It would be the Angels/Demons category--he is a Fallen angel.

"

Right, but if you were to include other characters in the book,..."

Only Lucas, and he isn't in the first book, at least that I recall.

And Dante could count for demons, too, since she's hedaira.

There has only been one book for Hush, Hush (as far as I know - the sequel is coming out later 2010).

We are talking about the same book, right?

[Laura Lulu]

Arcadia & Heather--you guys are talking about the Lara Adrian Working for the Devil book, right? I was responding to AwesomeVegan's question below about Hush, Hush, which is about a fallen angel. :)

Awesomevegan wrote: "Heather wrote: "I accidentally cracked and read Hush, Hush too early. It rocks by the way, so now I will need to make some adjustments to my list. I couldn't wait 2 days. Ugh."

Must be pretty good if you read it so fast. May have to check that one out soon. :) I read slow though so I may not be the best judge of that. :-P

Would that be immortals?"

[Tonya]

[Heather]

Ahrcadia ~(Fhantasie)~ wrote: "Oh, oops."

Nope, I was talking about Hush, Hush.
I started to wonder if things were getting screwy.

[Awesomevegan (AKA JenReads)]

So Hush, Hush = Fallen Angel. Cool :) I will check that out at some point.

I made a goal to read 100 books in 2010. :) I doubt they will ALL be supernatural or PNR. I may read some classics too since most are very cheap (or even free) for Kindle. :) I read so slow though! :) Hope you all can inspire me to read more.

[Leslie]

I'm hitting the flea market book lady this weekend so my list will complete.

Here's so far.

1. A Quick Bite
2. Moon CAlled
3
4
5 Lover Enshrined
6.
7.
8.
9.
10. Born In Night

Now I have a question. I want to re-read the Anne Rice Witches series.....would it qualify for the Witches portion?

[Leslie]

Could Beyond the Highland mist be Fae?

[Kelley Anne]

I would think so. That whole series has major Fae characters and the fae effect the story lines.

[Kelley Anne]

The only positive thing about having to work New Year's Eve is that I get to start listening to one of the new books on my list that I've been dying to read!

Tomorrow I'm doing a "girls day out" with my daughter and granddaughter. I think we might hit a used bookstore or 2 while we are out. Maybe even the Goodwill store across the street from Kohn's and JoAnne's while we are there so I can look for some more BOOKS. After all, I don't have enough already (trying to figure out how to hide the 3k+ books scattered all over the house )

It all depends on what I am reading. Sometimes I get addicted and my sleep suffers. I would like to be able to read faster, but sometimes feel like some speed readers misss parts of books.

[LooLoo]

Yz - Dreamfever and Angels' Blood are the last two books I read and I loved them both!!! Good luck with Skinwalker though, I struggled to get through it.

[Melissa]

I struggled a bit with Skinwalker, too. I wanted to like it so much, but it suffers from the "first book world building" syndrome.

I am from Texas but I am visiting family in Europe. It was also a quick read. I didnt realize that when I picked the book. I feel kinda guilty using it actually :)

Hi Felicia! *waves* I'm actually in Bothell, WA, but close enough! :-)

[Martina the Book Fairy]

BTW, if anyone is still looking for a space story, check out Restoree by Anne McCaffrey. It was first published in 1967 and is pretty much the very first futuristic romance.

It is a wee bit dated, but stands the test of time very well!
