Loads of fun this AM. I had to haul out at the crack o’ dawn to have 4 vials of blood sucked out of me. Always loads of fun. <g> Luckily, I had a good book with me to read. I always like to have that. What books do I consider must reads? You know authors that I automatically buy without even looking at the back cover blurb…

I recommend:

J. R. Ward – Black Dagger Brotherhood Series
Laurell K. Hamilton- Anita Blake and Merry Gentry Series
Kim Harrison-Rachel Morgan Series
Janet Evanovich- Stephanie Plum Series
Vince Flynn- Mitch Rapp Series
Patricia Briggs- Mercedes Thompson Series
Suzanne Brockmann- Navy Seal� Series

I’m sure I could think of others, but these are some of my faves. What do they all have in common? A great character that I can’t read enough about. Characters I identify with and root for. Characters I care about. As writers, that’s what we have to do, evoke emotion in our readers. These authors do a fantastic job.
