Lisa M | 311 comments I finished Unholy Ghosts yesterday (loved it!). Now I'm starting Masques.

Unholy Ghosts (Downside Ghosts, #1) by Stacia Kane Masques (Sianim, #1; Aralorn, #1) by Patricia Briggs

MsBeaglely | 114 comments Finished up Dante's Girl (Kayla Steele, #1) by Natasha Rhodes . Can't say I was too impressed with it. Very misleading cover & a cringe-worthy ending.

Started reading Greywalker (Greywalker, #1) by Kat Richardson . Another book that I've had on my bookshelf forever. Keeping my fingers crossed that it's better than Dante's Girl.


message 703: by Julia (new)

Julia | 615 comments I finished this mostly delightful YA anthology a few days ago. Geektastic: Stories from the Nerd Herd Geektastic Stories from the Nerd Herd by Holly Black .

Now I'm reading and enjoying The Last Summer Of The Death Warriors by Francisco X. Stork The Last Summer Of The Death Warriors.

Can't wiat to see what you think of them. So far everyone seems disappionted with Mob Rules.

So jealous you'll be reading Blood Song!!

Well that doesn't bode well for Mob Rules. :( I am giving up on Blood Song, it just isn't for me. I love this author's Sazi series, but find their other books hit or miss.


Shera (Book Whispers) (sherabookwhispers) | 204 comments Eek! I like the Thrall books by them, but I don't like the Sazi ones.

You would probably like this one then, it reminded me more of the Thrall books.

That's what I was thinking. I'm making an online order for it while Borders has the buy 1 get 50% off sale.


message 710: by Kathyjacks (new)

Kathyjacks I just finished the Blue Blood series last week and am currently on Fragile Eternity (Wicked Lovely, #3) by Melissa Marr and I'm reading Mockingjay (Hunger Games, #3) by Suzanne Collins on my blackberry when I'm waiting somewhere , at the kids school , doctors office or wherever dragging a book along isn't convenient. I am a quick reader and will finish both of these this weekend and hopefully start the Wings series by Aprilynne Pike.


message 711: by Raven (new)

Raven Carluk (ravencorinncarluk) | 10 comments Sixty-One Nails Just started this, and it's pretty interesting. I had to start it when I wasn't distracted at work, because the writing style is a tad different, but now that I'm into it, I'm enjoying.


message 712: by Darcy (new)

Darcy (sunnytat462) | 822 comments I had a couple of duds in my last batch of books so finished fast. Next for me is

Venom (Elemental Assassin, #3) by Jennifer Estep Cruel Enchantment (Dark Magick #2) by Anya Bast and Crave (The Fallen Angels, #2) by J.R. Ward


message 713: by Paula (new)

Paula (pauldajo) I finished listening to Men of the Otherworld. Well written, though some of the story was hard to listen to. I also thought that parts of this story was manufactored to explain away the harshness of previous books. I did like Jaime and Jeremy's short sweet story.

I am now reading Bayou Moon and The Sorceress.

I finally bought Men of the Otherworld. Did you enjoy it over all, or was it a waste of time?


message 715: by Paula (new)

Paula (pauldajo) Not a waste of time, but there were some parts where some of the less savory characters got too rough with or talked nasty about women. I don't like that. Though, I think because I was listening to rather than reading the story that the negative impact was intensified. I did like the overall book. The story certainly put Clay in a better light.

Hmmm, that's good to know. I've never been much of a Clay fan.

I think the world is what I liked the best. It was so great! I thought the next 2 were just as good.


message 726: by Dawn (new)

Dawn (dawnv) | 367 comments Thanks Darcy I am trying not to look at the next two books fear of spoiler, but I am sure I will order them when I am done.

The world is really well written! I have to admit I love the horror element as well, the murder is so grizzly but yet I think the love story keeps it all balanced.

Paula (pauldajo) I finished listening to Living with the Dead. It's amazing how fast some people read! I feel a bit mentally challenged in comparison. Sigh. I continue to read Side Jobs: Stories From the Dresden Files and The Sorceress.


message 737: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (bexsi) I've Finished Mistral's Kiss (Meredith Gentry, #5) by Laurell K. Hamilton Mistral's Kiss and like the last book I was disappointed I have started the next in the series A Lick of Frost (Meredith Gentry, #6) by Laurell K. Hamilton A Lick of Frost and so hope its as good as the first three and not the last two.


message 738: by Julia (new)

Julia | 615 comments Day before yesterday I finished All Clear (All Clear, #2) by Connie Willis which is a great book but first read Blackout (All Clear, #1) by Connie Willis , which is also great.

Yesterday I finished Kin (The Good Neighbors, #1) by Holly Black , which is okay.

Now I'm reading Pegasus by Robin McKinley , an ARC from the publisher!

I like this series but I am still on Lord of Misrule (The Morganville Vampires, #5) by Rachel Caine . This series is not available in the library so I have to go buy it every time I finish one. I am slowly getting there.

message 745: by Becca (new)

Becca (goblinfan) | 215 comments Just started re-reading Dracula by Bram Stoker. I read it when I was about 14 or 15, but I doubt I could've appreciated it fully at that age. Plus, it's been so long since then that it'll almost be like reading it for the first time. I'm planning on watching the movie once I've finished the book.


message 746: by Julia (new)

Julia | 615 comments Becca,

I just finished Pegasus and I liked it a lot! I've reviewed it, if you're interested. (I review everything I read.)

Next up is Tales of the Otherworld perhaps just the novella "Beginnings," or if I rememeber it, just one story or short story before it's due tomorrow...
