Holly Black

A Modern Fearie Tale
1. Tithe
2. Valiant
3. Ironside
These books gave me my first look into the dark, and racy side of YA books. I absolutely loved them but was surprised to see them labeled as YA. I wish Holly would continue on with Kaye and Roiben's story but she has no plan on it right now. Her new book White Cat will be released in May of 2010 and I cant wait for that.

The Eternal Kiss: 13 Vampire Stories

This is a good book to take a look at when in search for different authors writing. After reading Kelly Armstrong's "Kat" she is now on my "Must Read List." I bought the book originally because I love Cassandra Clare and Holly Black but got some good glimpse into other series.

Wolf Tales by Kate Douglas



Warning..this book is for mature readers!!
At the time I read this I was trying the world of Werewolves because I had read quite a bit of Vampires but this just wasn't a world I was interested after I finished reading it. I need a good story not just a juicy one. I felt it was missing something and relied too much on all the sex to carry the story. I don't think I will be reading the rest of the series which is HUGE by the way.

Sherrilyn Kenyon

Warning..these books are for mature readers!!
I'm really excited to be adding Sherrylyn's books because I absolutely love them. Her book series hold a special places in my heart. She is a fantastic writer. Her books are funny, sad, exciting, witty and full of every emotion possible. I was laughing one minute and cry the next. It's a great roller coaster ride of emotions but totally worth it because the girl always gets the HOT guy in these books ;) You will just love all her characters and her stories are amazing and so imaginative. Check out all her books on her website. She has tons of books and series.
(FYI-As you may have noticed each title is rated seperatly. I have placed a R (for Rating) plus the number of hearts I would have placed there. This way I will not take up so much space.)

Sunny























Warning..these books are for mature readers!!
The Monere Series
1. Mona Lisa Awakening
2. Mona Lisa Three (anthology in Over The Moon)
3. Mona Lisa Blossoning
4. Mona Lisa Betwining (anthology in On the Prowl)
5. Mona Lisa Craving
6. Mona Lisa Darkening
Creative, Imaginitive and sexy. This series will make you warm all over. Lots and lots of sex in these books but also a wonderfully creative story. Sunny's world is fasinating with her shapshifters originally being from the moon which use to be a florishing planet with life and land before it became what it is now. I love these books.
Rating-5



The Demon Princess Chronicles
1. Lucinda, Darkly
2. Lucinda, Dangerously
This series is a spin off from The Monere Series. If focuses on Lucinda and the different Hells that are in the creative Moneres Series world. Lucinda is an awesome heroine in these books but I have to admit there is a little too much love spreading in this series. You have to read to find out what I'm talking about;)

Enchanted Series by Nancy Madore






Warning..these books are for mature readers!!
Enchanted- These are short stories based on fairytale characters that have an adult twist to them.This first book was very pleasant and nice to read at bedtime.

Rating-4

Enchanted Again- I was a little disappointed with how dark and scary these stories are compared to her first book. I think it would have been better if she kept the story in a fantasy world rather than modern day real life comparisons.

Rating- 2

Enchanted Dreams- I have not read this one yet and don't know if I will.
