I wouldn't call them "horror". They are based around a haunted house for each storyline, but the house actually takes a backseat to the love story. Not scary at all, but enough to make it interesting and different.

I have, and I loved it. It is not a traditional romance.

Not that I don't like horror Bridget I really enjoy it but I was thrown off by it being a couples story a little. I just need to read them :)

Yup Donna, I'm addicted to The Kowalski's & The Reed Brothers! Only have one more Kowalski book left and then I'll be anxiously awaiting the releases just like I'm doing with the Reeds. Next month can't get here fast enough so I can read Sam's book EEEKKKPPP!!! And i finished and LOVED LOVED (of course LOL!) Desert Bound!

I have this since it came out Bridget and it's in my Next reading shelf so I'm hoping to get to it sooner rather than later. And yes it looks really good and by the reviews and ratings readers are definitely loving so I'm really looking forward to it.

Oh Tracy, yes you need to get back to The Elemental Series because it's really good and you'll become addicted to the story and characters. It's Elizabeth Hunter so you know the writing is fantastic!

I'm going to give One Wish Away by Kelley Lynn until 50% and if doesn't grab me I'm DNF'ing and telling tour host. I don't have time to waste!


message 11710: by Belkis (new)

Belkis (bminaya) | 8313 comments So I finished Desert Bound (Cambio Springs Book #2) by Elizabeth Hunter yesterday and LOVED IT! Next up for me will be one of these Time's Edge (The Chronos Files, #2) by Rysa Walker Echoes of Scotland Street (On Dublin Street, #5) by Samantha Young Running Barefoot by Amy Harmon Fireborn (Souls of Fire, #1) by Keri Arthur so we'll see which one I jump into first since they're all good ones :)

That's more than fair Brooke. Goodness if a book hasn't grabbed my attention in some way by 33-35% - that's a freaking third! - then I'll move onto something else. Goodness knows we have piles and piles of books waiting to be read and for us to spend hours on one that's less than, is just NO!

Oh Tasha, I LOVED Throne Of Glass!! Such an awesome series. I hope you enjoy it too. I still need to read Fangirl.

You're welcome. It was such a great read. And if you haven't read the other authors I listed, you should give them a try as well. Especially Kasie West. I love her.

Oh, I just bought that (thx Mods!) I was hoping to start it soon too. It sounds so much different than her other stuff. I loved everything she's written though, so I'm sure it'll be amazing! Let me know...

I hear so many great things about Amy Harmon. I really wanted to read Making Faces during the challenge but it was more than I wanted to pay. Do you have a recommendation for my first AH book? I recently came into a $15 amazon gc, *wink wink*, so if you say I oughta read Making Faces I'll buy it!

DNFing One Wish Away by Kelley Lynn . Way too many plot holes for me to be ok with it. Writing isn't bad, though.

Thanks Sara! I had been looking at Infinity + 1 too. That and Making Faces...I know there's one more but I can't remember the name, were the 3 that caught my attention.

OMG Heather, Amy Harmon is amazing and I've honestly LOVED everything I've read of hers so you cannot go wrong. I absolutely LOVED Making Faces and would definitely recommend reading it. Plus it's our BOTM so win-win. Also Infinity + One was amazing!

Probably A Different Blue, which is also wonderful Heather.

Amanda (mandy) | 1311 comments Finished Angelfall (Penryn & the End of Days, #1) by Susan Ee World After (Penryn & the End of Days, #2) by Susan Ee . I don't know I waited to read them. So freaking good!!


message 11743: by Kitlina (new)

Kitlina | 195 comments So I just finished reading Burn for Me (Hidden Legacy, #1) by Ilona Andrews . Twice.
This was so incredibly intense. I cannot have enough of Mad Radoc and Nevada. These are some of the best characters out there. And this book was just the tip of the iceberg. I want the second book RIGHT NOW. But I just have to pull my hair out till next year.
Waiting SUCKS!

Making Faces by Amy Harmon is my favourite out of all Amy Harmon books but I've not been dissapointed with any so far (the other two I've read are A Different Blue and Infinity + One)

Donna | 1350 comments Between work and life I've been super busy. Had no time to start a new book so when I do get a moment, I've been rereading some faves.

Amy (amyoftheyabookshelf) I am super excited to get started reading the November book club nominee, Shadow and Bone, but sadly I'm still on the waitlist at my library for this book! :(.. So in the mean time, I've started Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe. I'm only about half way through, but wholly frioles its great so far! I'm really looking forward to seeing how it ends!

Well I don't really know what you like but if you're looking for short you might like Happenstance (Happenstance, #1) by Jamie McGuire . It's a novella so it's on the shorter side but it's a cute story.
