Week 18: April 28 - May 4
We're closing in on April! How are you doing?
FYI, full poetry books or books of short stories DO count.
As for me, I'm hoping to finish DEATH OF RILEY by Rhys Bowen and jump right into CITY OF BONES by Cassandra Clare, which I've really been looking forward to reading. And now the library has it for me and YAY! Too bad they don't have the sequel yet!

Just finished Tantalize by Cynthia Leitich Smith and Fantasay Lover by Sherrilyn Kenyon and thus starts my re-read of the Dark Hunter series, be still by beating heart, all I can say is I forgot how yummy these books were and exciting. Tantalize while written for the teenagers still really captured my attention and yet again I spent a simi sleepless night finishing. I forgot a book I had read and really enjoyed was Inkheart (can't remember the authers name and I already gave it back), but it was really well written, I don' think I have come across a book that was so completely gramaticaly and verbaly enthralling since I read Shakespear. Oh yeah the story was good too :) So this brings my total up to 36 books this year. If I keep following my list that is on my page and adding new ones as I find them then I think I will probably hit possibly 100 books this year, wouldn't that be cool.

It would be awesome! I'd say shoot for that! I'm thinking of upping my number to 75...don't know if I can, though!

I just finished Twilight. I'm pretty sure there have been other books also, but honestly I'm still in the thrall of the Twilight. Evil book. I don't usually have the reaction that a book is *too* good. *thinks* I..um...read something else....oh yeah. LOL I read Plum Lucky. That was good too. But not too good. Just right good. And some Manga that was forced on me ;-)
I'm going to try and return to my life, but I think it's been irrevocably altered. Oog. Love/Hate bookship...

Ok so finished "In The Beginning", "DragonSwan", "Night Pleasures" and am on "Night Embrace". Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark Hunter series. For all you vampyre fans this is a great series. Paranormal Romance. Warning: highly explicit love scenes. Just in case a few of you have a qualm or two about reading such subject matter. However I find Sherrilyn's discriptions and her complexity of the Greek, Roman and Atlantian Pantheons very interesting. If any of you are interested in this series, you might find her official Dark-Hunter web site interesting as well. There is a bio on her on the web site and what's interesting is her books stem from her education, she is an ancient mythologies professor or something like that. She's taken the vampyre theme much like Rice did and twisted it to give it an origin that I find truly different and unique and the best part is you find out a little more of who and what Acheron is in each book. By the way his double book comes out in August and I truly can't wait. So this brings me up to 39 books and counting.
