Right now I’m about to finish my second run through the Black Dagger Brotherhood novels by J.R. Ward. Many are reading these in preparation for the newest release Lover At Last. Personally, I’m on pins and needles waiting for that book!!!
If you haven’t read the series, or heard of it, you’re probably not a paranormal fan. It’s addicting, let me warn you!
I’m about to start my book club’s book, I’ve Got your Number by Sophie Kinsella. I adore her books, they are always funny, realistic and memorable. If you haven’t read Sophie yet, I recommend you read Can you Keep a Secret. OMG it’s hilarious and a book I’ll never forget. I think I’ll read it again soon.
After this book, I’m reading Lindi Peterson’s Summer’s Song, it’s a beautiful story according to a pal who’s already read it, so I’m excited about it.
The last one on my current list to be read next is LowCountry Boil by Susan M. Boyer, it looks like a great read and I’m excited about reading it and sharing it with my friends.
Have you read any of these books? Are you planning to read any of them? What’s on your list?
The Romance Reviews
I just finished Kat Martin’s Against the Odds and I’m reading a Lisa Gardner book I can’t remember the title of it. IN my tbr stack are Nora Roberts The Perfect Hope, 2 Harlequin Intrigues, a Larissa Ione novel and a historical I haven’t reached yet. I often read two books at once. Have one in my purse and one on the night stand. When I finish one I work on finishing the other, usually the one in the purse, then put another in my purse.
I am a chain reader too!! Have not read Nora in a while.
I can’t wait to read JR Ward’s series because you’ve spoken so much about it.
I LOVE Lindi’s book! I know you’ll enjoy it.
I’m going to get another one hooked on the BDB series, I can feel it!!!
Hildie, you amaze me with your ability to read so many books. Perhaps when the children move out…
Currently, I am reading Christie Oleson’s “Her Scottish CEO” on my Kindle Cloud. In my “office” (the only place I can read in relative privacy without interruption) is a short stack of erotic anthologies, titled “Secrets”. I will possibly, maybe be done with one anthology and Christie’s book by the end of Feb/mid March.
I used to love Nora Roberts but have not read her J.R. Ward books, although I’ve heard good things about them. I do love paranormal and sci-fi romance. Sherrilyn Kenyon’s one of my fave authors, particularly her The League series.
JR Ward is not Nora Roberts, I think you’re thinking of J.D. Robb’s In Death series, that’s a good one too.
I read at bedtiime and when I’m waiting anywhere, love my Kindle!
Right now I’m working on Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein. Two teen girls, occupied France, the Gestapo. Need I say more? Very interesting way of telling the story; it would never have occurred to me. after that, I think I’m going to try the steampunk Ciara profiled a few weeks back.
We read Code Name Verity for book club, I got confused on that one.
I don’t often get to read ‘for pleasure’ since most of my reading goes hand in hand with editing, but I did have the opportunity to ‘just read’ a book recently. Hasn’t happened in awhile. It was “Warm Bodies” by Isaac Marion. I watched the film, and was very surprised by how much I enjoyed it, so I read the book. While there were a great deal of plot holes and things left unanswered (in my opinion) Mr. Marion’s writing made up for it. I’m lucky if I have one “oh, wow… that’s nice” moment when reading a book — usually because of the author’s turn of phrase or a way they write a scene — but I had several with this book. I highlighted them all in the ebook as I went and made note of it.
It’s not a typical romance, but I enjoyed it.
Interesting, hmmm may have to watch the movie and see if I also am lead to read the book. Thanks Gail.
Haven’t read it, but I have Lindi’s book!
Reading an ARC for an author right now.
