Booking It Back to Blog

Yep, I’m going to sneak this Booking It post in right before the deadline (um, that would be midnight since I like to post my Booking It items on Mondays).  As I write this post, the December issue of RT is right next to me…so many good books are coming out!

First up, Jeri Smith-Ready has a new book out. Actually, this is the last book in her Aspect of Crow trilogy, and it’s one I’ve been anticipating for quite a while. THE REAWAKENED is available now (though if you haven’t read the first two books, you should go snatch them up first!) and it is definitely on my buy-list.

Another book I’d like to read soon is WINTER KISSED. This one is a Nocturne, an anthology that features a story by Michele Hauf and one by Vivi Anna.   Winter themed paranormals–how cool.  🙂

Thinking about WINTER KISSED has reminded me…I’d love to read some more paranormal holiday stories. (I love a good Christmas paranormal!)  Years ago, I read A HOLIDAY OF LOVE (yep, holiday anthology) that included a paranormal story by Jill Barnett that–I’ll admit this without shame–made me cry.  It was such a great story. I think it may have been called “Daniel and the Angel.” True Barnett style. Funny, sweet, and, at the end, guaranteed to make the eyes water.

I want to find another Christmas story like that one!  Any recommendations?  Or, have you read that anthology, too? And what did you think?

    I didn’t know Judith McNaught had a novella out! I’ll check the library system to see if I can get that!

    Definitely get Karin Tabke’s Have Yourself A Naughty Little Santa. She already has great reviews! Karin is guest blogging tomorrow at Magical.

    I’ve been racking my brain trying to remember any Christmas paranormals I’ve read…there aren’t that many I don’t think. One that does come to mind is “Just a Little Magic” by Kate Douglas. It’s an Ellora’s Cave Quickie, so it’s pretty steamy, but it’s really an emotional story too, which Kate is awesome at doing. Oh, and I’m glad to hear that Karin Tabke’s new book is good, I picked it up the other day. I was going to try to wait until at least December before reading it, but I might have to dig into it early now!

    Oh, Edie, I want that one!! My next trip to B&N–it’s mine! I’ll be sure to check out Karin’s guest blog–thanks for the head’s up!

    Hi, Cheryl! Oh, I do like steamy. 🙂 “Just a Little Magic” sounds like a great story!
