The Reading Spot

Well this month we started out with moving to a new house.  Then I went on vacation so that helped my reading log because I had many hours of sitting the car to read.  Later, my parents took the kids for about 4 days and I spent a bit of that just chilling out and reading :)

On my car trip I re-read Elizabeth Vaughn's trilogy of Warprize, Warsworn and Warlord.  Still great books!
I read a bunch of neat ebooks this month.
One Night with  Rock Star by Chana Keefer (sweet rocker romance with Christian theme, very good)
Stars, Love and Pirouettes by Roy and Alicia Street
The Princess Problem by Diane Darcy (cute, sweet contemporary fairy tale)
Markings by S.B. Roozenboom (very nice shifter paranormal)
Midnight Playground by Eliza Gayle (re-read)
Forbidden Forest by Tenaya Jayne (very good fantasy, looking forward to next book)
Tucker's Fall by Eliza Gayle
Try Me and Tempt Me by Olivia Cunning
Their Virgin Captive by Shayla Black and Lexi Blake
One Night Forever by Lisa Renee Jones
Ask For it by Selena Blake
Educating Ansley by Cat Johnson
Blood Seduction by Pamela Palmer
Pride's Prejudice by Misty Dawn Pulsipher (an excellent and sweet contemporary retelling of the classic.  Definitely recommend.)
Magic Bites (Kate Daniels Book 1) by Ilona Andrews (re-read)
Magic Burns (Kate Daniels Book 2) by Ilona Andrews (re-read)
Magic Strikes (Kate Daniels Book 3) by Ilona Andrews (re-read)

Because of moving and taking a vacation I did not get much from the library this month but I did read:
Forged in Steele (KGI Book 7) by Maya Banks
Dream Eyes by Jayne Ann Krentz

Wow, I so did not read much this month.  Lots of school meetings and getting ready and starting school, I guess that took up most of my month.  I did read about 9 ebooks but they were mostly short stories, freebies from Amazon.  But so far September is giving me more reading time.

I can only think of two paperbacks that I read in August.  Wow, gotta fix that next month.
Heart Secret (Celta series) by Robin D. Owens (still love this series and it is neat to see the new generation)
Brody (Circle of Eight Ranch book 2) by Emma Lang

Making great use of my library this month, I read:
Deliciously Sinful by Lilli Feisty
Desired by Nicola Cornick
Hush by Cherry Adair
Afterglow by Cherry Adair
Wicked Enchantment by Anya Bast
Cruel Enchantment by Anya Bast
Kiss the Dead (Anita Blake series) by Laurell K. Hamilton
Dark Enchantment by Anya Bast
No One Left to Tell by Karen Rose
Dark Enchantment by Anya Bast
Midnight Enchantment by Anya Bast

All very good books, I enjoyed them very much and it was a nice mix.  A contemporary, historical, 3 contemporary suspense, a paranormal and then a fantasy series all in one month :)  As well as more ebooks that I post at Goodreads (easier to keep track of there).

I have been reading a lot of ebooks lately (haunting the free Kindle books) but these are some of the paperbacks I have grabbed from the library over the last couple of months.

Whispers in the Dark (KGI Book 4) by Maya Banks
     LOVE this series!
Eternal Captive by Laura Wright
     Very good :)
Firelight by Kristen Callihan
     Great new author!  I really enjoyed this book and look forward to the next one.
Spirit Bound by Christine Feehan
     Am enjoying this series, not sure if I like it as much as the original Sisters books though.
Heart and Swords anthology (Celta series) by Robin D. Owens
     The Celta books are always great! This anthology contains stories from all different times on (mostly)  Celta.
Never Love a Highlander (Highlander Book 3) by Maya Banks
     I never read medieval stories but I enjoy this one, maybe it is the author :)
Matthew (Circle 8 Ranch Book 1) by Emma Lang
 
Born to Darkness (Fighting Destiny Book 1) by Suzanne Brockmann

Darkness Bound (Chimney Rock Book 1) by Stella Cameron
     This one was ok, I will try the next one, to see if it gets better.
The Departed (FBI Psychicis Book 2) by Shiloh Walker
     This book comes after The Missing but can be read alone.  I enjoyed it, but I really like psychic stories :)

La Petit Mort by Jasmine Haynes

Jasmine Haynes explores the lust of a former supermodel who needs to finally fulfill a no-holds-barred sexual fantasy. Finding two men to do it with is easy. But are they up to giving her all the pleasure she's been denied?

Rhio's Dancer by Denise Rossetti

Denise Rossetti goes beyond the limits of desire when she pairs a battle-scarred veteran of love and war with a woman who's just as fearless and twice as dangerous. What happens between them is positively combustible. But what a way to go.
