CHRISTAL: My top read for January is easily Ever After by Kim Harrison.  The Hollows is one of my favorite UF series of all time and I can’t wait to see more of Rachel, Trent, and Al!

AH: Exactly what Christal said.  I can’t wait for the next installment in the Hollows, so Ever After is my top pick too.

D.G.: I’m a big fan of Linda Howard, so my top read for January is Shadow Woman.  I love how she mostly writes stand-alones so you don’t have to invest in a series (if you want to read my take on this book, just check out my review tomorrow.) In contrast, my second top read – Ice Forged by Gail Z. Martin – is by a new to me author.  Lately I’ve been neglecting my fantasy reads, so I’m really looking forward to this one.  My third pick is That Scandalous Summer by Meredith Duran. I loved the prequel so I’m counting the days until this one comes out!

REGINA: Its kind of funny, I don’t have any new releases I am waiting for!  I definitely do in February, and I am biting my nails for those.
