I fell into this genre around the end of last year...now I have a hard time finding room to read any other genre of book! I've always loved vamps and werewolves and anything paranormal. So since I've found this genre, I've personally had a hard time putting it down. I'm personally reading over 5 series at a time right now. I hate to read a series back to back.
Some of the series that I'm reading are...
- Katie MacAlister's 'Aisling Grey, Guardian Series' - this is a comedy type with dragon shifters, seers, guardians of the underworld, demons, imps, and just about every other magical creature you can think of. It's also hilarious. I'm on the 4th book in this series, and am a little sad that Aisling's world for me will come to an end.
- J.R. Ward's 'Black Dagger Brotherhood' - Vampire series with a lot of action and hot steamy sex scenes. I tell my fiance all the time he needs to turn himself into a vamp somehow, lol. It's a great series, and I'll be starting the 5th book as soon as I get it.
- Laurell K. Hamilton's ' Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter' - So far, I've only read the first 2 books, and they were great. The second was a lot better than the first. No romance so far, just all out action and gore. I still like it though. I've heard that they steer towards the erotic side down past book 9, but well, I'm not there yet so I'm enjoying what I have :)
- Keri Arthur's 'Riley Jenson, Guardian Novels' - Half Vamp/Half vampire twins that fight evil. Mostly about the female twin, Riley, but the brother is thrown in there a little bit. Lots of sex scenes, but oh so juicy. Lots of action and staking, if ya know what I mean! (duh, vamp killings...silly)
- Jeaniene Frost's 'Night Huntress' - Yet another half Vampire, yet she's half human too. Out to get vengeance against the vamp that raped her mother...who is also her father. She meets up with a sexy vamp and falls in love..but she still on the hunt. Great series, first series I got into and can't wait till the 3rd and 4th books come out!
- Rachel Vincent's 'Werecat Series' - Simply what it says...werecats. Not your typical housecat though. They are the size of a black panther, and well...they really are just that, black panthers, lol. Lots of action and lots of romance, another personal favorite. The 3rd book is due to come out pretty soon.
Okay...lol..those are just a few. I have a few more that I'm currently devouring as I get the next books in the series. Hope this helps a bit though, gives you a taste of the different types of books you can jump into. Hope you like the genre!
