Gisela (chicadorlando) | 4022 comments I planned to start Shadowdance (Darkest London, #4) by Kristen Callihan for the January challenge but fictfact told me I hadn't read Ember (Darkest London, #0.5) by Kristen Callihan . So I read that and after finishing I had to reread Firelight (Darkest London, #1) by Kristen Callihan . I'd forgotten how enjoyable this series is. I love a smart kickass heroine who saves the day! I even created a new shelf: Dudes in Distress. :D Moonglow (Darkest London, #2) by Kristen Callihan and Winterblaze (Darkest London, #3) by Kristen Callihan are next.

Carly - Resident Supergirl | 275 comments Finished One Kick (Kick Lannigan, #1) by Chelsea Cain at beginning of year, not so much romance but a really good thriller that I am saddened to hear the author isn't going to continue with after not getting onto a best seller list?? and I am finishing this one... On Dublin Street (On Dublin Street, #1) by Samantha Young TONIGHT, enjoyed it SO much the main male protagonist is amazing and the fact it takes place in Scotland just reels me in even more! Starting Seduction and Snacks (Chocolate Lovers, #1) by Tara Sivec tomorrow!

Now I'm getting into An Unlikely Countess (Malloren #11) by Jo Beverley

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 20787 comments Just finished Sisters in Law How Sandra Day O'Connor and Ruth Bader Ginsburg Went to the Supreme Court and Changed the World by Linda Hirshman (out of my comfort zone). Interesting, since I've lived through most of these events and remember the news stories.

Just started listening to Take Me, Cowboy (Copper Ridge Desire #1) by Maisey Yates and really enjoying it. Also reading the hardback of The Paid Companion by Amanda Quick .

I found a lot of hardbacks in the second-hand stores when I was in Florida visiting my aunt. She loves second-hand stores. (Wouldn't you know it? As luggage space was limited on the return home.) Still, great deals and books in great condition. Had my aunt laughing, when I'd come around the corner with a big stack of books. Or we'd go to another store and she'd say, "I know where to find you." LOL!

Robin (robinmy) Today I finished Hour Game (Sean King & Michelle Maxwell, #2) by David Baldacci Hour Game by David Baldacci. Overall I liked the book but thought it could have been a bit shorter.

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 20787 comments I'm reading Tapping the Billionaire (Billionaire Bad Boys, #1) by Max Monroe on my Kindle, when I should be reading Moonshadow (Moonshadow, #1) by Thea Harrison for Bookshelf Bingo.

Almost finished with Dukes Prefer Blondes (The Dressmakers, #4) by Loretta Chase on audio... and will then start Phantom Evil (Krewe of Hunters, #1) by Heather Graham .

For hardcover, I'm taking my time reading the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them The Original Screenplay by J.K. Rowling , but hope to see it soon, before I go with family to see it on the Big Screen.

I listen to my audiobooks during my way to work either it's walking/running or train and bus. When it gets to the hot and sexy parts, I take the headphones out of my ear to make sure it's not on speaker and listen on.And yes some blushing and giggling very quietly follows :D
