Crissy Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 My sister loves her paranormal/supernatural chick lit and asked me if I knew of other authors who wrote similar stuff. I'd never heard of her, so I offered to ask here. What do you recommend for readers of that style of work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elizabeth Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Julie Kenner hsing momma and writer of demon hunting soccer mom series. Next I would try the Kelley Armstrong werewolf series nice technological bits and a compelling mythology to boot. I have read the series linked here and just love it for relaxing fluff... http://www.kimharrison.net/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosie_0801 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Don't know about that author but I like Garth Nix's trilogy: Sabriel, Lirael and Abhorsen. They are aimed at teens but I re-read them occasionally. The main character is a white necromancer. Rosie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Closeacademy Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Ok, I'll admit it. I read some of her books. Not the paranormal ones because there is bad stuff in there but I do read other paranormal ones. Yes, I like books about nice Vampires and Warewolves trying to live "normal" lives like us. I don't read books that include obvious evil or deamons. Here are some authors: Christina Dodd--has one book out along these lines so far but too scary for me. Chritine Feehan--She has 3 series. 1. Vampires, 2. Genetically tampered military men and women with psychic powers, 3. a family of women who have powers of "witchcraft" These are all fairly tame and good although the latest in the vampire series is a bit scary and I haven't gotten past the first few pages. Hannah Howell--mainly writes highlander romance but has a few out with vampires. Sherrilyn Kenyon--The best! Her darkhunter series about vampire hunters that mixes in Greek mythology is great. Start at the beginning and work your way through all the books. Susan Krinard--the first to write warewolf romance. The older books are good. The new ones are edgier. Shelly Laurenston--funny, funny, funny. Karen Marie Moning--loved her earlier books but the last few are just too dark and scary. Patricia Rice--a whole series about magic that is delightful. Lyndsay Sands--Great vampire books with an Atlantis connection. Susan Sizemore Kerrelyn Sparks Michelle Bardsley Erin McCarthy--funny books That is my list right now. I actually read all types of romance: Contemporary, historical, regency, western, science fiction, comic book (yes there are a few series out there about superheroes). Hope this helps her find something to read.:001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny in Atl Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 These look like bodice rippers, but for the paranormal set? If so I have heard Gena Showalter's bks are good. I know of some good YA ones (Wicked Lovely & Ink Exchange, Holly Black's Tithe, Ironside, & Valiant, A Certain Slant of Light by Laura Whitcome, and Kelly Armstrong's Summoning). I have not yet ventured back out into the world of adult romance (regular or paranormal) since college. Oh and I too love Garth Nix's Abhorsen Trilogy! Very much worth the read. Maybe I will add a paranormal romance section to my 999 list... :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
