Lesley (whimsey2) | 113 comments I am in the midst of a huge reading binge (yay summer holidays ) I have just finished all 10 of the munro family series by Chris Taylor Chris Taylor an Australian author of romantic suspense. Then I read the deadly trilogy & the profiler series by Alexa Grace Alexa Grace and now I am finishing off the last few books on the mindhunters series by Kylie Brant Kylie Brant they are all romantic suspense some lean more to romance and others more to suspense. They are all good and will read more of the different series as they come out.

Vera M. | 446 comments Been a long time since Ive been in here, I'll just post about what I've read so far in december.
Finished:
Skin Game (The Dresden Files, #15) by Jim Butcher - So caught up on the Dresden Files so far. I feel like they are just okay again. It's probably still in a "setup" stage. Every time Butcher is in these "setup" books it's okay, but then there is the one where a ton of stuff comes together and it's a great book. I do like the unexpected twists and turns here and there, and even if I can figure out the twist it's interesting to try.
The Aeronaut's Windlass (The Cinder Spires, #1) by Jim Butcher - Liked the start of this fantasy steampunk series. A lot of fantasy starts are very slow and tedious to slog through. This one had enough action between the world and character build to keep it interesting. It does a skip between a few different point of views, but separates that between chapters and easy to know who's PoV you look through.
Furiously Happy A Funny Book About Horrible Things by Jenny Lawson - She is so very random and funny. This is not a book with a real plot. Each chapter is just a thought, conversation or story she has experienced.
Fantasy Lover by Sherrilyn Kenyon - A bit cheesy, typical PNR.
Down the Rabbit Hole (In Death, #41.5) by J.D. Robb - Wonderment in Death and Fallen were my favorite short stories in this one.
The Last Victim (Dr. Charlotte Stone, #1) by Karen Robards - I felt like it was two different books mashed into one. The parts of the book that were good were very good, the parts that werent were distracting and dropped my rating of this book by a lot.
The Cinderella Princess (Royal Holiday, #1) by Melissa McClone - cute, little story.
All I Want (Animal Magnetism, #7) by Jill Shalvis - Still love this author. Books are very, very predictable, but still very enjoyable to read.

Vera - Couldn't agree more on Jill Shalvis. Even as a guy, when I want a "feel good", generally funny read, she is great. Currently working thru the Lucky Harbor trilogies.

message 1913: by Jadzia (new)

Jadzia | 26 comments Even though I am a big J.D. Robb fan I never read her Nora Roberts books.
I just finished the Circle Trilogy and loved it. I am going back and reading her trilogies after reading the Hollows one as well. For some reason I just never thought I would read what people call romance novels. These are nothing like those bodice ripping covers I always associated with the genre.

It was after reading this series that I began reading romance because I chose to start reading Nora's books. Who knew they could be so well written?

Penni | 816 comments I've still never read a Nora book. The Circle Trilogy sounds intriguing though.

Giulia | 105 comments I've read some. Her style is interesting in that it varies, or least I've found that.

Ahh Penni...I see my job is not done! :) Nora's books do vary quite a bit from just simple, yet good solid romance to romance/suspense (many of these are standalones) to pnr type romance. I love most all of them.

I like some of them. But they pale in comparison to the In Death series. I've yet to find another male lead like Roarke.

Maggie | 1576 comments Reading Are You in the House Alone? by Richard Peck;It's the last book I need to read for one of my 2015 reading challenges. The category is a book you were supposed to read in high school, I didnt read ir because the movie scared me much. The book is just as creepy as I thought it would be when I was in high school.

Just curious, Paula - Did you read the other books in this series ..."


Sandra, I am a little confused about where Corrado's story falls in the grand scheme of things and that is because I only read Sempre, and not Sempre Redemption. I don't remember him vividly in Sempre. I read Monster in his Eyes and its sequel and loved them. J.M.'s books are long and detailed so one has to devote time to reading them I imagine. I know that you have a lot on your plate right now reading wise but when you do get around to these, Please let me know what you think.

I got buried by Christmas and family! I hosted this year and while all went well, I had little GR update time.

I finished Controlled Burn by Shannon Stacey, Boston Fire #2, and loved it! I'm enjoying this series much more than Boys of Fall. 4 stars

I finished listening to The Gamble by Kristen Ashley, Colorado Mountain #1, and loved it! 4.5 stars and review to come.

I also finished listening to Nowhere Ranch by Heidi Cullinan, a m/m romance that was too sexually explicit for my tastes. It had a great story that was overwhelmed by the steam. Here's my review.

I started Cold Fear by Toni Anderson, Cold Pursuit #4, almost a week ago and am only halfway because I had no real reading time. I'm loving it, though!

I'm now listening to Career of Evil of Robert Galbraith, Cormoran Strike #3.

Sheri Morell (smorell22) | 2165 comments just finished reading Slow Burn by Julie Garwood and really enjoyed this one. I have loved all the brothers so far but Nick and Dylan are my favorites.

I am still working on Deep Freeze by Lisa Jackson and should be able to finish by the end of the weekend.

Robin (robinmy) | 1389 comments I finished one last book in 2015: Shameless (The House of Rohan, #4) by Anne Stuart by Anne Stuart. My favorite in the House of Rohan series.

message 1935: by Lynne (new)

Lynne | 429 comments I started Pretty Girls by Karin Slaughter, but have not had much reading time over the holidays - I won't be able to finish. Ebook expires tomorrow and I'm only 27% done. I'll have to find other resources! Probably the hardback copy from library. It's really good though.


message 1936: by [deleted user] (new)

I'm reading the ARC of Abruption, by Riley Mackensie...two of my favorite authors. I'm loving every word, every scene. Next up is The Score by Elle Kennedy and The Shadow by Sykvain Reynard. I'm starting 2016 in reader's heaven, on Cloud 9.


message 1937: by [deleted user] (new)

My last book of 2015 was Mastered, by Maya Banks. I liked it but it's not for everyone. I'm a new reader to Maya's work, but her storylines are unique and very suspenseful.


message 1938: by Maggie (new)

Maggie | 1576 comments I'm reading The Chronicles of Katrina by Karen Tabke; it's a very good read.
