I loved this book, 'Accidentally in Love with...A God?' Very funny and original. I also enjoyed the 2nd book and the third is due out later this year.
Its the same genre as the Sookie books. I highly recommend them. This post has been edited by Banana Pancakes: 22/07/2012, 08:01 PM |

I am reading the Anita Blake series at the moment and finding them pretty good.
Apparently the books go downhill when they hit book number 12 but so far (I'm up to no. 9) they are good easy reading. Just wanted to add, the first book wasn't as good as the rest so don't let it turn you off the series... |

Not sure what the latest Sookie Stackhouse book you read was but Deadlocked came out in May.

The Janna series by Felicity Pulman. My daughter got me onto these books and I loved them. I think the whole series of 6 books is out now.

OMG how did I miss that a new Sookie Stackhouse book is out, another to put on my list, thank you so much, they are one of the ones I am collecting for my actual bookshelf not just the kindle.
I have the Anita Blake series but haven't read it yet and will check out the Janna series now |

Here are some that I have dusted off in the last few weeks (I'm into my urban fantasy at the moment).
The Night Huntress series by Jeanine Frost The Kate Daniels series by Illona Andrews The Guide Hunter series by Nalini Saligh AngelFall by Susan Ee - best $3 buy ever Trust In Advertising - Victoria Michaels. It's a romance if you like romance fluffy books about hot millionaire and a nice girl who hangs in hope of him falling in love with her. I was into fluff romance novels before my craving for urban fantasy took a serious hit a few weeks ago. Bared To You - Sylvia Day. It's almost a copy of Fifty Shades of Grey but both female and male protagonists are seriously ****ed up and the writing is a tad better. I'm hesitant about starting Daughter of Smoke and Bones because I refuse to wait for another series. I'm already waiting on the next books for the series mentioned above plus the Fever series. I hate waiting. It's excruciating. Can anyone recommend a series like The Guide Hunter? I need some more doses of UF featuring Angels. This post has been edited by -Emissary-: 23/07/2012, 09:03 PM |
