Read
and I've moved onto
.
Erica, I loved
and you can't go wrong with Cat & Bones :)
Sandra I love Cat and Bones and since I took the 2 year hiatus I haven't read any in awhile. But I also have heard alot of good things about the Dark Lover and that series that's why it's so hard for me to decide. haha.

I did enjoy the Brotherhood, while I do enjoy Cat and Bones I though One Grave at a Time was just ok. But then again you are in between books so do you want to start a new series?
Somehow I do not think I am all that helpful lol.
I have been reading crap recently. I am working my way through
I skipped one short story because it was lame and this one I am reading now is overly complicated I see me ditching it unless this chapter makes it really good.
I've got that one hanging around :)
Just finished reading
. I took a really long break between Strider and Paris's books (5 years) probably because I was worried Paris and Sienna's book wouldn't live up to expectations. Overall, I enjoyed it but felt it was too long and repetitive in some places with Paris and Sienna's angst. I do like how the overall story arc developed though.
I'll continue with Kane's book even though the reviews have been ho-hum. I'm on the fence now about beginning the spin-off series though. Has anyone read it?
I've only read to #4 though I've bought them up to #11. Haven't even thought of the spin off yet. And mine's a 6 yr break. LOL

It's weird because I do enjoy Showalter's writing style (at least before she became more religious). I actually read and enjoyed her Alien Huntress series during the 5 year break.
really good point Dawn. I'm thinking I might read one grave at a time. I've been missing Cat and Bones.
I may have had issues with books 6 & 7 but damn, did it wrap up well.
@Sandra LOL I am in the same camp. I think I own up to book 11 but I am only on book 8@Lauren I forgot about Alien Huntress maybe my library will have them! I also agree I think there are a lot of ways to write romance but it feels like she wanted to keep the same formula which to me did not work. Shame because she was an auto buy author for me for a long time.
Deborah wrote: " I may have had issues with books 6 & 7 but damn, did it wrap up well."I found myself really bored when reading this one.
I stopped reading the Fever Series after book 5. Don't know that I could get back into it to finish series

Sorry to hear it.
I am currently reading the ARC for
. Next in my ever-increasing pile will be
Finished
now reading
its been awhile since I have just gotten back into reading I forgot just how awesome Cat and Bones are. ❤
Does anyone know Carrick's last name in trial by fire by Josephine Angelini?

I am in a reading rut. Last week I started 10 books and barely made it past chapter 2 in any of them. Think I will take a break from books this week and watch reruns of MidSummer Murders
Dawn wrote: "I am in a reading rut. Last week I started 10 books and barely made it past chapter 2 in any of them. Think I will take a break from books this week and watch reruns of MidSummer Murders"I hate it when that happens. What about trying an old favorite? That usually will help me.
Finally reading
. There is so much going on in the first few chapters it is hard to keep track.
I'm halfway through
- I took quite a long break in the series after Lothaire's book (I guess I got burned out on Cole's writing), but now I'm remembering why I enjoy her stories and characters so much.
Anne wrote: "Finally reading . There is so much going on in the first few chapters it is hard to keep track."Yeah. I felt like there was a lot of set up at first but then, for me, it really hit its stride.
Deborah wrote: "Anne wrote: "Finally reading . There is so much going on in the first few chapters it is hard to keep track."Yeah. I felt like there was a lot of set up at first but..."
It is starting to do that now - cannot believe this is the last book.
Darcy wrote: "...I hate it when that happens. What about trying an old favorite? That usually will help me."Me too!
I got a bunch of library books half of which I disliked. So I am still watching MidSummer Murders which is quite enjoyable! and HGTV...I did manage to finish Clean Sweep
I think I am going to try non-fiction.
I'm finishing
. All of a sudden I have so many books back up!!! Plus I'm a slow reader so that doesn't help! On my plate are:
plus a bunch of books in my "want to read"!!!
Debbie wrote: "I'm finishing . All of a sudden I have so many books back up!!! Plus I'm a slow reader so that doesn't help! On my plate are: [boo..."I have piles of books, boxes of books, thousands on all of my Kindles - it is a sickness (but a good one).
Anne wrote: "Debbie wrote: "I'm finishing . All of a sudden I have so many books back up!!! Plus I'm a slow reader so that doesn't help! On my plate are: [bookcover:Feversong..."Yes it is :)
finally came out in paperback & I loved it. Adam standing up to the pack on Mercy's behalf, kicking Troll butt, and sadly the stick going out in glory.
Sandra wrote: " finally came out in paperback & I loved it. Adam standing up to the pack on Mercy's behalf, kicking Troll butt, and sadly the stick going out in glory."I really like this series.
The library decided my next book for me. I just picked up Burn Baby Burn I feel like I'm cheating on Gin since last night I finished Elemental Assassin #4, and today I'm not reading #5.
I've just started My Familiar Stranger by Victoria Danann -
- not read anything from this author before and so far it's really good.
Catherine wrote: "I've just started My Familiar Stranger by Victoria Danann - - not read anything from this author before and so far it's really good."Love Victoria's books and al of her different series.
Lauren wrote: "
- a definite must for anyone who enjoyed Deborah Harkness's All Souls trilogy. My GR Review"
I think I remember that one. The author writes with a lot of imagery but it has a really slow pace I think. Still it was a good book.
Dawn wrote: "I think I remember that one. The author writes with a lot of imagery but it has a really slow pace I think. Still it was a good book."Yes, it had some slow parts but I listened on audio and Justine Eyre's narration was so good, I didn't really notice that much.
Anne wrote: "Sandra wrote: " finally came out in paperback & I loved it. Adam standing up to the pack on Mercy's behalf, kicking Troll butt, and sadly the stick going out in glo..."Love Mercy!
Me too Debbie :)
Anne wrote: "Sandra wrote: " finally came out in paperback & I loved it. Adam standing up to the pack on Mercy's behalf, kicking Troll butt, and sadly the stick going out in glo..."I was actually a bit sad that the stick died. :(
Finished
and of course liked it but it wasn't as action filled so i found it a tiny bit slow. Now I'm trying to read
but life keeps interfering so I'm only on chapter 2 so haven't quite gotten into it but i know i will when i get the chance to really sit down and read because I love Kim Harrison and The Hollows.
Sarah wrote: "The library decided my next book for me.

This weekend I finished
when I read this it was kind of funny at first because I was like oh the demons are bad lol was to much PNR. I liked this one, while I still had a few issues I am looking forward to getting my hands on the next one
this one also surprised me I thought it was going to be the usual light and fluffy but this one was kind of dark.
I'm reading
for some reason I'd never gotten to this series before.OOh, Dawn, a dark Argeneau book. I'll look forward to that, I'm only on about #10 or #11 I think.

Oh that was a good one! I am not sure how I fell off of that series.
As for Argeneau it was interesting to see the dark side of the no fangers. I bet she got a lot of slack for it
Finished reading
- sad the series is over.Reading ARC of
- great fun so far.
