I liked the Accidental Vampire. There were several times it made me laugh out loud.


message 9206: by Raine (new)

Raine | 65 comments I just finished Blue Bloods (Blue Bloods, #1) by Melissa de la Cruz and will probably pick up the other books in this series as well. Now I am starting Heart of the Dragon (Atlantis, #1) by Gena Showalter for a challenge.

I also just finished Styx's Storm (Breeds, #22) by Lora Leigh about the time you made your post. I thought it was pretty good as far as the Breed Series, although not my favorite overall. Definitely in the top half though.

I don't know what to read now. I think I need a brown or yellow book for the Oct challenge. I was thinking about moving onto Dane, even though it's the middle of a series.

@Rebecca, I loooved Spirit Bound and can't wait for the conclusion of the VA series. I also thought Accidental Vampire was pretty good, but Sands is one of my more favorite PNR authors.

Ursamater | 18 comments Well Eowynmn,

How hot do you like your paranormal romance? Have you read any Emma Holly? I just happened to notice that the cover of Demon's
Fire that I listed was a sort of brown/yellow! :) But she's pretty smoking and that might not be your cup of joe. Also, I noticed that some people are uncomfortable with her alternative history Victorian era for the Demon series. But I thought I'd throw it out there.


message 9211: by EowynRN (last edited Oct 06, 2010 12:14PM) (new)

EowynRN | 121 comments Ursa, I will check it out. I was actually looking at the cover and thinking "Hmm, that book's yellow" when I posted earlier. ..and I'm horrible, the hotter the better. I get mad if a book doesn't have enough intriguing sex. Sue me. ;)

ETA: I noticed it was 6 in a series. Do you think it works as a stand alone well enough? THat's the problem I've been having. All the brown and yellow books are never #1 in a series.


message 9212: by Ursamater (new)

Ursamater | 18 comments Hi Eowynmn,
Actually, of those listed, only three are full books; Demon's Daughter, Prince of Ice and this one. The others are short stories. I've read one but not the others of the short stories. The one I read was tangential. However, as I think about it, I'm not sure I'd read Demon's Fire without reading the other two books. Not that I think you couldn't figure out "the world", but because you'd lose a lot of the character tension and development.

Sorry!

On the other hand, this is one of my favorite series if you like erotic romance. I highly recommend it if you like unusual and complex characters with wonderful romances. She knows her history and she can world-build... but she writes off-beat relationships. I love them but I've seen reviews where it was clear that the reviewer didn't see it the same way. She is in my top ten erotic romance writers list.


message 9213: by Heather in FL (new)

Heather in FL (heather_fl) I finished Taken by Midnight. So good. I don't wanna wait for the next one, lol! Not sure what I'm going to read next. Maybe the Darkyn series from Lynn Viehl?


message 9214: by Crazy4more (new)

Crazy4more (lan-ni) | 3071 comments I can't believe I'm not jumping into Sin Undone (Demonica, #5) by Larissa Ione . My head is so consumed by the Highlander series by Moning. Anywho, I'm onto bk#3 The Highlander's Touch (Highlander, #3) by Karen Marie Moning .

Keri | 158 comments Amy,

So glad you like the book! I LOVED the series, couldn't put them down either. Hate to admit it but am struggling to MAKE myself focus on my college reading material instead of starting a new series...although I did just start a the Dark series by Christine Feehan....not bad, no LOL parts y


message 9216: by Keri (new)

Keri | 158 comments oops, posted that too soon, no lol parts yet but still not a bad series, just not one of my favorites...

Well who knows, maybe I will start the series. She actually has one of the novellas in the Anthology I'm reading for pink. Hot Blooded (Includes Carpathians, #14; Midnight Upyr, #4; Mageverse, #1) by Christine Feehan I would love more recommendations on Erotic PNR, since it's hard to figure out whats what. I tried to add you as a friend but alas, I don't know your frogs name. Apparently it's not Kermit. :)


message 9220: by Ursamater (new)

Ursamater | 18 comments Ooops Eowynmn,

Oh, heavens. I'd forgotten that I set it up that way last year before I really had hung out here enough to get it. I'll see if I can fix that! I'm still not as conversant with the user interface here as I'd like either. It doesn't work the way I think a lot of the time... I'll try to friend you too. Anyway, it would be cool if you'd try the series and let me know what you think.


message 9221: by Keri (new)

Keri | 158 comments Sharron,

The Dragon Kin series is by G. A. Aiken (who is actually the author Shelly Laurenston, Aiken is her pen name). I HIGHLY recommend the series along with her other two series the Magnus Pack series and her Pride series. Both of these also really made me LOL. She's a GREAT author. I give all 3 series 5 stars!


message 9222: by Sandra J (new)

Sandra J Weaver (sandraweaver) | 451 comments I'll second that comment. I love everything she's written and often reread my favorites (Loch!). Laurenston's books are always good for a laugh.


message 9223: by K (new)


A book away from an episode of hoarders (fidgit77) | 49 comments Right now I'm reading Strange Angels (Strange Angels, #1) by Lilith Saintcrow on Audio in the car, Darkfever (Fever, #1) by Karen Marie Moning on my kindle app, and Lover Mine (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #8) by J.R. Ward from the library.

