Pulled an almost allnighter for some juicy reads, "Bloodshot" by Cherie Priest and "American Vampire" by Jennifer Armintrout…both very good but Bloodshot basically blew me out of my socks.
I love this challenge!!!!

Just posted about Betrayal! An amazing and intense book for YA. So, glad I can cross it off my list! I've already read five books this month and I'm on my sixth! This is probably the most I've read in a month! Can't wait to see how much I read this year!

Finished This Side of the Grave. Really enjoyed it and can't wait for One Grave At A Time. Jeaniene Frost never disappoints
Reply
Finished Etched In Bone. Man what an ending. Can't believe I will have to wait until 2012 for book 5. This is torture! Great book nonetheless. Highly recommended.
Reply
Just posted my review of Reunion by Jeff Bennington! Very interesting perspective which touches on some of the more horrific social issues!

Posting my reviews for Master of None by Sonya Bateman and Magic Strikes by Ilona Andrews. Both were really, really good!
Reply
6 out of 5 stars for Blood Destiny by Tessa Dawn. Oh yeah, I thought it was that good
Reply
Just reviewed Dark Descendant by Jenna Black. It was very, very good!
Reply
Added Dead Reckoning (Sookie Stackhouse #11) by Charlaine Harris. Better than book 10 (Thank God), but still not nearly as great as other previous books. Man I am scared for the next two books to be honest. Is Harris going through a phase or something? Nonetheless, 3 out of 5. Good, but not good enough.
Reply
HIGHLY recommend The Tale of the Vampire Bride!!!!
Reply
Just added The Dead Girls' Dance, book 2 in the Morganville Vampires series. Really liked this one. I thought it was better than book 1. Can't wait for Midnight Alley
Reply
Just added Narcissus in Chains (Anita Blake #10). Really loved it, actually one of my favorites in the series. I know, I know, but I don't see the problem with it. Can't wait to start book 11
Reply
Added Midnight Alley, book 3 in the Morganville Vampires series. Really loved this one. Definitely loving Myrnin, can't wait to see how he will be like in the books to come.
Reply
3 stars on Quarter Square, don't be put off by that, it was a great book. Just a book one is the series I think all book ones have a lag.
Reply
Feast of Fools (Morganville Vampires #4) added. Another 5 out of 5 stars. So loving this series
Reply
Just added Goddess with a Blade by Lauren Dane. Liked it, didn't love it. But I think it is still worth reading nonetheless. Just don't expect romance
Reply
Ok added my ARC review for Rebirth by Sophie Littlefield. Just as great as Aftertime. Can't believe there will only be one more book. Not enough! Great book nonetheless, hope people get it when it releases next month
Reply
Added book 5 of the Morganville Vampires. The ending nearly did me in. So insane. Also this is my 24th book. Woohoo! Now time to add 24 more LOL!
Reply
Just added Feed (Newsflesh #1) by Mira Grant. One of my favorites for sure. And man what an ending! Highly recommended.
Reply
I just posted Endurance by Jack Kilborne. Very campy horror.
Reply
Just posted / linking my early review of Blood Secrets by Jeannie Holmes! — GREAT!!
Reply
Posted my review of Deceived By The Others by Jess Haines! Love this series!
Reply
Added Carpe Corpus, book 6 in the Morganville Vampires series. God I am loving this series. So glad to almost be caught up. But I think this one is one of my favorites from the series so far. I'll let you know because Fade Out (book 7) might take that away. Looking really good
Reply
Added Seduced by Moonlight by Laurell K. Hamilton. I really liked it, some parts were a bit of a filler, but still worth reading
Reply
Just added Visions of Heat by Nalini Singh (Psy-Changelings #2) and Fade Out (The Morganville Vampires #7) to the list. Both books were amazing. Loved Visions of Heat. Vaughn is one of my new book boyfriends. God he is hot!!! Great books. highly recommended.
Reply
I just added Teeth, edited by Terri Windling and Ellen Datlow. I recommend this book to everyone!
Reply
Added Predators of Darkness by Leonard D. Hilley II. Gave it 6 out of 5 stars. I loved it soooo much! Going to start book 2 very soon

Reply
Hello everyone,
I just posted Horns by Joe Hill. I loved this book!
Reply
Added Darklight (Wondrous Strange #2) to the list. Really good book, but plenty left hanging. Can't wait to start the last in the series, Tempestuous. Poor Sonny
Reply
Just posted a review of the House of Night series on my blog Glitter in the City.
Great series, long review of all 8 published titles.

