This week's theme is: Great Books I Read Because of a Blogger's Recommendation/Review!
*in no particular order
This one will be a little harder since I can't recall all the bloggers whose reviews it was that convinced me to go out and buy the book! But for the most part I can remember books that I wouldn't have bought otherwise because of the superb reviews!
FIRST GRAVE ON THE RIGHT
by Darynda Jones
I read reviews on this one that totally convinced me to read it and it was awesome! I love Charley! Still have to try to get to the last two and then the fourth one! So behind!
HOUNDED
by Kevin Hearne
Read a good review of this one and continue to see reviews of this series! It's yet another one I fell behind on! I started it with book 1, but haven't made it to the rest yet!
TEMPEST RISING
by Nicole Peeler
I read a real good review on this one when it first came out. I first thought it was YA since it was cartoony--so over that now! Cartoony covers are still quite fun to me! I love this series now too! Jane is just freaking awesome! Not too far behind in this one, just have to read the latest book!
SOULLESS
by Gail Carriger
I was new to steampunk and this might have been my first one too! I read some really awesome reviews--Larissa's was likely one of the first!--that just convinced me I had to read it! And I so love this series! Still gotta read the last one! Are you noticing a pattern yet?
ANGELS' BLOOD
by Nalini Singh
Can't recall which blog I read reviews of this one on! But I was finally convinced that it might be a read for me and boy was it!
BOOKS THAT I AM CONVINCED TO READ...BUT HAVEN'T READ THEM YET!
(I BOUGHT THEM THOUGH!)
And these are really the SERIES as a whole! I have all 4 Nikki Styx books, I have about half of The Others books and I have the 3 books in the Tiger Saga series! That is how convinced I was of the series after reading reviews of them! That and there were sales! ;)
Ooh I really want to read Soulless!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed 4 of your 5 books but I just didn't connect with Tempest Rising. The main character annoyed me :)
ReplyDeleteGreat list :) I need to read the Charley Davidson series, the Iron Druid Chronicles & the Guild Hunter series.
ReplyDeleteI loved the Charley Davidson series, I haven't tried the The Tiger saga series yet but I plan too. I actually bought the Nalina Singh Angel's Blood but haven't read it yet. Read all the Souless series loved it. Christine Warren series are a hit or miss, some I like some I didn't. I have the Terri Garey series on my tbr list my library doen't have them and I'm not convinced on them enough to buy them yet.
