Succubus Revealed (Georgina Kincaid #6) Richelle Mead Published: Aug. 30, 2011 (Kensington) Purchase at: Book Depository, B&N or Amazon Rating (out of 5): 4 stars Note: If you have not read earlier Georgina Kincaid novels, there may be spoilers below. There are no spoilers for Succubus Revealed, however. I didn’t think I was ready to say goodbye to Georgina Kincaid — or Seth, Carter, Jerome or even Doug....

There were so many great new releases this week, my head is still spinning. I pre-ordered Andrea Cremer’s Wolfsbane, so that’s my current read, but all the excerpts in today’s Book Bits already have me ready to order more. Dive in, and prepare to add to that TBR list. Taste of Succubus Revealed The Georgina Kincaid series almost over, and I’m not sure if I’m excited or nervous about that. Either way, I... 
I realize many of my favorite books — and recommended series — may not have their first few books reviewed on VBC. I’d like to get everyone caught up. In the coming weeks, I’m going to try and get reviews up-to-date on series from two of my favorite authors: Richelle Mead for her Georgina Kincaid series and Jeaniene Frost for Night Huntress. Succubus Shadows (Georgina Kincaid #5) Richelle Mead Published:... 
I realize many of my favorite books — and recommended series — may not have their first few books reviewed on VBC. It goes with the territory of a blog that I review my latest reads, and only get to the others when doing a re-read (like we did for Vampire Academy or for a group read). But I’d like to get everyone caught up. So, in the coming weeks I’m going to try and get reviews up-to-date on series from... 
We always enjoy diving into the Richelle Mead’s writing, and in re-reading her first Georgina Kincaid novel Succubus Blues for the April group read we remembered why this series is so fun. Georgina is Mead’s heroine who really wants to be normal. She wants to love. And meeting Seth all over again? Oh, we loved it. And we want to talk about all that, plus Roman (!), the crew at the bookstore and a certain... 
Succubus Blues (Georgina Kincaid #1) Richelle Mead Published: 2007 (Zebra/Kensington) Purchase at: Book Depository or Amazon Rating (out of 5): 4 stars The Georgina Kincaid series is Richelle Mead’s lightest work, in terms of tone. Often witty with plenty of laughs, Succubus Blues will still bring you to the edge with coiled intensity. Georgina Kincaid is a succubus. Her immortal life is sustained by...
As my affinity for all novels written by Richelle Mead is well-documented, let’s lead this off with reminding everyone that I don’t pick our group reads. Each month we put up a poll with six options (three adult titles and three YA) and leave it up to you guys. What can we say, you guys have good taste. The April group read is the first novel in the Georgina Kincaid series, Succubus Blues. While Succubus... 
Yesterday a couple blog friends were talking about a book on Twitter. I caught the middle of the conversation focused on how Spaz P threw the damn book across the room. Being a reading masochist, I couldn’t help but ask what book. She and Nat (Wicked Lil Pixie) were chatting about the fantastic agony-inducing Zodiac series by Vicki Pettersson, specifically the fourth book City of Souls. Hearing that a... 
Succubus Dreams Richelle Mead Published: 2008 Purchase at: The Book Depository or Amazon Rating (out of 5): 4 stars Succubus Dreams was utterly engaging with plot and prose to keep readers rapt. Succubus Georgina Kincaid is doing her best to balance her demon-promised duties and her relationship with mortal Seth Mortensen. The two love each other, and do their best to make things work, but Georgina...
