Desperado (lethallovely) | 453 comments Amber, Gena Showalter's Alien Huntress series is about aliens. IIRC, the "vamps" in Lara Adrian's Midnight Breed series are actually aliens too.

Really?! I've had my nook for over a year, always got the current updates and never once lost a single file... And the bulk of my books are in MyDocuments. Same applies to my other 3 nook owning friends. You may want to get yours serviced or replaced. If it's wiping out like that, it shouldn't be and perhaps you have a defective unit. Just a thought. That being said, it is ALWAYS a good idea to keep an updated backup of your MyDocuments on your computer anyway because, well, things happen. However, my nook has been problem free; too bad you're having such rotten luck with it.

Jennifer Ortiz (wallaboo) | 6 comments This sounds like an awesome challenge! I'm all for it! I'll have to really think about my book list though... I'll look into some of the titles other people posted. I'm especially excited about #5 & #9 - I just recently decided that I want to read books that fall into those categories. And luckily, some of the series I am currently in the middle of will fall into some of the other categories. Eeeep! I can't wait!


message 67: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer Ortiz (wallaboo) | 6 comments Hmmmm... Trying to figure out how to make zombies fit into this challenge. They were human and now have this undead-ness "power". So that's sort of a shifter, sort of an immortal, and sort of a human with powers... What do you think? Too much of a stretch? Yeah, I think I'm pushing my luck here. I guess I'll have to save Amanda Hocking's Hollowland for later. Drats.

This is my first time doing this challenge. Any tips? Can I post a tentative list, but change the books later (as long as it still fit the category)? Sometimes, I feel like a certain book over another.

Nairabell | 193 comments Miri - how about anything by Victoria Laurie for psychics? Aliens stumped me too, till I found my copy of Your Planet or Mine? (the only alien book I own). Hope this helps :)

Mel W (melw) | 411 comments Okay, January's challenge has officially started!

I've been MIA recently but the renovations are finally complete and things are gradually getting back to normal around here. Thanks for your patience! I will be finalising all updates to December 2010 this week, and updating the leaderboards also ... hopefully ... this week.

A slight change to the regularity of updates since I won't, initially, be participating in this challenge on a regular basis ... I will post a list at the beginning, then update around the middle of the month, and then the final update at the end of the month.

Okay, will be back shortly with this month's participants!

Good luck, everyone!
