Book Nerd!

Yes I am a book nerd, and I've been even more so since I got my Nook :-) I found out that I could "borrow" ebooks from my library, which has been amazing. I have not forgotten my beautiful real books (I am currently reading one now!)
Lately, I have been knee deep in a variety of things...
I finished the Hunger Games series, and loved it. I really enjoyed the series, although I still think the first book was the best. 
I embarked on my first true erotica as well. If guys can watch porn, why can't I read my delicious novels about demon-possessed sexy warriors? The series by Gena Showalter has been dubbed Lords of the Underworld, and although it is teeming with sex, there actually is an intriguing plot based on a revised version of the Pandora's Box myth. I would definitely recommend the books to anyone who likes fantasy-esque novels (or sexy ripped men and Showalter's cheeky writing that makes any girl pant...)
Currently, I have been lent the entire Wicked Lovely series. This one is a  young adult series based on the secret world of faeries. I love the lore that is woven into the modern life of several female lead characters. Melissa Marr likes to play with love triangles and the balance of what we think of as good and evil.

I have also recently become obsessed with the site Goodreads.com. I love how it allows you to see what you've read and what you want to read all in one place. I have been looking for a way to list all those books people recommend me. It also has a great community and lots of ways to find new books to read. I'm a total nerd and I'm okay with that :-)
