Mine too, Quynh, and this one is on my list. I wish I could work it in now but I have a full list already in Dec.

I'm finishing
- just love it! and I'm starting the last WT book (until the next one releases) -
(including the novella Busted)


I finished Deadly Messengers by Susan May and liked it quite a bit. The author is exceptionally skilled in writing the tense scenes. Here's my review.
I also finished When the Tiger Kills by Vanessa Prelatte, Cimarron and Melbourne #1. It was unexpectedly very good with well written procedurals (ignore the cover and strange title). Here's my review.
I'm now reading Anything for You by Kristan Higgins, Blue Heron #5.

Love this series.
I finished Anything for You by Kristan Higgins, Blue Heron #5, and absolutely loved it. Not an easy story, though. Here's my review.
I also finished listening to The Silkworm by Robert Galbraith, Cormoran Strike #2, and hated for it to end. Here's my review.
I'm now reading Welcome to Forever by Annie Rains, Hero's Welcome #1, and listening to Fallen by Karin Slaughter, Will Trent #4 (already hooked).

I finished
which catches me up in the series. This book & series just blew me away. Unseen is an amazing book - maybe the best of the series although every single one of these books are awesome. It's one series that I'm sad about being caught up in because now I have to wait for the next book - sometime next July. :(

My Review




Great review! I love that series and I have to get back to it.
I found with each book that I once I started, I couldn't put them down! Insanely intense & heart-wrenching.

Yikes! It was going to be my next Brown book - maybe I'll look at some of the others.

I recently read that Quynh and I am curious to know what you think overall about the book. And I felt the same way you do and then some.

Magic Shifts, by Ilona Andrews (Kate Daniels #8). Great as always, and definitely setting us up for the final two books in the series (at least I'm fairly certain that that is what the authors wrote somewhere, saying they want to give Kate & Curran their HEA).
Dark Heir, by Faith Hunter (Jane Yellowrock #9). Jane just gets better and better, pretty much ranking right behind Kate Daniels in the kick-a$$ category. Terrific, complex story that keeps the blood pumping.
Boundary Crossed, by Melissa F. Olson (Boundary Magic #1). Great find in a new series. Exciting new character in boundary witch Lex. Looks like an excellent supporting cast.
Spider's Bite, by Jennifer Estep (Elemental Assassin #1). I had seen many people add Gin Blanco to the various kick-a$$ heroine lists, so decided to give the series a try. SOLD after book one. Will definitely continue.
The Good, the Bad, and the Undead,by Kim Harrison (The Hollows #2). Gave up on this one half way through a few months ago, but the series is so popular, decided to pick it back up. Glad I did. Second half of book was outstanding. Will definitely continue with Rachel Morgan's story.

Courtney - I love urban fantasy! My favorite is the Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs. (Especially since it's set in my hometown Kennewick!)

Hi Paula, I will let you know once I'm done. But so far I find the hero too arrogant with a short fuse. I have no connection to the heroine, in fact, I feel like I barely know her. Lack of emotional connection for me with the story of the book is what's causing me to struggle to finish. I hate dnf'ing a book so going to try and finish.

After book 3, I agree with you Sheri! I love this series too. It's easy to read and yet still intriguing with a good case each book and a H/h that I just love to read about.

I finished Welcome to Forever by Annie Rains, Hero's Welcome #1, and liked it. Here's my review.

I finished listening to Fallen by Karin Slaughter, Will Trent #5 (narrated by Shannon Cochran), and loved it! Here's my review.
Since I'm so hooked on the series, I jumped right into the next book, Snatched, a novella narrated by Kathleen Early, and really enjoyed it, too. Here's my review.
I'm now listening to the final book in The Hunger Games Trilogy, Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins.
