Best List of Paranormal Fantasy
Are you a fan of paranormal fantasy books? They're continuing to gain in popularity and it's easy to see why. The "Twilight saga may have been geared toward teens, but they have proven to be just as popular with adults--lots of action, romance, strong women, sexy vampires, and just a great way to escape from the real world. Do you have favorite authors, favorite series in this genre? Barnes & Noble has just released their choices for the "Twenty Best Paranormal Fantasy Novels of the Last Decade." Check it out and let us know if you agree/disagree or have your own choices. I know I'm going to add the first book of the Kim Harrison "Hollows" series to my reading stack.

I've read several of these series. The Nymphos of Rocky Flats by Mario Acevedo is fantastic! Don't let the titles fool you ;) It's an interesting take on the vampire genre. It's no where near Twilight. It's an amazing detective novel and the detective happens to be a vampire.
I also have several in my "to be read" pile. Thanks for posting! Suzanne - 11:05 AM

I've often thought of asking if the library would start a Paranormal Romance/ Urban Fantasy reading group, it's my favorite genre. I've read quite a few of those (Harrison, Harris, Briggs, Hamilton, Butcher)and am looking forward to checking out the rest on the list. In my circle of reader friends, Sherrilyn Kenyon and JR Ward have been favorites but my absolute favorite has to be Kelley Armstrong's Bitten series (her YA trilogies are good too!)

A Paranormal Romance/Urban Fantasy Reading Group? Why not? We can put it out there and see if anyone else is interested!
