Whew! I managed to read all of the books and novellas in Nalini Singh's Psy/Changeling series in time for Heart of Obsidian tomorrow. While I enjoyed some books more than others there were none I wholly disliked. I love the overarching rebellion plot. Since the protagonists appear in multiple books—and I know not everyone has read them all yet—I’ll just say my very favorite couples are Lucas & Sascha, Judd & Brenna, Nathan & Tamsyn, Max & Sopia, and Walker & Lara. Honorable mentions to Zach & Annie, Dev & Katya, and Emmett & Ria. I am so looking forward to the next book.
Holy cow! That was some marathon reading!!

I think you and I like the same couples. I was good with Mercy & Riley, because it was a unique coupling with her being so dominant herself. But then there was Andrew and Indigo, then Sienna and Hawke (which I thought was built up to well, but I still was bothered by the age difference), and by the time she got to Tangle of Need, I was getting really frustrated with all the seriously grouchy woman! I never really found anything to like about Adria, and I was pretty "meh!" about Riaz, too.

If I had to pick a favorite, I'd say it was Walker and Lara. But it's really close...Max and Sophie would be a close, close 2nd.

I'm so glad the next book is back to focusing on at least one Psy character.

And it'll be on the reader sometime after midnight tonight!! Sigh, it's going to be hard to be disciplined and not stay up all night to read it.

I liked Mercy & Riley more than I thought I would. I like Drew & Indigo as characters well enough but would rate their romance about average, too.

I read Tangle of Need second (just after Kiss of Snow) and agree with your take (I'd say more but I don't want to spoil it for the others. But even in the books where the romance wasn't working for me, the world building is just so well done and the overarching plot between books kept me going.

No spoilers please. I am having to avoid several places yesterday and today. Everyone is talking about the series and the new book. I don't want to know but tell that to Facebook as it keep trying to put it before my eyes.

Maybe, maybe not. I will rephrase my statement to I will wake before they are begging for breakfast. Which I was not. But I am waiting for my downloads to finish, then I will be listening to this all day. Whoo!!

Me too! I was afraid I would have to avoid this thread. Even the pairings that were mentioned earlier did not sit well with me because, while they're not spoilers, they affect how I read the books as I look at the characters with a new awareness. Maybe use the spoiler thingy when the series is being discussed?

I just checked my Goodreads update page and, yes, it looks like I will have to avoid that for the time being

Sigh. I wish there were as many good SF/Fantasy freebies as there are Romance freebies. It's only the 4th June, and there are already over 80 posts in this thread!
