Hmm, well, due to my summer course, I decided to do some rereading, so I'm on the last book of the Bridgerton Series of Julia Quinn's, On The Way to the Wedding. . . and up next will probably be new book Jane Bites Back by Michael Thomas Ford. :) I'm not normally into vampires, but hey, it's Jane Austen, and she's the vampire. Looks really fun. :)

I would a lesser known novel written by Mark Whiteway. It's called Lodestone Book One: The Sea of Storms.

I'm almost done with it and it's like. Such a strange world, yet the characters all feel comfortable as if I've known them since I was a little kid.

It's such a great novel that let's you use your imagination to creat the perfect world.

Right now I'm reading Grave Sight by Charlaine Harris. It is so good...if you like paranormal mysteries.

Hi Denny.
I saw your giveaway posted on Book Blogs at Ning.

I would love to recommend a book to you that is different than the ones I see you have reviewed here.

It is called Death With Interruptions and it is written by Nobel Prize Winner Jose Saramago.

Unique writing style and grammar only enhance the heartbreaking story he tells about death, and her decision to stop taking people's souls.

I recommend this because I see you like paranormal fiction, and while this book does not contain Vamps or Were's, it does take an interesting look at what would happen should death choose to stop doing what she does best...

In honor of his recent passing, and because I feel he is one of the greatest writers the world has ever known.

Two of my favorite authors are Robin Cook and Edward Rutherfurd so I would definitely recommend you try any book by them. ^_^

Robin Cook writes medical thrillers and a book I would suggest from him would be 'Vital Signs'. Edward Rutherfurd on the other hand writes historical novels. I love his book 'Sarum' which is probably one of the longest books I've ever read in my life. c:

My Sister's Voice was really good(I received an ARC). About a deaf girl who was given up for adoption who later in life receives a letter announcing that she has a twin sister(who was raised by her biological parents) and the relationship/questions that form from this situation.

Hi! enter me please, thanks for the chance

I recommend you Troyan Horse by JJ Benítez, No Time for Goodbye By Linwood Barclay end Interview with the Vampire by Ann Rice.

Bryce L. said...

One of my all time favorites. The first book in the series is A Game of Thrones by George RR Martin.

It has some fantasy elements, but it's mostly political intrigue set in medieval times and written by someone who really knows the history well.

Thanks Denny for the fantastic giveaway!

I would like to recommend you a few urban fantasy series/stand alone books if you ahven't read them yet:

- Kelley Armstrong's Women of the Otherworld series is fantastic! Her writing style is flowing and original, funny, this is the series that introduced me to UF, and still remains one of my favourites! Each book is narrated by a different character, so it is varied but always good.

- Ilona Andrews' Kate Daniels series is the other MUST read UF series! Absolutely brilliant and again funny! (I see a trend here that I love my reading to be humourous :-p)

- Sonya Bateman's Master of None was the big revelation of 2010 for me: her writing is fresh and unique, laugh out loud funny!! and exciting, you HAVE to read this one!

- Another author I discovered recently is Laura Bickle she had 2 of her novels publsihed in 2010: Embers and Dark Oracle (under the penname Alayna Williams). I have only read Embers so far, but enjoyed it very much! Another author and series to watch!

I could go on and on but these are truly amazinga nd if you haven't read them yet, you should! :-)
