I want to read those, I have purchased the first one so far. Have you watched the show? I am wondering how closely it follows the books.

Jenne  (jennetheinstigator) | 368 comments I finished Under Her Skin by Jeaniene Frost it was a decent quick little read. Now I'm working on The Rose Garden by Susanna Kearsley I love this author. She is by far my favorite non PNR author. Her books suck you in.

P.A. Lupton (palupton) | 909 comments I think a bunch of us will be reading Vlad's story when it's out. I know I will drop whatever I'm reading and start it about 2 seconds after I get it. My husband and kids have already been warned to stay far away from me on th e26th because that and Kissin' Tell (Rough Riders, #13) by Lorelei James is out on the same day. i'll be reading Once Burned first then straight into the other. I may even skip sleeping. LOL

Michelle Tempted By Books (michelletemptedbybooks) | 195 comments Who knew summer vacation would make me more busy?

I am in the middle of several books. I finished Kitty and the Midnight Hour (Kitty Norville, #1) by Carrie Vaughn so I have started Kitty Goes to Washington (Kitty Norville, #2) by Carrie Vaughn . I also finished Touch the Dark (Cassandra Palmer, #1) by Karen Chance , it was OK. I don't have the rest of the series yet so I am waiting on that one until after Kitty. I am also reading Breathe A Ghost Story by Cliff McNish with my daughter, we read a couple chapters a day. Incidentally I am reading a Magic Treehouse book with my son. lol Lastly I started both The Mane Event (Pride, #1) by Shelly Laurenston and What a Dragon Should Know (Dragon Kin, #3) by G.A. Aiken .

This was one of those cliff-hangers that I love! It's driving me crazy though waiting to see what's happened to everyone. I mean really. I better go check the old buddy read thread.

Oh, come on. It's not THAT bad. I'm sure we've all read a lot worse. It just suffers in comparison to the rest of the series. I think two books in a row without shifters as a main character was the real problem. We want our cats and wolves, darn it!

Have you read Pamela Clare? Her I-Team series is the only 'romantic suspense' I've read so far, but I've really enjoyed the first two books. The first has some moments of extreme hilarity: Extreme Exposure (I-Team, #1) by Pamela Clare


message 24312: by Christine (new)

Christine | 1127 comments I am really loving Touched by an Alien (Katherine "Kitty" Katt, #1) by Gini Koch . I'm about halfway through and it reminds me a little of First Grave on the Right (Charley Davidson, #1) by Darynda Jones : nearly over the top humor that has you laughing out loud at times. But Kitty is a strong, confident woman without some of Charlie's issues, so it's a different brand of humor.

Ya, but we'll need a thread where we can spill spoilers because I expect to be done it in a few hours. LOL That's a do not go to bed book.

Probably, she sometimes crosses the characters over and it could give away a spoiler.

Both books! I did not realize. I will definitely read Vlad's story first. I have been waiting so long. The cover is so beautiful. It is exactly the way I pictured him. Cannot wait to read Tell's story too. It is going to be so good.

LilMisGrayBrisk | 502 comments I finished A Bloody Good Secret (Secret McQueen, #2) by Sierra Dean and Secret Santa (Secret McQueen #2.5) by Sierra Dean is next. I like this series, though I can't say I enjoy her relationship with the werewolves that much. I don't feel like they are fleshed out enough.

I'll start a thread over in the Buddy REads section. Is everyone okay with the two part format (chapters 1-10 chapters 10 - end formatt. And spoilers will be okay as long as there is warning???

It's taken awhile but I'm getting into Bonds of Justice (Psy-Changeling, #8) by Nalini Singh now. I will admit though I stopped and read another book and then continued.

That was my thought P.A. I stopped joining group reads as you all read in fast forward mode while I read snail like lol so I still read the posts but I wait til I have finished. It's the only reason I haven't really jumped on the group reads stuff but I will try my hardest & have found I am getting faster ;)

So disappointed in this book, I think the main characters are just not interesting.

Hope the next one is better.

Katya | 645 comments I have been reading books with my latest kick-shifters....but honestly, I really don't love them as much as I enjoy other PNR. I think it is that I just haven't found the right ones. The romance in them just pales compared to a good vampire romance. Is it me? or the books I have chosen?

You know shifters just don't do it for me. There is nothing attractive to me about having your bones realigned into an animal. I've always preferred vamp stories to shifter stories.

Glancing through your shifters catagory I'd say it's your selection, which seemed more erotica. Nothing wrong with that except the storyline is generally not as strong.. I tend to prefer a good shifter book over the vamps. A good example would be the Kate Danials series....

On her first day in a new town, Scarlett Hanson accidently observes a handsome stranger standing over what could be a dead body.

When Scarlett awakes, nothing will ever be the same again. It is a challenge to cope with her new life as unknown beings hunt her down for the threat she possesses. She finds she is being pulled into a legend... One of monsters with sedated hunger, beautiful creatures that want to steal souls and humanities only hope is for Daemons to save them from it all. An unlikely event that is almost too horrible to believe, but the worst part is that it all has to do with her. Can she come to terms with what she is before The Fallen finds her first?
