Spud | 5 comments Hi!

I've been feeling a bit down lately and I'm looking for lighthearted and fun series to read, something with a feel good vibe. I'm not always good at picking those and the last one I tried started out fun but became intense and depressing. I'm hoping to avoid that next time so I turn to the endless knowledge and wisdom of the PNR group :)

I'm looking for multi-books series and if possible available in audiobook. Ideas?


Kimberly / Love Notes Book Blog (picklechic) | 25 comments Do you like shifter books? If so, my fave shifter series is the Phoenix Pack series starting with Feral Sins (The Phoenix Pack, #1) by Suzanne Wright . It is pretty light, hot, with some humor.

Cindi (ourtrumpcard) Katie MacAlister's You Slay Me (Aisling Grey Guardian, #1) by Katie MacAlister is pretty funny and light-hearted, IMHO. There are 4 books in that series, then it spins off into related ones, all about dragon shifters. I also laugh my (reappearing) booty off at Molly Harper's werewolf books. And lastly, if you like YA, try Sherrilyn Kenyon's Infinity (Chronicles of Nick, #1) by Sherrilyn Kenyon .

Pack Challenge (Magnus Pack, #1) by Shelly Laurenston The Mane Event (Pride, #1) by Shelly Laurenston

Viktoria Gail Carriger's Parasol Protectorate series is just what the doctor ordered. Funny and never too serious. Also the audio books are charmingly read by Emily Gray. Hope you enjoy them!

Mina Khan (spicebites) | 127 comments I love Demon Hunting in Dixie (Demon Hunting, #1) by Lexi George series by Lexi George as well as the Dragon Kin books by G.A. Aiken (alter ego of Shelly Laurenston) :)

Andrea Jackson (paperbackdiva) | 76 comments I like to recommend the Immortals After Dark series, by Kresley Cole. These books have been coming steadily for a number of years and are sometimes hysterically funny and always adventurous, romantic and sensual. They don't have to be read in order and each is a self-contained story.

Genea I really enjoyed:
Succubus Blues (Georgina Kincaid, #1) by Richelle Mead Carrots (Shelby Nichols, #1) by Colleen Helme

Spud | 5 comments Thank you guys so SO much! I've wrote down every suggestion and I'm thrilled to have a sizable list that won't run dry too soon. Some of you suggested a few of my personal favorites like the Charley Davidson series, the Chronicles of Nick an Molly Harper's books, and that reassures me that I'll probably love everything that was listed. A thousand thank yous!

Your suggestion Feral Sins is the one I've decided to start with. It seems great, thanks so much!

Great! I hope you like it!

Rachel | 192 comments Have you read Clean Sweep (Innkeeper Chronicles, #1) by Ilona Andrews ? That might fit the bill as well


message 18: by Bella (new)

Bella Foxygobble (dcrain02) This is a great thread! Thanks for starting it. I've been in a similar mood and needed some light fun too so can appreciate this. One author who always snaps me out of it is Mary Janice Davidson. She gets pretty over the top but is always good for a laugh. I don't binge read her - just pick the next book in line when I need something completely off the wall funny. I also 2nd Katie MacAlister...

Really looking forward to reading some of these great suggestions. I don't always need a ton of humor so some of these are going on my to-read shelf.

Willow Madison | 3 comments Regina Shiderly is an author that always has me smiling. Her books were my first real intro into PNR romance/erotica. I'm finding that they are unique and different from the usual in this genre - less emphasis on the shifter storyline and more on the character and love development. All lighthearted, even the ones with a Serial killer if you can believe it! And they're shorter reads, so perfect for a pick-me-up too. Try this one for starters:
United Shifter's Alliance The Collection by Regina Shiderly I fell in love with the unique story twists and fun characters....Carson is drool worthy!
