hmm....Bitten 3 stars, Kitty 5 stars (love that book) and Darkest Night 5 satrs (its my new favorite series)

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Thanks for sharin' the love, Laura.

Women of the Otherworld gets better for most people. But, not enough of the shifters, IMO. KA writes about many different supes in that series and typically each book focuses on one supe or the other.

Kitty - Enjoying that series too. :)

LoTU - YAY! Another fan of the series! Can't wait for Strider and Paris' books soon. :D

[Dana]

[Daffodil]

Remind me again Steph. Do these all have to come from PNR/UF? I'm reading Happy Ever After by Nora Roberts and Mal rides a motorcycle, so I'm just wondering.

[Steph, Serious series addict]

WTG, Cindy!

Hi, Daffodil. On this one, the genre mini, other genres are okay when the category isn't specifically PNR or UF. So, HEA would work.

SOS Mini-Challenge: Genre Juice
August 1-31, 2011

Completed: 21/3

1. PNR -or- UF
Dragon Bound, Thea Harrison, 8-7-11, 5 stars

2. WARRIORS (whether PNR or UF, Funny or Serious)
Elijah, Jacquelyn Frank, 8-22-11, 3 stars

3. Road Trip: motorbike riding H/h
Happy Ever After, Nora Roberts, 8-25-11, 4 stars




ETA the ratings.

Elijah just wasn't as interesting to me as the first two. And Happy Ever After probably got a boost from being the first book I read after the disaster called Hit List, LOL.

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Yay, Daffodil!

Is it just my iPhone app? Or is everyone forgetting to share their ratings recently?

[Lisa Kay]

Congrats, everyone!
