I'm a huge fan of authors like JK Rowling, Leigh Bardugo, Sarah J. Maas, Chess Desalls, Diana Gabaldon, and Patricia Briggs. I love it when authors can hook me into their worlds and I lose sleep at night wanting to find out what happens next to their characters.

One of the first authors I devoured books by was Anne Rice. She really helped form my love of supernatural and magical stories. I've been hooked ever since.

I'm a huge fan of series books, and my favorites are:
1. Harry Potter by JK Rowling: because it's magical and the characters are amazing, and it's Harry Potter.
2. Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs: I adore Mercy and the trouble she finds herself in. (I mean were's, vampires, fae and a kick-butt heroine? What else could a girl ask for?)
3. Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas: I love Calaena for her love of books and frilly girly clothes, as much as for her ability to be ruthless when it's needed. Sarah J. Maas creates such great well-rounded characters.
4. Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon: I adore Claire's ability to be a strong 20th century woman thrown into the 1700's. This series is for when I want to sink into a story and let hours pass by.
5. The Shadow Demons Saga by Sarah Cannon: This series is fun and what I call book candy. I can devour them fairly quickly and it helps be destress from life. I mean, who wouldn't want to read about demon possessed cheerleaders?
