Once Upon a Twilight blog discussion

I won Nightshade the other day...I have so many books to read. I am not sure when I will get to it though

Mandy and Lou Its The Twilight of Wolves. My fave for 2010

That is saying a lot, Yara! Ok, it's moving up now. I think I'm working on my fave right now so far

There are so many good books. I will say I adored

I am reading Nightshade now and almost done. soo good. so Yara..I am liking Ren more than Shay...what about you?

Yes Im a fan of Ren!

House of Night Series by P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast, Twilight Saga by Stephenie Meyer and Hush Hush Series by Becca Fitzpatrick

Andreia I love Hush Hush too. Reading Crescendo now.

I just read Jane by: April Lindner and I am absolutely in love with it!

I've got a good book suggestion if you're looking for chick lit. The Opposite of Loveby Julie Buxbaumthis was a great book. It was funny and smart. They're going to make it into a movie and Anne Hathaway is suppose to be the star.
I just adored this book.

Oh cool Thank for the FYI

My most favorite is the Twilight series because it re ignited my love of reading and got me to start reading more. My other favorites are Wicked Lovely series and Immortals series by Alyson Noel, House of Night series.

I am so glad to see others liked Ren more also! I really like him more than Shay and wondered if I was crazy.

Some of my other fave series besides Twilight are Vampire Academy (Mead), The Wolves of Mercy Falls (Stiefvater), Blue Bloods (de la Cruz), the Immortals (Noel), Hush Hush (Fitzpatrick) and Fallen (Kate). An adult series that I love is the Fever series by Karen Marie Moning that deals with faeries.

I really don't see how there was a connection btw her and Shay?? hope the author doesn't have her heart set on Calla and Shay being together :P

I am on Captivate of the Need series. I am just in love with this series!! I just got Entice in the other day and hope to start it tomorrow.

we have very similar likes

I have to start this series at some point

Oh, that Need series is SO good too!

I, in all honesty, read a lot of series books. It's like a weird addiction - because I have some sort of inability to read stand alones unless it's by an author I really like (Like Meg Cabot). Some of my favorites have been The Princess Diaries (Meg Cabot), Sweep (Cate Tiernan), Shiver (Maggie Stiefvater), Hush, Hush (Becca Fitzpatrick), Fallen (Lauren Kate), Harry Potter (J.K. Rowling), The Hunger Games (Suzanne Collins) and I'm currently on The Immortals series (Alyson Noel). I also know I'm going to be reading a couple others series books this year alone, and I'm really excited - The Mortal Instruments, Mediator, and Vampire Academy are all I can remember off the top of my head!

The Secret of The Immortal Nicholas Flamel

I love the Sookie series...but I have been trying to read #10 Dead in the Family. but it keeps dragging on and on and on. there is no action, nothing. its just...there.

One of my favorite series is the "The Feather Series" by Abra Ebner. I also loved the "Need series", but the "The Hunger Games" has recently become one of my new favorites.

My favorite series, besides Twilight, is J R Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood. I want to kick Yara in the butt for making me read them, but in a way I'm glad she did! The next series that I like is, Hush Hush. I really got into the first two books and can't wait for the third one!

Your Welcome!

My favourite series is Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern, followed closely by The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness by Michelle Paver. And, just recently, I finished reading The Castings Trilogy by Pamela Freeman and loved it.

How could I forget Lord of the Rings! Yes, the writing might be a bit clunky and overdone in places, but there are so many positive aspects to the series--fascinating characters, moral challenges and growth, detailed world building with a lot of depth and imagination, the classic good vs evil battle. Tolkien is one of the authors of fantasy who has influenced many of the aspects of my own writing.

another good series is the Heavenly series by Jennifer Laurens. I loved it.

Ive never read any of those books, Ive seen the movies and dont understand it of course.

I have the first one in my TBR pile, I need to make time for it. Jennifer will be participating in the VDay Hop by giving me stuff to giveaway and a Vday posting.

So far three of my 2011 series faves are: Kelly Keaton's Gods&Monster's, Ann Aguirre's Razorland, and Sophie Littlefield's Aftertime.

I know me too!

My favorite YA series are The Twilight Saga, The Huger Games Trilogy and Scott Westerfield's Pretties, Uglies & Specials. I am looking for more to enjoy. Any suggestions?

Evernight series, Heavenly series by Jennifer Laurens, The Crescent by Jordan Deen and I love anything by Amanda Hocking

I just finished reading Amanda Hocking's Trylle Trilogy. Luved it!

Amanda Hockings Zombie book was great too! Cannot wait for the next one to come out!

I didn't know she had a zombie book out! I'll have to look for it.

Hollowland is the zombie book and she has another series called My Blood Approves...there are like 5 books in it.

Thanks, Mandy!

I really like the Otherworld Series by Kelley Armstrong, and I recently had the first 5 in the Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs kindly donated to me, and fell in love with those.
I did read and adore the Twilight series--however, I haven't reread it since I started writing.
