Congrats on almost being done! Btw, you probably got a hell of alot farther in The Hollow than I did. I made it to page 10 before I threw it at the wall in disgust. It does give me hope that if this piece of crap can be published, then I could too. Kinda like the whole Tiger Woods scandal. I don't want him but I love knowing if I did, I could have him in all his skanky glory.

6/10

1. Changeless (Parasol Protectorate, #2) by Gail Carriger Review
Lots more steampunk, still funny, CRAZY ending. 4 stars.
2. Succubus Shadows (Georgina Kincaid, #5) by Richelle Mead Review
I'm totally irritated with this series. I have no respect for Georgina, and I hate how painfully obvious the series resolution seems to be. 3 stars.
3. Mercy Thompson: Homecoming (Mercedes Thompson, prequel) by Patricia Briggs Review
I liked the story and most of the artwork, but their renditions of Mercy did nothing for me. 3.5 stars.
4. Rosemary and Rue (October Daye, #1) by Seanan McGuire Review
Mediocre. This consists of Toby getting injured over and over, not following clues so much as having the answers fall into her lap. I like my heroines clever. Toby's not. 2.5 stars.
5. Some Girls Bite (Chicagoland Vampires, #1) by Chloe Neill
6. The Summoning (Darkest Powers, #1) by Kelley Armstrong
7. Vampire Academy (VA, #1) by Richelle Mead Review
I do not like Rose. I do not care what happens to the characters. I'm sorta hoping Strigoi take over the world. Evil FTW! 3 stars.
8. Blood Rites (Dresden Files, #6) by Jim Butcher
9. Grave Secret (Harper Connelly, #4) by Charlaine Harris
10. Defending Angels (Beaufort & Co., #1) by Mary Stanton Review
The fantasy elements are choppy, but the concept has a lot of potential. A blend of cozy mystery and the paranormal. 3.5 stars.

7/10 Complete
1. Sandman Slim by Richard Kadrey (NOW READING--and boy is this a good book!)
2. “Fire Raiser” (Spellbinder #2) Melanie Rawn
3 “Personal Demons” (Megan Chase #1) Stacia Kane ****(4-10-10) What a fun read. Fun, sexual tension, smokin sex scenes, and actully spooky in spots. Suspense too! I have the next right here and it is HARD not to dig in!
4 "Red Headed Stepchild" (Sabrina Kane #1) (4/21/10)***** I loved the way she tweaked the vampire/demon/mage/fairy mythos. Lilith is my patron goddess anyway so I couldnt help but be charmed. Cant wait to get my hands on next book!!
5 "Nightingales Lament" (Nightside #3) LOVED this book! **** (4/2/10) It was so snarky and imaginative. Think of a brothel you can go to and through dark magic, you can sleep with your favorite charicter from any fictional book or movie!! I would be there!
6 “Skin Game” (Skin #1) by Ava Grey (4/4/10)*** I was wanting a paranormal romance with heat and charicters I care enough to wanna be a voyer while they move towards getting together,--and some interesting paranormal stuff, and i got it here. Good first book to a new series. I will pick up the next.
7 “Deaths Mistress” (Dorina Basarab #2). By Karen Chance (4/25/10)**** Its been a while since I read book one of this series, but it picked right up and brought to speed right away. A good read, I like the evolution of Dorina and her lovelife, magical life and the pacing of the book. I remember now why I like Chances books.
8 “First Lord’s Fury” (Codex Alera #6) by Jim Butcher 4/18/10 *** I had a hard time finishing this one. It spent too much time on minutia of battle IMO. Still, I liked the ending.
9 “Bone Magic” (Sisters of the Moon #7) by Yasmine Galenorn
10 “Black Magic Sanction”(Rachel Morgan/The Hollows #8) by Kim Harrison **** (4-9-10) LOVED it. Pierce, Nick, Her elf, her demon, all of them.

7/10

1. Changeless (Parasol Protectorate, #2) by Gail Carriger Review
Lots more steampunk, still funny, CRAZY ending. 4 stars.
2. Succubus Shadows (Georgina Kincaid, #5) by Richelle Mead Review
I'm totally irritated with this series. I have no respect for Georgina, and I hate how painfully obvious the series resolution seems to be. 3 stars.
3. Mercy Thompson: Homecoming (Mercedes Thompson, prequel) by Patricia Briggs Review
I liked the story and most of the artwork, but their renditions of Mercy did nothing for me. 3.5 stars.
4. Rosemary and Rue (October Daye, #1) by Seanan McGuire Review
Mediocre. This consists of Toby getting injured over and over, not following clues so much as having the answers fall into her lap. I like my heroines clever. Toby's not. 2.5 stars.
5. Some Girls Bite (Chicagoland Vampires, #1) by Chloe Neill
6. The Summoning (Darkest Powers, #1) by Kelley Armstrong
7. Vampire Academy (VA, #1) by Richelle Mead Review
I do not like Rose. I do not care what happens to the characters. I'm sorta hoping Strigoi take over the world. Evil FTW! 3 stars.
8. Blood Rites (Dresden Files, #6) by Jim Butcher Review
I love Harry. I should have read this one sooner, since he's broken my mediocre-book slump! Lots of answers and plot twists in this one--and a psychotic lil puppy! 4 stars.
9. Grave Secret (Harper Connelly, #4) by Charlaine Harris
10. Defending Angels (Beaufort & Co., #1) by Mary Stanton Review
The fantasy elements are choppy, but the concept has a lot of potential. A blend of cozy mystery and the paranormal. 3.5 stars.

Congrats guys who just finished. :o) Now, take a deep breathe---hold it, hold it, hold it. Now release it. Stretch to the--oopps, sorry, got carried away there with excitement. :o)

Just stretch those reading muscles good and hard so that they are in shape for NEXT MONTHs event. :o)

Doesn't that burn feel SSSOOOO good when you stretch that reading muscle?

lol, ok, guess I'm getting a little punchy. I've been O.D.-ing on my new Nook. ONLY have like 450 or so books downloaded to it. Now to read, read, read. Altho I will admit--some of those are books that I've already read, and I'm thinking about getting rid of the "dead tree" (as Lady Oz calls it) versions of the books. Unless of course, they are autographed copies. Those I won't get rid of.
