That one was a little slow for me too Chelsea. Don't give up the story picks up and the series gets better. I always figure the first book in a series is where the world building and character development begins so sometimes it can be drawn out and sluggish but after that its all good.

MsBeaglely | 118 comments Finally finished Bone Crossed (Mercedes Thompson, #4) by Patricia Briggs . I didn't think I would ever finish it.

Up next is Embers (Anya Kalinczyk, #1) by Laura Bickle . I'm orginally from Detroit, where this books takes place. I had to laugh when Anya goes into a bakery and saw two of my favorite Polish foods; Pirogis & Paczkis. Nobody understands that stuff down here in Florida.

You were right. The last bit picked up and I finished last night. I liked it, was just surprised how long it took. LOL. I really like Rachel, Ivy and Jenks -- intriguing characters, so I'll be picking up the next book in the series.

Chelsea (vampirebookclub) | 89 comments Finished Dead Witch Walking (Rachel Morgan/The Hollows, #1) by Kim Harrison , which despite my slower pace reading it, I really enjoyed.

I just started The Iron Daughter (Iron Fey, #2) by Julie Kagawa . I read 100 pages last night and had to fight with myself to put the book down and go to bed. (Husband didn't see the point of the struggle.) Those who loved The Iron King, know the next book begins with increased Ash drama, and, really, that's a good thing.

Sandy | 449 comments I'm reading too many books right now. I'm reading Linger, Deliver Us from Evil and listening to the audiobook of Single White Vampire


message 8069: by Heather in FL (new)

Heather in FL (heather_fl) I made it through the Guardians of Eternity series from Alexandra Ivy (which I enjoyed), and I can't wait for the next one to come out. :-) Since I couldn't find my book 1 of Demonica (have since found), I decided to finish up the Children of the Goddess series from R. G. Alexander. I really enjoyed book 3, and have started on the last one: Midnight Falls (Children of the Goddess, #4) by R.G. Alexander . Word of warning: if you don't like sex in your books, don't pick these up. They're on the kinky side, but a very interesting story line, IMO.

Awesomevegan (AKA JenReads) (awesomevegan) | 184 comments I must be out of my mind because I am about to start Linger (The Wolves of Mercy Falls, #2) by Maggie Stiefvater

I say out of my mind because I also have the following in progress:
A Kiss of Shadows (Meredith Gentry, #1) by Laurell K. Hamilton Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë Dracula by Bram Stoker

I would like to finish at least some of them by the end of the month and I wanted to also read Night World, No. 3 Huntress, Black Dawn, Witchlight (Night World, #7-9) by L.J. Smith by the end of the month so I could be up to date in that series. But idk if that's going to happen lol!

I really enjoyed her Dark Hunters/Were Hunters/Dream Hunters series. I read all 18 books out there in a little over a week.

Lora Savchova (lorasavchova) | 313 comments Just read And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie today. AMAZING book - I totally agree with the people saying this is the best crime novel.

So glad you like the series. I'm done with her series, boohoo...

I'm starting Mona Lisa Awakening (Monère Children of the Moon, #1) by Sunny but it's not doing anything for me. Am I alone on this, should I even try to finish it?


message 8082: by Christine (new)

Christine Blair | 4 comments I just finished reading Imprinted Souls by Danielle Lanzarotta and now I'm reading Burned from the House of night series and next will be The short life of Bree Tanner by Stephanie Myers then onto the Host. Any one read any of these?

Amy (amescat) | 279 comments Crazy4more - I read 1 book by Sunny and I cannot bring myself to read anything else by her.

I would go for the PC Cast's Marked. I've been reading with the series and to be honest with you I didn't really like Marked when I first started reading it but then I got hooked lol I'm reading Burned now which is I think the 7th in the series and its a really good story. I hope that helps you :-}:


message 8085: by Crazy4more (new)

Crazy4more (lan-ni) | 3071 comments Thanks Amy, I thought it was just me. I'm not a prude when it comes to sex scenes but these didn't even make sense to me. The story line wasn't even compelling. Now I'm officially having a Bones withdrawal, sigh...

Hannah (hblatchford) | 2 comments Heya

has anyone else read 'friend or fae' by Hannah Blatchford?

I think it has only just come out but I love this book (only two chapters left) and was wondering if there are any more vampire/faerie type books like this that are set in the UK?


message 8087: by Kb (new)

Kb | 3 comments Finished "Dead in the Family" now reading "Curse the Dawn"
So far not impressed - Cassie seems to have the IQ equivalent of her bra size. So many angles are being thrown up in the first half of the book that I am anticipating a cliff hanger with the words to be concluded in the next series ringing in my head. I enjoy Chance's writing style but sometimes I feel as if this book was a struggle.

I haven't read Burned yet so let me know how it is. I almost want to give up on that series but keep coming back. The Host is a great book. I was drawn into that world and felt so much for the characters.

I read Interview with the Vampire years ago. I don't know if you've read Anne Rice before, but she loves to ramble on. There's a part in the book where she goes on for a couple of pages describing a dark room.

Interview is OK. It's not the best book in the series, but it's not the worst either.

I haven't read this, so take this for what it's worth. Some people love Sunny, some people hate Sunny. I read a short story that had something to do with the Monere storyline, and was almost a little grossed out by it. It didn't make me want to seek out a full-length book by her.

No, I have never read Anne Rice before....which one do you recommend?
She rambles? hhhmmmmm


message 8096: by Jen ~The dreamer~ (new)

Jen  ~The dreamer~ | 649 comments I LOVE the Vampire Chronicles, my least favorite of the books is, Queen of the Damned(but I still liked it). Lestat is a fantastic vampire and probably one of my favorites of all time. I think Anne Rice writes beautifully and the way her vampires interact with each other is wonderful.


message 8097: by MsBeaglely (new)

MsBeaglely | 118 comments With Anne Rice, it's really hit or miss. I loved The Mummy (a stand alone novel), Queen of the Damned (3rd in the Vampire Chronicles) and The Mayfair Witches (1st in the Mayfair Witches series). However, I hated The Vampire Lestat, Tale of the Body Thief & Memnoch the Devil (all from the Vampire Chronicles).

One of the reasons that I like Queen of the Damned & the Mayfair Witches was because those books had a lot of back story, which I love. In Queen of the Damned you got the back story of how vampires came into existence and in the Mayfair Witches you got the back story on all the previous Mayfair witches.

I would give Interview a try; you might like it. I believe that Anne Rice has wonderful ideas; however, her ramblings often bogged down the story.


message 8098: by Jessica (new)

Jessica (imahoodieninja) | 170 comments Thanks for the feedback! I can at least go into this knowing something......like the ramblings.... :)

Well I'm half way through Burned and I think its good although it seems like something is missing but still a good read.
