ABSOLUTELY! I actually think there is a place where a discussion about this book has been going on, but I can't really remember where (but it IS in this group, just somewhere....)

There is a place, with a pretty new debate ^^ I'm the second member there, which is weird, 'cause I think there should be many more members.. Hmm.. Well, here's a link http://www.goodreads.com/group/show/3... .. Come join ^^

Jas (10jbean01) | 30 comments Sounds Good!

Also, got "Silver Borne" today, so I'm setting aside "Nice Girls Don't Have Fangs." I've been doing that a lot with books, its starting to make me feel a bit like a book whore....

Nicole (satori1977) | 47 comments In the middle of Bone Crossed (Mercedes Thompson, #4) by Patricia Briggs , and I am almost finished with Flirt (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, #18) by Laurell K. Hamilton . I agree it definitely is shorter than her other books. But it is a fun, light read. Not all about sex, and back to zombie raising, which I like. Definitely different.

Desperado (lethallovely) | 453 comments I'm currently almost finished with Night Lost (Darkyn, #4) by Lynn Viehl & am starting Succubus Dreams (Georgina Kincaid, #3) by Richelle Mead . Night Lost was slow at first but has gotten progressively better.As for Succubus Dreams ,I have a feeling it's not gonna end well for the starstuck lovers.

Nita (gillnit) Finished Flirt (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, #18) by Laurell K. Hamilton . The animator part of the story deserved to be a full length novel I think. Plus, I miss Jean-Claude.

Now reading Silver Borne (Mercedes Thompson, #5)  by Patricia Briggs .

Kat Falla | 1 comments I'm listening to Fantasy Lover and honestly - it's a little too...I don't know, not sexy. Help! I like J.R. Ward, so I thought I might like this - any suggestions people? Also, the audio book has a woman reading the male role altering her voice - weird...

^^IMO, Sherrilyn and J.R. Ward have different style of writing. Sherrilyn's works are like PNR meets chick lits. Ward's on the other hand is a bit darker than that. I like both authors though because the male protagonist always have interesting past. In my opinion, it's really difficult to find an author that is on the same par as J.R.Ward but I find that Lara Adrian's Midnight series has almost the same tone as Ward's BDB. So maybe you can give that series a try if you haven't already :)

And please don't let Fantasy Lover deter you from reading the rest of Sherrilyn's Dark Hunter series. I think the series starts with Kyrian's book. Fantasy Lover is just a prelude to the series. I admit I don't like Fantasy Lover either and that was the first book of hers that I read. I almost gave up on her but decide to give her another shot. It was a shot well deserved <3

Ah, Fantasy Lover. The cutesy book that has very little to do with the Dark Hunters, yet is their prequel.

SK says you can jump around, but to my mind the series wouldn't make as much sense/would seem kinda random if you didn't read it in order. There are definite threads running through all the books.

It is okay to jump around as each character's story is a stand-alone. BUT I would highly recommend that you read it in sequence, especially if you love Acheron. With each book, a tiny bits of Acheron's past will be revealed and to me, that's the best part :) Furthermore, I'm afraid you'll get confused when certain characters suddenly jumped into picture and the bad-blood is already there between them.

The Dark Hunter series is actually pretty inter- connected between one book to another as compared to say, Christine Feehan's Dark series.

Lela Gwenn (gwenn) | 4 comments Every Demon Has His Day by Cara Lockwood
I just picked this up and I have to say, I'll finish it, but it isn't a must read... The idea is fun but the execution is so so. I don't hate it, but I don't love it so far either. :(


 ~*~Princess Nya Vasiliev~*~ (abbaschild7748) I'm reading Awaken Me Darkly (Alien Huntress, #1) by Gena Showalter

Jumping around would not be good. Make sure that when you get to the Dream Hunters you read them in the order intertwined with the Dark Hunter portion. Also, there are some short stories that would explain characters that just pop up. I skipped the short stories and characters appeared in the next book with no explanation. Wonderful series though. Julian appears in several books after this one.

message 6426: by Fhal (new)

Fhal (donellys) | 1 comments I just finished Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick two days ago and today I just finished Gone by Lisa McMann.

Hush, Hush was great! It is about Fallen Angels and forbidden Love. The human in the story is Nora Grey and there are a lot of things that happen to her. The book has different twists in it and the author a really, really good job :)

Gone is the last book in the "Wake Trilogy" (Wake, Fade) This is a story that is more mature and not totally innocent (Language and Themes) The main characters are Janie and Cabel. Janie has a special ability that she thinks of as a curse, she is a 'dream catcher' and she gets sucked up into peoples dreams. She could change the course of the dream but not completely.

I'm going to start with The Fallen 1: The Fallen and Leviathan later or tomorrow. It's about Fallen angels again :)

I seem to be fond with Fallen Angels but I think of Vampires and Fallen Angels equally cool :)

I'm not a fan of SK so I'm not going to comment on the storyline. But I have to say, it is a horrible audiobook. Can't stand the narrator. It did not help the book at all.


message 6433: by Angela (new)

Angela (angbens) | 343 comments I so agree with the audiobook for Fantasy Lover. I like reading the book, but the audio book was terrible. She sounded like she was trying way too hard.

I do love the Dark Hunter series. Fantasy Lover isn't the best one, but they get better!
