Book Reviews
I just found out that Urban Fantasy Land has been adding links to my reviews on their website. That excited me. What can I say, I’m easily excited. There are people out who are actually reading my site. There are times I forget how large the book blog community is and that my site is actually seen by different people. Not everyone leaves comments, but that’s okay. Granted I would love it if everyone who stopped by left a comment, but I’ll take what I can get.
While I was checking out Urban Fantasy Land, I found some reviews to books that I haven’t had a chance to read yet. While I plan to get to them eventually, I thought I would let everyone else know about them. There are some novels I haven’t heard of and I’m going to head over to the reviews and check them out.
Books I can’t wait to get my hands on:
- Dear Author, Love Vampires and Thrifty Reader have all reviewed From Dead to Worse by Charlaine Harris – I’m waiting on the library for my copy.
- Graeme reviews Blood Noir by Laurell K. Hamilton – Lucky bastard. It doesn’t come out for another two weeks and I’m dying to get my hands on a copy.
- Lover Enshrined by J. R. Ward
Books I want to read:
- Sidhe Vicious reviews Dead Man Rising by Lilith Saintcrow
- Writers Are Readers reviews Romancing the Dead by Tate Hallaway
- Avidbookreader, Literature Chicks and Loves Vampires reviews Host by Stephenie Meyer
- Rachael reviews Magic’s Child by Justine Larbalestier
- Wicked Melody reviews Art in the Blood (Vampire Files #4) by P.N. Elrod – the first novel in this series is in my stack of books, so I’ll be reading it soon.
- Kimberly reviews
- the Weddings from Hell Anthology with stories by Maggie Shayne, Jeaniene Frost, Terri Garey, and Kathryn Smith.
- Spectre by Phaedra Weldon
- Night Child by Jes Battis.
- Sacred Monsters reviews
- The Anna Strong Vampire Series by Jeanne Stein

Books I have reviewed:
- The Book Girl reviews Wicked Game by Jeri Smith-Ready – See my review here.
- Sacred Monsters reviews
- The Scent of Shadows by Vicki Pettersson – I have previously reviewed this. It’s a good book if you like heroes who classify themselves as superheros.
- Magic Bites by Ilona Andrews – I’ve read this and it is awesome, but for some reason I didn’t do a review.
- Magic Burns by Ilona Andrews – See my review here.
- Love Vampires reviews Embrace the Night by Karen Chance – See my review here.















I am waiting for the library so that I can read From Dead to Worse, and The Host. I really must also finish off the Warlord series by Elizabeth Vaughan because I bought those ones plus Dagger Star!
I already got ‘From Dead to Worse’ and loved it as much as every other Sookie book! The Host is on order and hopefully I will get it sooner rather than later. Same goes for Romancing the Dead and Weddings From Hell. I have already read most of the others mentioned but there are a few I am waiting on or need to check out.
