ADULT DISCUSSION HERE, SO TRY TO KEEP IT CLEAN! UM NO, WAIT! IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED, LOOK AWAY NOW!

Okay, here is a place to discuss what you are reading, ask for recommendations and complain about the writing.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, so please play nice

I was wondering if anyone was reading. Also looking for rec's ladies. I dunno what I want to read.
FF or Books. I'm easy.

I am currently reading the latest book in Felicity Heaton's Angel series. Half way through. So I will need something soon.

So I tend to love the funny vampfics.

Bella with some backbone. A cynical smart ass who attracts the attention of the local brooding vampire, Edward Cullen. AU/OOC. Rated M for strong snark and lemons galore. Nominated for three Tomato Soup Awards!
Twilight - Rated: M - English - Humor/Angst - Chapters: 31 - Words: 130,332 - Reviews: 581 - Favs: 556 - Follows: 391 - Updated: 12-16-11 - Published: 5-3-09 - Edward · Bella - Complete

There were lemons.  And Jesus is a vampire.  That whole three days, rising from the dead thing? Sound familiar?  However, there were a lot of SPaG errors, some of which added to the humor of the story. 

Though when I think about it? It killed my kindle.  Right on the page where Jesus walks in and says "Let's have an Orgy!"  Sigh.  I must have missed the lightening bolt or something....

OMG I have just read a mystery which also had a strong theme of Domestic Discipline.  My question is, are these people for real?  The male lead, punished the female lead because he had disobeyed him (you what?).  He spanked her until her bum was red and then took a wooden ruler to her, followed by a beating with a cane. Just to make sure she understood the lesson he finished off with a belt.  It was only once she was covered in welts from arse to heal that he was content.  Now call me naïve but that sounds like straight up abuse to me.  The female however, felt “loved” because although she was in great pain she knew he had punished her because he loved her.  Seriously???

I agree, this is not my cup of tea for sure.  It does sound like abuse.  And some people like that *cough masochists cough* I guess.  But I see a lot of teen fics with DD that just kind of squick me out. They put the warnings on it.  But it sounds like BDSM which should not be in a teen fic. 

I've never read any HP fanfiction, but I heard that the series by G. Norman Lippert, which is based on Harry's son James, is good. It's the only HP ff I've DL'd, but haven't tried it yet.

EDITED TO ADD from the web site [my italics]: "these stories are not written by J. K. Rowling (obviously) they, and other such stories, have been sanctioned by her, so long as they are respectful and appropriate for children. I have been in contact with Ms. Rowling's literary agency (after they were asked by the press if the James Potter stories and websites were secretly her creation). They have been very cordial and encouraging, even going so far as to actively deny erroneous press allegations that Ms. Rowling intended to sue me. For that, I thank them!

"For what it's worth, I have worked very hard to keep the James Potter stories true to Ms. Rowling's canon and literary style, while obviously injecting my own original themes, characters and settings. For the true canon-police, there are indeed some errors and mistakes. For those who merely love the Harry Potter stories, however, I don't expect that such trivialities will detract from your ability to enjoy my tales."

Thanks for this.  I love the HP fandom.

Sorry....just trying to make up for lost time. I use to be the dealer, but lately I suck. Well that wasn't the best words, but it's true anyway you want to take it.

Oh no, don't ever be sorry for that!!!  Please feel free to be as enabling in the pretty Rob pics as you can!

Anyone read Sins of a Piano Man?

End Pointe?

Creatures of Habit ?

Whatcha like or didn't like

Or is there another Book series like Black Dagger Brotherhood?

I have read En Pointe which is incomplete and strong medicine, I really enjoyed it even though bits made me cringe.
Sins of a Piano Man is beautifully written and well worth checking out. 
Creatures of Habit  is on my tbr list.

I liked Creatures of Habit. A good read.

All this talk of vampwards have me remembering the good ole days...like Hide & Drink by Savage7289. Oh, and I really enjoyed Just4ALE's An American Vampire in Chicago series.

Talking to my bbf, it sounds like I will enjoy Creature of Habit. Both POV. Tortured Edward will do anything to get over his thirst to be with her and then has to protect her.

Someone over on a blog rec'd The Endurers Series. When they said I would love them like my sexy fukc hawt leather wearing vamps I dl them right away. Yeeeeh not so great. The Only thing the Endurers had in common with my boys was that they're tall, built and wear leather. The writing was shocking and you can forget about the lemons just eww
For the brave: like seriously! Does that sound erotic? Finished book 1 but deleted the other 2.

I got burned out on BRB too. Love Zsadist.
Book 1 ok
Book 2 -better
Book 3 - LOVEEEEED
Book 4 ok.
Never made it past that. I was expecting each book to get better and better. I skimmed all the lesser parts. When 4 wasn't as good as 3...I stopped. Of course I read all of them back to back. Maybe that is why I got burnt out.

My fav is Rhage (book 2) the way he loves his Mary is so very self-sacrificing and totally romantic, Z is a close 2nd.

Anyone read anything by Larissa Ione?
She just published a vamp one and I have many of her books on my TBR list.

Larissa Ione's bestselling Demonica series has captivated fans with its sensual blend of dark passion and demonic fury. Now she takes you to another intoxicating world—where a dangerous clan of wild vampires rules the night...

Bound By Night

A WOMAN OUT FOR BLOOD

Nicole Martin was only eight years old when the vampire slaves rose up in rebellion and killed her family. Now she devotes her life to finding a vaccine against vampirism, hoping to wipe out her memories—along with every bloodsucker on the planet. But there’s one thing she cannot destroy: her searing, undeniable attraction for the one man she should hate and fear the most . . .

A VAMPIRE OUT FOR REVENGE

A member of the renegade vampire MoonBound Clan, Riker is haunted by demons of his own. When he recognizes Nicole and remembers how her family enslaved his loved ones, his heart burns for vengeance. But when he kidnaps Nicole and holds her in a secret lair, his mortal enemy becomes his soul obsession, his greatest temptation, and, perhaps, his only salvation—a hot-blooded lover who could heal him with her touch . . . or bury him forever.





Nicole Martin was only eight years old when she narrowly survived a massacre: her family’s vampire slaves rebelled and killed everyone in her household. Twenty years later, Nicole now dedicates herself to finding a vaccine against vampirism…and eradicating the gruesome memories that give her nightmares.

Riker, a member of the wild vampire Moon Clan, is haunted by his own demons—his wife Lorraine had been captured and enslaved by the Martin family. It was during a botched escape attempt that she was killed, along with their unborn child. Still wracked with grief and anger, Riker is now fueled solely by the desire to rescue vampire slaves…and slaughter their owners.

When Riker stumbles upon Nicole in a chance meeting, he immediately recognizes her as a member of the Martin family that once enslaved his wife—and she recognizes him as the wild vampire she saw kissing a pregnant slave in the moments before her violent death—an image that has haunted her dreams for years.

When Riker kidnaps Nicole and they spend a night together in a cave on the way back to his clan, suddenly they begin to realize that they aren’t as different from one another as they may have thought—and they’re finding themselves drawn to one another…
