I like Mercy quite a bit. What about the Alpha and Omega books; I think she did some interesting stuff with Anna's character.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
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."

Hmm, I read one of the weather books and didn't really feel inclined to find more.
I have now finished the first of the Fever books. Quick read. And knowing that the books only get better means that I bought the second one right away. (Ways in which my kindle doesn't help my bank account. . . but at least it saves space.)
And in e-reader news: Library Thing has introduced their ereader.

Dresden Files & Thomas Sniegoski's Remy Chandler series are considered urban fantasy as well. Lewis has been eating both of those up.

And in e-reader news: Library Thing has introduced their ereader.
Nicely snarky, too:
"Though a ground-breaking arrangement with most publishers, the LibraryThing-e comes pre-installed with up to 200 of your LibraryThing books already scanned in; HarperCollins titles are restricted to a 26-page sample."
Burn!

That's true.
Darn it.
Also: I can recommend Ben Aaronovitch's Peter Grant books as good Urban Fantasy.

Those were recently recommended to me elsewhere.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I read the first one and liked it very much. Are there more out already?

The second one came out in March. (Moon Over Soho)
