Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments I finished Tempting the Beast by Lora Leigh. It may be a little extreme for some, but I found it to be interesting and a good start to a series; but I don't think I'll be reading this series back to back. I've read other books by her, but this was this was the first of her Breeds series that I've read. I'm moving on to The Diamond Slipper by Jane Feather.

Tempting the Beast (Breeds, #1) by Lora Leigh The Diamond Slipper (Charm Bracelet, Book 1) by Jane Feather

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments I'm placing The Diamond Slipper (Charm Bracelet, Book 1) by Jane Feather on hold because I just have to read Dead in the Family (Sookie Stackhouse, #10) by Charlaine Harris NOW!! I'm not sure if I'll get back to The Diamond Slipper, since I was struggling to get into it.

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments Work has been really busy this week, so I'm still working on Dead in the Family (Sookie Stackhouse, #10) by Charlaine Harris , but I'm hoping that I'll be able to finish it tonight.


message 207: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments Well, I did finish Dead in the Family (Sookie Stackhouse, #10) by Charlaine Harris . I thought is was just "ok", definitely not my favorite in the series. I'm moving on to Amazon Ink by Lori Devoti .

message 210: by Megan (new)

Megan | 1285 comments I finished Dead in the Family (Sookie Stackhouse, #10) by Charlaine Harris and thought it was pretty solid. Sookie did A LOT of thinking and recovering. I am now reading All I Want for Christmas Is a Vampire (Love At Stake, #5) by Kerrelyn Sparks and I'm LOVING it so far!!


message 211: by Kelley (new)

Kelley (shewolf0316) More like what am I NOT reading? I have so many going at various locations and in different formats I'm not sure I will remember them all. But I'll try. LOL

Bathroom Book 1 - Hot for the Holidays (Includes Breeds, #20; Mageverse, #9; Stormwalker, Prequel) by Lora Leigh

Bathroom Book 2 - The Cinderella Mission (Family Secrets) (Silhouette Intimate Moments, #1202) by Catherine Mann

Bathroom Book 3 - My Guardian Angel by Kay Hooper

Yes, THREE bathroom books. LOL I saw someone in anotehr group say that was how they started gleaning the book shelves now that they have an eReader and are trying to get rid of print books. I thought. "Duh, why haven't I done that?" I have two bathrooms at home and one bathroom at work (small building and only two women who use the ladies room) so a different book in each one.

eBook - Play Dead by Meryl Sawyer

Print - Chasing Shadows (Steeple Hill Love Inspired Suspense) by Terri Reed

Audio Book in Car - Testimony A Novel by Anita Shreve

Audio Book at Home - The Thrall's Tale by Judith Lindbergh

I *think* that's all of them currently...

Yowza! That sucks!! I never leave without a book in my purse. Sometimes I even read a few pages while I'm waiting at a stoplight!

That's must be how you read so fast! I'm a home hospice nurse, and sometimes, there are a few times during the day that I just stop to recharge. I'm kicking myself now for not keeping a book on me at ALL times.


message 216: by Soph - Lock&Key (new)

 Soph - Lock&Key | 16 comments I am reading Dear John by Nicholas Sparks and Saving Juliet by Suzanne Selfors


message 217: by Valorie (new)

Valorie  | 676 comments I just finished They Call Me Death by Missy Jane . It was pretty good. I would've liked more action and character background though. I'm now starting Naked Dragon (Works Like Magick, #1) by Annette Blair


message 218: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments I finished Amazon Ink by Lori Devoti . I liked it. I'll be starting The Missing by Shiloh Walker .

LOL Michelle. that's one of my big fears. Hence why I always have books just about everywhere. And with an eReader and with readers on my phone it's rare I am without.

