There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
I Upon a Star was the one I read. It was adorable. Not really fantasy, more like something Meg Cabot might write. I read Lycanthropy, too, and enjoyed it.
I just ordered Soulless, The Hunger Games, and the second Toby book. Kindles plus airports plus this thread are dangerous.

Ah, haven't read that one either.

I haven't read her.

Ha, nice. The second Toby book is very different from the first, I think. It has a different vibe, but it does what it does well. And I really like April.
Heeeeey, Jilli and Deena, since I'm not used to reading urban fantasy: is Changeless really different from Soulless in tone and structure?
P-C, have you read Breathers yet? I'm looking for someone to giggle with over how Utterly Wrong and so so SO funny it is.
Am currently reading Boneshaker, which intrigues me. I'm not too far into it yet; Zeke just left. I'm alternating that with Liz Marcs' BTVS fanfic, which I don't know how I hadn't found yet. (Wow, that was ungrammatical!)
And also waiting impatiently for Skulduggery Pleasant to wend its way here from the UK.

No, but it's on The List! As is Boneshaker, especially after the Hugo nomination.
Ha, maybe I will read Breathers after Feed. That should be fun. Oh, I should do it while I'm reading the Deadline draft, just to confuse everything horribly.
Maybe they'll have a used copy at Borderlands. That's how I picked up Soulless. Or I could just borrow it from Seanan.
is Changeless really different from Soulless
No, though both are different from the usual paranormal fiction available now.
I imagine that's why they're so popular.
Yes, and they're funny, and charming, and I think they're grabbing the horror, steampunk, paranormal romance, and historical romance audience.

DINGDINGDING! That's why they grabbed my interest.
Teppy, I liked Breathers, but was not swept away with it. And I adored Boneshaker.

I wasn't swept away by it, but it made me laugh and laugh and laugh because it was so wrongity wrong.
Hee -I'm so glad Soulless turned out to be such a Buffista hit. When my MiL brought it back from the book expo for me my immediate reaction was "Hey, look at Jilli on the cover!"
