Dear Ms. Feehan: I haven’t read one of your books for some time despite being an earlier devotee of your pioneering Carpathian series. The blurb for Dark Slayer sounded fascinating and the cover was quite evocative. Ivory Malinov is the vampire boogie man (or woman as the case may be). There is not a vampire(…)

Dear Ms. Briggs, Even though I adored “Alpha and Omega” in the anthology On the Prowl, the story which introduced readers to the werewolves Charles and Anna, and also loved the first novel in the series which follows these characters, Cry Wolf, I’m not sure I’m the best person to review Hunting Ground, the latest(…)

Dear Ms. Hill: I remember when I received a copy of this book, I meant to just casually flip through it but from the very beginning I was riveted. I remember thinking that I resented having to put the book down to cook dinner and do my daily ablutions. Jessica Tyson was a servant to(…)

Dear Ms. Day It’s tough for a reader to jump into the middle of a series. Atlantis Unmasked is the fourth book in the Warriors of Poseiden series. Reading the first three was too intimidating in terms of a time commitment. and I fully acknowledge that this book would probably have worked better for me(…)

A girlfriend of mine just recently read the whole Twilight series on her iPhone. She doesn’t want to read more Meyer but she does want to read more Vampire Romances. I recommended the first book in the JR Ward series, Dark Lover (Black Dagger Brotherhood, Book 1), which she bought via the Kindle App on(…)

Dear Ms. St. Crow, I’m familiar the urban fantasy novels you write under the similar name, Lilith Saintcrow. I enjoyed your Dante Valentine series but wasn’t as keen on your next venture, the Jill Kismet books. But I’m always on the hunt for new young adult novels to read so when I heard you had(…)

Dear Ms. Adrian: I really fell in love with your series with the book featuring Tegan and Elise, Midnight Awakening. I believe it was in that book that we were introduced to Andreas Reichen. Andreas is a German vampire whose entire “family” was killed during a purge of Darkhaven homes who are perceived to be(…)

Dear Ms. Byrne: I cannot recall what my impetus was for buying this book but I did and I was glad for my impulse. I have been in a paranormal romance reading lull and frankly, my appetite for vampire romances is at an all time low (near flatlining, to be honest). I will admit I(…)

Dear Ms. Ward, I was a relative latecomer to your Black Dagger Brotherhood Series, joining it in progress at, I believe, book three (or was it four?). Anyway, I remember reading online discussions about the series well before starting the first book, mostly related to the unusual names of the heroes (debate, IIRC, raged about(…)

Dear Ms. Harris: There is a point in your newest Sookie Stackhouse release, Dead and Gone, where Diantha, demon niece of supe lawyer Mr. Cataliades, warns Sookie of war brewing among the fairies. This spells danger for Sookie because of her connection to the fairy prince Niall, and like the weres in the last book,(…)

You are Chris Brown to my Rihanna – it hurts but here I come again I keep saying that I am off the wagon, and Yet I read this book ‘Read’ is not correct More like ‘devoured it whole’ or ‘inhaled’ or ‘wolfed down’ This book’s not a fave But I liked it far better(…)

Grade: B Genre: Vampire (US) Dear Kathryn Bigelow, Not long ago, friends and I had a discussion about romantic vampire films including two current DVD releases, Twilight and Let the Right One In. I passed around my list of the most enjoyable romantic vampire films: Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979), Let the Right One In(…)

Dear Ms. Eden: Thank you for sending me an ARC of your book. You had sent me the first one Hotter After Midnight but I didn’t get around to reading it so I appreciate your persistence in following up with me. I’ve written recently that I’ve been suffering paranormal malaise of some kind. While Immortal Danger isn’t(…)

Jia’s note: Because this is the fifth and final installment of the Gardella Vampire Chronicles, there’s really no way to avoid spoilers for the previous books in the series. Readers who’ve been waiting for the entire series to come out before starting, tread carefully. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Dear Ms. Gleason, This is(…)

Dear Ms. Singh, Although I have not read your series novels, I have enjoyed all the paranormals in your Psy/Changeling series to varying degrees. Moreover, I have a real soft spot for angels, dragons and other winged creatures. So when I heard about your new Guild Hunter series, which has a world with angels, vampires(…)
