What I've been reading...

Kerri Arthur's Riley Jenson series.

Oh how do I love this series? Let me count the ways…

Firstly she's a werewolf/vampire half breed and she kicks ass. Secondly the series is set in Melbourne which makes a nice change from the US. Thirdly they are full on with naughty bits and Kerri Arthur gives good naughty bits. Fourthly there is a cast of likeable characters. A love interest that has me vacillating between hating and approving of. Fifthly the universe has an interesting premise with clones as well as a host of other shifters, Vamps and other supernatural beasties.

The books are quick paced and importantly not too long. They are fun and whist some elements get a tad repetitive, I can't seem to stop reading them.  I seem to be in somewhat of a completist mind set of late and am really enjoying reading series after series. It's partially because once I'm in a particular universe I like to stay there for a while and enjoy. The downside is that some turns of phrasing become a little bit over used.  This wouldn't be the case if I was mixing things up a little.

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading the first seven! 

Next up is a slight break from the urban fantasy, I'm reading Joanne Harris' Runemarks
