I’m reading A Mermaid's Kiss
, which I’m enjoying more than I thought. It’s been on my tbr pile since 2009.I’m listening to The Vines
. I’m not enjoying this. I’m not into the characters or story and the narrator isn’t that great.
I finished The Vines
and it never did get better. This is the worst book I read/listened to this year.I just started listening to These Violent Delights
.

These Violent Delights is on my tbr. I'm in the middle of Ninth House and Glass Sword at the moment though.

A Mermaid's Kiss took me by surprise too when I first read it.

Downside Ghosts was an excellent series. The catch, though, is that Stacia Kane has been promising the 6th book since 2012. In the past few years she has said she is working on it. It's a long and dubious wait at this point.

It sucks how long the wait is.
I dnf’d
at 27%. I couldn’t get into the story nor the characters. I listened to Lucky Suit
. It was really short but cute.I’m currently reading Tangled

Agreed. I just did a quick search and I think George R. R. Martin's last book in A Song of Ice and Fire was released in 2011. Kane is giving him a run for his money. At least in the waiting game.

Good to know! I guess I’ll slow down my journey through that series

Finished The Dead of the Night (Tomorrow #2) by John Marsden About to start The Solstice Countdown (SPI Files) by Lisa Shearin or The Wicked King (The Folk of the Air #2) by Holly Black
Listening Armed & Magical (Raine Benares, #2) by Lisa Shearin
I'm in a weird book rut. So I'm re-reading
.looking through what you guys are currently reading and hoping I find something new and fun to read.🤞🏻
I finished The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms
. I didn’t like it.I’m currently re-reading Branded by Fire
This one is a ongoing serial that I'm enjoying. It's MM PNR with a cursed prince. Where the Wind Stays.Another M/M animated serial PNR & I can't wait for each installment of this one. It's thrilling. The Black Mirror
I'm reading this a little at the time but sort of saving it for the beach or pool to be in the mood. Seduced by the Sea Lord.
Absolutely, loving this one so far, but it's not urban romance or PNR: In the Middle of Somewhere
I recommend Bonds of Magic #1 by Jaffe Kennedy.It says it's a dark romance but it isn't. Everything is consensual.
Basically wizards have human familiars that amplify their power. But those familiars are basically slaves.
The main character is from a large and wealthy wizard family. All are disappointed she turns out to be a familiar since that means she will leave and marry a wizard from a different family.
The world building details were interesting and I liked both the hero and heroine.
Book 2 is scheduled for release in July 2021. No cliffhanger ending.
]I just finished an underdog writer called Charisma Alarie. Her book is called ALLURENATRIX and it's on amazon kindle for little money. It's WILD ... But good.
I just started “Grimoires and Where to Find Them” by Honor Raconteur. I love her writing. I believe this is the fifth book in the series. I highly recommend if you are tired of the same old story lines.
I enjoyed Master Shark's Mate by Zoe Chant. It has an older heroine with gray hair who is a grandmother. And a shark is her fated mate. She is a coyote shifter. There was a lot of humor too.
I finished Branded by Fire
. It was my least favorite of these re-reads, though I did like Mercy and Riley as a couple. I have a little over an hour left of Legendborn
. It hasn’t been great for the most part, but it’s better at this point.
I've had a pretty good reading week...Finished
And now I'm nearly finished with
... I had only intended to read the 1st one, but got sucked in and had to read them all....
I dnf’d Along Came Trouble
at 34% and finished The Third Victim
I’m currently re-reading Blaze of Memory
and almost done listening to The Bridge Kingdom
