November - What are you reading?

[Amy ~Lover of Books~]

[Erin]

Read and it was a bit boring. It took awhile for the plot to get going. Now starting !!

[Laura]

I just finished "Open Season" by Linda Howard. A fan of mine LOOOOOOVES Howard and wanted me to try her so much she bought this book and mailed it to me. What a sweetheart!!! And it was a good one.

Now I am reading a "Secrets" anthology. OMG, I love these romantic erotica anthologies!! There are over 20 in the series, and I have read at least 10 of them. Almost every novella in these is good. If you read anthologies you know how rare that is. *wink*

Laura, I love Linda Howard as well, but who writes this "Secrets" anthology?

[Nikki ♥]

Currently reading .

[Laura]

Vanessa, looks like there are a few on GR. They are published by Red Sage Publishing and contain 4 novellas in each one. Some are by popular authors, and some are by unknown authors. But 95% of them are awesome! I have found some fab new authors and series to read this way.

This is a good one Secrets Volume 9

[Tammy]

I think I'm in a bit of a historical slump -- after reading Twice Tempted by a Rogue and giving it 5 stars (LOVED it) I haven't had any luck at all.

Tried to read Let Sleeping Rogues Lie and couldn't stand it -- don't think Sabrina Jeffries will be an author I'll be able to read.

Next up was One Touch of Scandal by Liz Carlyle. I'm not too sure about this one, but might try another by this author.

I'm interested to hear any opinions on either of these authors. Did I just pick bad books by good authors?

[Samantha]

just got done with now reading

I would say yes -- I love most of Liz Carlyle's books (haven't read the one you tried), but I'd start with [book:Never Lie to a Lady or Beauty Like the Night with LC... As far as Sabrina Jeffries, I quite liked most of her books (although they feel a little more simple..) I'd try In the Prince's Bed, The Pirate Lord or A Dangerous Love (kinda a Twelfth Night feel, everyone pretending to be someone else..) : now I haven't read SJ for a while, but I remember enjoying them:-) (haven't read the one you mentioned..)

Otherwise if you're looking for HR (don't know if you've read these), I loved Loretta Chase, Julie Garwood, Lisa Kleypas, Celeste Bradley or Teresa Medeiros... Practically all of their books are amazing!

[Tammy]

Thanks Melanie -- I have read some Chase, Garwood and Kleypas but haven't yet tried any Bradley or Medeiros.

I'm off to check some of those out!

My sentements exactly Samantha. I only liked Richard when Anita first met him at Circus of the Damed in Jean-Claudes bed nakey =) and after reading all the books in the series thus far I haven't changed my mind.and the killing dance ending was fantastic!

[Samantha]

Meme wrote: "Samantha wrote: "Meme wrote: "Samantha wrote: "just got done with now reading "

OMG Samantha! The Killing Dance ..."

Yeah that was the only time I liked him too was in Circus of the Damned because he seemed all cool, calm, and collect in that book, there after he became this goody goody "boy scout" and a worry wart, ICK nothing says turn off than an Alpha male, who asks like a worried mother.

LMAO! Richard's character would be so great if he didn't act like that. although, even if he wasn't such a worry wart he couldn't surpass my love for Jean-Claude =) that's why i love LKH's work cause her character development has me so involved in the story.

I agree 100% with you it's just like in the Merry Gentry series, I love Doyle then frost the rest are great but don't do nothing for me like those two do.

[colleen]

I'm reading Original Sin by Allison Brennan. My goodreads friends have rated it from one star to five stars. I wanted to see whay there was so much more difference than usual in their ratings.

[Megan]

i've only read bk #1 in the Meredith Gentry series and really liked it. i have bk# 2 at home. was Doyle one of the queens guards that hadn't been with a woman in like forever and was trying to get to Meredith to protect her? if that's him, he was my favorite too.

Can you let us know what you think of it? I have it at home and while I love AB's Romantic suspense/thrillers, I don't know whether or not to try this one..

I on chapter 9 now. So far it's nothing special. It mentions a lot of backstory that I'm having trouble keeping track of. I'll post again once I've finished it and let you know if it gets better.

Melanie, I finished Original Sin. I rated it 2.5 stars. It's the first book in the series but the characters are continually referring to big events that happened shortly before the book starts. I found it a little hard to follow at first. I don't know if I'll read any more of this series or not.

I dnfed that book. I just found it too overdramatic.

[Mim]

I have read the most fabulous book ever and I discovered it right here on Goodreads. It is Danann Frost Falls From Grace by Joanne Valiukas. If you like vampires, romance, action, adventure then this is for you. I am so in love with the vampire prince Seth. Wish he was mine. Do yourselves a favour and read it.

[Rebecca]

I have finished Bitten an excellent book i'd like to read more of Elena's adventures! 4stars
Undead and Unemployed hysterically funny 5stars
Undead and Unappreciated This is a great book, just a shame it wasn't longer 4stars and
Anne Boleyn and Me I have started Lover Eternal

Thanks Laura!!

I'm currently listening to Kiss Me While I Sleep by Linda Howard

[Tammy]

After reading a couple of stinkers I re-read Hummingbird....I think it's my favourite historical ever, I'd recommend it to everyone.

Next up isBeloved Enemy

[Megan]

finished , just started

[Erin]

Had to finish my books for the challenges from November!! Read and the only thing I didn't like about this book was the heroine being obsessively in love with the hero. Also read and it was really good!! Finished both and and I didn't enjoy either or them!! Now I have to decide what to read next...

[Melanie]

Is there any way to get a December thread up? I think only the moderators can do it? Otherwise I'd be glad to create a topic:-)

[Tammy]

I think you're right about the moderators having to do it, but did you try?

SO EXCITED! Claiming the Courtesan came in the mail today.