Pansy | 740 comments I stopped reading Highlander's Touch so I could read Styx's Storm by Lora Leigh. It was okay(released Oct. 5th). Should have stayed with my Highland Warriors. I am back to reading the Highland series.

EowynRN | 121 comments I think I will try Some Girls Bitetoo. I'm having a hard time getting through Hot Blooded.


message 9231: by twinfish2 (new)

twinfish2 | 84 comments Just picked up STYX'S STORM by lora leigh from the library. I am almost to scared to start this one. I thought her last two LIONS HEAT and BENGALS HEART were really bad and have decided to give her only one more try. But the overall reviews for this one on amazon are really bad. Oh well here goes.

Just finished Styx's Storm. I was afraid to read it also. Let me know what you think when you finish.


message 9233: by *Mrs. Brightside* (new)

*Mrs. Brightside* Just finished The Forest of Hands and Teeth (The Forest of Hands and Teeth, #1) by Carrie Ryan which made me depressed. I will be starting Strange Angels (Strange Angels, #1) by Lilith Saintcrow later sometime


message 9234: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (bexsi) I have just finished Dark Lover by J.R. Ward and it was fantastic, It may get a bit intense to read the series one after the other so I think I will read a different book in between. I have just started the last book in the blood ties series All Souls' Night by Jennifer Armintrout.


message 9235: by Scarlet (new)

Scarlet (extraordinarygirl86) | 81 comments I'm reading Some Girls Bite, the first book in Chloe Neill's Chicagoland vampires series. I think I've found another favorite vampire series. I really love it so far. I'm only 129 pages into the book and I'm already and Ethan/Merit shipper.

Up next I'll probably read Dead, Undead, or Somewhere in Between by J.A. Saare while I wait to get the next book in the Chicagoland series which I ordered on amazon today. J.A. Saare is another good supernatural author. I loved her book Crimson Moon.

Denise Nanna | 1321 comments Reading Venom (Elemental Assassin, #3) by Jennifer Estep and I have liked this series.
On to Kiss of Midnight (Midnight Breed, #1) by Lara Adrian


message 9237: by Crazy4more (new)

Crazy4more (lan-ni) | 3071 comments I'm so enjoying The Highlander's Touch (Highlander, #3) by Karen Marie Moning . I wonder how much connected this series to the Fever series? Wonder if Barrons is one of these immortal highlanders?

Moving onto Kiss of the Highlander (Highlander, #4) by Karen Marie Moning next.


message 9238: by Lori (new)

Lori | 5 comments I finished Kelley Armstrong's 'Waking the Witch' on Tuesday. I'm about 20 pages from the end of Ann Aguirre's 'Killbox' - was reading that while traveling - I feel dumb sitting in an airport with tears streaming down my face, but this book gave me no choice - so many partings for poor Jax to deal with. (I'm on vacation visiting family and probably won't have a chance to read the ending for a few more days; I have a feeling it will bring on more tears, so will try to polish it off before I go to the airport!)

Jen  ~The dreamer~ | 649 comments Just starting Demon from the Dark (Immortals After Dark, #10) by Kresley Cole . Sniff, sniff....I'm sad I'm finished reading about the MacRieve brothers....At least in a full novel.

EowynRN | 121 comments Just finished Pleasure Unbound (Demonica, #1) by Larissa Ione and thouroughly enjoyed it. Finally an author who puts in the minimum amount of Erica-required sex scenes. :) Moving on to Desire Unchained (Demonica, #2) by Larissa Ione

message 9246: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (bexsi) I just finished All Souls' Night (Blood Ties, #4) by Jennifer Armintrout by Jennifer Armintrout very good. and I have just started City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments, #1) by Cassandra Clare by Cassandra Clare


message 9247: by K (new)

K | 21 comments I am almost halfway through Field of Blood. It is decent but a little confusing. He is slowly revealing his world, so you have to kind of go with the flow but I feel like I am missing something until it is revealed twenty pages later. His take on vampires is interesting as well. Dead bodies have to be touched by blood (I think in some sort of violent death but it isn't totally clear), in the case of the two bands of vampires being followed, their burial place was infiltrated by the blood of Judas Iscariot and once the tomb was opened, Collectors (demons) were able to reanimate the dead bodies. They have many of the mainstream features of vampires like their need for blood.


message 9248: by Pansy (new)

Pansy | 740 comments Just finished Highlander's Touch. I am so in love with this series. I was going to go straight into the next book but I think I will start Crave and then back to the Highland men. Oh, Outlander by Diana Gabaldon is free on Amazon. I just got it. I have read it before and it is a great book.
