Book 8 comes out this month, so I'm going to try to get caught up within the next few months. I like to space these out though, they're like my reward for staying on track with my plan, haha.

Book #7 is up next for me as well. I love this series!

[Monica]

I finished book #5 Lord of Darkness and am now moving right on to #6 Duke of Midnight, both by Elizabeth Hoyt from her Maiden Lane series.

[Jonetta]

I finished The Stranger by Harlan Coben earlier and here's my review.

I also finished Scream for Me by Karen Rose, Romantic Suspense #8, another chilling installment in the series. It's one of the best to date. 5 stars and review to come.


I'm now reading Sweet Justice by Christy Reece, Last Chance Rescue #7.

[Melissa]

Reading The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner by Stephenie Meyer. Finally going to finish the Twilight series.

[Jonetta]

Here's my review of Scream for Me by Karen Rose.

[Monica]

I finished Duke of Midnight (book #6 Maiden Lane) by Elizabeth Hoyt and this is my absolute favorite of the series. Artemis is one of my top heroines now. She is exactly what I like in a character. Loved her. And Maximus! Oh, Maximus. Loved him, too. Their romance is one of the best I have read in a very, very long time. Besides that, the story itself was just so good. I'm moving right on to book book 7, Darling Beast

I agree 100%. Maximus and Artemis are my absolute favorite couple in this series.

[Robin]

I read Honest Illusions by Nora Roberts. This book sat on my shelf for years. I wish I had picked it up sooner.

Then I read Darling Beast by Elizabeth Hoyt. Another good addition to her Maiden Lane series.

[Jonetta]

I finished listening to Pray for Silence by Linda Castillo, Kate Burkholder #2, and am completely hooked on this series! Here's my review.

I'm now starting to listen to Snow Blind by P.J. Tracy, Monkeewrench #4.

[Erin]

I finished listening to Biting Bad and Wild Things which are books 9 and 10 in the Chicagoland series by Chloe Neill. I really liked the first a lot and I loved the second!! The ending of Wild Things is making it really hard not to jump right into the next book! I have already taken audio of It Had to Be You (7th book in the Lucky Harbor series by Jill Shalvis) out of the library though so I'm going to try to listen to it first!

Yay! You've caught up to me. Now we're waiting for Jonetta :0)

[Erin]

How did you stop after Wild Things? That ending! I can't wait to see what happens in the next one.

[Monica]

I finished Darling Beast (book 7 Maiden Lane) by Elizabeth Hoyt and really enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to the next book, which comes out on the 26th.

Now I'm reading Fall with Me (book 4 Wait for You) by J. Lynn.

[Monica]

Erin wrote: "I finished listening to Biting Bad and Wild Things which are books 9 and 10 in the Chicagoland series by Chloe Neill. I really liked the first a lot and I loved the ..."

I need to get back to this series apparently. I stopped at book 3, I think.

Erin wrote: "How did you stop after Wild Things? That ending! I can't wait to see what happens in the next one."

The next book hadn't been published yet. I had no choice, lol!

[Erin]

Aha! That makes sense!

[Kris (My Novelesque Life)]

I just finished by Karen Rose and am reading .

[Robin]

I read How to Seduce a Vampire (Without Really Trying) by Kerrelyn Sparks. This book moved very slowly for me. I ended up skimming some of it.

My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...


Yesterday I started Married By Morning by Lisa Kleypas. It's the fourth book in the Hathaway series, but my favorite overall.

Yep, J. Lynn is her NA pseudonym.

[D.G.]

I'm almost done with , good book and necessary in the series but I'm not a fan of Psy couples so I'm not feeling these two. The only Psy couple I'd like to see a novella would be Nikita Duncan and Anthony Kyriakus.

Anyhow, I just started and I started laughing right away. Emerson and Amelia are so freaking original...one of my favorite couples in fiction. They are just too funny together.

[Sunny]

I'm reading , the next book in Katie Reus' Dark Ops series.

This one was my favorite in the series as well :0)

Glad you're enjoying it D.G.
I started listening to the Rosenblat version but had to return it to Audible. I managed to get the Susan O'Malley version on eBay and am writing for it to arrive. Unfortunately, I've just learned that O'Malley only recorded versions for books 1-6 so it looks like I'll have to suck it up and read books 7-16 even though its 1st person narration :0(
Perhaps it will be easier because I already have O'Malley's voice in my head, lol!

[Jonetta]

It's been a bit since I posted!

I finished reading Sweet Justice by Christy Reece, Last Chance Rescue #7, and loved it! Here's my review.

I also finished reading Ember by Kristen Callihan, the Darkest London prequel, and it filled in a lot of spaces. I think a case can be made to read it first, too. Here's my review, as well as the review for Firelight.

I finished listening to Snow Blind by P.J. Tracy, Monkeewrench #4, and enjoyed it but like Melissa, had some mixed feelings. Here's my review.

