Best Paranormal & Fantasy Romances (2076 books)

Best Paranormal & Fantasy Romances

A list for fans of the paranormal and fantasy romance genre. Please add your votes for the best in this genre. All Paranormal & Fantasy Romances are valid. They do not have to be first in a series.

Note: This list was hit back in July 2012 by a serial deleter who removed nearly 250 books that weren't first in a series. Thousands of votes were lost and unfortunately, there is no way to recover them. If you voted for a book that has been deleted, please re-add the book(s). I'd like to try to rebuild this list as closely as possible to the original, but I don't know all of the books that were deleted. If you voted on this list prior to July, please help with this endeavor, so that we can come as close to the original list as possible. Thanks!

Update 2/25/13 - Thanks to everyone who has re-added books! The list is starting to come along, but we're still a long way from where it was before all the deletions. If you haven't done so already, please help us rebuild the list.

I've only read Twilight (out of these books) and I can't say that wins best paranormal romance. I could think of twenty others that are much better, but Twilight wins by default, I guess.

I am not familiar with most of these books, but 'Remote Control', was terrific, witty, original and fun to read. Some very scary parts dealing with heights made me feel that I was in the same place as the characters in the book and I had to hold tight to chair.

You left off the best ones! I loved the Nora Roberts "Key" trilogy as well as her "Morrigan's Cross" series. Those are the ones I would have voted for. I don't think the rest even hold a candle!

Sookie's Stackhouse of Charlaine Harris, already add on my list but not yet finish from all series.

She was created her own world on Sookie's series with a lot supernatural and myths stuff. Very very imaginative, I really like it and add new reference on my head ;D.

I love and adore all of Kelley Armstrongs books. I've started reading Patricia Briggs. Twilight, of course, must be mentioned as a good, clean, romance. Vampire Academy was really good. I'm not sure if they're on the list, because there are a lot of books, but i also love Kim Harrison and Colleen Gleason for paranormal romance, and Michelle Bardsley for quick reads :)

JR Ward is the author, the Black Dagger Brotherhood is the series and it's the best acc'd to most of my fellow pnr (paranormal romance) friends. I voted for the first book in that series as I usually like the first one the best and in this case it holds true: Dark Lover. I would add Jeanienne frost as best new pnr author and Christine Feehan as one of the most popular of all time.

Oh and I would add that Twilight is the most popular in the YA (young adult) paranormal romance category.

Just my opinion, but I do know it's shared by many as I read these like a junkie and have lot's of friends that are very into the genre as well.

My teenager forced me to read Twilight, I did enjoy it but I usually like my books a bit more rated R rather than pg. I am now planning to read New Moon before the movie comes out :)

message 19: by Pam (new)

Jun 23, 2009 11:00am

So far I've only read Twilight. New Moon is on my tbr (to be read) list. I have till Nov when the movie comes out to read it so I've been taking my time. I did like the book a little better than the movie because I thought I understood Edward, and liked him better in the book. He seemed a bit more aloof in the movie than he did in the book and his character seemed more vibrant in the book so it enriched the whole story.

I will try to find time to write a review, and then one for New Moon when I finally get to read it :)

Awesome!
Bella in the movie wasn't at all like in the book. I'm sorry to say, but Bella in the movie, was expressionless.

Edward in my mind, is way different than the Edward in Twilight.

Nope, they are not all YA. In fact Elizabeth Amber is WAYYYY not YA. Wow, you read all these books and think they're terrible but you didn't notice that MOST of them aren't Young Adult? Amazing. Personally, I don't read much YA and I did read most of these books. I Highly recommend JR Ward, Christine Feehan, and Jeaniene Frost, just to name a few favorites. These are all PNR (paranormal romance), so if that isn't your cup of tea perhaps you should skip them.
