3/3

I forgot to update after I finished these! They were all done by the first week & they were all FABULOUS.

1. September: Sin Undone by Larissa Ione 5 stars-this was a great read. Bittersweet because it's the end of the series, but it introduced the next series really well & left me with a huge smile on my face! Con is sex on a stick, loved him!

2. Birthday: Club Dead by Charlaine Harris (Happy Birthday, Natalie!) 3 stars, it was pretty good & I loved Alcide but I think I liked the next one even better.

7. Library Card Sign-up Month: My Soul to Keep by Rachel Vincent (I've had it out on my card since it came out & need to finish it) 4.5 stars, I don't know what took me so damn long to read this one, it was so good! Definitely a better sequel then the 2nd one, was happy that Kaylee finally stood her ground & grew up a bit in this one.
