Ok, I am totally cheating this post. I have not one, but two picks for this week – but to be fair it is one adult and one young adult, so that must count for something, right? One of last year’s projects was to read the Chicagoland Vampires series by Chloe Neill, so I am looking very forward to book number seven, House Rules.
Synopsis…
In a city full of vampires, trouble never sleeps.
At the tender age of 27, Merit became a sword-wielding vampire. Since then, she’s become the protector of her House, watched Chicago nearly burn to the ground, and seen her Master fall and rise. Now she’ll see her mettle—and her metal —tested like never before.
It started with two . . . Two rogues vanishing without a trace. Someone is targeting Chicago’s vampires, and anyone could be next. With their house in peril, Merit and her Master, the centuries old Ethan Sullivan, must race to stop the disappearances. But as they untangle a web of secret alliances and ancient evils, they realize their foe is more familiar, and more powerful, than they could have ever imagined.

And my second must-have this week is from Richelle Mead. I really liked the Vampire Academy series, and even though I could’ve slapped Sydney with how the last book ended, I believe she will redeem herself in this one, The Indigo Spell.
Synopsis…
In the aftermath of a forbidden moment that rocked Sydney to her core, she finds herself struggling to draw the line between her Alchemist teachings and what her heart is urging her to do. Then she meets alluring, rebellious Marcus Finch–a former Alchemist who escaped against all odds, and is now on the run. Marcus wants to teach Sydney the secrets he claims the Alchemists are hiding from her. But as he pushes her to rebel against the people who raised her, Sydney finds that breaking free is harder than she thought. There is an old and mysterious magic rooted deeply within her. And as she searches for an evil magic user targeting powerful young witches, she realizes that her only hope is to embrace her magical blood–or else she might be next.

Which one is on your must read list this week?
Excuse the pun, but I’m a little Once Bitten Twice Shy with the Chicagoland Vamps series. After the mess that was books 4 and 5, I think I’m going to wait for the reviews of House Rules before taking the plunge.
Yeah, there was that…issue…but I think I have pretty much almost sort of forgiven her for that. I think.
I’m looking forward to trying House Rules even though I was disappointed too; it’s still worth a shot, at least one more time.
I found the first one hard to get into, but after that I got into the flow. I do wonder how this one will go, though.
Kresley Cole put some puzzle pieces on her facebook of the McReive. I can’t see them and its killing me. Ahhh. Lol
I have been checking them, too…love the background so far. Can’t wait to see the whole thing.
