Jordyn Ballew | 2 comments I love YA paranormal romance books.. But, i'de rathet have each book based on a different couple. Like the grey wolves series by quinn loftin and elemental series by brigid kemmerer. If you have readthose books then u realise all the characters are connected as siblings or friends. Does anyone have a recommendation for me???

Kayla (kaylawrites89) | 352 comments It's not paranormal, but it is YA and I thought it was a really good series. It has brother's in it Perfect Chemistry (Perfect Chemistry, #1) by Simone Elkeles Rules of Attraction (Perfect Chemistry, #2) by Simone Elkeles Chain Reaction (Perfect Chemistry, #3) by Simone Elkeles
I've also really like some YA Paranormal books like Firelight (Firelight, #1) by Sophie Jordan , Graceling (Graceling Realm, #1) by Kristin Cashore , Unearthly (Unearthly, #1) by Cynthia Hand , Leopard Moon (Moon, #1) by Jeanette Battista , My Soul to Take (Soul Screamers, #1) by Rachel Vincent Warm Bodies (Warm Bodies, #1) by Isaac Marion

They're all stories that interlock together, but they're all different and about different couples.
Night World, No. 1 (Night World, #1-3) by L.J. Smith Night World, No. 2 (Night World, #4-6) by L.J. Smith Night World, No. 3 (Night World, #7-9) by L.J. Smith Strange Fate (Night World, #10) by L.J. Smith

Some of the stand alone paranormal YA books I've read and loved:
The Silver Kiss by Annette Curtis Klause Sea Change by Aimee Friedman

Ann (annhunter) | 8 comments I have a retelling of Beauty & The Beast with a ghost running around. Does that pique your interest?
The Subtle Beauty

How about a retelling of The Swan Princess with demons, a banshee, and imps?
