I read DEVIL MAY RIDE in December and liked it. I like this whole series, so far.

Jess | 3721 comments Sarah - I really enjoyed Wake, I loved that it was different from other things I've read. The story was not only unique, but the writing style is also unique!

Melodie - I just flew through Devil May Ride, I have the next one here, and since there's a HUGE snowstorm coming. I'm definitely going to be reading it soon! I love this series. I think it's so interesting and a great combo of mystery and pnr :)

Up next: Flesh Circus (Jill Kismet, #4) by Lilith Saintcrow and Dead and Kicking (A Ghost Dusters Mystery, #3) by Wendy Roberts

Okay Sarah, this book was so BAD. Awful. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Yuck! Did I say it was BAD?





message 457: by Valorie (new)

Valorie I just finished Twilight Fall by Lynn Viehl. Great story, really enjoyed it. Now I think I'm going to force myself to read Shades of Gray by Amanda Ashley. She is my 2nd Chance author in one of my challenges. I thought Night's Touch was terrible, so I'm kinda scared to read another by her.


message 458: by Carolyn F. (new)

Carolyn F. Started Ravenous by Sharon Ashwood. About 5 chapters in and I'm liking it so far.

I've had Red on my list for awhile.. can you let me know how it is? :)


message 465: by Darcy (new)

Darcy (sunnytat462) | 3123 comments Jess I finished Red and I liked it and think you would too. I could tell right away where the story was going, but didn't mind it. I really liked the world that it was set in, the sexual tension was great, and the characters good. The only down side was that the book opens with a pretty brutal rape scene, but it is a major part of the story line. I will definitely be reading the next ones right away.


message 466: by Carolyn F. (new)

Carolyn F. Finished Ravenous last night. Very good book, but the sneak peek I didn't care for much.

hmm I'm going to have to check it out. I think it was in the library last time I was there, but knowing my luck I will go this weekend and it will be suddenly missing haha. Thanks for the review ;)


message 468: by Ellen (new)

Ellen (ellenpenleysmith) I finished Broken and went against my promise to read the others first... but I just couldn't do it! :/
Anyway, I loved it to pieces!! :D

I haven't read it, but it is on my list as it looks really interesting.




message 474: by Valorie (last edited Feb 13, 2010 11:40PM) (new)

Valorie I finished Shades of Gray by Amanda Ashley, wasn't too impressed by it. It was my second attempt at her books and I don't think I will read anymore. I'm now reading The Rest Falls Away (Gardella Vampire Chronicles, #1) by Colleen Gleason and so far so good.


message 475: by Patricia (new)

Patricia (catnaping) | 415 comments I finished Real Vampires Hate Their Thighs (Glory St. Claire, #5) by Gerry Bartlett it was fantastic some great men in that series.I also finished Born of Night (The League, #1) by Sherrilyn Kenyon on Audio.Now reading [image error]

I bought it, but I haven't read it yet. I'm still working on challenges.


message 478: by The Flooze (new)

The Flooze (the_flooze) | 1831 comments I read Deadtown the other day. Lots and lots of almost going on. Some good ideas, but all packed together without enough follow-through on any of them.

Can't make up my mind between Summer Knight and Indigo Springs for the next one...

I am a little over 50 pages in to Deadtown and I had to put it down. I like the premise, but not enough to keep reading for today. I think that I will pick it up again to see if it gets any better.

I am listening to Summer Knight right now and am on disc 4 and this one is pretty good. I haven't heard of the other one though.




message 480: by Sandra (new)

Sandra  (sleo) I finished Night Pleasures thank the good god above, and am almost finished with Lover Revealed.


message 481: by The Flooze (new)

The Flooze (the_flooze) | 1831 comments Darcy, that's the problem! The premise is great. It's lacking that shot of adrenaline to drive it home.

That's disappointing to hear about Deadtown because I also just picked it up from the library to read. :(


message 483: by Darcy (new)

Darcy (sunnytat462) | 3123 comments I have decided to give up Deadtown. I read 50 pages this morning, then quit to read something else. Finished that book, so thought I would go back to Deadtown for an hour before I went to bed. Read another 20 pages and realized I don't care, so it just isn't for me.

Jaime Rush (jaime_rush) | 126 comments I'm just starting Magic Bites by Ilona Andrews. I see that it's the BOM, though I haven't found the topic yet. Magic Bites (Kate Daniels, #1) by Ilona Andrews

I read Magic Strikes first and now want to go back and start at the beginning!


message 485: by The Flooze (new)

The Flooze (the_flooze) | 1831 comments Jaime, tut tut tut. Bad reader!

:p

I just finished Summer Knight and since Dresden books are like Pringles I'll have to rearrange my challenge list so I can read the next one! That darn Jim Butcher...

message 487: by Regina (new)

Regina (reginar) I am currently reading Charlaine Harris' An Ice Cold Grave An Ice Cold Grave (Harper Connelly Mystery, #3) by Charlaine Harris It is very different from the Sookie Stackhouse seriers in terms of content -- no hot sex scenes and romance is not the driving factor. It is a Who Done It series. The story lines are not very complex, but I am really enjoying them. I have read the first 2.5 in about 2 days. I really like the two main characters -- Tolliver and Harper.

I am jealous you have the new Kim Harrison already. My library usually gets them about a week late.

Can you stop back and let me know how Ballad is? I have it on my tbr list, loved Shiver, and wondering if I should move up her others.




message 494: by Sarah (last edited Feb 17, 2010 07:34AM) (new)

Sarah  | 766 comments Darcy--Yes, definitely read the others. I'm over halfway through Ballad, and I love it. Her writing is so lyrical it flows. Such a treat.


message 495: by Darcy (new)

Darcy (sunnytat462) | 3123 comments Thanks Sarah!!


message 496: by Valorie (new)

Valorie I finished both The Rest Falls Away (Gardella Vampire Chronicles, #1) by Colleen Gleason and [image error] . I really enjoyed Shadow Blade. A great Urban Fantasy book. Not much romance but great storyline, action, and some Egyptology history thrown in. The Rest Falls Away was pretty good. It was the first book in the series so there was quite a bit of character building, etc. I still enjoyed it and will read the next in the series. I'm now reading [image error]

Jaime Rush (jaime_rush) | 126 comments LOL, Michelle M, and now you see on the Karen Chance board that I'm doing it again. ::SLAP::

Thanks, Jess! I wasn't looking under the specific headings. I finished the book, so can now go comment!
