I recently finished and will start soon. I'm liking what I've read so far.

[Marcia]

Reading (for the fourth time) the entire "Winged" series by LM Pruitt, waiting as patiently as possible for the next release. Every read, I find something new to love of the series. The primary lead is female, who begins her "true" life with her death. It's good vs. evil, angels vs. demons, and has sex, romance, love, and hate all wrapped into a fantastic set of books. I don't know how I found this author - but recommend her to all of Urban Fantasy/Paranormal group.

That does sound like a good series Marcia. Is the romance in the story the insta love kind? Or Is it a slow building romance?

[Marcia]

It is not a typical romance (immediate love at first sight) where things follow a standard pattern. I would not classify it as a light, teen, or girly series. It is romantic, but also contains battle and sex scenes.

The story tells of a woman who loves two Archangels, the team of fighters she leads, and the other Archangels and their connections to Joanne, Raphael, and Michael.

There is some profanity, but connects to the scene, humor and a well-connected, long-term plot to events. Depending on your religious temperature, it could be an uneasy concept, however I consider myself Christian, and the concepts did not cause me to run screaming to the delete bin!

Pruitt is a great writer and the stories are hard to describe. I have her stored with Faith Hunter, Jeannine Frost, Anne Bishop, Kim Harrison, and definitely Laurell K Hamilton. The first chapter of the first book caught me and I keept going from there!!

Pruitt also has the Jude Magdalyn series, which is also a superb read. My only wish is that I had ALL of her books in print and ebook, as I'd buy them as paper gifts for friends that read UF!!

Karen Marie Moning's and Jim Butcher's Dresden files are my 2 all time favorites. Jim has a book of Dresden shorts you might want to check out as well:


I'm reading Kelley Armstrong's and plus I'm listening to J.R. Ward's

[Yolanda]

Thanks Mayko, will check it out.

I would like to read a couple of Vampire books under this genre. If anyone has any recommendations, that would be greatly appreciated.

[Veronica]

Finished and will be moving on to the second book . The books have a definite southern gothic feel to them.

I read this series and really enjoyed it. My only issue was with the ending of the third book, not how it ended per se, but with the way in which the author wrote it. hope you enjoy them!

After finishing the first book I looked up the author on the internet. She's writing three more books (there was a big gap after the third book b/c her husband died unexpectedly), don't know if that affects the third book's ending for you ?????

I'm about halfway through the second book. It's interesting and I'm curious about Amelia's past but I'm not into it as much as I was with the first book. I think it's the complete change in location and characters.

[Elise]

I am almost through and am liking it, though I felt the story shifted style about halfway through, it's very intriguing. Definitely more of a pure fantasy than an urban fantasy, but the magic isn't annoying. It feels like science, which I really like.

I didn't know that about her husband. How sad! I just felt like the ending of the third book was almost rushed and she was just tying up all the loose ends so she could just be done with writing the series.

I would agree with that assessment.

[Sharon]

Going for a re-read. This author is sometimes good/sometimes not for me ... seems as if I either love the books or am barely able to get through the entire book, if that.

Characters in this one are particularly good and story line is urban fantasy crossed with magic, nicely done.

Although I like urban fantasy I am not a particular fan of vampire books. That said, I have a couple of books on my shelves that I like very well, re-reads for me, in fact. One is by an author I often like very well, Also two books by another author. Voodoo Dues and Vampire Blues. I just couldn't resist a nerdy vampire, complete with pocket protector!

[♥ Ashleigh ♥]

Im currently reading and so far i am not a fan. i was for about 10% mid way through the book. before and after that 10% has not been great. theres many typing errors, grammar errors, name errors. ect. plus the main characters is this shitty 'almost man' wo's constantly trowing a tantrum and killing people because stuff didnt go his way. he's pretty much a bully with magical powers.
the magic powers and the world are pretty cool. only good thing about the book so far.

[Sue]

I just finished reading Nether, by Colleen Vanderlinden. It's the fifth book in her Hidden series and it is awesome! It's UF with a strong PNR element as well as some Greek mythology thrown in for fun. Highly recommend.

I'm currently enjoying the first book in the Hollows series:

I have just started reading book 4

[Whitney]

This is my all time favorite Genre to read but I haven't read as much as I would like this year because I'm trying to get rid of old books and get those read. That being said I need to read the latest three in Kate Daniels and Sabina Kane series. I wanted to start a book about angels so I think I'm going to pick up

[Whitney]

Finished I gave it four stars because I appreciated the idea even though I predicted the ending about 0 percent through the book. The second one also seems predictable so I don't know when I will pick it up.

