2-Frostbite - Richelle Mead
1-2-11
3-Shadow Kiss - Richelle Mead
1-3-11
4-Blood Promise- Richelle Mead
5-Spirit Bound - Richelle Mead
(well this one took me to wee hours in the morning so technically it should have 2 dates on it!
and to boot my eyes are sore and just now going to enjoy a hot bath and cuddle up to Last Sacrifice! On to #6 in 4 days!
1-4-116- My Soul to Steal - rachel Vincent
7- Reaper - Rachel Vincent
I really loved the Shifter series by vincent its one of my fav's. Soul screamers is okay, i was dissapointed after reading the shifters series; however, in saying that....adult versus young adult would be the reason why. Decent read the series so far but what it was lacking from her other series i truly missed.....so you tweens out there will love it, us more seasoned (lol) readers its kindof fluff!
1-5-11
8- Last Sacrifice - Richelle Mead
Eventhough this one is also Young Adult....it is one of my FAVORITE series out there and i love way more than twilight! Now for a YA series Mead doesnt dissapoint me! Mind you in all her books she hasnt dissapointed! A true must read whatever age you are!
1-6-119-Lover Avenged - JR Ward
This one is a reread for me! Who doesnt like the BDB....and Rhev is my favorite outta all of them! After these last books of YA, i needed to get the juices flowing again! What a way to start! :P
1-7-1110-Her Wolf - Rebecca Royce

I just had to say every time I see you post I do a double take. Rayna is my daughter's name as well and it's an uncommon name so I keep thinking she's posting here.

1-11-1113-Wolf's Valentine - Rebecca Royce
Well im up to date on this series now....they were okay reads, kept me entertained. Some of them shorter than the others and for that im thankfull. The westervelt wolves series i would rate a good filler book between series but its not one that i sit there and bite my nails in anticipation for the next to comeout!
Okay....so im starting way too many books here but they all interest me!Next on the list of reads...
The husband left this morning and not back until Sunday......hmmmm what to do! What to do! :P
ill let you know by saturday, should be finished the first one by then.....btw....Robyn im emailing you a book i just finished tomorrow! Its not my usual paranormal read but i fell in love with it and should occupy a good portion of your night shift! trust me...tantilizing!
1-13-1114-A Little Harmless Sex - Melissa Schroeder
Great story line, intrigue, sex, passion, love and honor! All my favorite things....the only thing it lacked was the absence of my fanged or furry friends....none the less i would reccomend it to everyone!
1-15-1115-City of Bones - Cassandra Clare
As always a very excellent book! As such i will to continue on to the next!
1-15-1116-Awakened - PC Cast & Kristen Cast
Well i cant really say a whole lot good abou the book. It is what i have expected.....a very long drown out series that keeps on getting worse. what gets me is there are still 8 more books! Not too sure i can keep reading them its getting too painfull!
yeah there are 8 left i think they targeted 16 for this series lord help me! i dont think i can finish that one!!!book 3 vamp academy is my second favorite of the series last sacrifice being my first! dont wait get to Shadow kissed, my heart was joyous and wrenched in that book! im either sending the book tonight or in the morning...its kindof been hectic and all with no help with my kids! hubby should be back soon :
1-16-1117-Pleasure Unbound - Larissa Ione
Very good book, though i wish there was a bit more at the ending.....i havent read the teaser for book 2 yet but something tells me that E & Tay's story is over and on to the next love match! Thus i would have liked to see a bit more of their mating! All in all a great reas and looking forward to book 2!
Robyn wrote: "gone til sunday... enjoy the peace and quiet and read away! i saw that demonica series at the book store recently and almost picked it up. i am curious to see if it is anygood"i would reccomend it! but first finish VA series.....ah Dimitri, what can i say!!!
1-19-1118-Pleasure Unchained - Larissa Ione
Good book, continue story line from previous just with a different shift in characters. I loved Shades story as well Ione also followed up with her previous characters which made me happy to see. Once a couple has been written about further discussion in later books is unusual. At least i got to see how Tay and E went along with their relationship while being entranced with Shade's and Runa's story. Not to mention Ione also made a very good shift in leading up to Wraith's book which im excited to say im reading next!
This series is worth the read all!
1-20-1119-City of Ashes - Cassandra Clare
These are rereads for me but no matter how many times i read the real good ones it feels like the first time all over again! Oh how i love the Clary/Jace cunundrum!
i had the exact same feelings! I knew that they would be together in the end it would all work out! Ever since the seelie court i knew he wasnt her sister....so i didnt feel bad for wanting them to be together!
1-22-1120-City of Glass - Cassandra Clare
I am truly sad again to be done this series.....i am so hoping that book 4 released in about a month will hold up to my high standards i have set for this series and to keep me on the edge of my seat with Clary and Jace....i believe this one is from Simon's perspective so i dont know how that will fare.....only time will tell a guess!
heck i put the relaease date in my blackberry and im at the bookstore that day getting the next book of the series i read!!!
1-24-1121-Passion Unleashed - Larissa Ione
So far the best of the series! I really enjoyed this one, it had more of my favorite fanged friends in it!
