I'm not sure what you are trying to recommend to us Swede

I tend to be a bit too subtle at times, right?

Subject: Re: Name your Literary Poison .... Tue Mar 08, 2011 10:58 pm

Just a little, but I think some may not get that smile

Guest

Hehehe

I need to speak up more!

Maybe make the font bigger bounce

Guest

Are they not available from the JCP books website?

Perhaps Swede is a little shy?? :oops:

:P

Guest

They are ALL available at Amazon.... Links supplied above Laughing

Looks like another series to check out, but that will have to wait until after PsyCops (which I'll be starting today), River Marked (on it's way in the post at the moment) and Red-Headed Stepchild (which I have from the library).

Just finished Melissa Marr's Darkest Mercy. Good final book to a great series. Not quite up there with Pale Demon, but not far behind in terms of meeting expectations.

wow good to hear about darkest mercy - i want to start that next week

I'm sorry to see the series end, I still want to know what the future holds for all the characters! Not to say there wasn't any closure, but I just love this world so much. I love that she's not afraid to go to dark places and have characters that have dark aspects to them, but yet you still care so much about them and what happens to them, and not everything is all dystopian and dark and gloomy. Everything is light and shade. Don't want to say much more until you've read it, though

Swede--Your siggy is part of the reason. Can't wait to get to that part! :D

Subject: Re: Name your Literary Poison .... Fri Mar 11, 2011 8:58 am

It's a hard and long journey to that line. Have tissues ready.

Subject: Re: Name your Literary Poison .... Fri Mar 11, 2011 10:03 am

Are the Adrien English books novellas like Psycops or full-length novels.

Your excitment over them is infectious! They are on the tbr list...now to find the time.

consider the series pimped

Ta-dah! Thought this might save time smile

Subject: Re: Name your Literary Poison .... Fri Mar 11, 2011 10:20 am

They are fairly short. Longer than psycops but shorter than a regular novel. Let me see if I can find the word count.

Anyone have any Scottish based series besides Outlander and Highlander suggestions? Historical (fiction or non), romance, adventure, etc. All good...just want some overload before my Scottish trip.

Subject: Re: Name your Literary Poison .... Fri Mar 11, 2011 11:55 am

So apparently I am adding Adrienne English to my already overflowing TBR pile as well!!! :D

My pimping will be a second for the Jennifer Estep Elemental Assassin series.
Also one of my fave series who I know a couple of folks have read but I haven't seen it mentioned yet (I dont think) is Gail Carriger's Parasol protectorate series. Its phenomenal a good mix of historical paranormal romance and steampunk; and it is so funny, I really cant recommend it enough!!

word of warning DO NOT read the excerpts of the next books after Soulless there are spoilers!!!!! star

Oooh I want to go to Scotland and I haven't even gotten to the Outlander series yet; but after Highlander I am obsessed with Scotland!!!! Want a chance to test out that brogue!! Wink

Subject: Re: Name your Literary Poison .... Fri Mar 11, 2011 12:06 pm

It's Adrien. It's a guys name, not a girls name.

Guest

Yes just to warn anyone that needs to be warned as in Psycops the romance is of a m/m variety ... No f involved... F for female obviously Wink

Subject: Re: Name your Literary Poison .... Fri Mar 11, 2011 2:44 pm

AHA, no I didn't know that..... hhhhhmmmm would be my first; but I guess it would help to get me ready for some more QUAY!!!!! bounce
