I understand what you're saying CaroB, I would have been lost too. Fortunately, I figured that I would just read Jeaniene Frost's books as released. I recommend stopping and reading the 2 Night Huntress World books. Of course, you don’t have to, I’m biased because my absolute favorite was Eternal Kiss of Darkness. Hope that helps! :o)

[Lina]

That's what I've decided too Megan, after my little rant and vent earlier, sorry. I'll leave the Cat & Bones book where I'm up to for now.

[Kit★]

I'm reading . So far it's alright. Never read this author before.

[Heather]

Lori Foster has always been a hit-n-miss author for me, but I'm really liking . The hero, Dare, is a great character and Molly has a lot of grit.

[Heather]

Finished When You Dare. Liked it a lot and I plan on continuing the series soon.
Picking up on audio and on my kindle. Hope City of Bones turns out to be as good as a lot of people claim it to be.

[Kristi]

I know who you're talking about. The positive side, though when I'm grumping it's the last thing I want to hear so I understand if you virtually slap me...Anyways, the positive side is that there's only 2 books from that series out. So, it'll be easy catching up. Go ahead, slap me for butting in on your grump. I would. ha ha!

[Zoe]

Still reading , which is better than I thought it would be, and Can't Stand The Heat - which is pretty long for a romance and I'm not loving the main characters, but I'll give it a shot.

When September rolls around, I'm joining a challenge just to get a few more books read!

Kristi, was that for me? I'm already halfway through the first Night Huntress World Book, you're right it wont take me long to catch up :-)

[Heather]

Still working on . I'm not a huge Jace fan as of yet.

Read ; thought it was a light, easy read, but it didn't ring any major bells.

Just finished . Other than some irritating nicknames, I really loved this story. Looking forward to reading Kaylea Cross's other work!!

Yes it was. I'm sorry. Sometimes when I hit reply, it doesn't always add the quoted part. Ugh! Then I look like an idiot shooting out statements that seem as if they're coming from nowhere.

And it should've said, "I know what you're talking about." LOL!

Though it was at 735am, so maybe I hadn't finished my first cup of coffee yet. Or at least that's what I'm telling myself. ha ha!

LOL! No worries Kristi. I do stuff like that all the time :-)

I've been advised by some stone cold Cat and Bones fans to read the books from the spin-off series before This Side of the Grave. I agree with you. Why must we read books from a spin off series in order to keep up on who's dating who?!

[Ann]

I finished

now reading

I think a few people are feeling the same Michelle. I've been reading some reviews and that seems to be the consensus.

[Lina]

Ann, I've had the Pink Carnation series on my TBR pile for a little while now, but haven't started it as yet. I'd be interested to know what you think.

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

That does look good. Added it. :)

so far so good, it is a story in a story. It starts off in today but then goes back in time; it is not time travel there are just two stories going on. I don't want to say to much, I don't want to spoil it for anyone.

Ann, They don't have that one at my library, but I put a request in for .

[Kelley]

Lisa Kay wrote: "Ann, They don't have that one at my library, but I put a request in for [bookcover:..."

Just a heads up, this is a series MUCH better read in order. Especially since there are two time lines being covered in each book. Each historical timeline story is relatively stand alone though they do occur chronologically and there are a lot of references to previous books, especially the big reveal about who actually IS the Pink Carnation. You read them out of order and that surprise is totally ruined for you.

The contemporary timeline is a continuous story that goes on through the whole series. You'll miss a lot not reading them in order. I've done the entire series except the most recent "The Orchid Affair."

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

Thanks, Kelley! GTK.

Lisa, let me know if you'd like the ebook of #1

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

Thanks, CaroB!

[Ann]

I finished and loved it!!

now back to reading

[Lina]

Just finished and want to read more Brockmann. That was my first, and I thought it was fantastic!!!

Will be starting today for one of my challenges.

[Ann]

I just finished this was so much fun to read! Romance, adventure, and sexy spies; whats not to love!

[Heather]

In the middle of . Enjoying it, but I need some smexy goodness!

[Megan]

just came in from the library, so I will be reading that next.

[rameau]

I don't know how I could be so lucky for I just finished reading two great books. Of the historical vein

and of the contemporary M/M

Since I asked, and was granted an ARC I might have to read this next:

[Lina]

rameau, how do you ask for an ARC?

[rameau]

CaroB wrote: "rameau, how do you ask for an ARC?"

I joined NetGalley and requested a promising (=pretty cover, I'm so shallow) book.

[Kit★]

Bout halfway through . It's good so far, but the heroine is a little strange to me, a huge prude, and at times I wanna smack her :)

[Lina]

Thanks for the info rameau :-) ♥Pretty covers♥

[rameau]

CaroB wrote: "Thanks for the info rameau :-) ♥Pretty covers♥"

You're welcome, the registering process was a little tiring, but I had someone walk me through it.

Kit, Eloise James, I know that name but I can't remember loving any of her work. Maybe I've just all the wrong ones.

[Lina]

I really enjoyed .

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

CaroB wrote: "I really enjoyed ."

I have been looking at that one. Most people seem to really like it.

[Heather]

In the middle of . Loving Dragos and Pia!! Did not want to put it down last night to sleep. =)

[Lina]

I love a book that makes you fight to stay awake!

[Tracey]

Currently reading the BOM for Sept . Hadn't realized I had already read a few by this author until I went to find this book and saw a few covers I recognized. Was not actually a huge fan of but then I read which was better. So far I am enjoying the current book, if I do like it I may give a few of her others a chance

[Tracey]

Heather wrote: "In the middle of . Enjoying it, but I need some smexy goodness!"

Just picked up plan to start that soon :)

Is that series YA?

I really liked that one too, but I think I've already recommended you to read it a couple of times LK, lol! Finished and it turned out good. Next I'll be reading to finish up the series. I read them all out of order, b/c that's how I came across them, but I think they'd flow better in order, b/c each book starts at the party that ends the book before it. Oh well. If I ever re-read them, it'll be in order. I like Eloisa James' writing style. She reminds me of Julia Quinn, but with a bit less cuteness, sweetness and fluffiness, and with steamier sex scenes.

[Megan]

Tracey wrote: "Megan wrote: " just came in from the library, so I will be reading that next."

Yes it is Tracey. It's the first book in a spin off series. The original series by Richelle Mead was called Vampire Academy, which is very good! Or, at least I think so!

[Leslie]

I'm reading Girls in White Dresses, a collection of linked short stories that traces the turbulent love lives of a group of twenty-something New Yorkers. It's a delightful read. Like "Sex in the City," but smarter.

Well put Kit, and those things are what I love about E.J!

LOL! I think you did! Others have, but when you did, I sat up and took notice. :)

[Heather]

I really hope you like . It's one of those series for me that sucked me in and has yet to let go.

[Heather]

Just finished . You REALLY need to read it if you haven't already!!!!!!!! I can not stress the "!!!!!!!!" enough. lol

[Lina]

ok!!!!!!!

[Heather]
