I started reading The Vampire Files: Vol 1 by P. N. Elrod. It contains the first three books of that series. So far, I'm loving it. I needed to read something more up beat...yes, vampires are up beat to me. :) I'd read a little of this horror book last night, and was actually a little creeped out.
Finished
last night. Not only was it very good, but it was an easy read thanks to short chapters (I love short chapters).Up next is
. I've had it on my shelf for a while now. Hope it's as interesting as it looks.

Jen let me know how Red is I brought it on a whim and it still sits on my bookshelf.
Oh, man. I finished Succubus Dreams last night and damn near threw the book across the room. The breakup scene crushed me, and I kept reading hoping it would turn around. Just gut-wrenching. Between that and the "love fades" comment in Spirit Bound, Richelle Mead can really write a heartbreaking scene. I love her for it, but it's intense.I was still upset enough to decide I needed to blog about it. LOL. The new post? "Richelle Mead knows how to break my heart."
Finished Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia - I loved it! Starting the anthology Must Love Hellhounds by Charlaine Harris, Ilona Andrews, etc today. I'm looking forward to this one even though I usually don't care for anthologies.
Also, I'm almost done listening to Storm Prey by John Sandford. I have about two more discs to go. This is a good entry in the Prey series. :)
I am reading Small Favor and Burning Alive. I will definately finish 'Small Favor', not too sure about 'Burning Alive'.

I am glad to hear that Storm Prey is good. I am hoping to get a copy soon.

I also loved BEAUTIFUL CREATURES, tho it seems to have gotten mixed reviews.
Just finished
. Not sure what I'll start next, since I put the next two Dresden books on July's reading challenge. Hmmm, decisions, decisions...
I needed a breather book after Succubus Dreams, so I started
last night. After a few chapters I started to get into it -- actually, if my husband hadn't interrupted I probably would have devoured the whole thing. Anyone read the Morganville Vampire series? Thoughts? Suggestions?
I liked
. I thought it was cute and has different take on vamps.Very easy read, let me know if you like it.
I love the Morganville books! They are a quick easy read where you are always rooting for the "kids".

I went ahead and started Dresden #5, so I'll have to modify next month's reading challenge. Just couldn't wait to start that one. :P
I just finished
which is a memoir of the author's experiences as a Marine in the Pacific in World War II. (He was one of the three men who were focused on in the amazing HBO series "The Pacific.") I enjoyed it, as much as one can enjoy a true war story, but now I need something completely different.So I'm reading

"I like the Darkfever series but I hate her cliff hanger endings I decided to quit until the last book comes out. I hope you enjoy it!
Bad reading week nothing is satisfying me and I have no idea what to read next.
is just not what I was expecting.
is rather bland I cannot get into it.
I am reading Beautiful Creatures and I continue to read Small Favor. I am listening to The Wish List.
Reading Fever Crumb, Eternal, and Fire Study also listening to The Graveyard Book on my way to and from work. Im actually thinking about throwing another book in the mix.
Finished
last night. It's largely world building, but I bought a copy that was a combo of books 1 and 2. As I flowed into
I understood why so many of you praised the Morganville Vampires series. I'm halfway through book 2 and it's got me hooked. They're quick, easy reads -- a nice change of pace from some of the darker stuff I've picked up lately. I'm trying to decide what will be next: The Dead-Tossed Waves or Catching Fire

Enjoying it a lot so far. Cliffhangers are aweful indeed, too bad I cant get the next books for awhile >.< Ah well guess Ill just have to dive into other series to tide me over till I can buy the others ^^
Reading Sookie #4 and If I Stay and just bought City of bones and hope to start that when I'm cought up on the Sookie series.

Melodie,
is very good. I also have Sledge's
and I'll be reading it soon. But right now I'm reading the not at all urban fantasy
about a man with four wives and 28 children who's going through a midlife crisis...
was a sweet and funny YA UF palate cleanser.And I loved "The Pacific" so much that I must get "Band of Brothers," which I don't believe I've seen.

I'll second that. Let's all say it together: shower scene.

I had to give up the first and will not be reading the second. The reasons, well here is my review.
Have to give this one up as the main character keeps pissing me off. Her husband is cheating on her, she realizes as she walks into their apartment and then she goes and has sex with her. He just keeps treating her like treating her like crap and she stands there and takes it. I can't stand people like this, in real life or on a book. This one is just not for me.