Glitter in the City xx

Yay! Finally read Moon Called (Mercy Thompson #1) by Patricia Briggs. Definitely on the favorites list. Mercy is amazing. Can't wait for the next book. A must read
Reply
Just added Fallen (Fallen #1) by Lauren Kate. I liked it, but it didn't blow me away. Too slow and I kind of wanted to punch the female lead a few times LOL! Nonetheless, not awful. I hope there is more in book 2.
Reply
Posted my review of Hard Bitten by Chloe Neill! Ugh! What a surprise!
Reply
I just posted Salem's Lot. I had read it a long time ago, but I just listened to the audio version.
Reply
Finally getting back to my reviews, just added Black Heart Loa (Hoodoo #2) by Adrian Phoenix. She has done it again. Seriously, Phoenix can't do wrong in my opinion. This book was epic. Can't wait for book 3.
Reply
Added book 2 of the Blood Curse series, Blood Awakening. Just as incredible as Blood Destiny! Gave it 6 out of 5, WOOHOO! Seriously, it needs to be checked out by everyone, well by adults. It is still as disturbing as book 1.
Reply
Just realized I used the wrong link. Eep. I used the one to sign up for the challenge instead of to my book review. Sorry. Could you change it for me? It's Melissa(MyWorld…in words and pages)/Hunter by Skyla Dawn Cameron.

Dumby me. Thank you!!!
This is the second book in the Demons of Obliviion series.
Reply
Man I had no idea how behind I was. Just added Blood Law by Jeannie Holmes and A Touch of Crimson by Sylvia Day. Both were fantastic read, Blood Law was more UF, but both are so worth reading. Hope everyone loves them
Reply
Just added Nightshade by Andrea Cremer. LOVED IT! I burrowed it from the library, but I am definitely going to get the hardcover. Hope to get Wolfsbane this weekend *fingers crossed*
Reply
Holy crap! My epic fail for the week. Just read my last comment and saw I put "burrowed" instead of "borrowed". With all the books I read, you would think I would know how to spell or when to use the correct words in a sentence *shakes head in shame* Nonetheless, added Immortalis Carpe Noctem by Katie Salidas. Really good vampire book. Definitely want book 2 now LOL!
Reply
Added The Last Ride of the Reverse Cowgirls by John Anderson. Amazing read and an amazing ending. I really hope there is a sequel *fingers crossed*
Reply
Just added the linky for my review of The Fallen Star bi indie author Jessica Sorensen. Poor presentation but the idea is original and interesting!
Reply
Loved Miss Peregrine's – a book I almost didn't read!
Reply
There! Just posted my reviews so far this year!

Finally getting these in. Just added:
-Where Demons Fear to Tread by Stephanie Chong
-Three Days to Dead by Kelly Meding
-Tempestuous by Lesley Livingston
All the books were pretty great. Stephanie Chong is definitely an author to keep your eyes open for. I finally read Three Days to Dead and it was incredible. Definitely one of my favorite UF, just amazing. Loved Tempestuous, a great YA trilogy. I hope there is more because the characters are so complex especially Fenn. Fenn!!!
Reply
Just added five books:
-Torment (Fallen #2) by Lauren Kate (mixed that one up, sorry)
-Paranormalcy (Paranormalcy #1) by Kiersten White (AWESOME!!!)
-Under-Heaven by Tim Greaton (a very beautiful paranormal story)
-Mind Games (The Disillusionists Trilogy #1) by Carolyn Crane (one of the best books I have read in a while)
-Avenger's Angel *The Lost Angel #1) by Heather Killough-Walden (amazing PNR with angels and vampires and one of the greatest villains ever!)
Woohoo! That makes 50 now!
