I also read Darkness Chosen Bk #1 "Scent of Darkness". Here's my review: A great 1st novel to her new series, I thought it was terrific! I thought Ann was an awesome female first character. Her personality is clearly written, you get a sense of what it would be like to be her. And Jasha... an awesome first male character. Both are perfect for each other, even if neither wants to admit it. And once admitted, one doesn't believe the other. The action, the excitement, the danger, the plot itself was truly well written. Stories of the past help the reader understand why what's what and why things are the way they are. You come to understand Jasha's family, even with one thing that's mentioned but not elaborated on, and I can't wait until that's brought to light. For the first book in the series, it was a fast-paced, excellent read. The next novel, Touch of Darkness, will be out in August ... and I can't wait! Rating: 5 stars.

That is y I am considering a few new series. I hate reading so many series (with forgettable characters) and they were all running together.
I am excited, the most, about starting Dante Valentine.

I'll also recommend Kresley Cole's Immortals After Dark series. Its probably my favorite PNR series. It has great characters and is action packed; never a dull moment.

2 A Hunger Like no Other
3 No Rest for the Wicked
4 Wicked Deeds on a Winter’s Night
5 Dark Needs at Nights Edge
6 Dark Desires after Dusk
The first story is in the anthology Playing Easy to Get. I have not read that one yet but didn't feel it necessary to start the series.

2. No Rest for the Wicked (My fav!)
3. Wicked Deeds on a Winter's Night
4. Dark Deeds at Night's Edge
5. Dark Desires After Dusk
There is also a short story called The Warlord Wants Forever in the anthology Playing Easy to Get. Cole writes really fun, memorable characters.

I did like the characters andstory idea of the Immortals book.That is what drew me but the structure turned me off.



I have read both the all of the Kitty series and I just started Witchling I think the series is called Sisters of the Moon and so far I like it just fine. The thing I like about the Kitty series is that you can really watch her grow and I will not say anything more because I would ruin it for you

Welcome Heather, asking book questions is rarely dorky!
Kitty is a werewolf who has a talk show on the local radio station. The series begins with Kitty and the Midnight Hour by Carrie Vaughn, and has several sequils with another due out soon.

Black Dagger Brotherhood - J.R. Ward
Night Huntress - Jeaniene Frost
The Maker's Song - Adrian Phoenix
Women of the Otherworld - Kelley Armstrong
Mercy Thompson - Patricia Briggs
Nocturne City - Caitlin Kittredge
Midnight Breeds - Lara Adrian

Now I didn't like the Black Dagger books. I'm not sure why--but I didn't. I read about 1/2 of the first one, couldn't get into it, tried the second, again, couldn't get into, so I just gave the set away.
But I LOVE THe Mercy Thompson series. I have all of the books in it so far. I've read some of the Kitty books, liked some, didn't like others. And I'm not sure why.

Rae, is that L.A. Banks? Those who didn't enjoy the jargon in her Huntress series, will like the new series better. Features shifters and a kick-ass heroine. The writing style is becoming more polished and I enjoyed the first book.

Cool, 'cause Bad Blood was no stinker. It's wonderful when a series improves instead of disappointing.
Anyone read Ravenous by Sharon Ashwood? I think it's a debut? Almost finished and haven't decided what to think, exept I will most likely read a sequil. Any thoughts?

I have it in my pile to read for March. It looks good, so I'll be curious to see what you think of it. It will probably be one of my early reads for the month, so maybe we can start a thread to discuss it.