Valorie  | 676 comments I finished Naked Dragon (Works Like Magick, #1) by Annette Blair and really enjoyed it. Cute, funny, & charming paranormal romance. I'm now reading Ashes of Midnight (Midnight Breed, #6) by Lara Adrian , god I love this series!!


message 223: by Michelle (last edited May 14, 2010 10:01PM) (new)

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments I finished The Missing by Shiloh Walker which I thought was pretty good overall. I'm starting Fade to Black (Black CATs, #1) by Leslie Parrish and Wicked Deeds on a Winter's Night (Immortals After Dark, #4) by Kresley Cole .


message 224: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments Well, I finished Wicked Deeds on a Winter's Night (Immortals After Dark, #4) by Kresley Cole . I thought is was pretty good. I liked the hero already from one of the other books in the series, so it was nice to read a book that focused on him.


message 225: by Megan (new)

Megan | 1285 comments I just finished Secret Life of a Vampire (Love at Stake, #6) by Kerrelyn Sparks which was AWESOME! So good that I want to pick up Forbidden Nights With a Vampire (Love at Stake, #7) by Kerrelyn Sparks right now! Hopefully I'll be finished with it before Spirit Bound (Vampire Academy, #5) by Richelle Mead comes out!!


message 226: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments I finshed Fade to Black (Black CATs, #1) by Leslie Parrish , which I thought was really good! I love it when an author can keep me guessing. I'll definitely read the next one in the series, but right now I'm starting Silver Borne (Mercedes Thompson, #5)  by Patricia Briggs .


message 227: by Michelle (last edited May 17, 2010 04:46PM) (new)

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments I just finished Nicholas (The Lords of Satyr, #1) by Elizabeth Amber by Elizbeth Amber. For whatever reason, I picked this one up and started reading it before I could actually start Silver Borne last night. This one definitely wasn't my cup of tea (gratuitos sex, no plot), and I doubt I'll be continuing with the Lords of Satyr series anytime soon.


message 228: by Megan (new)

Megan | 1285 comments I am putting Forbidden Nights With a Vampire (Love at Stake, #7) by Kerrelyn Sparks on hold for a short time while I read Spirit Bound (Vampire Academy, #5) by Richelle Mead !!!

Valorie  | 676 comments I'm halfway through 50 Ways to Hex Your Lover (Jazz Tremaine, #1) by Linda Wisdom and I'm really enjoying it.


message 234: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments I finshed Silver Borne (Mercedes Thompson, #5)  by Patricia Briggs . I thought it was good, but it wasn't my favorite in the series. I'm working on Fire Study (Study, #3) by Maria V. Snyder .


message 235: by Megan (last edited May 22, 2010 06:07PM) (new)

Megan | 1285 comments I finially finished Forbidden Nights With a Vampire (Love at Stake, #7) by Kerrelyn Sparks and thought it was a good solid read. I am now reading Without Reserve A Pride & Prejudice Variation by Abigail Reynolds (a Jane Austen P&P fanfic book) because I need a "palate cleanser."


message 236: by Valorie (new)

Valorie  | 676 comments I'm reading Big Bad Wolf (The Others, #8) by Christine Warren and loving it!


message 237: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments I finished reading Fire Study (Study, #3) by Maria V. Snyder , which I enjoyed, but not as much as the other books in the trilogy. I'm sorry that the Study Series has come to an end. I've started The Scarletti Curse by Christine Feehan .


message 238: by Kelley (new)

Kelley (shewolf0316) Have you read Maria's Glass books Michelle? The first two are out already and the third is out later this year. They are in order:
Storm Glass
Sea Glass
Spy Glass (coming later this year)

This series takes place in the Study world and Yelena even puts in a few appearances. But the focus of this series is Opal Cowan, who was a secondary character in the Study books.

No I haven't read the Glass series yet. I'll have to get a copy of Storm Glass, and soon! I love the world that the author has created. I really think Poison Study should be made into a movie!!

Valorie  | 676 comments I'm reading Love You to Death by Shannon K. Butcher and I'm really enjoying it!


message 243: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments I had to put The Scarletti Curse by Christine Feehan on hold. I read the first 100 pages and just didn't find the story interesting. It's probably because I'm not in the mood for a historical romance. I'm still woking on Hot Spell (Includes Demon World, #2; Breed Series, #6; The Guardians, #1) by Emma Holly , and plan on starting One Dark Night by Jaid Black .

I'm unemployed currently so I get a lot of time to read. I'm going back to school next month though so I won't be able to read as much! Boo Hoo!

Congrats on going back to school! Hopefully you'll be able to find a little time for some non-school related reading. I mean, who really needs to sleep? =D
