  4. I think that "Lover Mine" by J.R. Ward was my favorite book this year but I had a lot of really good ones. Some by unknown authors that were fantastic was "Call of the Wilds" by Gale Stanley and "Fire Burn & Cauldron Bubble" by H.P. Mallory.

    I unfortunately wasn't able to get too much reading done this year, but my favorites so far are definitely Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins and The Iron King by Julie Kagawa. I really can't wait to read Mockingjay and The Iron Daughter. I'm going to the book store today so hopefully I'll get them.

    Thanks for the contest!

  9. I've read so many great books this year but i'd say Chloe Neill's Some Girl's Bite, Friday Night Bites and Twice Bitten (Chicagoland Vampires Series) stand out among the others. I just love all the characters so much and feel really involved when i read the books. I even have a Cadogan House travel mug and coaster. I'm a nerd! :-D

    The book i'm most looking forward to is Alpha by Rachel Vincent, its the last EVER in the Shifter's Series *cry* and i can't wait to see how its gonna end and i will probably cry for real which i dont generally do at books! ;-)

    I've read some fabulous books this year. I just finished Kelly Gay's Better Part of Darkness and I can't believe I waited so long to read it, it was fantastic. Some of the other books I really enjoyed are Jennifer Estep's Spiders Bite, Nicole Peeler's Tempest Rising, Jaye Wells' The Mage in Black, Laura Bickle's Embers, Kelly Meding's As Lie the Dead, Gail Carriger's Changeless and Gini Koch's Touched by an Alien.
    There are some great books released lately that I must have and three that I'm dying to read are Nicole Peeler's Tracking the Tempest, Gail Carriger's Blameless and Ann Aguirre's Killbox.

  20. I just realized I wasn't following your blog...had it on Google Reader for a while. Shame on me!!! I'm following now though. :)

    Let's see favorite book this year..... I've read so many how to narrow it down to one....Can't do it. There have been so many new and great books that have come out. Split and Bring On The Night are in my top five.

    Most anticipated: As of right now probably the last of the Vampire Academy series. The ones I really want to read don't actually come out until next year :(

  31. Great Contest!

    My favourite book that I have read this year was just recently, It was "Incredible Dreams" by Sandra Edwards. Just amazing.

    Books that I look forward to read are
    -The Hungar games (Yes, I know...I sadly admit i have not read those yet)

    -Shiver and Linger (another shamful confession. I own both of those but I just haven't been able to get to them yet. My tbr pile is starting to look like the leaning tower of piza)

    It's too hard to pick a favorite. I'm really loving The Wolves of Mercy Falls series by Maggie Stiefvater. I recently read Glimmerglass, book 1 in the Faeriewalker series by Jenna Black and I really enjoyed it so I'm looking forward to the others.

    Insatiable by Meg Cabot was a very pleasant surprise for me. I thought I was going to hate it but turned out loving it.

  39. Congrats on reaching 500! And thank you for the "welcome back" the other day. I'm enjoying finding my passion for books again which leads me onto something book related...
    Well, I learned that branching out my reading interests too far from what I usually like really made reading and reviewing a dismal experience and somewhat of a chore as opposed to something I loved doing. Even when I enjoyed the books it still wasn't in the same way I would enjoy an X-Men novel or a wrestling biography...hence my disappearance from the world of blogging. Ah, therapy!! :)

    +2 old follower although I'm only 36 so does that really count as an old follower?!? I consider old followers over 65! :)

  40. CONGRATS, Karen! 500 is an amazing feat. Job well done. :) Thank you for sharing your joy with us. :) I would definitely have to say that reading the entire Hunger Games series back to back when Mockingjay was released was thrilling and emotionally draining. It's one that will stick with me! I wrote up a series synopsis because it was just so powerful. :)

    MMM - this is a tough one, since I'm always talking about the books I love and the books I *know* I'll love just as soon as I get my paws one them, hehe - but, let's see, I'm really looking forward to reading Firelight and Paranormalcy ... both should be arriving soon and I'm very excited :) I've kind of gone off Urban Fantasy for now, maybe because I need a break from the constant darkness and despair, which is why I've been reading so much Paranormal Romance these days ... and two cute Young Adult books, one sparkly and one steamy (literally :), will be a nice change!

  81. 2010 has been one crazy year for book releases-- (and there's still more to come!) and most of the ones I've read/reviewed have involved urban fantasy, and I'm wonder if it's a trend that'll continue on for a long time to come.

    My favorite book of the year thus far is probably Clockwork Angel, but I'm sure I might reconsider once I'm finished Mockingjay. Thanks for the giveaway!

  84. Congrats on 500 followers!

    I finished reading Into The Dark by Gena Showlater and really enjoyed all three stories and all the extras at the end. I'm currently reading Married With Zombies by Jesse Petersen and I'm loving it! Very funny! After that I look forward to picking out a YA to read. Thanks for the contest!

    Fav book, it's been a very busy summer and I don't get a lot of time for reading, but I am still in the process of reading Wicked Game by Jeri Smith-Ready. I'm hoping to finish it before winter. Then it's on to Bad to the Bone! :oD

  94. My favorite book this year is a little different. See, it hasn't actually been released, yet (not until Nov)! It's the next book in the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan, which I have been anxiously awaiting since the last one came out almost a year ago. I guess, though, if I had to pick a favorite book SO FAR this year, I'd have to say it's Kelley Armstrong's most recent, Waking The Witch. Between the two, I've got both my favorite male and favorite female series-authors covered, so it's all good!
    I don't know whether you can tell or if I have to say it, but I'm an old follower, so +2, please! And congrats on getting up to 500!!!

    My fave book of late came out in '09-Graceling. I loved that book so much. Another fave is The Amaranth Enchantment, soooo light and fun- a great YA fantasy. I'm excited about Julie Berry's second book 'Secondhand Charm'

  105. My favorite book so far this year has to be Stacia Kane's City of Ghosts. The world is so vivid, the characters unique and that last book was INTENSE!

    Right now I'm counting the days until the release of Last Sacrifice, the final book in Richelle Mead's Vampire Academy series.

  119. Woohoo, Congratulations Karen! :-D Here's to many more blog minions/fans! :-p

    Thanks for the great giveaway, I'd love to enter.

    There were so many fantastic books I have read this year, it is hard to choose. Master of None by Sonya Bateman, Embers by Laura Bickle, Touched by an Alien by Gini Koch and the Kate Daniels series by Ilona Andrews are the most memorable reads that come to my mind right now. Since I'm not a very patient person it is fortunate that the 2nd book in 2 of these series is coming out soon (Sparks by Laura Bickle and Alien Tango by Gini Koch)! :-)

  123. First of all, CONGRATS!!
    That is really awesome!!!
    It is only during Blogfest that I discovered there's a whole book-review community online. I have always read books but never really did anything with that because I thought nobody was interested! Gosh, how wrong I was! lol

    Anyways thanks so much for this opportunity.

    I have read lots of books since the beginning of this year but what is my current obsession is: Finding Sky by Joss Stirling..
    It is awesome and I'm sure there's going to be a second one soon!!
