Makes sense. That happens to me quite often. Thank goodness there's no shortage of books to read. :)

Barbara, what did you think of
Are the characters more fleshed out than the first book? Does it flow better?

Definitely got the creep factor going.
Read

Because of Sandra... I discovered
and
and really enjoyed the setup, there is a lot of potential for additional books and really wish these were longer.Also read
and
Yay Lis! How was Mystic Wolves series, I've read #1 & the Chrissie one (with stories with Jasmine in them - so sad).
Catching up after a series I had left aside a few years ago, glad I continued because I loved
(and the audiobook was nice to listen to).Onto
and I`ll be one more book away from catching with this one as well (until Bite me gets released that is).

I'm actually enjoying it... Reads more YA in the beginning books but more adult in the latest. It keeps taking sharp turns in the plot that end in pretty good cliff hangers. Luckily I had the next one on hand...
I finished
and I loved it. Screwed up characters and touchy subject and all.Not sure what to read next.

I have just started the Dark Hunter series Valerie. I am at Dance with the Devil and really enjoying these books. Do they stay interesting until the end? I hope so love it when that happens.

Like any series with +20 books, some are better than others but the ove all quality is there still after so many years. It's one of those PNR that I can say has a great story arc and a solid world building. I can't judge how close to the Greek mythology ( and other pantheons) is the story but there are no glaringly obvious mistakes and I really like the author to be consistent.
As the series goes on, it gets less cheesy too. Yes, you should continue reading.
Sad to say I could not get into the book that my fella picked for me however,he picked me a second one and this is much better, half way through so far all goodBitten - Kelley Armstrong

Read
all at once, first book is free. It's an addictive series and a good read for anyone who likes fantasy, but not very heavy if that makes sense? Also I loved the romance, it's a slow builder and it enhances the storyline rather than overshadows it :)
Yay! Hope ya'll enjoy Kemmerer's Elemental series! :DGlad to hear you liked the first book in Green's Nightside series, Sandra. I need to get back to that series. I stopped around #8, but have the last 4 TBR.
I also want to start those series, Lis (and ditto on the Sandra rec). :)
I read
. This was the first book by Alexandra Ivy that I've read and I liked it. The H/h have already worked together several times and have an existing crush (putting it mildly) by the time the book starts, so we jump right in with them. I wouldn't mind a prequel to catch their meeting. I'll be continuing the series.
I remember when I read an Alexandra Ivy book when I wasn't feeling well, and it made me feel better, so I always have good vibes for her. Glad to see you enjoyed the book. IMO she's a good writer :)
Funny how certain books make you think of times in your life when you read it and bring back those good/bad feelings. I have several like that. Same for certain songs, yah? :)
Absolutely, comfort reads always have a special place in your heart.As to AI, I'm up to date in her Guardians of Eternity series and really enjoy them. I've got Born in Blood and I'm looking forward to it.
So true! Books and songs/albums can make me feel so strange because of the memories or feelings associated with them.That's good to hear Sandra, makes me want to get up to date with that series as I enjoyed #1. Hope Born in Blood is a good read :)

I finished
last night. I liked it, but I'd figured that I was going to. Will continue the series.Started
Read
, third and last book of the Unrestrained Series; it was just released last week. So good! Then I read
(a stand-alone as far as I know) from my TBR shelf. It was pretty good; I finished it but was a little underwhelmed. Time for some PNR so I've returned to the Scansguard Vampires series,
. Another book from my TBR shelf so why isn't that list getting any shorter?!
Valerie ~ Val Hall ~ wrote: "I've never read any of Alexandra Ivy's books, maybe I should try one."I've read
&
and will read
this week.It's nothing to write home about. but i enjoyed it more than the Dark Carpathians by C.Feehan
Mello, hubby and I started the audio of Alex Verus, but haven't finished it. What we listened to so far (~ 60%) was good.Read a prequel:
and liked it enough to grab #1:
.Reading:
Does anyone know for certain if #10 of the Chicagoland Vampires is the last book? I would check the thread but I don't want to see spoilers.
