Top Ten Books/Series I Recommend the Most
1. Vampire Academy (Vampire Academy #1) by Richelle Mead - Pro number one, the series is complete. Pro number two, all the characters are so vibrant and exciting, it's easy to fall in love with all of them. Pro number three, the overarching story is so full of win!2. The Demon King (Seven Realms #1) by Cinda Williams Chima - This is the first fantasy series that I truly fell in love with. It's one of the best series I've ever read period.
3. Obsidian (Lux #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout - I went into it picturing E.T. and came out of it picturing Daemon Black. I'd say my first alien book ever was a huge hit with me.
5. Dark Lover (Black Dagger Brotherhood #1) by J.R. Ward - I love the way the vampire world in the Black Dagger Brotherhood's Caldwell, NY is portrayed. And the Brothers are such modern day white knights, you can't help but love them all.
6. Under the Never Sky (Under the Never Sky #1) by Veronica Rossi - This was the best dystopian book I've ever read. The series has just one book left, and I'll be so sad when Perry's, Aria's and Roar's stories come to an end.
7. Clockwork Angel (Infernal Devices #1) by Cassandra Clare - The release last week of Clockwork Princess put the exclamation point on this incredible series. I'll recommend it to anyone who will listen.
9. Half-Blood (Covenant #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout - I've always been a huge Greek Mythology fan, and the Covenant series takes the best parts of it and melds it with our modern world.
10. The Iron King (The Iron Fey #1) by Julie Kagawa - This was the series that started my obsession with all things Julie Kagawa. It's the best faery series out there, in my humble opinion.
Krista what a fantastic list :D

Julie @ Books and Insomnia
I just love the VA series. I've been thinking lately that it's about time for a re-read!
DeleteOff to check out your list!
What an interesting list - I'll be checking out some of those. I would always recommend the morganville vampires, amy plum's die for me, maggie stiefvater's wolves of mercy falls trilogy and tessa gratton's blood magic.
ReplyDeleteHi Bobbie! The Revenants series most definitely would make my honorable mention list. I've read all three books in that series and LOVE them! Thanks for checking out my list!

Nara @ Looking for the Panacea
The Seven Realms series is so amazing - The Crimson Crown was the absolute perfect ending!
DeleteI've started Halfway to the Grave three times... and not been able to finish it. I don't know what it is. I think I'm going to give it another try. I love the Chicagoland vampires and the Black Dagger Brotherhood is one of my all time favourite series!
ReplyDeleteI've read the Lux series but the Covenant series is one I'm eager to start. Your comments have just made me anticipate reading the first book that much more. Great list!
The Covenant series is so incredible! I hope you enjoy it!
DeleteI SOOOO agree with you on Obsidian. My first alien book was such a huge hit on me. Clockwork Angel and The Iron King are a must-read! Great recs! :D

DeleteI just started the Vampire Academy series, and it's interesting so far. I have to agree with you about the Under The Never Sky books, they're so good! I wasn't really expecting to like the Lux series as much as I did, but now I'm addicted to Daemon and Katy. :)
