Welcome to a feature I'm going to post on Mondays called:
Read This F@!%ing Book!
This is a feature for me to push my favorite reads that just aren't getting enough attention!
I'm also opening it up to anyone who would like to guest post. Do you have a book that you just LURVED but feel like its not getting the play it deserves? Email me to let me know and I'd be THRILLED to have you post about it here! Especially if its something I haven't reviewed yet - that's even better (but not necessary)! If you're interested email me:

Read This F@!%ing Book Post 12: Jane Yellowrock series

Jane Yellowrock series by Faith Hunter
Urban Fantasy
Urban Fantasy
Why I'm pushing it:
Great UF series for those that love a hard as nail heroine that has a soft side they protect from others. Well written and outstanding characters and world development. Jane Yellowrock series has it all; vamps, weres, fae and witches. Lots of bloody action and a touch of romance.
Why I love Jane:
She's a kick ass rouge vampire hunter. She's a skinwalker which means she more than just a were. She can change into almost any animal but her beast prefers the form of a mountain lion. I find the inner monologue between Jane and beast every interesting and well written. So instead of one heroine you get two.
Audio:
If you are into audios you MUST experience Jane on audio. Khristine Hvam IS JANE YELLOWROCK! She just knocks the narration out of the park from the timing to the characters' accents. I won books 4 and 5 in paperback but I love the narration so much that I bought them in audio. (FYI I'll be giving away the paperbacks soon at The Book Nympho so stay tuned for that.)
Series reading order:
Skinwalker - TBN's Review

Did Jennifer persuade you to add it to your TBR mountain?
Let me know in the comments below!
I actually enjoy this series a little bit better now that Jane has a team at her disposal to help her out. Things are really interesting between her and the master vampire of the South which can only lead to lots of different story lines. Yes, please, if you haven't read this series, do so soon!
ReplyDeleteI'm in the middle of Raven Cursed and I'm still loving Jane.
DeleteLove, love, love Jane. That's all I have to say.
ReplyDeleteI love this series!
ReplyDeleteLooks like I found my next audio read. :-)
ReplyDeleteThey are really good on audio!!
DeleteI've read the whole series to date and enjoy it. One negative: since Jane's a skinwalker I doubt she'd have any problem with Ricky's little issue so it kind of irritates me that Faith uses it to keep them apart.
ReplyDeleteI know romance is a distant second or third in UF, but come on, Jane's a healthy woman and goodness knows Beast has needs...
Beast has many needs. ;)
DeleteTotally agree, 100%!!! The audio format is a TREASURE!! The books are amazing, and hearing Cherokee spoken is a treat not to be missed!
