I am falling in love with this girl's works.  Not because of the strong female protagnosists in all her series, but the humour, and sheer witt that goes into these books. 

I started reading her as a substitute to the Twilight Saga with the Vampire Academy series and found myself engrossed.  The storyline is tonnes better and the characters all have so much dimension and depth to them!  After the VA series I moved onto and devoured the Storm Born series within a fortnight.  I am now starting the Georgina Kincaid series which I am loving.

What do you guys think?

Big fan as well.  I love the Vampire Academy series (and I almost quit after the intro because I thought how it seemed cheesy!).  Took awhile to get into Bloodlines...mostly because I was upset VA was over, but I'm hooked now.  Also pretty good is the Dark Swan series.  The Georgiana Kincaid series was well written, but I couldn't get into it quite as much because of all the sex.  I am not against sex in books, but I usually am listening ith an earphone around my kids....so it is really weird to have hot and heavy stuff going on while you're playing with a toddler Wink.  Her series Age of X is on my to read list...excited!

I dunno....Sure wish she had more stuff!  I will be uploading the second book in the Age of X series today or tomorrow FYI. 

I have heard that Jennifer Armentrout's Covenant series is supposed to be just like VA, but I haven't actually read them yet.  Planning to start soon.  I've heard that it is too similar, so in one case it's just like reading a giant knock off, but others say it is really good, so I'm gonna give it a try and hope for the best.

Having some really mixed feelings about this one. I'm a big fan of about every of her writings. But the last 1 or 2 books in each series almost always undo the rest for me.

Plots are often explained in the last few chapters of each book, which I can work with. But each series final, for me, has some drastic turnaround I often find hard to comply with.
Especially after reading Silver Shadows, which still haunts me Grin, and somehow still reminds me of the latest seasons of the television series Castle.
