Vampires

The whole world has gone "Twilight" crazy. I admit I really like Vampires but I think that there are other series that are far better. Katie Macalister writes one of the funniest vampire/romance books that I have read. Her characters are interesting and the situations they get into are hilarious. (titles include: The Last of the Red Hot Vampires, Even Vampires get the Blues, and Sex, Lies and Vampires, etc.) Lynsay Sands has a great vampire series that revolves around the Argeneau family. These books are also fairly light and humourous. (Titles include: A Bite To Remember, Love Bites, Single White Vampire, etc.) The queen of serious vampire romance is Christine Feehan. (Titles include: Dark Desire, Dark Gold, Dark Fire, etc.) Nora Roberts has a vampire trilogy too (Morrigan' s Cross, Dance of the Gods and Valley of Silence) Lastly, the library just got in most of the books in the Sookie Stackhouse series by Charlaine Harris. These books are what the HBO "True Blood" show is based on. (Titles include: Dead as a Doornail, Dead Until Dark, All Together Dead, etc.) Happy Reading - N.

Funny Stuff

Janet Evanovich has one of the funniest book series in print. Her Stephanie Plum books start with One For the Dough and continue to the latest book; Fearless Fourteen. These books are light and funny, full of bizarre characters and zany situations. The books follow Stephanie Plum, a not so talented bounty hunter, and her attempts to apprehend fugitives.

If you have read and like Janet Evanovich's books you may also want to try: Jennifer Crusie - Faking It, Agnes and the Hitman, Katie MacAlister - A Hard Day's Knight, The Corset Diaries, Sandra Hill - Pink Jinx, Red Hot Cajun, and Carl Hiaasen - Skinny Dip, Lucky You.
