In other words...
Do you like vampires, shapeshifters, werewolves, etc?

Do you like the main character to be a hunter of some sort?

Ida Suyanto | 21 comments I like everything with magic creatures. The hunters falling in love in their preys. Kinda cliche but it's good. The new Romeo and Juliet version.

My personal favorite happens to be Vamps, and shifters...
I have to say that there is something sexy about a man who is truly in touch with his predatory/animalistic side. They tend to be hot in bed. LOL!!!

Lauren | 244 comments I love all things that are not real hehe. Vampires and weres I like the most.

Joy you are right they are hot in bed! they always seem to know what to do even if they are virgins. hehe


message 5: by Ann (new)

Ann Noell (fantasyannie) I agree with Lauren, I love all things not real also; That is way I read fiction and not non-fiction. I get enough reality in my everyday life, reading puts me in another world far far away from my problems. I also must have a happy ending lol.............

Jackie M | 452 comments My favorite are vampires.


message 7: by Terri (new)

Terri (terrilovescrows) | 188 comments vamps, fae, witches, shifters


message 8: by new_user (new)

new_user I love shifters! And unique creatures too, so long as they're not mud monsters or something, LOL. Gargoyles, djinn, etc., it's all good.

There seem to be very few books about shifters. Vampires have taken over the paranormal genre. Not that I am complaining...I love vamps! I would just like for there to be more shifters. I included shifters in the paranormal romance that I have been writing! :)

Julianna (authorjuliannad) | 654 comments I would try almost any paranormal story, but I think the ones with vamps are my favorites.


message 11: by Chasidy (new)

Chasidy I do love my vampires because they just seem so... uber bad! I do wish there were more weres and faeries. Reading more about Gargoyles would be fun as well.

I've never read a book with gargoyles in it...I remember a kids cartoon with them...
Do you know of any with them? If so, let us know. :)

This is an urban fantasy trilogy with gargoyles by C.E. Murphy:

Heart Of Stone
House of Cards
Hands Of Flame


message 14: by Teryl (new)

Teryl I love vampires and shapeshifters. Lauren Dane has a good wolf shapshifter series called the Cascadian Wolf series. There are a ton of shapeshifters in Sherrilyn Kenyons Dark Hunter, Were Hunter, Dream Hunter series.

new_user For gargoyles, I like Vickie Taylor's Gargouillen series, starting with Carved in Stone. The third one's out next spring, I believe. (They're not ugly, don't worry. xD)

I'd like to see more besides vamps too, Joy.


message 16: by Tricia (new)

Tricia Schneider (triciaschneider) | 18 comments I'll read anything with a vampire involved! :-) But I also like to read about werewolves. Ghosts are a favorite, too, but harder to find.


message 17: by Nikki ♥ (new)

Nikki ♥ Like Lauren and Ann, I love all things not real, but vamps are my favorite.


message 18: by new_user (new)

new_user Julie Leto writes phantom romances, but I can't say I like them, lol. ^^'


message 19: by Chasidy (new)

Chasidy The only story I read that had a gargoyle in it was "Embrace the Darkness" by Alexandra Ivy. The gargoyle was funny as hell though and made me want to read more about them.


Unapologetic_Bookaholic I started with The Dark Hunters but what would you call the main paranormal element in that? I liked shifters mainly for a while but now have branched off into demons and vamps =D.


message 21: by new_user (new)

new_user Maybe you just haven't met the right ones yet, LOL.


message 22: by [deleted user] (new)

Vampires,Demons,etc-almost anything but the animals-wolves,cats,etc


message 23: by Kathy Anne (new)

Kathy Anne (kathyanne) Almost anything except animal shifters.Kresley Cole has a good group-especially Nucking(LOL)

sonya marie madden  | 441 comments i like shifters, vamps, and Heather Graham is a ghost paranormal romance writer. Unhallowed Ground got 4 stars from me.


message 25: by sonya (new)

sonya marie madden  | 441 comments I'm offering my book, Obsessive Trap, for 1.00 at bn.com but if kindle readers order it there, i'll send it to you as a document.

Erin *Proud Book Hoarder* (erinpaperbackstash) I like darker, more gritty Paranormal Romance. Fluffy and funny irritates me, and I hate melodrama.


message 27: by sonya (new)

sonya marie madden  | 441 comments Heather Graham is different but Unhallowed Ground was great.


message 28: by stormhawk (new)

stormhawk | 1184 comments I like more paranormal, less romance ... probably to the point of preferring "Modern Fantasy."


message 29: by Keryl (new)

Keryl Raist (kerylraist) | 66 comments Give me modern day, real world wizards. I know Harry Dresden isn't exactly paranormal romance, but oh yeah... so my kind of man!

Yeah... I like paranormal that is more modern too. Occasionally, I'm okay with it being set in the past or a completely new world though. I think it's interesting when it's pretty much Urban Fantasy too. :)


Dragonflydreamer68 any kind of paranormal as long as it doesnt have the boring romance,lol.

message 34: by Anne (new)

Anne (crazybakingmom) | 724 comments I would have to agree with more modern paranormal and I also like different worlds.


message 35: by J. (new)

J. (silverwulfess) | 1 comments I love most forms of paranormal romance involving shifters, werewolves or vampires.


message 36: by Sydney (new)

Sydney Wallace | 18 comments I like romances with shifters as well. Werewolves are a fave. :)
