Paranormal Romance & Urban Fantasy discussion

Just like many I'm into the Paranormal craze. i have read a few books already however was looking for some good suggestions.

Series:
I would love to find another good series, something similar to Twilight (if at all possible) and/or Vampire Academy.

Paranormal/Dark Romance:
I read Hush Hush and Shiver - loved them both. Although, the sequels are coming soon I was hoping to get suggestions on some similar stories to keep me busy in the mean time.

Hoping to hear everyones thoughts/suggestions. Thank you in advance to all those that make suggestions.

Since you seem to be reading YA books you might want to check out Strange Angels

Evermore


Wicked Lovely

I'm currently reading Evermore and it's VERY much like Twilight, actually a little too much like it! But I'm only 1/2 way through it!

I see you have the House of Night books on your "to read list"... Those are pretty good and there are six so it will last you for a little bit :).

And the person above me recommended Wicked Lovely, which is amazing and so is the rest of the series.

Hope this helped :)

If you liked Twilight, you'll these two series, they're like Twilight but not too much.

Vampire Academy

Vampire Diaries

Thanks for the suggestions Malanie! I'm considering picking up the house of night series.

I read Vampire Academy and loved it... I can't wait for the next one. I read Vampire Diaries and thought it was horrible, the tv show is better.

I have gotten a few suggestions in reference to the House of Night series so that's next on the list. Thank you for you suggestions.

lol, ur welcum

Here's some YA Paranormal Romance I've read and gave either 4 or 5 stars to:

by Suzanne Weyn

by Annette Curtis Klaus

[image error] (book 1) Lisa McMann
[image error] (book 2) Lisa McMann

by Laura Whitcomb

(book 1) Katie Maxwell
(book 2) Katie Maxwell

(Morganville Vampire series, book 1) Rachel Caine
there are 7 books so far in this series

(The Mediator series, book 1) Meg Cabot

there are 6 books total in this series and there won't be any more

I think part of the prob with the Vampire Diaries is that they are horribly dated. The story is good, but I think the author should have gone for things that wouldn't wind up "dating" it as it were.

Vampire Diaries was MUCH better when it first came out in the early 90's (I read them back then and LOVED them)

The House of Night was a good series to read.

the Blue Bloods series by Melissa de la Cruz was a fun one to read as well. http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/87...

yeah it was, u know she's continuing the series now.

Nightfall and another 1 comes out this year.

I heard about that... Incredible... Ellena has more lives than a cat. First she's human, then she dies, then she's a vampire, then she dies, then shes a ghost, then she's back.. Too much to keep track of and too unrealiatic even for a fiction vampire series.

The Morganville Vampires series by Rachel Caine

dark guardian series by Rachel Hawthorne werewolves YA paranormal romance.



Other series already mentioned.

I recommend the Sookie Stackhouse mysteries (aka the Trueblood books) by Charlaine Harris. They are super hard to put down and I am addicted to the show too!

i recommend wicked lovely or house of night series

I know, cause what in the world is she supposed to b now? A fallen vampire angel? lol

I can't seem to make up my mind about which series to start, I was an original Twilight fan, (waiting for those books to come out was torture!) and I've been reading evermore but I dont know where to go from here. Any suggestions? Im new here so be gentle :)

i wuz going to recommend house of night but someone just beat me umm u should read Blood coven vampire:boys that bite tat is a good it not really like twilight but in other ways it is ull love it hey everyone thx 4 great book recommendations im going to start reading them

Try the Shifters series by Rachel Vincent. It's one of the best series I've ever read, and it makes you want to keep reading.

i'll look into those, thanks for the suggestions!

So I just finished the 1st Vampire Academy book. It was good...I'm curious to see what happens next. But,
I just got a few books that came in from the library so I don't know what I should read next...any help would be appreciated. Here are my choices.
1. Vampire Academy 2
2. Lament / Ballad
3. The Maze Runner

Thanks...Tracy

I too was a huge twilight fan and had a hard time finding something to affect me the way Twilight did. *Unfortunately I still haven't found exactly what I got from Twilight, but there are some other great books out there. I would suggesst Beautiful Creatures (My favorite book..almost EVER!), The Hunger Games/Catching Fire, I read House of Night (which was entertaining), but the last one that came out left a pretty big cliffhanger and I've got to wait a while on that. Good luck. Oh yeah, with Evermore, I read that and Blue Moon and I loved them, but when the new one Shadowland came out I rushed to buy it but I have yet to get into it.
Hope that helps.
Tracy

It does, thank you! With Shadowland it takes a little while to get into it, it has several different twists in it that I didn't see coming and over all I thought it was good, it just took patience in the beginning. I hope you like it! As far as your choices go, I loved The Maze Runner. If you love books that keep you guessing right up to the end and are full of suspense and adventure then you'll enjoy reading it.

I hope I helped you :)

Thanks Laura. If you really like Evermore and the rest you will LOVE Beautiful Creatures!
