I decide to stop Another Kind of Dead so that I can start Moonglow (Darkest London, #2) by Kristen Callihan so that I can get my review done for Stomp vs Romp before I go off to AADNOLA.

I finished this morning Gunmetal Magic (Kate Daniels, #5.5) by Ilona Andrews Love it, if you already know Ilona Andrews work, this she at her best, Renee Raudman was fantastic as usual, I just had to get used to the idea that it wasn't Kate's point of view.

I read this already, but I downloaded the audiobook as soon as saw on audible, I want to see how is the experience on audio. The Siren (The Original Sinners, #1) by Tiffany Reisz

OMG Lisa! This is probably the best book I read all year, but is not for everyone. Check my review.
So far the audio is sounding excellent!

Oh, but the one you are showing here is not the same Siren I'm talking about. I'm talking about The Siren by Tiffany Reisz

I read book 1 on my Nook. And since I'm a little behind on my reading for Stomp vs Romp I decided to do Moonglow on audio to save on time.

I don't normally care for a British narrator but she did an ok job. I wish she did a little better on the guy voices.

Taria Reed (tariar) | 5 comments I slacked big time last month. This month is going to be super busy too so I'll be happy to get through 10 books this month.

I just finished Lady Isabella's Scandalous Marriage (Highland Pleasures, #2) by Jennifer Ashley
and started The Many Sins of Lord Cameron (Highland Pleasures, #3) by Jennifer Ashley

Yeah, it is a GRs bugs that happened the update before last. It isn't a high priority fix. It cycles to the next book in line (sometimes by the same name, sometimes not). **shrugs** So, I don't know when they'll work on it. It has been funny to read (in the GoodReads Feedback group) some of the humorous things that have happened when someone is recommended a book that they have "replyed" in and someone else has gone to that book page and said, "WTH?" LOL! But other than that, it is annoying.

I finished listening to The Siren (The Original Sinners, #1) by Tiffany Reisz I thought Aeron James's British accent was perfect to bring this story to life. It's hard for me to give an opinion since I read the book before I listened to it, but I really thought he did an excellent job.
I'm now downloading, and probably starting next Dream Lake (Friday Harbor, #3) by Lisa Kleypas

Jennifer (thebooknympho) I told myself I would not start a new book this week since I'll be gone starting tomorrow through the weekend but I started The Care and Feeding of Stray Vampires (Half Moon Hollow #2) by Molly Harper this morning. LOL

I really enjoyed reading Firelight. I hope you like listening to it. I did listen to the 2nd book, Moonglow and it was even better.

Jennifer (thebooknympho) I'm almost 1/2 through Gunmetal Magic (Kate Daniels World, #1) by Ilona Andrews

Another kind of Dead is another UF, maybe try mixing up a little, that works for me, I don't get burned out on a genre

I finally finished Firelight (Darkest London, #1) by Kristen Callihan Very good, I really enjoyed, but I couldn't help to keep thinking how much better it would have been if Susan Ericksen would have read it instead. She's great with male voices.

More re- listens...And I enjoy them every time :)
Natural Born Charmer (Chicago Stars, #7) by Susan Elizabeth Phillips

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 296 comments Oh, that is a different one for SEP, Christine. Not everyone's cuppa tea. However, I live in Silicon Valley - San Jose. I was here for the tech revolution and let me tell, she nailed it!

OK, so we still getting rain and winds from Issac, but luckily we haven't lost power, I hope the worst it's over.
I finished Wicked Nights (Angels of the Dark, #1) by Gena Showalter and I'm rating it 4 stars, a much better beginning to the spinoff series than I remember for LOTU, even though now that's one of my favorites I remember having a very hard time with the first 2 books.
Now I have to advice everyone, for some reason I found Max Bellmore's narration really, really slow and I had lo listen to it in 2X speed, I have always enjoy his work, but some people find him sloppy and wet...LOL I have to admit I'm bias, I do like him :)

Now I have to decide which one of these I should listen to next;

Yea, I should had mentioned that before, it makes a big difference in some books. Plus there's another application you can use for regular mp3 books:

Not sure if they have it for android.


message 46: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 296 comments So, Loupe. I'm not able to change the speed on all my audiobooks. Will that app take care of this?

Yes, that works with all the other books that are not from audible, or that you are unable to play with the audible app, like CD's and books from the library, I think they have a free version, but I went ahead and bought the app for $2.99, a friend told me about it, and I've been using it since.


message 48: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 296 comments Okay. Just bought it. I'll let you know what I think of it. Of course, I have to figure out which books it applies to. LOL!
