Hi everyone, just logged in on a cold wet wintry Adelaide day. The name I use on the net is Addie. You can find me on writing groups old Anne Rice Vampire boards, and my blog is in the name of Rubydreamer.
I've read all of Kim's books....I must admit that I loved her first one best - Grimoire.
I have a friend in the UK who also loves her books and I always buy two copies, one for me and one to send to her.
I read all sorts of diff authors, Storm Constantine, Laurell Hamilton, Dean Koontz it depends on my mood.

Hi folks! Name (or alias): Jayann, but do feel free to shorten it to Jay, most people do. Location: Brisvegas Favourite of Kim's books: At the moment I have to say Moonstone. Favourite of Kim's characters: Dali. I dunno what it is about him. Something just intrigues me. Other authors you enjoy reading: Celia Rees, Meg Cabot, Maggie Prince, Michael Cunningham Any other interests: I'm a wanna be film maker, script writer actually, well either that or somewhere in the art department. I'm actually a film student, which I guess is a good start. I'm also into web/grapic design, which was actually something I nearly studied. And I'll be quiet now.

Name (or alias): Ingrid
Location: Sydney, Oz
Favourite of Kim's books: this is difficult - like someone else said I like them all for different reasons! I think it would have to be Angel of Ruin - lots of characters and story told from their different viewpoints and a storyline blending in actual (altered) historical events. And the chapter on the fall of the angels where they were expelled from heaven was superb!
Favourite of Kim's characters: Maisie from Ressurectionists, also Elizabeth from The Infernal
Other authors you enjoy reading: a variety - mainly the dark stuff like Ruth Rendell, Sarah Rayne, Francis Fyfield, Peter James, Nicci French, Penelope Evans & some true crime - Ann Rule. For general fiction I like Jeffrey Archer, Paullina Simons, Bunty Avieson. I tend to pick up a lot of good books in 2nd hand bookstores by authors I've never heard of.
Any other interests: Fitness, shopping, socialising with friends, writing
