She does doesn't she? I was worried they might have changed the narrator after Play of Passion, which was the last one I listened to in the series
Really? I found that audiobooks are good for rereading books... It might be the opposite for you then :D? When you reread it, you actually read it? There are cool little formats (email formats etc) and one or two pictured (like Kaleb's star) in the books so you should check it out one day :)
Just finished listening to
romance/suspense on audio. Erotic thriller but went wonky at the end.

Actor/narrator can bring out things I missed. Amazon "whispersync" allows me to get narration from audible at a discount. I can switch back and forth from Kindle/audible or listen to book later. Very cool.

I have several ebooks, but I haven't opened them on principle. I do enjoy listening to these books. I am curious if there are nice pictures in them or whether I will have to buy MMPB or even hardcovers. Usually I buy paper books just for the autographs from authors - the shipment to my country is a rip off.
could not finish
. I really dont like these books where the man is toxic and the woman just doesnt have the strength to know it when he is in the room.Started
I'm reading Troy fall of kings, the last book in the Troy series.... Great books :)
Finished reading
- loved it! Started reading

I think just the main difference in the audiobooks is that you can't properly 'see' the email conversations, journal entries, etc.
I'm reading A Land More Kind Than Home, not paranormal romance, but gripping nevertheless... besides a girl's gotta expand her boundaries at some point. http://www.bing.com/th?id=AIQOCpu4wsg...

, hot and exciting plot but lack chemistry???Reading
Talking to a friend yesterday about Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden series Wizard for Hire I've always been wary of starting it because people seem to get addicted :) But seriously thinking to start 2015 with this series.Currently re-reading
Love that series!
I absolutely LOVE Harry Dresden! Seriously, you won't be disappointed. Very strong characters up front, some strong women, too. But 1st person POV throughout - of course it is Harry's POV... a guy I didn't mind having in my head. Love to talk with you about the last couple of books when you get there! #cantgowrong
Awesome, Sharon :) 2015 will be my Harry Dresden year!
Another Dresden lover here. Got hooked on the TV show and then went to the books after it was cancelled.Reading
and loving it. Now if only my kid would stop interrupting me. ;)
Love Harry. There isn't anyone else like him. It is very addictive but its a good addiction
I don't think Harry's TV show made it to Australia ... situation normal! You've all convinced me though. I'll start the series in Jan :)

Found it hauntingly beautiful
OOoh, more good reads! I've not heard of Daughter of the Forest - MUST TRY! Also, looking forward to The Iron Duke!
I just finished
Burn for Me from Ilona Andrews. I really liked it. I have now officially have read everything they have published. I need something on par and I can't find it. Help.
Danielle. Please tell me you have read Karen Marie Moning's fever series

Yes I read it. I liked it. I didn't love it. I wouldn't say is is on par with the Kate Daniels series but it is much better than the crap I have been checking out from kindle unlimited.

A bit zanier, but seriously imaginative and fun.
ssince my last post i've read
which was awesome. interesting take on steampunk cross Asian culture.plus the main character is great.
Im currently reading
and so far i am not a fan. i was for about 10% mid way through the book. before and after that 10% has not been great. theres many typing errors, grammar errors, name errors. ect. plus the main characters is this shitty 'almost man' wo's constantly trowing a tantrum and killing people because stuff didnt go his way. he's pretty much a bully with magical powers.the magic powers and the world are pretty cool. only good thing about the book so far.
Reading
All of the books in this series seem to go really fast... Love them all :)
Just finished and enjoyed
Going to start
Dee, I'm reading
too. Loving it! And I really like "Serpents Shadow" by Mercedes Lackey in that series.
I didn't get very far with, Light my Fire,last night but it's always good to go to bed with a laugh. Mercedes Lackey, has always been one of my favorite authors.
Finished reading
have to say i was not very impressed with it. the main character is absolutely terrible in pretty much all ways. totally unlikable. i dont think it was edited at all. the writer has potential though, being that i still managed to finish the book even after all the elements i disliked. magic was awesome.currently reading
so far it hasnt been bad. i like the main character, and feel sad for her, she has had terrible luck in life. about to start reading from her 'partners' POV. not really looking forward to that. i dont want to feel sympathetic towards him in anyway..... who knows maybe i'll end up disliking him even more?
I am reading Golden dynasty.I honestly not enjoying it because it portrays rape/forceful seduction as if it's 'okay'.I hate Lahn who is so dominent. 35year old Circe acts like immature 16year old.
Finished
and I had to struggle through some parts of it, but there were parts that are so sweet and the secondary romance is quite charming, so I still managed to finish it quickly :)Reading the novellas in
between books so I don't have to be out of the Psy Changeling world while waiting for
... I can read
soon! Can't wait!Starting
Love Kristen Ashley!
Finished listening to
- apparently teens rule and save the Earth! And only them. Going to start listening to
.
I just finished reading Dead as a doornail by Charlaine Harris. Its the fifth book in the Sookie Stackhouse series.
Just finished
. I seriously love this series, it's such an enjoyable easy read and Adam is the start of many fantasties :P
Finished reading
and decided to read something nice
I have been LOVING the new book by Wen Spencer that she's posting as she writes it on Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/wen.spencer I think it's called Black Wolves and it's about an adolescent werewolf that was adopted by norms and only recently discovered his werewolf half-brother and cousin - the only blood relatives he has left. It's SO interesting what she's done with the werewolf trope. Early adolescent shifts (the first time a were can shift) are often shifts to a PUPPY wolf. SOO cute. And that's not the only interesting twist. Try it out - free for now!
It's been a really long time since I commented on a post, but here are the books I've read in the last couple of months:

Are the audiobooks still narrated by Angela Dawe? "
Yes they are! She does a great job narrating them!!! I haven't actually "read" any of the books in the series, I listened to all of them.
