I can never pick out a best or favorite book of mine. I have so many. So I'll just start by saying that my favorite paranormal series is the Vampire Academy series (along with the Bloodlines series).

I really like Patch and Nora. I read the whole series except for Finale. I really like the House of Night series too, but only before there were too many books, too many romantic interests, and too many things going on for my taste. I don't go for really long series.
Mod
I usually read much shorter series, like trilogies or ones with 4-5 books in it. One of the longest that I've read must be the Vampire Academy series. It has 6 books in it, and there's three so far in the spin-off series. So that's 9 that goes along with the same concept and similar characters. But I'm nowhere near bored with those books.

I used to like House of Night too but it was dragged too much.Obsidian(lux novels)are amazing!
Yeah, Jennifer L. Armentrout is really good. Her Covenant series is also amazing.

Is it the eyes? I find his eyes weird looking. It's a great book, though.
Mod
:D Don't let the eyes deceive you. Daemon's a great character.

VAMPIRE ACADEMY IS AWESOME! the only vampire book I actually like.I've heard that the Wicca series started off good but the author stretched the books too much and the ending sucked.
I like Jennifer Armentrout's stuff but I believe that her ideas aren't so original.
and ummm my favorite book? I cannot name that because there are way too many but I read Altered this year and I LOVED it! :) (it's by Jennifer Rush)

I finished the book Ruined by Lucy Christopher yesterday and I LOVED it! :'D
right now I think the Lux series is my favorite and stands out the most for me
I love love love the Across the Universe trilogy <3
There are soooo many books I love, but Percy Jackson, TID, Seven Realms, Shadow Falls, and so many more <3

I really liked the House of Night too. But now the series has lost me.

I had a feeling that's what those were. I've seen those mentioned by other people on Goodreads, and I've heard they're pretty good. What are they about?
They're about this boy, named Hanson, and he has a friend who is of Clan blood. They meet these wizards setting fire to this mountain. And then stuff unfurls and it's like a crazy political war and all....yeah, I'm not really great at summarizing :S
But the ending of the last book was really sweet, not at all depressing or whatnot

I have the first book and I want to start it... but I don't know.
It's just everyone is gushing about it and I want to read it but I am confused.
I am weird that way.
It's crazy stuff, but it's really clever. And the love...uh..weird quadrilateral, is interesting ><My friend told me it was slow at first, but really, if you get past the first few chapters, you'll love it. Hopefully :)
okay.. love quadrilateral... no NO NOOOOOObut since its fantasy I'll man up and give it a go anyway.
:) You won't regret it, though at least all the books were published, so there's no waiting
I'll take your word for it :DI know I hate waiting
especially for your favourite books (bringing it back to the thread ><)Another favourite book of mine is the Eragon series (Inheritance? Is it called that?)
I've only read the series once, and it was awhile ago now, but all I can remember is great things about the book :D
I love the inheritance cycle:) I remember when the last book was coming out and I really wanted it to have a green cover (don't ask me why) and when it did my day was made:) I do have a problem with the movie though it didn't seem to follow the book very well at all
I've only read Eragon in that series. I have the second book on my bookshelf, though. I had found the hardcover at Goodwill for either four or five dollars. It was too good of a price to pass up. :)
my brother has the first two books in french, so i cant read them >< But i was also so excited for Inheritance when it first came out! Loved the book so much!! :D
I tried Eragon but it didn't work out for me.
Has anyone tried Dark Visions? It might just be my love of psychics or something, but this is definitely one of my #1 fav books.
I've read it. It's a pretty cool book but it moved a little slowly for me.
L.J Smith's books are okay. I've read the first...idk how many, books
I live L.J. Smith books. I've read the first two (each had two in it) of VD. I didn't continue because I feel like the series ended there and there shouldn't have been more added to it. I've also read the secret circle and the night world books. I really liked all of those. And there's the other series I read, but I keep forgetting the title of it.
The Forbidden Game. That's what it's called. Although I only gave it three stars, I still thought it was interesting.
The Secret Circle was my favourite by her. The Nightworld stories were good, but you're right, it feels like there are too many VD books added that arent needed
True. I have yet to read Nightworld, but I stopped reading The Secret Circle after the first 2 bks. The other books...just didn't feel right to me.
There is no best book ever really!One book is just better than the other.
