Due to the fact that I'm something of a slow reader, I rarely (if ever) tend to re-read books. As a result, I find it fascinating to see what books capture other people's attention to the point of wanting to dive back in them.

Out of this list, I've read Glitterland (which I liked). My only experience with Josh Laynon was with the Adrien English series--which I liked a lot less than most people. However, I do have several Laynon's books in my TBR so I'm going to (eventually) give those books a read.

I purposely avoided reading KJ Charles (though I ended up getting all of her books when they went on sale a while ago) because the hype was about to kill my enthusiasm. My hype backlash is sensitive because I'm a special orchid like that, I guess. /o\

Anyhoo, the Captive Prince series is just golden. I actually re-read Books 1 and 2 a little bit before Book 3. This was a good thing since there were a few things I'd forgotten and might've confused me when I read Kings Rising. In any case, I definitely lost all semblance of chill when I read Book 3. ;P

(BTW, I went ahead and friended you over at GR using my wallet name).

I can't imagine not re-reading books. I would miss so much, because no matter how I try, I cannot read slowly.

I read the first few Adrien English books, and I liked them, but didn't LOVE them. once he and the cop broke up I wasn't interested in reading more. I tend to like his shorts/novellas just fine, and have quite liked a couple of his other books. he's very 'solid', and I feel like I know what I'm going to get. so that's something.

omg tho, KJ Charles. obvs I have feelings ;) I will point out that the magpie books have D/s sex with a fifteen-inch height difference between characters, and that's H O T, so if that might be your thing...

Funnily enough, I re-read fics all the time despite the length. \o?

Hee, lots of peeps love KJ Charles. I do plan to read both the Magpie series as well as the Gentlemen one sometime this year. :D? There were some massive sales happening so I've managed to get all the books at super-low prices.

(Also, yeah, height differences and D/s kink are surefire ways to my bookworm-y heart). >:)
