Black Dagger Brotherhood SeriesJan 30, 2010
By Virginia M. Ganz
"Ginnamarie"
This series of the Black Dagger Brotherhood by J. R. Ward is the best I have read. It is absolutely an adult read, but is acceptable for all adults. My daughter who is 39, my friends who range in age from 35 to 65, and myself all have read and reread this series. I am 70. I am totally in love with the great males in this series, and also their females. I cry with them and laugh with them. I have already pre-ordered the next book from Amazon, which should be about John Matthew. Try these books. You will be hooked, and if you order it from Amazon, you get a great price.

 A page turner, with some flawsFeb 15, 2010
By minenyc
"minenyc"
I read the first four of the series of six so far. These books are truly page turners. You get sucked into the universe Ward created and care for most of the characters. The love interests are developed well (with occasional cheesy lines but you go along with it) and you can't get enough of them.
On the flipside, here is why I did not give five stars:The "street" slang the brothers are speaking really irritated me, as it didn't sound genuine at all. I live in New York and hear a fair amount of "street" slang, and it does not sound like this. (Questions ending with "..., true?" Who talks like that?) Also, I am not sure if Ms Ward knows what blunts are. Usually they are not made with rolling paper. True connosseurs of rap music, even gangsta rap, would probably find something better to listen to than D-12... Ms Ward needs a "street editor" if she wants to continue this, but also, why do centuries old vampires act like that anyway? I am not usually a romance genre reader, and it also bothered me a bit that every book seemed to follow a similar pattern in terms of the main love interests, and have a happy happy ending where most loose ends were tied.
Having said all this, I read four books in 6 days, so clearly I liked it.

Dark Brotherhood Series By J.R. WardAug 14, 2010
By Deb
First, I just want to say, I highly recommend this entire series, J.R. Ward is a creative writer and I can't wait for each new book that she adds to the series.
When I saw the reviews for this series, I was almost put off due to the warning of bad language, not that I'm a prude, but because of the fact that these days, the "shock factor" seems to be so popular to the point of nothing else matters...
However, the majority of reviews went on to say that the books we're worth reading...
After getting past the fact that there is "bad language", I realized it fit the storyline, because the characters we're, after all, "warriors on steroids", and more, including a sense of humor, loyal, extremely romantic, compassionate... and with each book, you get to meet each one of them and their in depth story of how they find their true love and how their troubled pasts has molded them into the men they turned out to be... It's steamy, adventurous and each book is extremely hard to put down because I couldn't wait to see what happened next...
This series of books is everything you could ask for in a romance novel and when I got to the the last book that's available at this time, "Lover Mine", I found myself saddened to realize I'd have to wait until next year, before I'd be able to continue on...

Guilty PleasureFeb 03, 2011
By M. Sparks
I suppose if I can admit to having read Charlaine Harris' Sookie books, I have to cop to these as well. Though I started out with no expectations of reading the whole series, I found I was too intrigued and engaged to stop. Second surprise was that it wasn't the "romance" that kept me reading. The author's inventive modern vernacular and the witty dialog exchange between the characters became the joy the kept the pages flying. Now add a great story arc wherein the characters' complexities are exposed and explored while they strive against more than a single adversary and viola; the dishes went unwashed, the laundry went unsorted, and the floors gathered dust until there were no more pages to turn.

Good light readingAug 14, 2010
By jenn98
I got this box set when my job required me to sit on location for 8 days and all I could do was read. I finished all six books and they were entertaining but the slang got to be irritating. I mean who says "What's doing?" instead of what's going on? OMG toward the end I felt like throwing the book whenever the word doing came up. And goth vampires listening to rap music seemed off to me. But those parts were easily skimmed over and the books did their job and kept me from getting bored.