[♥ Ashleigh ♥]

Finished reading have to say i was not very impressed with it. the main character is absolutely terrible in pretty much all ways. totally unlikable. i dont think it was edited at all. the writer has potential though, being that i still managed to finish the book even after all the elements i disliked. magic was awesome.

currently reading so far it hasnt been bad. i like the main character, and feel sad for her, she has had terrible luck in life. about to start reading from her 'partners' POV. not really looking forward to that. i dont want to feel sympathetic towards him in anyway..... who knows maybe i'll end up disliking him even more?

[Allie]

A am reading Regali which is book four in A Walker Saga. These books have lots of twists and turns and all of the characters hold my interest.

Foxglove Summer

[Veronica]

Finished then took a quick break to read and am now reading .

[LilMisGrayBrisk]

I'm getting ready to read Magic Burns .

[LilMisGrayBrisk]

Currently reading Magic Strikes .

[Veronica]

Finished and really enjoyed the whole trilogy. Read and wasn't overly impressed so it's a toss up as to whether I'll read more in the series. For now I'm reading .

[Ozell]

Hello everyone , my name is Ozell Powell Jr. I'm a writer, but have only one published book thus far. I love fantasy stories which are written along the lines of religion/fantasy.

[Sharon]

Ozell wrote: "I love fantasy stories which are written along the lines of religion/fantasy."

You may already be familiar with them, but Lois Bujold has two books set in a world with one of the most interesting religious world settings I've read. The religious scenario is a part of the plotline and is very coherent, as well as being quite different. Both books are stand alones, although they are both set in the same world. The Curse of Chalion and Paladin of Souls

[Ozell]

Thank you. I will definately take a look at them.

[♥ Ashleigh ♥]

I finished and thought it was fantastic! I'm looking forward to reading the other books in the series.

I also re-read and i still love it. such a fantastic amazing book! i hadnt read it in a while and the next book World After was perfect for my challenge, besides I've been meaning to re-read Angelfall for a while. I plan on buying my own copy soon.
I also read and it was fantastic, just not as fantastic as the first book :( maybe half a star less so? still makes it a 4 1/2 star read though. i jut felt like Penryn's strength's weren't shown as well in this 2ns book. still a lovable cast.
cant wait to read which is coming out in may!!!!! so excited!!

I read which sadly wasnt as good as i had expected. high hopes fro all that praise i suppose.

now reading its alright, the main character is ...... not very bright.

started , its weird and kind of makes no sense but i'm enjoying it anyways. I'm aso feeling somewhat desperate to unravel the mysteries in this book, i just wanna know!!!
lol

Getting ready to start Magic Bleeds

I love the Kate Daniels series. :) As for me, I'm currently reading

[Kathy]

Lindsey, yes Kate Daniels books are great!!! I am behind the times and have not gotten the .5 books as most are available only in electronic form. Incentive for me to get a Kindle or something like that!!

I like Lara Adrian as well. It is irritating to me that I did not read them in order as things get a big mixed up. But just got done with Ashes of Midnight. (Went back and read those that I skipped.)

[Brian]

I'm reading American Gods by Neil Gaiman and Thud! by Terry Prachett. I like American Gods but I'm not loving it yet. Thud is hilarious and full of that sharp observation of human nature and the nature of others (trolls, dwarves, vampires, etc...), as well as society as a whole, that I really enjoy in Mr. Prachett.

Will be interested in your take on this one. Have been following the series but the reviews so far on this one seem a bit mixed.

[Whitney]

Okay so in the group I help run we read quarterly group reads so I am working on The Lies of Locke Lamora for that group. Then I hope to also read The Sparrow for Sword and Laser book club it will be my first time reading with the group. If I can I need to finish the rest of Saga volume 3 and The Spiritglass Charade which is really good but when I got sick I couldn't type let alone hold a physical book. I'm feeling better and trying to get back into reading. My speed level went down in the process though :(. So now I read really slow.

I listened to The Lies of Locke Lamora a few months ago and just adored it. But I love those complex, long-term con games.

I hope you continue to feel better!

I have read all of these except the new one you are reading. They are a tough read as there are so many characters, and more are added each book. It can get (and does get) confusing as to what is going on and where. Of course part of it is that I don't know anything about the area that the stories are set in.

The stories certainly are unique and show a great deal of imagination. I think that is what brings me back to read each one.

[MadameZelda]

I've started reading . Finally getting around to it!
