Book 4 in the Fever series.
Book 4 finds Mac in dire straights and her rescuer is the unexpected sidhe-seer sisterhood. Eventually Barrons shows up and provides the healing Mac needs in a less then traditional method. The walls between worlds has slipped and the world is thrown into chaos. Can Mac, the sisterhood, and her 2 men do anything to fight evil and restore balance? Or is the world as we knew it completely doomed?
A surprising, and sometime frustrating read. But oh so good! Cannot wait for the 5th and final book to come out next month!

Faefever By Karen Marie Moning
Book 3 in the Fever series.
In this book Mac has gotten into the groove of things running the BB&B for Barrons and hunting the sinsar-dubh. But soon she starts receiving pages from her sisters diary that she's been searching for since arriving in Ireland. Each page holding a clue, but she's not entirely sure what the mysterious sender is trying to reveal to her. Also, Mac and Barrons are trying to figure out a way to try to keep the wall up between the human world and that of the dark fae. By the end of the book, Mac finds herself alone and in dire need of help.
Each book gets better and more exciting! Read them!!

Bloodfever by Karen Marie Moning
The 2nd book in Moning's Fever series is also really good, probably better because it's not as slow as the first one. But alas, I am tired(it is almost 2 in the morning, and I did have 7 kids under my roof and in my care today), so you get a straight from the author's website synopsis. Sorry folks. (Not like I think anyone reads this blog anyway. lol!)
"Mackayla Lane's ordinary life underwent a complete makeover when she landed on Ireland's shores and was plunged into a dark, deadly realm unlike any she ever imagined. In her fight to stay alive, Mac must find the Sinsar Dubh—a million-year old book of the blackest magic imaginable that holds the key to power over both the worlds of Fae and Man. Pursued by Fae assassins, surrounded by mysterious figures she knows she cannot trust, Mac finds herself torn between two deadly and irresistible men: V'lane, the insatiable Fae, who can turn sensual arousal into an obsession for any woman; and the ever-inscrutable Jericho Barrons, a man as alluring as he is mysterious."
And in my own words, read it, despite the cheesy synopsis I just posted. I'm going to climb my pregnant, tired butt into bed after a potty pit-stop. And maybe, just maybe, tomorrow I'll feel like doing the rest of the books in my own words. Otherwise, be prepared for the same kind of entry.

Darkfever (Fever Series, Book 1) by Karen Marie Moning
This is a book that I got one Free-Friday for my Nook. That was months ago and I pretty much forgot about it. My best friend urged me to give it a-go and I decided to take her advice. And I was NOT disappointed. I actually became quite addicted. These books have stayed heavy on my mind since starting them. I read four books in four days and got caught up on the series. Now I am impatiently waiting for the fifth book to come out and download onto my Nook as it's already been purchased.
The main character of the book is Mackayla(A.K.A, Mac), whom I don't actually like. Mac has a sister whom she's very close with who goes off to college in Ireland and is gruesomely murdered while abroad. Mac discovers a frantic message on her cell phone that her sister had left her moments before she was murdered, and that sets Mac on a mission to go to Ireland and find the murderer herself. Along the way she discovers she's not the ordinary southern gal she thought she was, but she actually harbors the rare gift of sidhe-seer(Seeing the Fae Folk). Through many adventures, angst, tension, and temptation, you get a rollicking good tale with a great cast of characters(excluding Mac, but then again I just don't like that kind of person).
I suggest you get this series and you read it now! It is soooo fun and good and just plain addicting. And each book is pretty short(less then 300 pages), which is disappointing to me, but then again some people prefer that I suppose....

Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare
I have several books to catch this blog up on. Bare with me.
Clockwork Angel is the first in Clare's Infernal Devices series. Which is a sort of prequal, if you will, to the Mortal Instruments series. I love the Mortal Instruments series, and I also loved this book. I can not wait for the 2nd one to come out next year.
In this book you meet Tessa whom has the special ability of shape shifting. She's been kidnapped by the wicked Dark Sisters and is being trained for some dark, nefarious purpose unbeknown to her. She is soon rescued by a handsome and mysterious boy named Will who has some interesting abilities of his own. Soon Tessa finds her self in a sanctuary that she's all to weary of and learns all about shadowhunter and the Nephilim.
An exciting preternatural adventure with a wee touch of steampunk. This book has a lot less emphasis on the romance, but hopefully that's not the only reason you would want to read Clare's books.

Divine Misdemeanors by Laurell K Hamilton
So I finally got around to reading the most recent addition to the Merry Gentry series. It wasn't my favorite, but it was entertaining and I want to read the next one, whenever that's supposed to come out...
As you know(and for those who don't know) Merry Gentry is a fairy princess who lives as an exile of the fairy community, in LA as a private investigator and with her own harem of sexy fairy men. In this book Merry is pregnant with twins by 6 different daddies, and is investigating murders involving the demi-fay... that's the tee-tiny fairy's that look like bugs. As with all Merry books there is a lot of drama, a lot of love, and a lot of sexing it up.
If you like Merry Gentry books, then read it. If you don't want to read what boils down pretty much to porn with a plot, then avoid this whole series.

Last Sacrifice (Vampire Academy, Book 6) by Richelle Mead
The last book in the Vampire Academy series... sniff sniff. So bittersweet. I was so excited to get my hands on this book, but I am so sad that it's over. Love the story, the characters, everything! And this book didn't disappoint! Mead did a bang up job wrapping up the series. Of course it couldn't all be shiny and pretty, but it was well done and I'm pretty happy with the result! I just really hope she doesn't call it quits for these characters!
In book 5, we found Rose arrested for the murder of Queen Tatiana. So in this novel it's a mad dash to prove her innocence, find the real killer, and discover who the illegitimate Dragomir love-child is. Early on in the novel the excitement starts with a plot that breaks Rose out of jail and gets a real investigation going. Along the way Rose picks up unexpected characters and has to face her sticky love life situation. It ends with a surprise killer and with almost everyone getting a happy ending.
Mead wraps it all up in a pretty bow, leaving this fan pleased and disappointed all at the same time. PLEASE Richelle, write at least one more book to let us see what the future holds!!!

Persuader by Lee Child
And another Jack Reacher novel down. Loved this one loads. Gruesome, exciting, and so much fun!
In this novel, Jack Reacher finds himself employed off the records by the DEA to catch an illusive smuggler. Placed within the enemy hive, Reacher is playing the part of a tough as nails bodyguard, only to discover that it's not the DEA who needs to be on the case but the ATF. With mutilations, shoot outs, muscle head psychos, and kidnappings, there is never a moment without suspense. Oh and there is quiet an education on firearms through out the book!
Going to be starting another Jack Reacher novel very soon! Can't wait!
