Take A Chance Challenge

I love to read and I'm always looking for new books to read. So I've decided to enter the Take A Chance Challenge over at Find Your Next Book Here. This challenge offers 10 random ways to find your next book to read. Some of them look rather interesting so I thought I would check it out. You can click on the button at the top of the post to get more information.

This challenge started on June 1, 2009 (I'm a little late starting, what can I say) and runs through November 30, 2009. That still gives me a little over 4 months to complete the 10 tasks. I can do this. I plan to post updates as I complete the challenges so you can keep up with my progress. Oh, and one grand prize winner will recieve $25 worth of books from Amazon (winners choice of books). How cool is that.

What's On Your Nightstand?

Since our new library opened this month I've been going to the library more and checking out books. And amazingly, I've been reading them too. It's so nice to be getting back to reading.

Right now I'm reading Succubus Blues (Georgina Kincaid, Book 1) by Richelle Mead. Lately I've been in the mood for a supernatural book, but I didn't want anything that was too far out there. So this is what I wound up with.

Here's a brief summary of the book:Georgina Kincaid is a succubus in Seattle with a day job at a bookstore. She can't even kiss another person without it sucking away part of their life force so her dating life is a bit dull.

Her favorite author, Seth Mortensen, has recently moved to town and is using the cafe in the bookstore she works in as his writing locale. Of course she can't even have a relationship with Seth because of her succubus nature. Meanwhile, another force is at work in the Seattle demon underground. So far a vampire has been killed, a demon seriously injured and a note left by the perpetrator for Georgina. And I'm only about a third of the way through this book.

I hope to finish up this book this week. I've pretty much been sucked into it already so that shouldn't be a problem. I may wind up a little sleep deprived, but I will finish this book in the next few days. Then I will move on to the sequel Succubus on Top (Georgina Kincaid, Book 2) which I checked out from the library the same day so it's already waiting on my nightstand.
