Naamah's Blessing by Jacquelyn Carey

How did you like it?? I've read the other two series by her (which I really enjoyed!) but I wasn't too keen on her Banewrecker series and I've heard some unflattering things about this book.

I really enjoyed it. The difference between this character Moirin and Phedre or Imiriel is that she isn't a chosen of Kushiel but of Naamah and Anael so she is less conflicted or tortured by a darker side. Some people didn't like that but I found Moirin a really good character. I'd still recommend it. :) I haven't tried her Banewrecker series but have them on my list. I've kinda put off starting them because of the reviews I've read.

Stormfront by Jim Butcher

Warm Bodies by Isaac Marion Warm Bodies

That's good to know. Honestly, I wasn't that in love with the darker elements of the series, just the characters. I think I might check this out.

Re: Banewrecker - you should check it out from the library. It was...different. The story line follows the "bad guys" but in a way that makes their actions seem right or that they might not be the actual bad guys.

The Way of Shadows by Brent Weeks. This book has popped out at me over and over at the bookstore but I kept telling myself I would get it "next time." I'm so glad I finally bought it. Fantastic book and I was hooked from page 1.