I'm now listening to One to Protect by Tia Louise, One to Hold #3.

[Phrynne]

It's a great series, Phrynne. You're going to love it.

[Liz (Bugetta)]

I've been reading a lot of stand-alone novels lately (they do actually exist! Shocking, I know! :)). I did start listening to Frostbitten by Kelley Armstrong though. It's nice to be back with Elena and Clay! :)

There's something satisfying about reading a single title every once in awhile:)

[Liz (Bugetta)]

Jonetta wrote: "There's something satisfying about reading a single title every once in awhile:) "

So true, though there are a few I wish had a second book either to follow secondary characters or continue the romance. :) And I'm reading a lot of books I purchased over a year ago, so making a dent in my tbr (and then quickly filling it again with new book :-D). :)

[Jonetta]

And there's the rub, Liz. When they're really good, we want more...turning into a series. A happy medium would be to limit them to a trilogy:)

[D.G.]

Oh that's too bad, Lauren! Let's hope you're able to read the later books in the series. I'm enjoying this one a lot.

Personally, I enjoy standalones a lot and wish more authors would write them. Lots of people out there just gave one good idea for a book so they shouldn't try to turn everything in a series!

[Monica]

Jonetta wrote: "And there's the rub, Liz. When they're really good, we want more...turning into a series. A happy medium would be to limit them to a trilogy:)"

Trilogies would be perfect in most cases. Sometimes when I read a trilogy, I feel relief. But then when you find out the trilogy was stretched out for more, I get stressed out! And there have been instances when I have refused to acknowledge the "added" on books (Mortal Instruments, I'm looking at you).

And then there are the series that I want to last forever and ever (the ones that have a new couple or character per book), as long as the stories don't get stale or story lines recycled. Very few don't though unfortunately.

Then like D.G., it's so refreshing to read a completely satisfying standalone.

[Liz (Bugetta)]

Jonetta wrote: "And there's the rub, Liz. When they're really good, we want more...turning into a series. A happy medium would be to limit them to a trilogy:)"

Yeah, that would be easier to handle - there are all these series I'm interested in that have 8 or more books and it's overwhelming to even think of starting them. I know myself, though, and I'm sure if they were all just trilogies, I'd get to book three and wish there were more books. :-D

[Jonetta]

We can't be pleased can we?:)

I must admit, though, that I'm frustrated with those series that started out as only a trilogy and morphed into something longer. In most instances, it's been a bust.

For me it depends on if it follows one couple or if it's a new couple in each book.

Usually, unless it's a UF where the relationship is not the central story, I don't need five books (let alone three) to get to a satisfying HEA. In fact, some series I've dropped or been in no hurry to get back to, it's because I'm ready for a new couple to get their time in the spotlight (Guild Hunters comes to mind - though I'm not super fond of Raphael, so one book was enough for me and there are at least three where he and Elena are the central couple).

If there are secondary characters that are interesting to me and I like the world building (whether it's a small town or a Victorian steampunk world), I'll keep reading.

"

It can be difficult to continue with a series focusing on one couple if one or the other is unappealing. I love Raphael so I had no problem with the Guild Hunters but Nancy Gideon's Moonlight series is like that for me. The heroine can be very annoying. Nevertheless, the ongoing storyline is excellent and I really like the secondary characters. Thankfully, I'm up to the book that focuses on a different couple so I'm hopeful.

[Jonetta]

I think that's why I've dragged my feet getting to the second book in that series, Lauren.

[Jonetta]

I finished listening to One to Protect by Tia Louise, One to Hold #3, and enjoyed it the most of all the stories to date. The dual narrators were used for female and male POVs but weren't used within each other's POV (hope that makes sense). It was a little strange but I still enjoyed their performances, Christian Fox's more than Lucy Rivers. His was just a standout.

I started this series thinking it was a trilogy (the series list hadn't been updated) and now it's up to seven books. I'm just not that invested enough to continue but this book had a controversial ending....time will tell.

I'm getting ready to start a road trip today and will be listening to House Rules by Chloe Neill, Chicagoland Vampires #7.

[Phrynne]

I finished Drop Shot which is #2 in the Myron Bolitar series and I am going to go straight into #3 Fade Away

[Monica]

I finished Nowhere But Here (book 1 Thunder Road) by Katie McGarry and loved it. She writes some of the best YA out there.

[Charlene]

I've finally caught up to the point that I began to read #7 in the Last Chance Rescue Series, , so that I can join in the 2-3-4 Discussions.

[Jonetta]

Looking forward to your comments!

[Robin]

I finished All Shook Up by Susan Andersen. I haven't read one of her books in years. So glad I picked it up.

My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

[Monica]

I finished End of Days by Susan Ee. It's the third and final book in the Penryn and the End of Days series and it was a great ending to an amazing series. I was really nervous about Ee wrapping everything up in one book, but not only did she do it, but it worked!
