So I saw this post over at Lisa Loves Literature and thought it looked like fun and I had to do it since I haven't done a "fun" post in ages. Life has gotten crazy these past few months at work and with life in general. My reading time has slipped, my bookstagram picture taking has slipped. It's been a mess, but it's 50% good things at least, the other half is crazy work life stuff, but hopefully that will start trickling down soon. But anyway...onto the fun stuff!
I am borrowing the image headers from Lisa as they're cool and festive and are better than just my font text! Lol.
A million titles starting running through my head on this one! It became overwhelming! Do I choose a recent fave? A classic fave? A villainous vampire or heroic? So naturally, I just defaulted to my first introduction to vampires that spawned the love I still hold dear: Demon in My View by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes!
This was another hard one! I had lots of titles running through my head, almost went with my first werewolf book again but then thought let's go newer old school and go back to a different obsession! 13 to Life all started with me just seeing a cover but I was obsessed! I am an equal supernatural creature lover of course!
Okay this one I am doing with a twist! Strange and Deadly by Susan Dennard releases this week but it's a sort of revamp/redo of her YA debut Something Strange and Deadly! She's made a few tweaks and changes, largely that it is now with adult characters! I will definitely be picking up a copy eventually. I think it's starting as ebook only, so once the paperback version becomes available I will get that as I can't stand reading on my kindle. I think my kindle knows this as it kind of died. It stopped updating at least and new books no longer download. So yeah. We're not on speaking terms anymore. Lol. But the YA version had zombies and that is one of the things that stayed the same for this one!
Yes, I am going all over the place with these picks! Another old school choice because I believe once again this was my first "ghost" book and I loved it! Shadowland was the first book series I remember reading with the ghosts more as characters versus entity to run away from as I think I did read one of those before this one. Lol.
So many great possibilities with this choice but I went with Rachel Morgan from The Hollows series! She's a witch, friends with a pixie and a vampire, dates an elf. This series truly has it all!
Another challenging one to choose! I decided to go off the beaten path and choose a recent read, in The Other Side of the Mirror, Eva learns she has fae in her family background and that she is one and is engage to a fae prince! This was a fun series and I enjoyed the twists and secrets!
I can't believe it's been 4 years since I've read this book! Amy Christine Parker's Flight 171 is about a plane that gets taken over by a demon! So here we have a demon who's in its true element versus being more of a character you grow to love--because yes, I've read many a book where that happens! Lol. This demon needs a new host and is demanding a group of teens pick one among them to be the new host or else the plane and everyone on it is going down! Truly creepy read and will make flying a whole lot scarier too!
And honestly, once I saw this topic, I couldn't NOT choose Obsidian! No, it wasn't my first "teen alien" book as I read the Roswell High series years before this and initially thought this series was trying to be a new Roswell, but that wasn't the case! So glad I took that long ago kindle deal (back when my kindle worked! lol).
