Frost I've read the Night Huntress books up to Vlad, I think, which was about when money got tight and I stopped buying trad-pub.<br /><br />LOL, I bet. You can do it! I had to up my goal last night to 95 because I'm only 6 away and we've got a bunch of time left to go. I can do 11 more books this year.B.E.

That's why it's 4* instead of 5. She could have filled in one detail and still left losts to pull readers into the next book. <br /><br />DIAMOND FIRE by Ilona Andrews (Hidden Legacy series) 4*s is a transitional novella between the end of one trilogy arc in a series and the beginning of the next. I worry the authors will be dipping into YA/NA range as the next characters up are HS/college ages. We'll see, because that next book will probably be a year off as well. <br /><br />Started a 3rd new book: SHADES OF WICKED, Jeaniene Frost (Night Huntress world/Night Rebel series). It's an extension of an established world. I did not do a reread of the other books in the various series set in this world. Not sure how I feel about this one. The characters aren't really grabbing me yet. After this book, not sure where I'll go. I've got some books I want to get into but I'll have to <i>read</i> them, rather than listen. I'm at 231 books of my GR challenge, which I upped to 240 last month. I'm not too worried about hitting my goal. LOLSilver Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15606837105470988646noreply@blogger.com
