I’ve decided to post some of my reader recommendations. Considering I get so many of these each week (Thank you!! Keep ’em coming please), I figured I’d share a few of the ones that have been mentioned over and over again, and some that I’m hoping to get to soon.
Since I had so much luck with recent reader suggestions (“Fifty Shades” and the “Thoughtless” books anyone? π hehe!),Β it would be a shame not to highlight a few of them as I get them.
Unfortunately, I can’t always get to them as fast as I’d like, but maybe you guys can, and you can “second” the recommendations?
So here are the latest suggestions:
Audra sent me a VERY insistent recommendation, of a series I hadn’t even heard of. Looking at all of the reviews, I think I need to get on it. She says: “VAMPIRE EMPIRE by Clay and Susan Griffith….. I just really had to share the love for this series–I have not been into a series like this since the Fever series.Β Β So different (not formulaic at all–i am so over that) and exciting and heart wrenching.Β Really heart wrenching.” Book #1 –> The Greyfriar (Vampire Empire, Book 1)
Thanks to Alycia for this recommendation: “Gerry Bartlett… “Real Vampires Have Curves“? It’s a series. It had me laughing with every page. :)”
It does look cute and sort of reminds me of Mary Janice Davidson’s Queen Betsy series…
Oh here’s one that is OFTEN recommended: “I will just say have you read Chicagoland Vampire series…(book#1Β Some Girls Bite: A Chicagoland Vampires Novel) (containing my excitement ) oh jeesh Maryse either Ms. Chloe Neill has to be one of the most brilliant authors or just plain mean (you’ll see after book 4 ). All the characters the friendships love triangles all of it (hint you will want a Chicago deep dish pizza) there is love, betrayal, ups downs, action, drama, sexual tension, anger, everything a girl could want…” – Thanks Patricia. I. Want. To. Read. This!
Here’s one from Juliette: “Have you Read Carrie Vaughns Kitty Norville series? I am in the middle of it and I love it…quick reads but great books!” Book #1 —> Kitty and The Midnight Hour (Kitty Norville)
Christine recommends “… Lili St. Crow’s Strange Angel’s novels.Β I read the series in a row and loved them.Β Couldn’t stop reading.Β The series is paranormal (sorry, no bad boys) but still awesome.Β I totally recommend.” book #1 —>Strange Angels
Lisa AND Denyne both recently suggested Lora Leigh’s Breed series (this one, too, is recommended regularly): “… felt compelled to tell you to read her Breeds series. It’s so good; you’ll go crazy! ” and “It deals more with the Were population, but they are great reads and very very addicting.”
Book #1 —> Tempting the Beast
I third the recommendation for Lora Leigh’s Breed series. I have recommended it to you before, but I will recommend it again!
Not sure, Maryse. Are we over bad boys, hot rock stars, and Doms yet, enough to venture into paranormal again?
Tina… honestly, I am not. LOL! I still want more bad-boys, but I think I’ll intersperse with some paranormal to keep it fresh π π
I second the recommendation for Chicagoland Vampires series. It’s great and I cannot wait for book 5 to come out.
Will definitely give the “Vampire Empire” a read just on the Fever series recommendation. Desperately waiting for 2012 for more bad boy releases.
Sandra… let me know how you liked it π please!
Teehee…..Nov. 1st nearly here can’t wait…….speaking of waiting Stacia needs to hurry up I am in need of “TErrible” is it bad that it has been 3 weeks and I am still thinking “Terrible” thoughts…..uhmmmm nahhhhhhh
When are you getting to D B Reynolds’ vamps in America series? Good stuff. Chicagoland series is also good and next one due very soon – can’t wait even if I was upset with last one (heartbreaking ending). Any who I enjoy recommendations – keep them coming.
As a new fan of your blog, thank you so much for the great recommendations. I am about half-way into the Kitty series and I love it. I am on hold for “Some Girls Bite” and can’t wait.
I look forward to reading more of your recommendations; Cause anyone who is a Fan of Sherrilyn Kenyon, obviously has great taste in books. LOL.
I do!! I have GREAT taste in books! LOL!! Thank you Eleise π
So who was your favorite Dark Hunter?
Have you read The Templar Vampire series by Renee Lyons? Templar Knoghts cursed as vampires. Only 3 books out and I don’t think the author is in much of a hurry to finish the series but these 3 are really good!
