A Few Recommendations By Marina@Chimera Book Group

Nightlife By Rob Thurman

Urban Fantasy, would highly recommend.

Call Leandos is only half human. His fathers dark lineage is stuff of nightmares, and he and his entire otherworldly race are after Cal.

Cal and his half brother, Niko have managed to stay a step ahead for 4 years but now Cal's dad has found them again. Cal is about to learn why they want him, why they've always wanted him. He is the key to unleashing their hell on earth. The fate of the human world will be decided in the fight for Cal's Life.

Personal Demon By Kelly Armstrong

Tabloid reporter Hope Adams has unique traits. She is half demon, and she's inherited a gift for seeing the past she has a hunger for chaos. So when chosen by a dangerous group for a dangerous mission, she jumps at the chance.

Head of the Powerful Cortez, Cabal has a little problem in Miami, a gang of wealthy offspring of supernatural's is getting out of hand and Hope is the one t infiltrate.

Written from two different Character perspectives, it's different, a good strong story. paranormal romance but is definitely not too much or too overdone.

The Re-formed vampire Support Group By Catherin Jinks.

Although Suitable for young adults, not too soppy, romantic, or written directly for the teen audience, it's actually a very good read.

Fifteen year old Nina has been a vampire since 1973, and she's hated every minute of it. It has really cramped her style and social life, not to mention the boredom.

Things take a turn for the worse when a member of her therapy group is killed by unknown vampire slayer. Nina and her fellow vampires set out to hunt down the culprit and soon find themselves caught in a dangerous quest full to the brim with thugs, guns and werewolves.

Perhaps there's more to being a vampire after all...

Awful Library Books

fantastically gleeful find yesterday of Awful Library Books. A website of obsolete, outdated and often unintentionally hilarious books weeded out from libraries or found in used book stores. Well worth a look and a chuckle and a little procrastination time.
