[Grace]

Just finished by Karen Chance. Really good.
I'm going buy the Cassandra Clare series

[Darcy]

Here are the next ones that are up for me.

, just got this one in the mail today,

[Julia]

I just finished Naamah's Curse and loved it.
I have a haul from the library:The Help, Hero-Type, The Prince of Mist, By the Time You Read This, I'll Be Dead, When You Reach Me, Wolverine: Worst Day Ever, Goth Girl Rising, If I Stay and Life As We Knew It.

[Michael]

I just abandoned Would-Be Witch . Disliked it very much.. Tammy Jo is one of the worst heroine's I've encountered in Urban fantasy :(

currently reading The Well of Ascension (Mistborn, #2), it's an epic fantasy and kinda long one at that.. :)

Oh man that blows I have just ordered it from the library.
Oh well perhaps I will find it entertaining.

Perhaps you will. At least mostly people had good things to say about it,

Hey Dawn,

I'd give it a try. Both my mom & I really liked it. In fact I read the second book right a way, which is a rarity for me.

I liked this one. She was ditzy, but it was a good way, kind of like Stephanie Plum if you read those books. I did think the second book was better than the first.

[Dawn]

Grateful it is a library book because if I dislike it I have not lost a thing :-)

[Paula]

I am reading The Alchemyst.

[Jason]

I just finished by Stacia Kane

I am almost finished also by Stacia Kane.

Next trip to the bookstore I will be picking up by, you guessed it, Stacia Kane.

[Michael]

Huh.. Perhaps I should move one of her books to my to-read shortlist to check out soon.

[Jason]

Michael wrote: "Huh.. Perhaps I should move one of her books to my to-read shortlist to check out soon."

I wasn't sure I would like it at first. It took a little bit to get past a drug-addicted heroine and some of the "Downside" speech. But once I got used to that it turned out to be an excellent book, in my opinion.

I am reading it now and I am having a really hard time wanting to read it. I really don't care for it, so I hope it gets better. I am only 1/4 of the way through.

I liked the Mistborn series. I think I liked the first the best though. Sanderson is great for throwing his readers, I love it.

I'm also almost finished with and just starting a reread of .

[Crissa]

Finished ...soo good! Starting . Hope this series is a good one!

This first book was the harder to read of the two books I've read so far. There is a lot of character intro and set-up in the first book. The second book moves along at a better pace. With the familiarity of the characters now built by the first book, I think it allowed the author to focus more on the story.

Hopefully it doesn't totally lose you before you get further in.

[Paula]

I'm now reading The Magician. The reading is going a little slowly. I think that there's a bit too much rehashing of the previous book. My favorite character is Scatty which is strange 'cause I don't like vampires as a general rule. Scatty isn't the blood sucking kind and she is sweet and loyal to her friends. She's also called The Warrior and does the name proud.

I finished it, but the drug use really turned me off. It's not that I don't like any books with drug use, because some really great books deal with it, but I didn't like the way it was done in this one. It just wasn't for me unfortunately.

I did really like Spider's Bite, so that's one I where I will be reading the next one.

Just started .

[Isamlq]

Has anyone read Michael Grant's Gone (etc..) does it qualify as UF and is it any good? thanks all.. :)

[Dija]

Hi Crissa ~

I hope you like A Rush of Wings (#1 Maker's Song UF series). It knocked my socks off & I read it twice, which is rare for me.

I finally decided to pick up Soulless (#1 Parasol Protectorate) after seeing so many rave reviews. I began reading it while waiting for a friend at a medical clinic and had a very hard time not bursting into hysterical laughter on every page!!

I could be thinking of something else, but I think it is YA or dystopian (if dystopian is not a genre it should be).

[Donna]

I'm new to the group. Was invited by one of your members. Enjoy a number of genres. Urban fantasy has really taken off in the past few years so will enjoy recommendations. Currently reading Jennifer Crusie's MAYBE THIS TIME.

I agree; feel it's his best yet. Tried to drag the ending out but sooner or later had to turn that last page..sigh. His next book will be the most anticipated yet!

[Lisa M]

Finished . I'm starting next.

[Irene]

just started
the series had a slow start but each book is better than the one before.
I'm really liking book three.

[Kasia]

I see that everyone's reading something great! I couldn't wait any longer and had to read another Kimmy H. Her books are so awesome, this is my favorite Urban Fantasy series

[Isamlq]

Just finished DP: to start either the Night Huntress series or Fever series.. cant make up my mind...

[Darcy]

I am reading and then will read

[Carrie (Care)]

NIGHT HUNTRESS!!! Fever is good, but NH is the best. :D

[Isamlq]

Ive heard good things about both of them! :) Any suggestions for a good stand-alone YA-UF? Thanks!

[Darcy]

How about Unwind, it was one of the best books I have read this year.

[Carrie (Care)]

Heather pointed out that it isn't going to be a stand alone anymore. It's listed as Unwind #1 now.

[Darcy]

I guess now that I think about it, I did hear that. Still, a great book!

[Isamlq]

Unwind is on my TBR (I think)... :)
I just need a novel that I can start then finish without wondering if the author's going to add more later... I've been reading all these series n-o-n-s-t-o-p lately... :)
thanks again!

[Michelle]

I'm currently reading The Hunger Games which is the 1st book in a series by Suzanne Collins. This book has me completely engaged in the story of a very determined young girl who has had to rely on her survival skills alone. She ends up taking the place of her young sister, who she loves, in the Hunger Games because she knows that any child picked for the games could face death. The story takes place in a future where the government dictates the rules and keeps the cities segregated from each other so the people cannot revolt. The Hunger Games was a sadistic event the government created to keep the people in line. The book is great so far--I can't wait to read the other books in the series.

[Dija]

Just finished and I'm glad I gave this series another chance. Now reading

I just finished that one last week and loved it too! What a great book.

[Julia]

Theresa & Sabrina Fair,
Thanks for commenting on The Help, I'm sometimes hesistant to mention books that I'm reading that are far out of the urban fantasy realm...

I just finished The Road and boy is it bleak, we aren't told what happened that made the world and most of its people die, but I'm glad I read it.

Next up is The Prince of Mist.

[Jency]

I am reading . I just finished The Darkest Powers series by Kelley Armstrong The Reckoning. I really liked it. I may read Fallen next. The second book in this series Torment has just come out. Would you recommend it?

[MsBeaglely]

I Finished while on vacation and I started reading . I've had it on my bookshelf for years. I hope it's a good one.
