I'm out of Lisa Kleypas Books! What should I read Next???
I'm reading
and LOVING it! If you're looking for excellent historical romance, accuracy and substance, but with wonderful happily ever afters, check out Pamela Clare's historicals.
Woohoo! Somebody offered me a deal on PBS and the Highland trilogy plus another book is on its way to me! Woohoo!!

I haven't read the Wallflower or Hathaway series yet.

Shadow Music is up next & I noticed the ratings aren't as good as the 1st two books. I'm wondering how it ties in the the other books, didn't recognize any of the characters in the synopsis..... humm?
I don't remember, Christine. I'm sorry... it was an ok story, maybe even good, but just not as good as most of hers. If I recall correctly, I heard it was the last book she wrote in HR.
Until now, I hadn't seen Shadow Music grouped withe The Secret and Ransom. I have no idea if or how they relate since I haven't read them yet. I usually see it grouped with her contemporary Buchanan series, because I think the characters are supposed to be their ancestors.
No, I had the right book in mind, Dhestiny. If you look on FictionDB (http://www.fictiondb.com/author/julie...), they still have Shadow Music with the Buchanans. As I recall, the characters are somehow related to them. However, I did a bit of searching and discovered that Julie Garwood's website, as well as Fantastic Fiction now has it listed with The Secret and Ransom, so maybe there are some related characters from those books too.
Ok, I know that the characters in the historical are ancestors of those in the contemporary. I don't rmeember there being any cross over characters though.**shrugs** Time for a re-read.
Is that your first Judith MacNaught book? I am going to be starting:
soon, and I have never read her before.
Yes that the first book of hers that i read now i'am reading Whitney,my love.She's an amazing author
As a fellow Bone's lover Bekah, I trust your judgment and have high hopes : )I thought "Whitney, My Love" was the second one is this series?
Whitney is book 2, Suzanne. It was written before Kingdom of Dreams, but in chronological order, it's Kingdom of Dreams, Whitney, My Love, Until You...
I read KoD first, and it made Whitney so much sweeter! Because at the end of Whitney, Whitney is reading a message from Jennifer Westmoreland (From 8 generations earlier) and it was so heart warming to read it because we know Jennifer from the earlier.
Suzanne wrote: "Is that your first Judith MacNaught book? I am going to be starting:

I can't wait to start reading it! I am reading "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy, I think it is supposed to be one of those books that you are supposed to like, but for me it is just boring as hell!

and yes Dhes i read Whitney, My Lovefirst.. and it was so sentimental when i read Almost Heavenand then i finished them with Until You... just lovely!!
ok i will shut up now lol! ;P
Hope u like that Author hun, let us know how u like her! ;)
Happy reading.!
For Judith McNaught, you guys should try Once and Always... It's a great book! angsty and emotional, and wunderbar:-)
Recommendations Please!I enjoyed the Comanche Moon book and would welcome more ideas in a similarish vein.
I'd also be interested in books including circuses as I'm trying to track down an old favourite and often reading books in the same genre will gradually lead you back to the original book.

I'm sure you're going to love the 2nd book too!

[bookcover:Written on Your Skin|5841..."Is this the reading order?

[bookcover:Written on You..."Yes but only the middle two are linked and they run almost concurrently. I'd written to her to ask if a minor character could have her own book.

[bookcover:Written on Your Skin|5841..."~sigh~ I LOVED The Duke of Shadows... I have to make more of an effort to read her other works. Were they as good?
I loved Bound by you touch but thought Written on your skin was so-so/ Wicked becomes you was good but not in the same league as DotS or BbyT
Currently on a Pamela Clarekick ( Just wish her older ones were available still on Kindle!) and discovered a new author whose books I LOVED!! Ellen O'Connell I read her 2 western novels but am not interested in her dog mysteries. The 2 westerns were 5 star for me, but the covers and editing suck.

What should I read next guys? I've got lots of good books and time on my hands between the spring and summer semesters...I was thinking abut going on to the next Psy-Changeling series, or starting Pamela Clare's I team series, or...the mercedes thompson series...
What should I read next?????
Re: I've read her historical romances and liked them but haven't tried her contemporary stuff...my library doesn't have it at all...have to hunt something down.
i finished my LK books for the month, I'm going on vaca next week where I don't believe I'll be spending a lot of time reading at all...so I don't know if I should get sucked into a series right now..Why is this so hard???
Bekah, one thing about the I-Team series is that there are no cliff-hangers, so if you wanted to pace yourself you could. Each book is amazing, and the characters overlap so I'd definitely read them in order, but it's not like you're going to HAVE to read the next book right away.
