#L&SR’s #Wednesday’s blog Challenge 11-6-19 Books I’ve Recommended & Why

Welcome to #L&SR’s #Wednesday’s Blog Challenge November 6, 2019, Books I’ve Recommended & Why. It’s is a long list so lets get started in no particular order.

1.  Molly Harper. If you’ve read this blog much you’ll find that I recommend all her paranormal books and a few of her  contemporary ones. She is a talented writer, worked for six years as a reporter and humor columnist for The Paducah Sun.  She is best known for her Nice Girls vampire series and Naked Werewolf series.  Harper is well-known for her success in audiobooks. Her pairing with voice actress Amanda Ronconi has made her a “legendary pairing” at Audible. Check out her Mystic Bayou series on Audible. Yep, I have them all. 

2.  Linda Howard.  Trouble Maker is a delicious book where the four pawed character takes front and center mixed with a yummy black ops hero and a strong sassy heroine.The tale continues with A Woman Left Behind.  For animal lovers Troublemaker is a must read. Her delivery and humor is entertaining.

 3. Deborah Harkness – Discovery of Witches, Shadow of Night and Tree of life are well written tales of vampires, witches and nearly anything in between. Her historical accounts of Victorian London are great and I don’t usually care for historical. But  I truly enjoyed walking though the city with Deborah’s descriptions and lively characters. I believe you would too.

4. Dan Brown – Yeah he’s a little different from my usual reading preference. Still his characters and descriptions make you feel part of the story. Figuring out the puzzles he creates is one of the reasons I read his books.

5. Ernest Cline – Ready Player One and Armada –  Ready Player One – Again not my usual book preference, but exciting just the same.  Sci-Fi with an intriguing plot for gamers.These deal with gaming skills and  knowledge of 1980s pop-culture trivia to find clues left by billionaire James Halliday. I love the world he created and the unlikely heros and heroines he created. 

 Armada is a surprising thriller, a coming-of-age adventure, and an alien invasion tale like nothing you’ve ever read before.  The audio books are fantastic narrated by Wil Wheaton. 

6. Nora Roberts – The Witness and O’Dwyer Trilogy are a couple of my favorite books.  I’m not so much a fan of her Contemporary Romances as I am her paranormal ones listed.  I guess contemporary for me is ordinary. I want to be entertained with magic, mob bosses and things like that. LOL

 7.  The Harry Potter Series.  What’s not to like, a school for wizards, magic and friendships. I have to admit that the first book, The Sorcerers  Stone is still my favorite.  Love when he gets his letter, the lengths the Dursleys go to in order to avoid him getting it, and the snake scene when the glass disappears and Dudley falls through. I laugh every time.  Lets face it this series changed the landscape of writing. Young and old enjoy Harry Potter! Right?

8. So tell me what books have you recommended and why.  Please list them in the comments.

Alas, I need to get back to my writing cave where deadlines loom, so let’s see what the other authors in this blog challenge claim as to what scares them. L&SR

Teaser from CHARM ME AGAIN –

Yet, being a talented warlock, he is no closer to discovering what the ghost wants or why he chose Daylan. A trip to his estranged sister’s home in Colorado may have unforeseen consequences especially when family history leads him to a shocking discovery.

As his attraction blooms for Josie, a yoga instructor in his sister’s studio, he realizes there may be more to Josie than he can imagine. When an ancient rogue Fae Warrior set on revenge kidnaps her in an attempt to claim her as his own, a devastating curse comes to light.

Daylan’s world spirals out of control as he searches for Josie. Can he break the age old curse to save her and their future, or will she be lost to him forever?
