This is another 3 month challenge for you guys!! In this challenge you will need to read 10 books that focus on a different paranormal creature. You are aiming to read at least one book for each creature. Your creature list:

Angels
Alien (Think sci-fi, other worldly books ex. Ender's Game)
Demon
Dragon
Fairies
Ghosts
Mermaids
Mythology
Shifter (the MC shifts from one physical form to another. ANYTHING BUT A WEREWOLF!! ex. Beastly)
Vampires
Werewolves
Witch
Zombie
Other

This is a change to broaden your reader horizon and find some different genres to fall in love with!! You only need 10 creatures, and I will add more options if I can think of any. Rememeber to post here to get credit for points. Also, let us know what you're reading becuase we may need some suggestions too!!!

Happy Reading

As far as aliens go, would the Halo video game novels work? It takes place in space and features many different aliens.

Also, are we allowed to do more than one creature, because there are only 8 Halo books that I can read.

What do you mean more than more creature? You're suppose to read at least one book about each creature. And yes Halo counts (:

message 16: by Justine (new)

Changelings I was group with shifters. Shifters are any creature who don't shift into werewolves. Unicorns I would put with unicorns. Yes I would put the siren with the mermaid or the mythology since they appear in mythology.


message 18: by Justine (new)

Justine (justinen) Okay.Thanks Valencia
