Amanda's Recommended Reads

"Reading usually precedes writing and the impulse to write is almost always fired by reading. Reading, the love of reading, is what makes you dream of becoming a writer." Susan Sontag

(Listed in no particular order, and by no means a comprehensive list!)

Note: I am constantly discovering authors that I haven't read before, and I am frequently amazed with the quality of writing that is out there! It would be impossible for me to list all of the authors that I have enjoyed. The authors I have listed here are writers whom I can always count on to deliver a fantastic story that I won't be able to put down. (And I'm always open for recommendations, too!!)


~Karen Moning:
(Superb time travel romances. They suck you in and don't let you leave your comfy reading spot;) )

~Michele Bardsley:
( Sassy paranormal stories. I can't put down her current vampire novel!!)

~Janet Chapman:
(Fun and endearing time travel romances.)

~Jo Ann Ferguson/Jocelyn Kelley:
(LOVE her medieval books that she writes as Jocelyn Kelley. Talk about "kick ass" heroines!)

~Annette Blair
(Annette has written a number of fabulous historicals, and is now the bestselling author of a contemporary witch series, which is sexy- and funny, too!)

~Sherrilyn Kenyon/Kinley MacGregor:
(Fantasy, Paranormal, contemporary as Kenyon, historical as MacGregor, and very sexy!)
