* Anxiously Awaiting as of late April 2010

Several new things this month, but the biggest news I found while researching this time? It sounds like Moon Sworn is going to be the last Riley Jenson book. Ever.

Also of note is a new short from the Twilight universe from Stephanie Meyer coming out on June 5.

I'm deciding which books I need to be re-reading in preparation for upcoming books. I'm thinking maybe the last two Sookie books, the last Kate Daniels book (maybe the last two), and possibly the entire Riley Jensen series since this will be the last book.

Not all of the series I keep up with have another book listed as coming out. The authors have stated there will be more, but to my knowledge they haven't said when, or given a title name. I've listed those series below.

* Caruthers Sisters series by Candace Havens
* Meredith Gentry series by Laurell K Hamilton
* Guild Hunter series by Nalini Singh
* The Hollows Rachel Morgan series by Kim Harrison
* Cal Leandros series by Rob Thurman
* Daughters of Arianne series by Joey W. Hill 
* Dresden series by Jim Butcher 
* Bewitching Mysteries series by Madelyn Alt

Below are series I follow, but it is unclear whether there will be more books in the series:

* Bronwyn the Witch series by Candace Havens
* Nadia Stafford series by Kelley Armstrong
* Nature of Desire series by Joey W. Hill
* Felix Gomez series Mario Acevedo
* Spellman series by Lisa Lutz

You can read an excerpt of many of these books, to see my list of excerpts please go here. 

If someone wants to send me an ARC of one of the books on my Anxiously Awaiting list, I will read it within a day or two of it arriving (assuming I'm home and I'm not sick or anything), and will get a blog post up of it as soon as I've finished reading it. You may send me a digital version at chained lightning at g mail dot com, or to send a hard copy you may contact me at that email address to ask for a shipping address. If you have an ARC you would like to send that is not on my Anxiously Awaiting list I will attempt to read and review it in a timely manner but it may not be placed topmost in my TBR pile. Feel free to email me to see if I'd be interested in reading something, as well. I've found a few authors that way that I may not have read had I not received a review copy from the publisher. And now I'm hooked on a few of those series, just waiting for the next book.
