What are you reading right now?


Singh is a great author! If you like UF with a nice dose of romance and action, I think you will like this book. Enjoy!




Singh is a great au..."
I am relatively new here. What is UH?

Do you mean UF? That stands for urban fantasy. You will also see pnr - paranormal romance - a lot in this group.


Aren't that many books that cut into my sleep time."
LOL!! Yeah. CV books kept me up until i finished the book. How are you liking book 2 so far?
--------------
I'm now into book 3!

Surprisinly, Im actually liking the series now!!
I read from chapter 4 till the end of The Awakening last night!
The pace actually picked up from the last book!
Woohoo! Thank-you to those who suggested that I continue the series and that the series does get better!
------
It is now 4:30am...I finally managed to close the book and will now attempt to go to sleep.
Chapter 16 = awww!
Chapter 28 = what i will read after a much needed rest.






Pam - I struggled with the first Rachel Morgan book but found they get much better as they go. I really like the series. Oh and I love the Sunny books - I agree about Halcyon - and the Chicagoland Vamps is one of my top 5 favorite series.

I am curious about eh reviews on the Kim Harrison books I tried to read the first one and just couldn't get into it - have heard from others that it is good and also am curious if I should add it back to my list?

Melanie, I have both series by N.Singh on my night stand. I hear lots of great things about her. You can't go wrong, let me know how you like it.
I also have a couple books from Fever and Highlanders by Moning...I'm such a pig... I just didn't want to return any of it to the library, lol. And I'm finishing Demonica, see what I mean, such a pig...






I think it's often hard to get through the first of a series. So much time is spent world-building and learning the "rules" of this version of the world, that sometimes the story gets buried in the beginning.
I was about to give up on the first book, but so many others said it was good so I plowed through and I'm glad I did. I've really enjoyed them all, even the ones others didn't like so much.

I finished what exists of the Demonica series and I've preordered #5. I'll be sad that this series is over. I really liked them all.
I bought some Gena Showalter a while back, so figured I'd go ahead and start with that one. I'm reading


Has anyone read the Jaz Parks books - I borrowed them and need to start reading them - well I read a few but just can't bring myself to read the rest.

Both myself & my mom had a hard time with Dead Witch Walking. However, on a whim, I checked out the second book in the series & thought it was much better the Dead Witch Waking.
I've read the first book in the Jaz Park series & I really didn't like it. It was one of those books that after I finally finished it, I ended up asking myself what I had just read. I know other people have enjoyed it, but I hated it & probably will not continue with the series.


Loved it! Fave book of the series.
Least fave is still The Summoning.
So, with that done...any suggestions on what series/book I should read next?










I haven't read Eternal Kiss of Darkness either. I read three of the Night Huntress novels. I really liked them both the mystery and the romance were good. I stopped reading the series because of the violence.




Nightlife doesn't have any romance, I've only read it though, so there might be romance later on in the series.









After that, I read the novella

Now, I'm trying to decide if I'm moving on to Manifest, Catching Fire, Sins of the Soul or Veil of Shadows. My TBR pile is towering these days.

Ugh! Not even a little bit? A fling? A kiss? It's about 2 brothers! One of em should get a little action at least! Lol. You know when you've read too many romance novels when....

Bitten had a slow start but ended up being excellent.
The Darkest Night was good. I hav..."
Hmm. I also found out that Kelley Armstrong's Darkest Powers series also had a slow start. But do I believe that her series does get better - also proven by DP.
Gena Showalter's book sound good though....SO...my series order will be:
I'll start reading:

Then read the rest in the following order!




So i'll alternate from romance to UF.
Eternal Kiss of Darkness is just last since I may have a Cat & Bones withdrawal after it, hopefully by then a full novel for C&B are out...
Hopefully this works! :)

I just finished the book this afternoon. I loved it! I literally couldn't put it down since I started reading it Friday. That was a really great book. I can't wait to read the next one in the series. I'm also going to get the first in the Psy series.
I also read all the Moning books (Fever and Highlander). She's another great writer.





And because I'm waiting on getting the rest of the series, I think I'm going to read



That should keep me busy.. ;o)




I thought it was a good book... a bit more action than Cry Wolf, but then I liked Cry Wolf, too. Anna and Charles go to a summit with wolf packs from around the world to represent Bran and their pack. There's a bit of murder, mystery, and suspense... more fae, vampires, witches and more werewolf politics. I hope she continues with the series, because I'd definitely read the next one.



I agree, the first book was pretty slow. I'll definitely let you know what I think when I'm finished.

i had the same problem. i started it when i began college 10yrs ago and now am still at the beginning. i also tried another of Rice's books; Feast of All Saints cause i saw the movie and loved it. i couldn't get halfway through. i'ma give them a try again sometime in the future, but i doubt if it will be soon =)

Anybody remember Vanilla Sky? Not much of a movie- but it had Tom Cruise in it. What else do you need?

Now reading Some Girls Bite."
Yes I liked Unholy Magic better than [[book:Unholy Ghosts|6261189].Still different then most things I read But the book was good enough to make me wanna read the next oneCity of Ghosts


Pam, at first I was kinda appauled by the usage of sex behind the Moneres but I must admit, I love the story line now and can't wait for the next book. I love Halcyon from the beginning too. His characters are juicier and I love that he wear his emotion on his sleeves, sigh...
