Romance Readers Reading Challenges discussion

Gosh - long waiting list? or someone is taking a while to read it! It is quite long, so maybe that is it :)

Yes, let me know Ari - I'd be interested to hear your feedback.

Anya -
Just wanted to let you know that I finished another one of your recommendations: I just finished reading Impulse. It was a good read, but nowhere near as superb as As You Desire

I finished Breaking Dawn today *****.. I really loved it. Now looking forward to the movie.

I just finished Dark Lover by JR Ward and I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised. I always get a little hesitant when soooo many people really like a book because then I feel like I have to enjoy it and then I don't. But I really did enjoy this book. I liked Wrath and Beth. I liked the premise of the vampires and their background as well as the lessers. I will probably continue with the series.

I just finished .. Such a beautiful story!!! It's definitely going on my keeper shelf (but now I need an actual paper copy to go on my actual wooden shelf, lol). I adored it! 5*, and I totally fell in love with Harry and his unswerving love for Dizzy:-D Thank you so much for recommending it!!

I was the same with this series - I put off reading it so long and now I'm glad I did and also not glad...glad because I don't have to wait the super long time for the next book to come out...but kicking myself because it was a great series ;)

I finished my book, . Thanks for the pick Megan!

All I've read of Nora Roberts were the Circle Trilogy and Sign of Seven trilogy. I'm glad to get started on another one!

Kami, I finished Halfway to the Grave in the car today. (I really liked the audio version!) Thank you so much for getting this one off my TBR shelf! I loved it and went straight into the second book!

I am still waiting to get that one from the library. I put it on hold.

I hope you like it as much as I did! Be warned though, you will want to go right into the second book!

Aleksandra,

I finished one of your picks for me-A Taste of Magic. I hate paranormal chick-lit but this book actually wasn't that bad. It was definitely better written than a lot of books I've had the misfortune to read in that genre. Thank you very much for rec'ing!

Oh and Becky

I forgot, I read two weeks ago and loved it as well!! Thanks for the rec!

Sandy,

I have finally finished The Secret History, thank you for recommending it, as alone I would never probably have picked it up. It was a good one, I liked it a lot. I had a difficult time deciding whether to go for a 3stars or 4stars :) I thought it was worth 4stars with the effort, the writer made...

LOVED it, and have now finished read her Rose Hunters trilogy (#1 & 2 were amazing!) and So Enchanting, lol (you got me hooked!)

Looks like I'm the last one to post(?)

Anyway, I finished yesterday, but only just got on to post it. It is an anthology of four romance stories centered around the Holy Grail. They take place in four different time periods, and all revolve around having to find the grail or return it to safety. It was an interesting take on the legends.

It was good, but not amazing. These same four authors also wrote , and it was also good, but not astounding. I originally bought these because they include stories written by Jo Beverley. But I think I like her other books better.

I'm glad you enjoyed it! This is one that I want to re-read. It's been about 8 years since I first read it. Time sure flies!!

I am very late, but it took forever for my library to get my pick to me. Finished Counterfeit Magic and enjoyed it very much. Thank you, Joyce!

Congrats Alberta and Tatiana!
