Nice list! Paolini's last book comes out in November this year. At one stage on GR it was called Shurtugal (sp) but the title has been changed to Inheritance. Can't wait until I get my hands on it. It's definitely been a long time coming!

I know i'm missing out on others b/c i still haven't read any of Jeaniene Frost, Sherrilyn Kenyon, and etc. And yes!! the last book Finally!!!!! So feaking excited!! lol You know who I think I'm going to have to add to.... the author of Hunger Games! her name is !! This book really made an impression on me!

Yeah I love the first two, haven't read Mockingjay yet because I don't want it to end LOL

Kresley Cole's a good one, I love her Immortals After Dark series.

Personally I prefer Kresley Coles Immortals After Dark series so I say start with that one!

Awesome!! Thanks! I will :)

Keri Arthur
Chloe Neill
Lili St. Crow
Rachel Vincent

Sigh... so many good authors, love it!

OH I agree on those Ange and Star! I loved Kelley and i just finished Hunger Games myself and wow! especially book 2! I mean book 1 was epic and 3 had my mouth hanging open lol. Also so excited that only in 22 days the next HON is coming out! BTW have you girl read the lastest JR Ward? I havent gotten a chance and i'm freaking curious what ppl think :D

If you mean Lover Unleashed then no I haven't read it yet. But a lot of my GR friends have and they said it was disappointing.

That the Manny/Payne story was pretty much a subplot for al the focus it was given. But then again, the Jane/V/Butch situation was looked at in closer detail, from where it was kind of left unfinished in Lover Unbound, and I think I remember someone saying they address the issues with that threesome - V's unrequited feelings and they're close relationship etc.

I own it but haven't had the chance to read it yet. My brother has borrowed it and he is the slowest reader on Earth LOL.

Oh and mark this date on your calendar - March 27th 2012! When will be released. I have been waiting for Tohr's book since the first time I picked up Dark Lover! Glad it's finally here, but at the same time kind of sad that his HEA will not be with Wellsie

It's weird how tastes can change over time! I looked at my last list and realized that I have a whole new set of favorites now.

1. John Flanagan
2. Nelson DeMille
3. Lisa Scottoline
4. Meg Cabot
5. Cheryl Klam
6. Louis Sachar
7. Rohl Dahl
8. Lisi Harrison
9. Rachel Maude
10. Kate DiCamillo
