It's the first totally non-supernatural book I've read in a while! But I love Molly Harper, she's so funny! I mean, check out the opening sentence: "If Singletree's only florist didn't deliver her posies half-drunk, I might still be married to that floor-licking, scum-sucking, receptionist-nailing hack-accountant, Mike Terwilliger." Seriously, is that an awesome opening line, or what??

I'm on Dead Reckoning. Forgot how much I loved this world. I just wish she'd give Bill another chance....
I finished
and it was so good. Cord was a little overwhelming. AmyJo was adorable. I am truly hooked on this series. I am reading
and
.These are totally different types of books.
I'll be starting it today, Katya!!!! Wooohooo!
I accidentally found out something major that happens in this book months ago, and I am anxious about reading it...But I am loving the series...
i'm still reading
it's really good but I must not be sleeping well because for the past few nights I've crashed early cause I'm so tired.
Anyone start Storm's Heart by Thea Harrison? Just came out today and I'm about 30% into it. I LOVED the first book. I'm a bit disappointed so far in the 2nd. Don't get me wrong...it's good and I'll def finish it. But the pace is weird, their relationship is inconsistent, and there's too much description of appearance and backstory. I find myself skimming parts. Anyone else with me?Leia Shaw

Because
was so good!
My biggest problem is that
&
come out the same day....which to read?
I'm reading Storm's Heart & am loving it. No complaints here.

I love what Tricks says to Tiago when he shows up and hears she thinks he looks like The Rock..."Don't let it go to your head, you aren't as sexy as I think you are."
Hahahaha that was funny. I'm about 60% in, looks like it's going to be a long night for me.

Yeah I loved the other books in the series, hoping this one is as good :)
Denise wrote: "I finally started 
after a year since reading 
and I have 
waiting on my night stand too."Denise, be patient and it'll pay off IN BOOK 5...Seriously??? I was so bugged, yearned for the impossibility BUT at the same time, I was enthralled and wanted to get to the end.

I finished
and loved it...although it could have used a better editor in places.Now I'm getting ready to start
Finished
AND
. Crazy good but warning, you must be an emotional masochistic...and a real patient one at that. Seriously, I understand building up a storyline but 5 books into the series? ...patient masochist at best, nuff said! I found myself reading to 5 am bc it just bugged me sooooo much. You don't know how many times I had to drop the book and just had to walk away, then coming back, eagerly wanting to finish the read.

This is one of my fav's. On the other hand, I gave up on Black Dagger and Psi-changeling series because they were too predictable after you read the first page of each book. I know most people love those. (I did like the first 5 or so BDB before I got bored, in my defense. LOL)
Ok. I finished
and it was great. Totally hooked on this series. I was going to read
but 3 books came out today that I have been waiting for:
,
,and
. Since I am a long time Kenyon fan, it has to be Retribution first.

I thinking reading thru her POV, I'm living her pain, I guess. It's just so heartwrenching I felt like I was drowning bc I'm carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders too...until at the end of book 5 when she actually took control of her life and be the strength she innate within instead of choices that were forced upon her. Finally...but what about Roman, he's the man!...just not hers, sigh...
OK, what's next on my list while I'm waiting for the last book of Georgina Kincaid? 
This one is light, funny and yummy.
Glad you've joined the Georgie followers, Crazy4more. If you would like to add your theories to how its going to end pop down to the Succubus Theories thread under Urban fantasy. Love to hear your thoughts.

Where is the button STOPPED READING (cause it is rubbish)because I fell asleep three times while reading because the book is just going on and on with nothing happening, then hoped the people would just die and get to the end!!!.

Make your own Stopped Reading shelf. You just go into your bookshelf and make it exclusive.
I'm finished
and I only thought it was okay. A lot of my friends rated it 5 stars, but I was disappointed by the book. I'm hoping as the series progresses, she develops the male characters more.I'm reading
(Sundown!)

Just finished reading Halfway in th Grave by Jeaniene Frost I liked the book; however, I hated the ending kind of put me off for reading the second book. Her mother is such a B*****! Is it worth it to stick it out and read the rest of the series?? Also finished reading Master of Shadows by Angela Knight loved it. About to start Storm's Heart by Thea Harrison.
Melissa wrote: "Just finished reading Halfway in th Grave by Jeaniene Frost I liked the book; however, I hated the ending kind of put me off for reading the second book. Her mother is such a B*****! Is it worth it..."Yes stick with them they are great, really good series
I started Retribution last night! Sundown is going to be interesting... scorpion plagues! Coyote shifters! Human sacrifice! Oh my!
I'm reading
so far so good. I'm struggling with what to read next. I was spoiled by the outlander series and now I'm in let down mode. I would like to find a good series with lengthy books; any recommendations?
I finally finished
good book but it left me a little cold... now getting ready to read
Melissa wrote: "Just finished reading Halfway in th Grave by Jeaniene Frost I liked the book; however, I hated the ending kind of put me off for reading the second book. Her mother is such a B*****! Is it worth it..."Definitely continue with it! I HATE her mom AND it's very rare I truly HATE a character. She's so full of herself, I truly believe she hated her daughter...and that's what bugged me the most. Night Hunter is one of my loved series. Just saying.
I haven't read anything from A.Knight but she's on my list.
Can't wait to get my next read from Thea Harrison. Love my dragon fix. That's why I'm so enjoying
. I'm giggling and smiling all the time...so sexy and funny!

Love to hear you..."Oh Seth is her true north, her Kyriakos and her contract breaker! even though I half-hearted think Georgina&Roman and Seth&Maddie are not a bad combinations IF immortal and mortal issues are concern. I love Roman too, he loved her in his he-man way, he'd protect her and she'd find happiness with him...once Seth is out of the picture...

What I had to do was switch genre and it was IN DEATH series that saved me. I love love and still loving its audiobook. In fact, IN DEATH series helps me keep my reading AND life in balance. It prevents me from having that crazy glaze in my eyes when I'm engross in a book. My life saver, Roarke & Eve!
I read
and I just dont know. I hear that book 5 is great but I dont know if I want to snooze through 3 and 4 to get to it. There just isnt enough action so far. I love Richelle Mead though.Now reading
Of you that have read both, which series would you suggest next, Morganville Vamps or Rachel Morgan?

I'm one of the those who loved it, I love the pace, packed with so much action, the storyline and all the characters. Can't wait for the next book. Enjoy.
Denise wrote: "Of you that have read both, which series would you suggest next, Morganville Vamps or Rachel Morgan?"They're both really good. The Rachel Morgan series is my favorite of the two though.

Seriously as I was finishing book 5, it was so good that I couldn't fathom the patience and pain I had to endure to get to this point, sigh...lots of patience and now I can't wait for the next and last book. It took 4 books to set up, build up for the last 2 great ones...your call.
Just started
can't wait to get into it!! Loved the first book!
I'm just starting Girls in Trucks by Katie Crouch but after seeing what so many of my friends said about it on here, I'm not sure if I should keep reading!! Ahhhh-I'm going to give it a try!!
Allison wrote: "Just started can't wait to get into it!! Loved the first book!"I'm sorry you're not as happy with this book. I thought it'd have a lot of potential base on the storyline from the first book. I'll get mine soon from the library and hope not to be disappointed as well. Sigh...

I was such an emotional wreck my boyfriend didn't know what the heck my problem was. It affected me even after I put the books down.
