Now, that's my plan. But lately, I'm not reading very fast for some reason, and with True Blood starting up again, who knows! =D

Oh yeah! I am quite eager for Season 3 also! I've been gearing up by watching all of Season 2 on HBO On Demand. I need to buy the DVDs now though since I got paid yesterday. LOL

and listening to on the commute to work

Dee: There are so many great series. I couldn't dedicate my time to just one book a day! I switch between 2-3 sometimes. You see my measly page counts, lol. I get a ton of books read a month, but it takes a month to read them. In so cased like with Infinity I can set aside everything else and read the book in two days.

is one of my all time favorites and it totally got me hooked on Feehan's books. i hope you enjoy it:)
The Sun Witch is also one of my favorites. You have picked some good ones this month.

Just finished and I'm starting .

I'm excited to start CF's Carpathian series. I've been wanting to read it for a long time. Someone I met at the ubs told me it's best to have the novella's on hand, and read them in order b/c I may be lost if I don't. What do you think?

I finished and really enjoyed it. I'm now reading

I've really enjoyed Christine Feehan's Carpathian series and her Ghostwalkers series. Great books!

I've not read this one yet but I've read earlier books int eh series. One thing you need to know about these, they do build on one anotehr. So if you haven't read the first books in the series you will be confused about what's going on and miss out on the earlier events leading to this one.

Michelle wrote: "Danielle wrote: "Michelle wrote: "For the month of June, I'm planning to read:

Yes, I agree you really should read them in order because she builds on the story. I also think that you should read in order because you are introduced to the characters and you will be more emotionally involved if you do. You know what I mean?

Valorie, did you read her Drake sisters series? I also enjoyed those.

Danielle wrote: "Michelle wrote: "Danielle wrote: "Michelle wrote: "For the month of June, I'm planning to read:

Yeah, I see what you mean. Thanks!

Great! I have some of the Ghostwalker books too.

thanks - i'll put the first one on reserve at the library too then!

I love Feehan and Dark Carpthians is one of my all-time favorite series. You can count on them to be consistent - there is always a HEA, the H&H don't fight (there may be tension but not fighting), and the steam factor is high but nothing kinky. I only read one or two out of order and I wish I hadn't. I agree with the other comments - the characters show up again and again so it really helps to know who they are. Enjoy!!

[boo..."

I haven't gotten around to the sisters yet. I hope to soon!

I finished a paranormal mystery. It was pretty good, a little on the slow side. I'm now reading

I just finished Slave, Warrior, Rouge, Outcast, and Fugitive all by Cheryl Brooks, all very good if you like science fiction-y plots with your romance. I am goin to start Lost by Michael Robotham as soon as i get off the computer, but it's not PNR or UF, it's action/suspense.

I finished by Kelly Armstrong last night and now I'm starting .

I am reading Living Dead in Dallas. Its a LIB book. Sometimes I am not allowed to re-check them out. So I MUST read them in a couple weeks. I like Sookie so these books are easy to read at leisure.

Currently reading & starting as a buddy read in another group!

My usual multiple books going. LOL Though at least one of these will be finished tonight, possibly two of them. And maybe at least one more tomorrow. :-)

I'm reading

I just finished and now I'm going to start .

I'm reading a PNR anthology

I've almost finished Night's Cold Kiss, but sadly I'm stuck about 40 pages from the end. Also reading Warprize, which I'm loving!!

I am so far off from my intended June tbr list, that its not even funny! I finished (finally!), and started the other day.

Ooo! Both good books!! I've given up trying to stick to a planned tbr.

I'm starting to wonder why I even bother with tbr lists anymore. I NEVER stick to them, LOL!

I finished it started out a little slow for me but it was still pretty good. I'm now reading and

I finished Witch Blood and not sure what I'm going to start yet.

I decided to read .

Finished , (3 1/2), (4 1/2)

Still Reading and started

I'm finding myself very disappointed with
. It is very dis-jointed, the writing doesn't seem to flow. She jumps from one character situation to the next very quickly. The characters interaction with each other seems very formal and reminds me of bad acting in movies. It is very difficult to pick the book back up again. I'm going to try and get through it, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Eek, hate bad acting. Thanks for the heads up.
