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.
4. Some Girls Bite (Chicagoland Vampires #1) by Chloe Neill - Urban fantasy was never my favorite genre. Ethan and Merit changed my mind.
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.
8. Halfway to the Grave (Night Huntress #1) by Jeaniene Frost - If I can call a 300-year-old vampire a "book boyfriend," then Bones is it. Not only is he completely awesome, but reading his and Cat's story is so much fun.
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
My Top Ten.
Have a great week!
Vampire Academy for the win! It's like this book is on everyone's list today! :) Great list, Krista! I haven't read those other books (except The Infernal Devices series) but I've read a lot of good reviews about them. :)
Here’s my TTT
Julie @ Books and Insomnia
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.
A great list! I really love Cinda Williams Chima's Seven Realms series as well!
Thanks for visiting my TTT :)
Nara @ Looking for the Panacea
I'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!
I'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!
I 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
Here's my Top 10
Clockwork Angel was actually recommended to me a lot last year, so I ended up purchasing the book (still need to read it though). I actually haven't heard of any of these other books, though, so thank you for this list. I'm added a few onto my TBR!
Great list, Krista! In addition to most of those, I recommend Anna and the French Kiss and Divergent. :)
I still need to read Under the Never Sky! :) Thanks for stopping by my TTT list!

I 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. :)
