In this weekly event hosted by One Persons Journey Through a World Of Books where we discuss what we’ve been reading this week (and, occasionally, what we haven’t).
Currently Reading:
- Bitten by Kelley Armstrong – Despite being a devoted fan of her YA work, it has taken me up til now to start on her adult fiction. Bitten is great, although I can definitely tell that Kelley has grown as a writer since she published this.
Finished this week:
- The Touch of Twilight by Vicki Pettersson – It’s official. Joanna Archer is my least favourite heroine – supplanting Faythe from the werecats series. Even though I enjoyed this book and love the verse, I absolutely loathe this woman. Still, it’s a series well worth reading!
Reviewed this week:
- Brother/Sister by Sean Olin
- Two stories from the Mammoth Book of PNR: Pack by Jeaniene Frost and How to Date a Superhero by Jean Johnson
Up next from the TBR pile:
- I think I will finally get around to finishing the Vampire Academy series this week… I only have two books left to read, so if I get cracking now I could have them all done by the time Bloodlines comes out.

Woah, the UK cover for the Zodiac book is so cartoony! I had to reread your post to make sure I wasn’t missing out on some graphic novel action for the series.
I have to say, I started out loving the series and then book 4 sort of fizzled out for me. I only just bought books 5 & 6 last month so I am going to give them a go if only to have closure on the series, but they went from being a BUY THE DAY IT COMES OUT for me to a “meh, I guess I can pick this up since I need something to read”. Sad. ;(
@ Cat – I started out hating the UK covers, but now I’m kinda attached to them and it makes me sad that the UK publishers have chosen to only release the first 3 books. Totally know what you mean about this series fizzling out – but in my case, that happened after book 1 (which was OMG SO GREAT).
Good to hear you’re enjoying Bitten – I’ve had a copy for YEARS but haven’t gotten round to reading it yet. Story of my life 😉
I have not read any of these books. It is refreshing to come across new titles. Enjoy your week and happy reading.
