Paranormal Romance & Urban Fantasy discussion

I have just finished with the Laurell K. Hamilton, vampire series and the Merry Gentry. I loved them and was disappointed when I read them all. Does anyone know of another series that is along the same subject and is good?

I haven't read any Hamilton but these are the paranormals I've rated highly recently.

Vampires -
- Black Dagger Brotherhood by J.R. Ward - AMAZING!!!!!
- Dark series by Christine Feehan (this is a series that gains in depth and scope as it goes on - there's a Dare you to read challenge for the entire series)
- Night huntress series by Jeaniene Frost (read but not rated yet on GR)
- The Chosen Sin by Anya Bast (stand alone)

Other Paranormals -
- Dragon Kin Series by G.A. Aiken
- Stormwalker Series by Allyson James

Hope this helps

Immortals After Dark by Kresley Cole....LOVE THIS SERIES!

I’m looking for some recommendations for new books as well... I came across the concept of the four apocalypse horsemen. But, I wanted to read a book that maybe revolved around the concept of them vs an eating disorder. Are there any books out there with some YA romance?

YA Romance
Mortal Instruments (City of Bones etc)- Cassandra Clare
The Wolves of Mercy Creek (Shiver, Linger) Maggie Stiefvater
The Iron Fey (The Iron King, The Iron Daughter..) Julie Kagawa
Hush Hush & Crescendo - Becca Fitzpatrick
(these are both mine and my granddaughter's favorites to they appeal across the ages)

I haven't read that series so I don't know if any of these are similar to it, but here are some of my favorites:

Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead
Chicagoland Vampires by Chloe Neill
Crimson Moon by J.A. Saare
The Forbidden Game by L.J. Smith
Georgina Kincaid series by Richelle Mead
Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare
Sookie Stackhouse series by Charlaine Harris
The Silver Kiss by Annette Curtis Klause (not a series but it's my favorite vampire romance book)

Is the Forbidden Game by L.j Smith good?

Michelle - I would suggest the Lords of the Underworld series by Gena Showalter. It has a darker element to it that fans of Laurell K Hamilton may enjoy.

I am in the middle of the Merry Gentry series and some of my most favorite books are:



This whole series is just amazing!! Thought it was even better then Merry!!





anything Richelle is awesome!!



This has the same steamy scenes like Merry!!

Also some of these ones. These all have the romance and action..






I swear all these series are really good!!

Love Laurell K Hamilton one of my fave authors.

Do recommend the Black Dagger Brotherhood by J.R.Ward... fantastic series!

reading the Demonica series atm which I am thoroughly enjoying also...

Sookie Stackhouse series is a lot of fun also

oh also just started the Night Huntress series also - really good

I have read the prelude and the first book of this series... I enjoyed it but felt it was lacking in certain areas... does it improve through the series?

Sookie Stackhouse series by Charlaine Harris
Its just one of my favs its really good and in the first and second books you will never guess who she really ends up with in the 10 book i cant wait for the 11 12 13 books

Sherrilyn Kenyon, dark hunter series a definate must read for me, also enjoyed merry gentry series, and laurell k hamilton's anita blake series is similar, and there are plenty books in the series to las a while.