1-25-1122-Ecstasy Unveiled -Larissa Ione
1-26-11
23-Sin Undone - Larissa Ione
These last two books were of my favorite fo the series! a truly great sereis read! Now off to pick my next series to start!!!! Any Suggestions???
i guess im going to have to read it some time.....i dont know why its taken this long to....ill start the first one tonite! thks
1-27-1124-Dead Until Dark - Charlene Harris
Okay, im done the first Sookie book and to tell you im not that impressed! Im not a big fan of bill, but everyone keeps on saying they love Eric so much so im thinking a change happens....it wouldnt be a loss if bill went by the way side but i dont know enough about Eric to like him any more than i can stand bill. i have to say that from the beginning i kinda like Sam the non threatening supportive puppy shifter to be honest!
Im continuing on to read book 2 with great reluctance!!!
i havent watched the show....i caught one episode and didnt like it so i passed, ill wait till they are out on video and rent it. mind you i hated the vampire diaries books and its one of my favorite tv shows to watch! Go figure!
the show is 1000 times better than the book! It has strayed away from the book ALOT! thats why i probably like the show! lol
1-31-1125-Living Dead in Dallas - Charlaine Harris
Well im still NOT in love with this series and nothing has really ties me to any of these characters...no wait i like the puppy shifter Sam and maybe Eric a little bit just because he likes to play naughty....but i am not in love with Sookie or Bill our main characters! Will this change god i hope so or i may have to call it quits on this series right away!
maybe......but once i start a series i usually have to finish it even when its bad. so i will probably give it one more book.....please tell me????? does she dump Bill at any time throughout the series???? please say its so! And maybe she goes for alcide???? i like him the best!
2-1-1126- Club Dead - Charliane Harris
well this one a bit better oly because Alcide came into the picture and i think Sookie should give him a shot, at lease he knows what a women likes, needs and wants other than that dolt Bill. Erics half way there!
2-1-1127-Dead to the World -Charlaine Harris
So far thisone wasnt that bad..... Bill was almost a non existant character and when he was there he wasnt the staring role in Sookies life.....maybe these books wont be so bad afterall.....on to the next!
Shadow Kiss was one of my fav's. The next one Blood Promise was probably my least favorite of all the books but the rest are grrrreat!
2-3-1128-Dead as a Doornail - Charlaine Harris
This one was Okay, kindof upset at Alcide since i really like him.....now he's just being a douche! But Quinn has rushed up to fill that amazingly awesome male prospect! We will see!
yeah that was teh packleader book.....and it pee'd me off royally that he could be such an *ss!!!but i love Quinn!
2-5-1129-Definately Dead-Charlaine Harris
This is one of the better books out of the series...not to shabby!
2-6-1130-All Together Dead - Charlaine Harris
Not bad, i would of liked Eric to admit his feelings for Sookie a bit more and then there be a real love triangle....i honestly at this point dont know who she'd pick??? not a whole lot of romantic action to which i was a bit dissapointed!
2/7/1131-From Dead to Worse-Charlaine Harris
Well this one kindof dissapointed me quite a bit....Quinn was a dissapointment and Eric really hasnt stepped up after finding out about him and Sookie which i thought he would. So all in all not a favorite in the series
2/8-1132-Dead and Gone- Charlaine Harris
Eventhough i thought her to be a bit hard on Quinn, i think deep down she didnt have enough feelings for the man. To be honest i only think the vamps can protect her from all the trouble she gets herself into. now saying that i wish Eric would step up like Bill had only Bill was way to late and if Eric is not going to do it soon he might miss the boat too! The Sookie train is impatient and stubborn!!!
yeah but the man has way too much baggage and prejudices to others. He is very Pro were and i could never see that man even now that hes pack leader pick anyone else than a true were to carry on the blood line. Plus he doesnt accept Sookie truly
2-9-1133-Dead in the Family -Charlaine Harris
Well im all caught up to date and have to wait until May for the next one. This books wasnt one of the good ones to leave off with. Eventhough Sookie and Eric profess their love it still leaves me unsatisified! The jusr is still out if i like this series or not i guess the next book out in May may help in that decision! But i did go out and rent the complete season one and two from the video so i may not read this much this weekend but watch instead! mwahahahaha!
2-15-1134-When Blood Calls - J.K. Beck
Good read, a little lacking in H/H character development, absolutely good twist on PNR and full of murder, mystery, lust and betrayal. What a combination!
2-18-1135-Twilight - Stephanie Meyer
Well this is an annual read for me, i have to have my fill of Edward. Don't hold it againnst me!
2-23-1136-First Drop of Crimson - Jeanine Frost
So far out of all i've read, this book is my favorite!
I reccomend to anyone!
2-24-1137-Origins-Sean Hayden
A first novel for this author and very well done at that. A vampire novel that doesnt fit the norm for vamp novels....HAyden has thought outside the box on this one! Well done!
3-9-1138-The Undead Heart-Tate Jackson
Great first book, had all my favorites....vamps, soul mates, love and almost peed my pants! you should read it!
