I need a good Romance or Fantasy book. I really really want to read one. But no romance like Twilight, cause i've read that. So yeah...or Host or anything like that. So help!

I know lots that you'd like! Hold on, I'll just go check out my bookcase a minute.

- City of Bones, City of Ashes, and City of Glass by Cassandra Clare (Amazing books! Her new series comes out in May. I'm so excited!)
- Anything by L.J. Smith, especially The Vampire Diaries! (And if you say that they're a copy of Twilight, as most people do, all I say to you is check the publication dates! :smt005 They're so much better!)
- Anything by Meg Cabot, especially The Mediator Series, Jinx and 1-800-WHERE-R-U series
- Dairy Queen series by Catherine Gilbert Murdock

If you read any of those, I'd love to hear what you thought! Feel free to PM me if you need more books also. See you around!

A good fantasy story (Though pretty much devoid of any romance) is Stephen R. Lawhead's "Byzantium" and it's probably one of the coolest books I've ever read. Also, Lawhead's Pendragon Cycle series is an excellent fantasy seris that I just recently started, all of it based on the Arthur legend, but takes it in an interesting twist.
I'm advertising here: Rosetta...A Determinism of Morality...out May 25th...2010 album of the year, without question.

Tamora pierce has fantasy and romance! You need to get past the first book in Song of the Lioness, but the remaining three have romance. And her other series have romance, in varying degrees.

It's like everyone tells a story about themselves inside their own head. Always. All the time. That story makes you what you are. We build ourselves out of that story.
