I took a short break from YA and read some adult urban fantasy instead - Blood Games by Chloe Neill, the tenth book in the Chicagoland Vampires series.
As the "tenth book" part probably indicates, this is a series I enjoy a lot (I'm not usually one for vampire romance, but I like the characters and the plots / mysteries / crime solving / politics parts of these books appeal to me a lot, and while this is probably a little heavier on the romance aspects than many other urban fantasy series, it's still definitely UF and not paranormal romance). And this book was no exception - other than the first couple of books and one in the middle that I felt was weaker, they've all felt solid to me.
I gather there's three more books to look forward to, so I'm glad it's still going strong and not losing its oomph yet.
Not sure what to read next - just got three YA eARCs from NetGalley, all books that look right up my alley (and one of them I've already preordered in hardback), so probably one of those. Hmm.
