Other Things I Have Been Reading

Confession time folks. I read and listen to some books that I do not review. Yes really! I have no excuse for why I often fail to review my non-netgalley books, but this means I often neglect some great books. I want to share some of my favorites with you as I struggle to find the time to write proper reviews so I can spread the love for some long time favorite authors, and share some recently discovered authors.

Some I found on Kindle Unlimited, some are Audible audio books, and some are from the local library. If I am bringing them up here, it is because I enjoyed the read and want others that might not have given them a try to be encouraged to do so, and to bring attention to them. I feel bad that I have been neglecting such wonderful authors review wise, but this is my first step in fixing that. 

First off, some of my favorite urban fantasy authors that I have been listening to via Audible. I love diving into the worlds of Ilona AndrewsSherrilyn Kenyon, and Seanan McGuire.  I have rarely been disappointed by anything these three have written, and when I am it is mainly because I want more before it is ready. Although I am willing to wait for more, because I would hate to pressure them or have them rush through something instead of keeping true to their vision and quality level. If you like urban fantasy with some romance and fabulous world building start at the beginning of a series from one of these three and you can thank me later. 

Some of my new discoveries via Kindle Unlimited have had me binge reading between Netgalley arcs. Pippa Grant has became a favorite for funny romance. I am loving her series that rather rotates around a hockey team and their friends and family. I am both envious of the wacky characters and their exploits and glad that my family and friends are much calmer. I also started out loving Missy Johnson's Awkward Love series, but I am losing momentum there. Maybe I just did too many in a row, but they are losing the shine for me.

I also cannot sing my praises loud or long enough for Anyta Sunday. Their romances get me in the feels every time. The Signs of Love series and the Enemies to Lovers series  are both must reads for me. These M-M romances are as much about people finding their place in the world and figuring out both who they are and what they want as they are about finding love. I simply adore them, and am always left eager for what comes next. 

I also read the start to a new series that I will be following, but left me disgruntled with a cliff hanger ending. Wolf Hunted by Sadie Moss was a great read. Paranormalish adventure with hints of romance and suspense. The sequel was just released, but will have to wait in the penalty box (reading too much about Grant's hockey players) until I am ready to forgive the cliffhanger. 

I need to get on reviewing these too, so I can share the love. But, until that happens I needed to share how much I love these authors. Do you have favorites that are automatic reads that you sometimes read but fail to review? Some you want to share the love for here?
