Carolyn, I just put book number 3 Tempest Legacy, on hold at my library. I'm hoping I can get it over the next week as I'm in position one. Book 2 was pretty decent and had alot of action in it. I hope you enjoy them as well!

Maggie, I don't know if you have a blog etc, or if you review books as you go, but Netgalley.com is where most of the people I know got the book from. The publishers like to see that you have a blog, or rate books on goodreads, amazon, librarything, etc.



I love her series, that's so nice to hear about her being so wonderful with the fans :)

Now reading a fiction book, The Financial Lives of the Poets by Jess Walter.


I am about to start reading




Starting

How do you like the Demon Slayers series?"
Christen, I'm not hating it that's for sure. I love Pirate, Lizzie's terrier, and the biker witches are pretty funny as well. I can either take, or leave the whole Dimitri and Lizzie romance link however.

Jim is hilarious too!


Bed side book-

Those covers are silly but I'm going to read them anyways, all ready have the 1st :)






Next up:






But I'm now listennig to Summer Knight read by James Marsters and I love it! Thanks to those who talked about this audiobook and made me want to try it!



Alanna I've read the first two books of the Demonica Series and I can't WAIT to read the next one!
On other news: I am currently reading


E-book/Kindle
We meet and learn about Zara, the centuries old vampire queen, by reading her diary entries. Zara is fun, light-hearted and extremely self-absorbed.
I enjoyed the new and unique aspects of the paranormal/vampire aspects -- I haven't read anything like these aspects before. The story is sensual, but not erotic, or a romance.
I liked the fun, quick read from author Lynda Hilburn, who wrote one of my all-time favorite reads, The Vampire Shrink, #1 Kismet Knight. Kismet is a psychologist in Denver, Colorado who suddenly encounters patients who believe there are vampires in the area. Deaveraux (sp?) is way high on my list of Most Lusted After Vampires in fiction! This is a FABULOUS book. I can't imagine why it's not more widely read. People I've recommended it to have loved it (5 star ratings) as well.




Just made a trip to the Border's closing near me. UF and YA is 30% off and romance is 40% right now. Bought





I am starting Black Magic Sanction and still reading Behemoth.


Before that it was The Magicians, which is not for me... Neither was A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Future: Life Lessons from a High School Dropout, but it's much shorter. River Marked I loved. A Business of Ferrets wasn't my thing. Flygirl is pretty good. Discord's Apple is a neat combination of some pretty disparate elements.
Next up might be: Leaving Mother Lake: A Girlhood at the Edge of the World, Forge, Chalice, Play Dead, A Hundred Words for Hate, The Radleys, To Kill a Mockingbird, Unfallen Dead, Except the Queen, Torn.

World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War by Max Brooks has arrived from the library, my last book TBR to complete the challenge.
Now reading a non-fiction How I Killed Pluto and Why It Had It Coming by CalTech astronomer Mike Brown. He's the scientist responsible for stripping Pluto of its "planet" classification *cry*. I'm curious as to how this happened and why ... Pluto was my favorite planet, way out in last place ... and as a dog lover, always reminded me of Disney's goofy dog character Pluto.









Be sure to post your thoughts. I've put this in my to read file, but someone advised they thought Jim Butcher was better. I tried the first three of the Dresden files and was not enamored of them. They're okay but I tired of the hero being beat up, barely functioning and exhausted and dragging himself from one encounter to the next throughout the book. Who knows, I might like Simon Green better.
