It really cracked me up when I got to the books with Richard and I kept thinking 'You're like an older Jacob andyou're annoying the crap out of me!'

I'm almost finished with book 9..should finish tonight. Wish me luck with book 10 and what sounds like a change to the series

Did Micah appear already?

Yep, Micah appeared in book 10. And I do like him. Maybe it's because he's a wereleopard...and I like cats..specially the big cats? Not sure.

The jury is still out on whether the change to more sex/ardeur/less time on a mystery/problem/crime has bothered me or not. Let me read book 12 and we'll see.

One thing that I've noticed and kind of gets on my nerves...is the detail in everything! Specially clothes. Friends of mine at work are reading the books too and they noticed it also. Detail down to what color the Nike swoosh is

I'm finally getting around to read 'Bound to Shadows' (Book 8 of Riley Jensen Guardian)

Oh, i stopped reading the Anita Blake Series at book 9 or 10

then.. things got bad.

Book 9 was really hard for me to read. She was in New Mexico with Edward and I just had a hard time getting into the book. I think it was the absence of all the guys..specially Jean Claude that I had a problem with

Stay to the Lights · 12-03-2009, 02:50 AM

I barely any of the other guys in the series, except Jean-Claude

Has anyone read Jessica's Guide to Dating on the Dark Side by Beth Fantaskey

I saw it reccommended to me by Amazon, and it sounds pretty good.

I was just wondering if anyone here has read it.

Chrissy · 12-09-2009, 10:09 AM

Never heard from it, bit it sounds like fun.

yeah, here is the description.

Quote:

Jessica Packwood is a normal teen attending Woodrow Wilson High School. Her mathematical nature has even given her a slightly geeky reputation, which is about to change with the arrival of Lucius Vladescu, who seems to be stalking her. She tells her mother about him and learns that she is really a Romanian vampire princess who has been betrothed to Lucius at birth. She knew she was adopted, but this revelation comes as a shock. It is this agreement that has kept rival vampire clans, the Dragomirs and the Vladescus, at an uneasy peace. If the marriage does not take place, war will ensue and threaten the ultimate destruction of Jessica's vampire family. To say that this is a lot for the teen to take in is an understatement. Lucius is gorgeous, old world, tender as well as arrogant, and very overprotective of her. However, she chooses to date Jake, a handsome but rather dull boy. But not all is as it seems in the vampire world, and as the story progresses, circumstances force Jessica and Lucius to take matters into their own hands; in doing so, they examine their true feelings about themselves, family, and duty.

Sounds good

Andie · 02-02-2010, 08:01 AM

Sounds interesting. Thanks for sharing, Jen

Anyone else read a good book lately?

JessicaSimpsonsMomJeans · 02-02-2010, 09:26 AM

I hate when book series get crappy towards the end. You devote all this time for nothing.

bring me home · 02-02-2010, 07:19 PM

I got the newest Anita Blake book. I think it's considered like a short story? It's only 150 pages. I can't help it...I like most of the books..and I love Jean Claude...I keep reading for him

I'm waiting on my boss to finish the Sookie Stackhouse books...so I can start on those.

Nad · 02-05-2010, 11:17 AM

150 pages sound like a short story

Did you enjoy it, Jen?

And I hope you'll get your hands on the Sookie books soon - you need to catch up

bring me home · 02-05-2010, 10:02 PM

I haven't started it yet

I think cause it's only 150 pages

Well, I'm 16 pages into it..and so far so good. Jason showed up and he happens to be my favorite werewolf

Jean Claude

I really enjoyed the earlier books in the series - trying to buy those at the moment so I can do a re-read eventually

Anyone else got a book/series to rec?
