I certainly can. Sorry about that. For your bonus: Dark Witch (The Cousins O'Dwyer Trilogy, #1) by Nora Roberts


message 59: by VampAmber (new)

VampAmber | 622 comments Thanks for the great picks, I've been meaning to read Curators for a few months now (I got it from the library, but I keep ending up reading something else), and I'm definitely glad to be moving forward in the Bride Quartet (all of her books are so frigging addictive). I can't even remember how long ago I added One Of Us Is Lying to my tbr list, but when I reread the description, I remembered why I did. Can't wait to read 'em all, especially with all the clearance candy I'l be buying on the 15th. ^_^

For your two picks from your list, I went with Girl of Nightmares (Anna, #2) by Kendare Blake and Trigger by Susan Vaught , since they both sounded interesting. As for your bonus pick, I saw you hadn't read Storm Front (The Dresden Files, #1) by Jim Butcher yet, and knew I had to fix that right away, because the series is so awesome. Hope I picked well. Enjoy. ^_^

Great picks, Louise! I'm really looking forward to continuing with both of these series. And I keep thinking I shouldn't start any new series, but Black Dagger Brotherhood keeps getting recommended, so I'm thinking this is the time to get started...

Jammin Jenny (jamminjenny) | 1078 comments Thanks Tyler!

That bonus pick has been on my TBR at least since the big America Read came out...I don't remember reading it in school so I'm excited to see what all the fuss is about...

Michelle | 1657 comments Completion Post - Book 1 - Chosen by Bobbi

The Beast (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #14) by J.R. Ward

Book - The Beast
Author - J.R. Ward
Date Read - 2/6/21
Rating - 5 Stars
Review - This is book 14 in the Black Dagger Brotherhood Series. The MC's that the book mainly focuses on is Rhage and Mary. Rhage is one of the brothers and Mary is his mate. Mary works at safe place which is mainly a safe house for abused women and children vampires. Bitty, one of the children living there becomes an orphan when her mahmen dies. Mary and Rhage, who are childless and unable to have children, take a shine to the girl. There are a few other side stories that go along with the main storyline. This is one of my favorite series ever. It's so easy to get lost in the world.

Susan A | 2110 comments Karen --

I read
The Alien's Escape Feb 10 ★★★★
Barbarian's Lady Feb 8 ★★★★

I enjoyed both and plan to continue both series. Thanks for these picks.


Danielle  Gypsy Soul (afdaniellet) | 1956 comments I listened to Dead Witch Walking and the audio was good but I had so much trouble getting into this book. I just never liked Rachel and I don't understand the super weird relationship she has with Ivy.

I also read Top Secret which was just okay. Too much frat politics and the romance was very lukewarm.

Diane ~Firefly~ | 461 comments Danielle Gypsy Soul

I read the bonus early and finished it in Jan
Blood Heir (Aurelia Ryder, #1) by Ilona Andrews

But I did finish this one in Feb
The Body from the Past (Jazzi Zanders Mystery #5) by Judi Lynn

Thanks again for the picks!


message 87: by Marty (new)

Marty (martymill) | 1308 comments I'm only going to manage one of my picks this month. The Stalin Epigram by Robert Littell was really good. Well constructed plot, fascinating characters trying to survive (or self-destruct in the case of Osip Mandelstam) during the Terror in Russian. Five stars.

Still going to finish Wolf Among Wolves by Hans Fallada . It's just so long and it really needs to be read in spurts.
