I have a mini collection of books going on in my closet
My favorite genre is usually paranormal romance. Not so much for the romance, but because of the paranormal side. I find it very interesting to read about the rules and logic pertaining to their world.
My favorite books are: Dance with the Devil by Sherrilyn Kenyon, The Battle Sylph by L.J. McDonald, Shadow Touch by Marjorie M. Liu, and the Anita Blake Series by Laurell K. Hamilton.
They're all different, but have the same genre I mentioned above. Completely different plots and ideas, but all written well.
I have read these books rather than done what I was supposed to do, and even though I shouldn't've, I felt very satisfied because the stories were great.
