"Simon waited for her to regain control of her emotions. Obviously he'd stomped on her tail by asking what he'd thought was a simple opening question. And he wondered just how much teasing she had received--and why human males would train a female to shoot a gun and then tease her into being angry enough to shoot them." p 81

This week's topic is: Books I Really Liked but Can’t Remember Anything/Much About
*in no particular order
**so last week I made a goof! A huge goof so early in the new year! I did this week's topic last week instead of the one assigned! I think I figured out how it happened too, I was used to The Broke and Bookish not always removing the old topics so I looked to the second one without really seeing the date. And thus here we are! So since I did this week's already, I'm going back to last week's!
10. STRAY by Rachel Vincent--so my memory might be a little rusty with this one and the series at large. I remember some things and being happy with the ending, so that's good!
9. MY SOUL TO TAKE by Rachel Vincent--again, I can't really remember much about this one at all! I have a few little memories about the series as a whole, but again, just bits and pieces.
8. THE GODDESS TEST by Aimee Carter--have almost no memory recollection of this one. Though I did adore it!
7. INTERTWINED by Gena Showalter--it's with great sadness that I add this one to the list! I had full intentions to re-read the series when the final book came out. Then Gena came back and said for the second time it wouldn't be coming out. That was a most soul crushing day indeed! I was totally enthralled with this one! It was practically the first time I read from the male pov and I loved it!
6. THE SCENT OF SHADOWS by Vicki Pettersson--another series I totally fell in love with! Super heroes and villains, action...and other stuff! I can't even remember vagueities. Though I have small memories about the series at large and positively loving it by the finale!
5. NIGHTWALKER by Jocelynn Drake--another series that adored from start to finish and yet here I am not remembering much at all! I can remember loving the relationship between heroine and hero though from the very getgo!
4. THREE DAYS TO DEAD by Kelly Meding--I remember this was one of the first books I ever won from a giveaway! It was a new to me author and I remember falling in love with this series. Then it was cancelled but the author self-pub the remaining books. I STILL need to read the final one which will prove to be problematic for my poor memory!
3. ISLE OF NIGHT by Veronica Wolff--another series I fell quickly in love with though I can't quite remember the series at large much either. There are vague memories but I remember reading the series finale last year was even a bit of a struggle because it had been too long since I read the previous one!
2. HUSH, HUSH by Becca Fitzpatrick--I miss this author! I haven't read anything from her in years. I remember diving into this series at random, possibly because people kept saying awesome things about it. Quickly fell in love because it was just so awesome. Though again, I can only remember pieces of it. Was always sad that the graphic novel version never took off (other than the first installment). :(
1. ICED by Karen Marie Moning--I soo need to get caught up in this series but it's been ages since I read Iced. I even read it late because I knew the next installment was going to be delayed. And here I am with next to no memory about what happened! Eek!
I read two of these, and I think I remember the least about Intertwined, because I have not returned to the series (just slipped through the cracks), but I read all the Soul Screamers books and novellas, so I think I was well entrenched in the world. However, like you, it's bits and pieces, but I do remember how I felt and I especially remember the ending.
ReplyDeleteIced was the last book I read in that series as well so I can sympathize with needing to get caught it. It used to be one of my favorite series out there. I see lots of familiar books here because several are sitting on my shelves.
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser. I have the same issue with lots of books I read. I will like them at the time but my memory of the plot and characters fades. This week I have Look for Me by Lisa Gardner - a thriller from my review stack. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteGood teaser! I'm pretty sure I read Hush, Hush ... but I truly don't remember anything about it.
ReplyDeleteI've read The Goddess Test and Hush Hush (I think?) and yep, I don't remember anything about either except for not liking them very much. Intertwined seems like one I might like, though!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure Etched in Bone is for me. I'm more into women's fiction and family sagas. I do like the excerpt, however.
ReplyDeleteMy Tuesday post features Faultlines.
I haven't read any of these, but I've seen some of them around as others read them. Excellent teaser this week.

Oh my gosh I just read three Days to Dead a couple weeks ago! Loved it! So fun her waking up in another body. And The goddess Test is another one I wanted to read...
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed The Scent of Shadows and the entire series. I'm a little vague on the specifics of each book, but remember the feel/plot of the series overall. Here is my Top Ten Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteHush, Hush is one that sticks in my mind for some reason... maybe cause I read it more than once...?
ReplyDeleteI didn't like Hush, Hush to be honest but some of the urban fantasies you mention are very interesting!
