I'm always searching for a good book, and they'res nothing better than curling up with a book so good that you just don't want to put it down, so you spend a good chunk of the day reading about your beloved characters on their latest adventure. I've always loved to read as long as there is something interesting about the story that catches my interest and draws me in. I read mainly paranormal urban romances, contemporary chick lit books and some historical romances ... anything as long as it's with quirky and funny, delightful characters, then I'm sure to love it.
Some of my favorite authors are: Laurell K. Hamilton, Charlaine Harris, MaryJanice Davidson, Jennifer Crusie, Marian Keyes, Kim Harrison, Jeaniene Frost, Kerrelyn Sparks, Keri Arthur,Yasmine Galenorn, Rachel Vincent, Stephenie Meyer (Love those Twilight books) and Michele Bardsley ...just to name a few... my fave author list keeps growing with each new series I find :)
