  Unfortunately, I'm only going to be able to do 2 of these. However, maybe in one way, that's a good thing. Once I've finished those 2, I'm going to go back and finish the ones for May that I didn't make it to. I'm starting off the month with A Hunger Like No Other by Kresley Cole.

    I read The Kissing Game by Kasey Michaels a few years ago. It was adorable! I was alternately laughing and going "Awwwww!"

  Suggestions for Game....Christine Feehan's Ghostwalker series all have Game in the title and I've enjoyed many of them.

    I had actually thought to skip this one because, although I have two of this series (books 5 & 6, Deadly Game and Predatory Game) and they are the only books I own with the word game in the title, I haven't yet started this series and I'm not sure if they would be easy to follow without reading the first four. Have you read either of these? Can they be read as a stand-alone?

    I think she does an ok job of explaining but there is quite a bit of world building that went on in the first two that makes the rest of them make more sense I think. I would read them in order if you could.

    I love this series! It's actually why I came up with this challenge. :) Anyway, Sheri, it's totally worth going back and reading from the beginning. Something big happens to the plot in those books that wouldn't be as major to you if you haven't read the first books yet. So yes, try and read them in order.

    Thanks. I think I'll stick with my original plan to skip this one, and I'll wait until I can get the first one to start the Ghostwalker series.
