had, its
covered in navy blue cloth with extensive silver
embossing back and front, really eye catching,
love the design, five stars all round
for this amazing cover, however only three stars
content, what a shame.Still it was an ok read

I'm trying to keep to one book at a time...and reading
...long, but gotta keep ahead of the filmed series. Having trouble getting into it. Possibly because I've been spending more of time on the electronic device trying to figure out how I can see Outlander, rather than reading. (Head stuffed with new techno-babble...time to head back to France and Jamie & Claire...)
I've started reading
because I like the Tv series.
Is it a "should see" or "have to see" for you, Val?
Good question. It's not my type of Tv series I normally follow. I'm more a Game of Throne type but I must say that Outlander is really well done and so far is pretty close to the book. The Tv series is not révolutionary, seems to be historically correct too. I will not miss any épisodes. Depends on your taste, for me it's a should see I guess.
