Can anyone recommend a book or series that does not end in tragedy or a lot of death? It can be a romance, drama, comedy, action, paranormal, fantasy, or all of the above. Most of the books I've stumbled on lately ended with the death of many characters or a depressing ending instead of on a positive or happy note.

[Denise Nanna]

Paranormal? Normal? Romance?

Duncan was my favorite in the whole series - I just loved him!

I just finished reading The Gender End by Bella Forrest, which was #7 in the series of the Gender Games Series, and the final book. It was an amazing ending to a great series. Not paranormal romance, but definitely a fantasy type setting - kind of along the lines of Divergent/Maze Runner/Hunger Games sort of thing. Now I'm about to start Burn for Me (Hidden Legacy #1) by Ilona Andrews - my first book by this author, or author team, I should say. I'm excited, I've heard amazing reviews!

[Natalie]

I might try The Gender End. Is it young adult or is there a bit more romance like new adult?

[Clara]

Natalie wrote: "I might try The Gender End. Is it young adult or is there a bit more romance like new adult?"

There is a romance in it, but it isn't the driving plot line, its more of almost a sub plot line, where saving the world is the more dominant plot line, but there is a romance there. Don't expect any explicit sex scenes though, the couple of scenes there are, are not very descriptive. Yet I wouldn't classifly it as young adult because there is a lot of fighting and violence. Of course, I'm no expert at where the lines are drawn, and I'm not really sure what in the world "new adult" is! I'm still trying to figure that one out! It is a great series though.

[Natalie]

That sounds great. I'm not into books where there's a sex scene every chapter but as long as it's along side the main plot then it's fine. I was under the impression that new adult was kind of between young adult and adult?? Like 18-21 year olds as the main characters. I will definitely give these books a read as they sound good. Thanks for sharing!

[Timelord Iain]

New Adult is basically college age... 18-24 I guess... and not very graphic... I tend to avoid YA/NA... I'm not a fan of angst and love triangles

[Natalie]

No I also hate love triangles.

[Claudia]

I finished and I wasn't impressed. Then, I read : interesting world, good story, attractive characters, a lot of action and romance... Everything I'm looking for.

[KritikaB]

Just finished last night. I always love Amelia Peabody series and have read every one of them. I, as expected, enjoy this one very much but, also very sad as this will be the last of the series. RIP Elizabeth Peters.
Now, I will move on to a book from my another favorite author.

[Christy]

Finished up and what a spectacular addition to this brilliant series! It hit the ground running and did not stop. Lots of curveballs. Ending leaves you really hanging so here's to hoping the authors giving us a fourth and fifth book and possibly so on. Now reading . So far another great book by Elizabeth Hunter.

Have you read the Jane Yellowrock series by Faith Hunter?

[JoAnne]

I read Furr by Axel Howerton. It's a great read!

[Crazy4more]

Finished loved it and moving on

Braving myself for ...why do I put myself thru this intensity. Loving though, see what I mean?

[Timelord Iain]

I'm sad there is no new Innkeeper Chronicles this year... or have they done any of the shorter stories they talked about and I just missed the memo?...

I've read/listened to some stuff recently... ... enjoyed all of it a lot except maybe Armed & Magical... and that might just be the narrator... tainted by some audiobooks I listened to her narrate before that I didn't like, I think...

[Melissa]

I'm currently on a Helen Hardt / Louise Bay / Anna Zaires kick. The current book is by Helen Hardt "Sophie's Voice" which is the fourth book in Sex and the Season series. I love every single one of them! Romance, sex, love, handsome men and beautiful women. I was at first skeptical because of the time period it takes place in but that adds so much more to it in my opinion!

Hello, everyone. My name is Drew and I am new to this group. I am looking for a new series to read. I am looking for a paranormal series like that of The Elemental Assassin series by Jennifer Estep. I am not looking for that much in the way of sex scenes. The series has to be at least 5 novels but it can be more. Also, it cannot be anything like Twilight series. It needs to have a plot.
Any ideas??

Hi Drew! Welcome! Have you tried Ilona Andrews's stuff? They're my uber favorite authors. (Ilona Andrews is the pen name of a husband wife team.) And the Kate Daniels series is one I would definitely recommend. The books are totally so far from Twilight because the books have an actual storyline. LOL ;p

Anyhoo, book one in the Kate Daniels series is .

[Crazy4more]

Finished audiobook , next .

Amazing !!!

