Guess that is all for now. This is very general but I loved the characters in all of the books listed above along with the story line. Many have a lot of family ties, humor and quirky family members.
Here are my very, very favorites - besides Emily's work:
The All Souls Trilogy, by Deborah Harkness (A Discovery of Witches, Shadow of Night, and The Book of Life). The series is paranormal but it is so much more that one genre doesn't even begin to cover it. It's deeply romantic, mysterious, suspenseful, and absolutely full of history. There is science, everything from Darwin to DNA. It's about home and family. It turns every other vampire-witch series completely on its ear. It deals with faith in a powerful way. Traditional values are woven in, and the sensuality is very subtle. You will never read another series like it.
The Gabriel Series, by Sylvain Reynard (Gabriel's Inferno, Gabriel's Rapture, Gabriel's Redemption) - A powerful story of redemption and transformation. Some sex, some strong language, but it supports the theme and sets the stage for the complete transformation of the lead character, a truly lost, lonely man. The sensual scenes are few, far between, and so tastefully done that they are seriously reverent. The build-up is a slow burn ... and this is why it has an avid international following.
The Words Series, by Georgina Guthrie. (The Weight of Words, Better Deeds Than Words ... and I can't remember the 3rd one right now...plus a novella that is as sweet as can be). There is definitely more sex and it's pretty hot, because this is new adult, college romance and the sexual tension is central to the conflict in the story; but the theme - the meaning of words - what we say, when, how we say them, how they affect us - and the weaving of the works of Shakespeare throughout makes it a really special reading experience.

Jessica, did you hear that Deborah Harkness is writing another series based on the characters from the original trilogy? It's called The Serpent's Mirror and it's about the de Clermont archives...coming in 2017. I did the happy dance all over the house!!
