Thank you BookWhisperer! :) I just finished (and reviewed) A Great and Terrible Beauty today. It was really good -- better than I expected. I saw your review for The Silver Kiss. I've been wanting to start that for a while now, so I think it will be my next!

SO what books are you reading or want to read right now.

Lähettänyt: desdronama 11:13 am (EST) Jul 16, 2009

Cool I will go look it up and maybe check it out in the library in a week or two but right now I'm reading the Crank series by Ellen Hopkins you should get them.Her books are really really good.It is hard to understand at some points since all the books are written in poems but once you start to understand its awesome.The Crank series is about a 17 year old girl named Kristina who goes to visither druggie dad in Mexico and while she's there she falls in love with this guy named adam and unfortunatly she also falls in love with Crank or in other words meth.So she returns home a new person or as Kristina likes to call it Bree.So this Ellen Hopkins series is about a girl who has twistes and turns with drugs and gets herself into a lot of sticky situations.

Stayed up late on Friday night to finish Prey, it was fab, so good, I really shouldn't race through books, I don't think the next, Shift is out until March 2010 which is a fairly long time to wait patiently. I agree with being slightly miffed at Faythe, but given the circumstances I can kind of understand, but I think it'll be interesting to read the repercussions in Shift.

Lähettänyt: viciouslittlething 3:52 am (EST) Jul 9, 2009

I am expecting Prey any day now! It's a pain when UK book's take an age to get out over here, they have been waiting on stock for two weeks so far! Someone should make an app for that, there may be one out there. We won an Ipod Touch and it was delivered last night and it's lush! Maybe the LT team will one day release a calendar/reminder option on upcoming books.

Lähettänyt: viciouslittlething 3:41 am (EST) Jul 8, 2009

I abuse my calendar, that's how. I belong to many authors yahoo groups or forums and add them to my calendar when they are due to be released. I also use amazon recommendations and they list all new or upcoming books I may be interested in. I am also anticipating alot of books at the moment.

Lähettänyt: viciouslittlething 5:14 am (EST) Jul 7, 2009

I have a few places that I check out frequently for new book releases. One is http://www.romantictimes.com/ it a great website that lets you search for books in any genre and back a few years as well. I also like to check out the listmania's on Amazon because most of the work has already been don't for me. http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/ is also another really great website for serching out your favorite authors and seeing what upcoming books are in the works, but mostly I get my info from a couple of good friends on my other book community website http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/Community-Home/community_home-giz.html, which is alot like this one! hope some of these are helpful for you! Let me know how it turns out!

hehheee, i am to confuse....

fit a fire, it's way more boring than it sounds. I used to sell and fit wood stoves for a career, I had bought a wood stove to fit in my lounge about 4 years ago, but it's been on the bottom of the DIY to do list for so long. I still didn't get around to fitting, it looks like it might have to wait until I get some free time in June. It's a little Hunter Hawk wood stove, cute and kicks out a lot of heat.

We wanted to fit a fire in September last year and it looks as though this is the weekend it might actually be fitted! I am reading 'Acheron' at the moment, it's been a while since I read any Sherrilyn Kenyon and this one is a mammoth book. So much to choose from next, might finish Annette Blair's series with 'The Scot, the Witch and the Wardrobe' and then I can ebay them to buy some more books.

Hey Jackie,

How have you been? How's your Paranormal 999 Challenge going? I see you read White Witch, Black Curse already. Did you get an ARC? You only gave it two stars, did it suck? I have been reading American Gods by Neil Gaiman. It's a bit slow going. Kind of creepy. What's up next for you?

Okay when you explain, it makes sense. How it looks on the page makes you think something else, lol.

Right now I'm reading The Reincarnationist by M.J. Rose. So far I'm hooked! I started a bookclub with a couple of the girls from work and the first book we are reading is The Memorist by M.J. Rose so I thought I would read this one first and see how it goes.

How about you?

Hi Jackie - thanks for adding me to your interesting libraries list. I didn't get any books, but I got the next best thing. A B&N gift card. How was your Christmas?

Have you read any of Mario Acevedo books yet? What do you think? I had hoped to snag his from the Dec. ER but no such luck. I did get the Dana Stabenow book though, so I am not complaining. I have yet to check out your library but from your list of fav authors it looks like we have several in common.

no probs! If you can pass it on once you have read it, it's not a keeper for me.

I haven't had a chance to read yet, have had the flu all over the christmas break and just returned to work today, not back to full health yet all I want to do is sleep not read.

I preordered it off amazon, still on my wishlist until it comes out, is that the end of the month.

I keep a track of the dates in my outlook calendar at work, I get newsletter e-mails from the authors I love as well which keep me up to date with what is new and next. Amazon recommendations is good too!

I have a huge wishlist on here, massive. At the moment I am reading Brisingr by Christopher Paolini and then moving onto Living with the Dead by Kelley Armstrong, also have Hounding the Moon by PR Frost to read too. I have exceeded my 50 book challenge, but sucking at nanowrimo been too ill most of the time (stupidity on my part) too actually type so have 13108 words to date, no where near 50000 which is needed, my first year of not going for it :( hey there is always next year!

Hi

Thanks for stopping by my page and leaving a comment it's lovely to 'meet' with people who like the same genres as me. I had fun noseying around your library too and I ache with envy that you have the third book of Jeanine Frosts! :)

I noticed you liked werewolves and have a lot of the really good ones already so I'd recommend Christopher Golden's Prowlers series which I thought was quite cool and his other books are certainly worth checking out. For YA I'd recommend Lisa Jane Smith particularly the Secret Circle trilogy about witches and her trilogy Forbidden Game (norse mythology and djinn) they are teeny romances but they are very readable. I'm sure there's more I meant to recommend but my mind's gone blank... I might pop by later if I can remember them!

I have "Wicked Lovely", a YA novel by Melissa Marr! I'll have to try her other book - I love stories about fae!

Thanks for the reccomendations!

I tried to read LA Banks' "Minion"... Have you read it? I'm not sure if I like it. It doesn't flow well for me, and I don't feel like I know the characters. Maybe the other books in the series get better? I saw you have another book of hers...what did you think?

I can't wait to buy more weather warden books! :)

Lähettänyt: cflorente 11:17 am (EST) Sep 3, 2008

Hey there!

Sookie Stackhouse series is written by Charlaine Harris - they are a "southern vampire" series, although they don't really seem like it to me. Not as gory as some, not as sensual as some, but fun plot! Another plus is that there are a ton of books and they kept me happy for almost a month...until I finished all of them!

:]

Have fun!

Any other series you enjoy? i liked the comment from the gal below - i'm looking nito those recommendations! I just started the weather warden series and LOVED the first book. i can't wait to buy all of them!

Lähettänyt: cflorente 2:56 pm (EST) Aug 28, 2008

I've actually only read the 7th book in the series, Gale Force, because the author sent it to me for review. I'm working on getting the first 6, so I can just read away, lol. I have 3 of them so far. I did enjoy Gale Force though. :)
