Book tastes
I love fantasy/romantasy, urban fantasy, paranormal, romance, and altered fairy tales. Some favorite authors include Kelly Armstrong, Ilona Andrews, Nalini Singh, Patricia Briggs, Shelly Laurenston, Jayne Ann Krentz/Amanda Quick/Jayne Castle, Julie Garwood, Penny Reid. Love dragon books- just finished reading Iron Flame. Recently got into RH books and monster books- really adore Kristy Cunning 's All the Pretty Monsters series and Anne Bishop's Courtyard of the Others series and wouldn't mind a copy since I would definitely re read them. Kathryn Moon's librarian's coven series was awesome. I also enjoy memoirs (about the only nonfiction I read) and reading Asian fairy tales and authors. Other books I loved this year includes "Remarkably Bright Creatures", "In Five Years" (made me ball), "Lonely Hearts Book Club"
Preference for paperback
Don't get this!
Please do not get books I already own and please do not get Christian books.
Other notes
Love vulnerable but strong heroines, strong supporting men with a good redemption arc if they need it, a clever plot, and humor. Prefer werewolves over vampires (sorry Edward) but enjoyed Anita Blake and Sookie Stackhouse and adored Helen "ripper cushions!".