[Timelord Iain]

If you're just looking for great Urban Fantasy series with minimal sex, I would concur with the recommendations above and add Seanan McGuire and Anne Bishop...



When I start trying to think of series similar to other series, it gets harder, because I can usually only think of series that are basically rip-offs of one another... like Black Dagger Brotherhood vs Midnight Breeds and Breeds vs New Species... basically same general plot, but different authors...

[Clara]

I finally just started reading the Dark Hunter series by Sherrilyn Kenyon. Loving in so far! I'm on the second book. Think it will take awhile to read through this series, it has a lot of books in it, though they are quick to read because they are so good! :)

[Timelord Iain]

I was a big fan of the series through Acheron... my love of the series started to wain after that... Styxx was great tho...

Did you read Fantasy Lover?... it's not technically a Dark-Hunter novel, but Julian and Grace are brought in near the very beginning of Night Pleasures, so...

[Clara]

Iain wrote: "I was a big fan of the series through Acheron... my love of the series started to wain after that... Styxx was great tho...

Did you read Fantasy Lover?...."

Hi Iain,

You know,
I realized after part way through Night Pleasures, that I had obviously missed reading Fantasy Lover. On Amazon they made it confusing - it looked like there were 2 different Book 1's. They had both Fantasy Lover and Night Pleasers marked as Book 1. So I went with the one that sounded like it was more like a Dark Hunter storyline. It was confusing. After the fact I looked on Goodreads and the had Fantasy Lover marked as book one and Night Pleasure Marked as Book 2. Very odd. But everything else is marked as it should be I think. So anyway I think I'm going to go back and read Fantasy Lover before I get too deep into the series. What do you think, is it worth going back to read? Or should I just continue on?

[Timelord Iain]

I don't think you miss too much skipping Fantasy Lover... but Julian isn't going anywhere... he pops up from time to time... especially through to Acheron's book when all the books take place in New Orleans still...

But you may as well read it for completeness... the book is more "traditional" romance with less Urban Fantasy elements... Grace's friend summons a sex slave from a magical book... the book is spent trying to find a way to break the curse and free Julian from the book...

And you want to be using this series list for reading in order: https://www.goodreads.com/series/1533...

Everything Sherrilyn Kenyon writes is connected (to her detriment at this point, in my opinion, since now even is part of the mythos thanks to )... so you have Fantasy Lover then Dark-Hunters, Dream-Hunters, Were-hunters, Hell-Chasers, then Chronicles of Nick starts sprinkling in (even tho this is a prequel series about Nick the Squire, time-travel is involved and his actions are changing the timeline to save the future... so they should be read in publication order technically starting around book 18... whenever Acheron first comments on a change in the timeline from events experienced in that only he remembers both versions of)... recently Kenyon started trilogy connected to Hellchasers... like I said... everything is connected... and it's led to a bit of a convoluted mythology...

I got a bit sick and tired of how complicated it's all become and quit recently... but the series is great at least through Acheron, and even if you stop at some point after that, you should skip ahead and at least read Styxx...

[Debbie]

HI Lain,
I love the Dark Hunter series but totally understand where you're coming from in your note above. It is a huge universe & complicated. I usually just go with the flow and try not to get hung up on all the history. Do you like her League series? I love that one too!

[JoAnne]

#3 in the Ordinary Magic series by Devon Monk

Terry Spear's SEAL Wolf Hunting

[Timelord Iain]

I never tried her League series... i never fully appreciated how complicated Dark Hunters was until I ended up on the wiki page for Apollymi and learned things I missed in the books or don't know how/where I was supposed to learn...

Thank you for the series list! I think that will be a big help - it was getting confusing, especially since Goodreads and Amazon seem to have some of them numbered differently! Thank you!

[Jessa]

RhapsodicI just finished Rapsodic by Laura Thalassa! Normally don't like first first person, but definitely got sucked in by the hot chemistry and world building. Would recommend to anyone who wants a fast schmexy read ;)

[Timelord Iain]

Even that series list isn't entirely to my liking... as many interconnected series as there are, most of them xx.5 books aren't short stories but full length books... Acheron was like the 22nd story I read... Styxx the 33rd...

[Timelord Iain]

Or maybe I'm just misremembering all of a sudden....... the list is proving me wrong... later on tho, listing books in 5 different series is a bit overkill just because the MCs talk to a Were-hunter or Dream-hunter or Hellchaser for a few minutes

[Natalie]

Just finished Kalayna Price's Alex Craft series and moving into Melanie Karsak's Harvrsting series, seems great so far.
