[Reply]
just in case, i also twittered this @ my twitter, http://twitter.com/jennzahling. lol. i love Caitlin, her blog rocks.
[Reply]
I haven’t read any of her books YET - she’s definitely on my TBR list, because I have heard good things.
[Reply]
Bitten by Books is perma-linked on my blog at httt://qwillery.blogspot.com and I added Caitlin’s link today.
[Reply]
I’ve heard of her books, but because my TBR pile is so large that I haven’t bought any of them. They sound really good and I would love to win a set! Does it count that I’m already a subscriber AND a friend on MySpace? LOL Just figured I’d ask, but I would still love to be entered if I can.
[Reply]
Never read her books (or heard of her) but they sound good from those reviews, I do have a week spot for werewolves, and then throw in some witches, mystery and action. Sounds like a good recipe
What would I do without reviews, it is my source to find new authors.
[Reply]
I love this series. I love Luna and her cousin Sunny.
[Reply]
I have read the first book (loved it) but would have liked to have read more opinion on the book itself. I hope to find out more in later reviews.
[Reply]
I’ve had Caitlin on my reading list for ages but she hasn’t made it to the top of the que yet! So, I’ve yet to find a favorite. Soon, though, I hope!
[Reply]
Caitlinn is on my TBR pile, though I was able to read a yummy short of hers in the My Big Fat Supernatural Honeymoon anthology. I’m eagerly awaiting Street Magic so I can read more about Pete and Jack.
[Reply]
Hey…I love her books! My favorite character(s), i have 3 because i can’t decide between them: but they Are Luna, Sunny, and Dmitri. Love them! My favorite seen is anything with them all in it, or at least Luna and one of them. Its so hard to pick favorites, kinda like picking your favorite song/artist.
[Reply]
I’d love to read your books, Caitlyn!
I added your blog to my blog list at http://catemasters.blogspot.com/.
Best of luck with your series.

I left comments on Night Life, Pure Blood, and Street Magic, all of which sound great!
Also, Bitten by Books is on my blogroll at:
http://unmainstreammomreads.blogspot.com
Thanks for the chance to win!
[Reply]
My favorite character is Jack Winter from Street Magic, and my favorite scene (from the same book) is at the end of the book where Jack and Pete are fighting the ghost guy. I don’t want to leave spoilers for those who haven’t read it yet, so I’m sorry I’m not more descriptive
[Reply]
Wow the TBR book pile in my room is expanding…. I have read Night Life but haven’t been able to get ahold of the rest yet. The add to my facebook has been done, I do love being able to facebook the authors I am reading. The reviews of the book on Bitten were very intriguing. After reading the review of Pure Blood I can see that I will have to strengthen my search to get ahold of these books. Dimitri returns and she has to deal with not only a new captain and partner after her leave of absence but gets pulled into a witch gangwar. Paranormal romance and suspence in one what more could you ask for.??

[Reply]
I posted the link on Facebook, now to comment on the characters here… Sadly to say I have yet to read her writing and it was the promo for this and the cover that drew me to read the excerpt. I have to say Luna sounds like a great character if the excerpts I read are anything to go by.
I do know that I will be checking out her work more closely from now on.
[Reply]
Let’s see… did the Twitters & Facebook & MySpace addings… added to my LiveJournal (http://rissatoo.livejournal.com/) and blogspot (http://rissatoo.blogspot.com/), subscribed to the newsletter, shared it on Facebook, added both blogs to my blog… um, and that’s all I can do right this minute… gotta think about my favorite scene…
[Reply]
Night Life sounds really interesting. I like chicks with tempers who get themselves in trouble.
I friended Caitlin on Facebook and Twitter. I was already her friend on Myspace.

I have yet to read any of Caitlin’s material, so I can’t tell you a fav scene or characters!
[Reply]
Night Life sounds fabulous! Luna sounds like my kind of heroine - attractive, independent and a werewolf. I haven’t read the books yet but they are on my TBR list.
- I retweeted the contest.
- I follow Caitlin on Twitter
- Blog’d at http://fantasydreamersramblings.blogspot.com/2009/02/contest-win-books-from-caitlin.html
- I have both Caitlin & Bitten by Books permantly linked in my blogroll and web site links list.
[Reply]
I will twitter. I will follow Caitlin. LOL
Seriously, if you have not read her, you must. FABULOUS writing that will make you stop and think.
I love the scene where Luna first meets Dmitri. It made me want to turn the pages faster.
[Reply]
I’m a big supporter of Caitlin’s work and always look forward to more stories from her. I’ve enjoyed following Luna and Dimitri and am excited about Street Magic coming out. Caitlin rocks. Next time you find yourself in Minneapolis I’ll but you some pie.

Greetings! I sent a friend request to Caitlin in MySpace. However I won’t get a confirmation e-mail. She’ll just add me or she won’t. I did it though. You trust me, right? And you know I’ve done everything except clip my toenails to win. I wish I could say who my favorite character is but I’ve never read any of Caitlin’s books. I’m evil and I must be spanked!!

I have never read any of this authors books, but fromt he review of the first book in the series (Street Magic) I am now intrigued. Pete and Jack obviously are an unlikely combination which I’m sure is why this would make for good reading.
[Reply]
I’m not following you on Twitter (floridaboatgirl) and I tweeted about your contest.
[Reply]
1. I haven’t read them yet but I definitely want to especially after the reviews.
2. Done. See reviews.
5. Done.
7. Requested, will forward confirmations once received.
