Poor neglected blog :(

Oh dear, it has been too long since I have been here, whilst I have been following other blogs I am lacking in updating mine :(


So here we go, the last time I left you I think I had just finished Green Eyed Demon by Jaye Wells, Carressed By Ice by Nalini Singh and was wondering what to read next before to big releases I was looking forward to, but we will get to those later ;)


So next I read A Quick Bite by Lynsay Sands with is the first in her Argeneau series, I've never read this series in order and don't plan to as they don't really link together besides the characters, which to me is great as I like this way :) A Quick Bite is about Lissianna and Greg. The story is humorous and thrilling. I loved it :) This book for me gets a 4 out of 5 :)


Then I went onto Lover Mine by JR Ward. This is the 8th book from the Black Dagger Brotherhood series, which I really love I have to say that this is one of my favourite authors and this series also does not have to be read in order. This is the second time I have read this book. I love this book because I love the John Mathews and Xhex come together and how fiercely John fights to get Xhex back. This book gets a 5 out of 5! :)


I also ordered Invincible by Sherrilyn Kenyon and Lover Unleashed by JR Ward at the end of march. They were both released on the same day and I had pre-ordered about a week before. These were the books I was waiting for their release :)


Invincible was dispatched to me early, but ended up arriving a week later and after it had been release in the shops! It took a week to come! And came in terrible condition! The packaging was ripped and torn, the books cover was also bent! I hate that it came in this condition but glad that it had finally arrived.


Lover Unleashed is another story (pun) but the posted it ages after the release date and only arrived 3 days ago!


I read Invincible, and it was great. It is the second book in the Chronicles of Nick series. I love this mini series and how it ebbs from the Dark Hunter series. But all the while I am reading it, my mind is ticking and wondering if it is going to effect any of the Dark Hunters book and if it will change Nick's future at all.
4 out 5 as it is a bit YA for me.


At the moment I am working on a spread sheet for all the books and authors I like. Whilst I have been putting it together I have been looking online to see if my local library have any of the books I want. This didn't go as planned due to my library isn't very ranged. I came across the third book in Jeaniene Frost's Night Huntress series (At Grave's End) but this appeared to be the only one in the series that they had. Lucky for me this was the book I would be reading next.

So I reserved At Grave's End and read it over a weekend, I am also in love with this series as well. Bones and Cat have a great relationship, and it was nice to see Cat's mother came out of her shell a bit. I think I am a fan of Tate though. And Dracula is in it too! :) 5 out of 5 for this one.

I have now started Moon Called by Patricia Briggs and am 88 pages in. I like it so far :) and will post my review once I have finished.

I have put Moon Called on hold for the moment as receiving Lover Unleashed has taken over. I have been waiting ages for this book and it had finally arrived! Only weeks after ordering it! This came in perfect condition unlike Invincible, though the format I have is HUGE! I am already 84 pages in and I only started last night!

Though I complain about my library and their lack of resources I have managed to get quite a few good books to keep me happy for a while.

The books I currently have on loan are:

Magic to the bone - Allie Beckstrom #1 - Devon Monk
Moon Called - Mercy Thompson #1 - Patricia Briggs
Mine to possess - Psy-Changlings #4 - Nalini Singh
The iron hunt - Hunter Kiss #1 - Marjorie M Liu
Touch the dark - Cassie Palmer #1 - Karen Chance
Howling at the moon - Tales of an urban werewolf #1 - Karen MacInerney
Minion - Vampire huntress legend #1 - L A Banks
Love in the time of dragons - Light dragons #1 - Katie MacAlister
Hell fire - Corine Solomon #1 - Ann Aguirre

And I am looking forward to reading them all. :)

Right off we go now, update over and off to read more Lover Unleashed :)
