What else are you reading? (June 2010 - May 2013) *closed*
The last m/f book I read was Ceremony in Death, last week, I need a Roarke fix now and then. The next will be Lover Unleashed, vampires, yum!
Bella wrote: "So any1 reading any M/F right now?"Yep, I'm reading Dark Desires After Dusk by Kresley Cole right now and afterwards I'll finish Wolf at the Door by Christine Warren. Have been reading almost only m/m for a while, and I need a break from it, so I'm switching between the 2 genres.

What's it about? Sounds like bdsm though =[

Good choice Arzu :D I guess I should take a break too; because I'm getting bored so definitely in need of some change :D
I read tons of m/f. Mostly PNR and UF! Love Lara Adrien and Kresley Cole and Sherrilyn Kenyon and Karen Marie Moning and Richelle Mead and Gena Showalter and Larissa Ione Patricia Briggs etc

I'm sure there are more but I'm still half asleep and those are all that came to mind lol. I just finished Angels' Blood yesterday

Has anyone read Stacia Kane's Downside Ghosts series?? Or her Megan Chase series? Both are really good
Heather C wrote: "Has anyone read Stacia Kane's Downside Ghosts series?? Or her Megan Chase series?

I'm anxious to see the reviews on the next Black Dagger Brotherhood book before I invest in it. I keep thinking the series may be due to go down hill, but I hope I'm wrong. Anybody who saw Dane's review of Dark Lover, the first in the the series, Ignore it!!! I gave it five stars.

Ah.. I read it... I love gay wedding-themed stories. It was not too great but it was a light moderately enjoyable read

Lmao. I've already read all of Ward's books, even the Fallen Angels spin off series. I already have the new one pre-ordered. The Downside Ghosts series is different from anything I've ever read. Its post-apocalyptic where ghosts have risen and killed like 60% of earths population. I must warn you that the MC is a drug addict. Very interesting world Kane has created.

I plan to read A Vintage Affair someday, but I'm not a drinker either, so any references to wine will be lost on me as well. But that's what happens almost no matter what you write about. Some people will get it, and others won't.

God give me some hot paranormal shifters!! :)

Bella wrote: "So any1 reading any M/F right now?"At the moment I'm reading
Here Comes the Groom by Karina Bliss. I really liked What the Librarian Did, and I heard that Groom was good, so I jumped on it. Not loving it. It's friends to lovers, which is normally a theme I love, but this one isn't doing it for me. At 60 pages in (on a 180 pg book) there's no romantic tension at all. Not good.
I haven't read the review of Dark Lover, but I know I didn't particularly care for the book. I continued with the series because I wanted to read Zsadist's book, and really liked books 2 and 3. (Rhage and Zsadist) The rest of the series has been a little meh for me. At this point I'm a couple books behind; I think the last one I read was Phury's book, which was pretty bad IMO. I've got Rehvenge's book (Yes, I know, Spell Check. It's not my fault.) in the TBR, which I will probably get around to eventually. I'm not sure if I'll read beyond that.
The most recent m/m books I've read are Black Gold and Bareback. I grabbed Black Gold because for some reason I'm really into rockers right now. Plus, have you see the gorgeous cover? (Yes, I'm shallow.) It was OK, but awfully talky. I liked Jett for the most part, but Goldie seemed uncomfortably young sometimes. Bareback just about broke my heart. And I could have done with a little less sex. (Something I very rarely say.) But overall an excellent read.
I can't have alcohol either, and wasnt' really a wine drinker when I could, so wine references in any book are pretty well lost on me. I got the point with the Arbor Mist in Strawberries for Dessert, but that's about it. So the wine references in A Vintage Affair will probably fly right by me. But I survived A Discovery of Witches, which was written by a wine blogger for cripes sake, so I think I'll get through AVA when the time comes.
I was hooked also bc I really wanted to read Zhadist's (sp?) book too. But now it seems that every book I read in the BDB series, I enjoy more of the secondary characters plot and not the main characters. And since the secondary characters are usually the main characters in the next book, I get sucked into reading it. I agree that Phury's book was horrible. There wasn't even any romance in it!

Heather C wrote: "this is my 1st book by her too! Elena didn't bother me at all.
I loved Fever!"
I think my problem with Elena is along the lines of...'Why are you fighting the super hot archangel that wants to get it on with you silly silly woman?' :) But other than that, I'm liking the ladies in this book. I like Sara too.
Ohhh and Fever...I still get goose bumps when I think of Mr. Barrons :)

Dirty and yummy! LOL I didn't like NS's psy series at all, but love the archangels. I'm still waiting (patiently) for V and Butch to ditch the females and get it on! LOL

At this moment I'm reading a m/m Chasing Smoke But... a little over a week ago I finished a paranormalTaken by Midnight. I think it was book eight in the series and very good as always with Lara Adrian. I have about half a dozen m/f paranormal series I follow.
For about two years I inhaled historical romances from all the top authors. I think I read 28 by Lisa Kleypas alone, but now I've replaced those with m/m and not looking back. :)
