But thank you for letting me know.

Thanks to the generosity of our wonderful thread I made some good headway with my purchases, thank you for your help, I sincerely appreciate it.

ETA Anemic Oak posted about the feature 'The Day He Kissed Her" by Juliana Stone, I just bought this because I just read the first in the series [The Summer He Came Home] and really enjoyed it, would give it a solid 4 stars.

Yeah, I tried the code again just now and it wouldn't work anymore. Sorry about that.

Still free: Silo 49: Going Dark by Ann Christy. A Wool Universe story.

Wanted to mention that I read this and it was Fantastic. I highly recommend to Wool fans.

Anyone reading The King by J.R. Ward today? I'd forgotten how much the "e'er"s and extraneous "h"s drive me nuts... but I love how much action is going on in the storyline.

Atunah · 04-02-2014, 10:42 AM

I still have to read the others in the JR Ward series. I only read the first two. I wasn't sure if I could handle more of the baby powder, the weird names and the brand stuff. And those boots. The story itself I liked, just all that other stuff that drove me nuts. I am also afraid to read on because I think I read someone that someone in a couple dies at some point or something like that?

Maybe one day I'll continue. I am always so behind on most series that its hard for me to talk about anything.

It's next on my list! It will probably be a few days until I start it because I'm still reading R. Lee Smith's Heat and it's another loooong one.

It looks like the last thing they published under it was in October 2013 and I see from the cover flat image of the upcoming new Michelle Sagara "Cast" book that they've moved those books to Mira. It looks like the upcoming new CE Murphy "Walker Papers" book will also be Mira.

Yes. I have been told this by several LUNA authors ( C.E Murphy is among them.) I think they are restructuring their PNR/ Fantasy offerings.

I know the feeling!!! I have read the first 4 in that series, and do plan to keep going. I have so many series that I am "behind" on.

I was doing some updating in Fictfact.com.com the other day and I have 200 series logged in there. I think I only finished one series, Sookie and then there was another added. I had thought I finished the Fever series by Moning, but then it got spawned into the Dani series. I think I am only up do date on a handful of series while waiting on the next. Most I am many years behind.

I just don't have enough hours in the day and then I keep getting distracted by the shiny and new and other recommendations. I think its very clear now that my puny human lifespan is not long enough to every finish all the series I started. Does that keep me from starting even more? Nope.

Me, too. And I can't count on two hands all the series that started years ago, that I want to read, and haven't even started.

I had advised myself not to start any new series this year....but one of the characters in my head

saw a good recommendation on goodreads from a friend, and the next thing I knew, I am reading a new series.

I am hoping to restrain myself from starting any MORE.

<<< *stands in line with Atunah and booklover6*
Add me to that list of "never-ending-never-even-started-have-too-many-series-but-keeps-adding-more"

apesmom · 04-02-2014, 02:15 PM

It's a little hard to avoid new series these days. I just looked at the last 100 books I added to Calibre, both paid and free. Only 13 of them aren't already part of a series and that's likely to change as books published later make then part of a new series.

Not very many stand alones anymore these days.

200! Wow! I could not keep that many straight in my head.

@apesmom - I'd love to know if Heat is as good as LHG. And thank you again for the kobo coupon that allowed me to buy The King! $15.99 is crazy for an ebook.

I can't either, which is why I have fictfact.

. If you mean can I keep the characters straight? Its amazing what I can fit in there. Scary sometimes. I do need triggers now and then, but usually when I start reading another installment, even if there are 2-3 in between, it all comes back to me.

I wish I could apply this immense storage capability to every day life. I can't often remember what I ate for lunch 2 days earlier, but I can remember what characters did going years back. What is wrong with me

I usually have to read a few pages of the end of the previous book to jog my memory.
But overall I know what you mean, for me it's song lyrics. I can't remember what I had for lunch yesterday, but can still belt out a song from the 70's,80's etc.

ETA, ANOTHER Kobo contest starts today! Great timing for me, hopefully I can finish off my Mom's library.
