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.

Nope, haven't even started it - well, the prologue. It's one I am supposed to do in Kindle this month as the library didn't have it in audio like all the others. However, I've had little time for reading hardcopy. Only a few minutes here, a few minutes there. I don't like to read BDB that way. I don't WANT to read BDB that way. I want to be able to read it in good sized chunks. It took me almost a week to read all 120 pages or so of Reignite, and I did finish up Rule after about 4 days. I was hoping to get some reading done this weekend. - Lover and now Touch of Frost. My life isn't working out that way :-)

I'm currently listening to [bookcover:Possession in Death|8630481] and just finished listening to Cress (The Lunar Chronicles, #3) by Marissa Meyer (whih was really, really good) while I'm doing laundry, picking up the house, and driving the teenager around (since we're sharing a car).

My mom is coming back down from Payson (1/2 way point to her place - she's been staying with my sister while her car was getting fised). Sent dad up home and now will come down here to help watch Delaney as I don't think she should probably go to camp even tomorrow. And even though she is getting better, every time she gets in the car her headache comes back.

Sometimes, RL just gets in the way. Glad your Mom can come back to help.

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.

Leaving Time by Jodi Picoult not an original concept, but Picoult does it well. Quite a bit about elephants here.
Broken Promise A Thriller by Linwood Barclay my first Barclay book. Won it In a goodreads giveaway. Didn't completely suck me in, but kept me reading.

Now back to Lucky harbor!

Courtney (sekay88) Finished Skinwalker, Jane Yellowrock #1 by Faith Hunter. An absolute add to my series reading list. Loved the internal first person POV "discussions" between Jane and Beast/Panther.

Continuing my "reread" (via audiobook) of the ID series. Finished Portrait in Death. Forgot what a seminal book that was.

Courtney, I loved Skinwalker/Jane Yellowrock also. And getting a view from both Jane & Beast is always entertaining.

Sheri Morell (smorell22) | 2165 comments I am a little irritated with myself. Been reading the Faces of Evil series by Debra Webb. I finished book 7 Vicious and then just finished Vile. only then did i figure out that there was a novella between 7 and 8. Uggghhh so now going back to read 7.5 and then will start on #9 Heinous.

I finished reading Sweet Revenge by Christy Reece, Last Chance Rescue #8, and, while I enjoyed the story, it is probably the weakest in the series. It has some really good moments but too much repetition of the hero waffling about his feelings. And, I needed more from the ending. 3.5 stars and review to come.

I also finished listening to Captivated by You by Sylvia Day and think I understand why this extra book was considered necessary by the author. While nothing really spectacular happens, it does focus on Eva and Gideon's relationship development and it's well done. 4 stars and review to come.

I'm now reading A New Hope by Robyn Carr, Thunder Point #8 as I need a break from suspense for a moment. I'm also listening to Suddenly One Summer by Julie James. Though the author doesn't officially include this in her FBI/US Attorney series because the lead characters aren't agents or attorneys, they're of that series world.

Vera M. | 446 comments After finishing the next 3 Lucky Harbor....
It Had to Be You (Lucky Harbor, #7) by Jill Shalvis Always On My Mind (Lucky Harbor, #8) by Jill Shalvis Once in a Lifetime (Lucky Harbor #9) by Jill Shalvis

Went on to read:
The Ship of Brides by Jojo Moyes Maybe I just like suspense and steamy romance too much, but I find Moyes boring. Interesting subjects, great beginning, great end, its just the middle always lacks for me.

Runner (Sam Dryden, #1) by Patrick Lee Not my usual in the suspense, thriller genre to read, but was good. Action packed and developed enough character and plot to verge on the believable.


message 1040: by Jonetta (new)

Jonetta (ejaygirl) | 15053 comments Mod
Moyes is contemporary fiction, which often has the slow middle. Her stories may sometimes have romance and/or mystery but they're minor elements.

I finished A New Hope by Robyn Carr, Thunder Point #8 and enjoyed it a lot! The hero is quite unconventional, full of passion and exuberance. It's a real feel-good story, too.

I also finished listening to Suddenly One Summer by Julie James, narrated by Karen White. I loved the story and couldn't put it down. It really is part of the FBI/US Attorney series as several characters appear in the book. I think James is blundering by positioning it otherwise. For those following the series, consider it #6.

I'm now reading Unforgiven by B. J. Daniels, Beartooth Montana #1, and listening to Breaking Silence by Linda Castillo, Kate Burkholder #3.

Sheri Morell (smorell22) | 2165 comments I am currently listening to Sworn to Silence (Kate Burkholder, #1) by Linda Castillo , A little different then what I am used to but I am enjoying it. Also reading A Dirty Shame (J.J. Graves Mystery, #2) by Liliana Hart and Last to Die (Rizzoli & Isles, #10) by Tess Gerritsen

I want to continue the J.J. Graves series also, Sheri. Not sure if I can get to book 2 this month or not. I definitely want to read Sworn to Silence - I'm intrigued.


message 1046: by Sheri (new)

Sheri Morell (smorell22) | 2165 comments Sworn to Silence is really good. much better then I was expecting. J.J Graves series is an interesting read. the writing is different then what I am use to but is a very easy and fast read.


message 1047: by Sandra (new)

Sandra Hoover (sandrahoover) | 11211 comments Mod
I thought the same about book 1 of JJ Graves. I liked the humor but wasn't as thrilled about the handling of the suspense. But I thought I'd read book 2 to see if I want to read the entire series or not.


message 1048: by Sheri (new)

Sheri Morell (smorell22) | 2165 comments I was the same way with book 1 I have enjoyed the humor though

Sheri Morell (smorell22) | 2165 comments Finished Last To Die and as always loved it. I love Jane and Maura. will read the last one as soon as I get my hands on it.

Sheri Morell (smorell22) | 2165 comments Just finished reading A Dirty Shame. This one is a little better then the first and will be continuing the series. After the way this one ended I wouldn't be able to help myself.
