Top Ten: Favorite Paranormal Young Adults Books

Hosted by The Broke and the Bookish
This week the topic is top ten X genre and I went for Paranormal Young Adults books. I went for more specific to try and narrow it down. Still. It's going to be a hard choice. But here we go!


1. Paranormalcy by Kiersten White
I freaking love this series. Evie is so cute and spunky. And there are some really interesting paranormals in this series that I haven't seen before. I can't wait to see what happens in Endlessly.

2. Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead
This is such a fanastic series that I am still sad is over. I can't wait for more from her. I still haven't picked up Bloodlines but I will soon! I promise!

3. City of Bones by Cassandra Clare
Seriously, I cannot rave about this series enough. And I will not stop. They are amazing. As is my next pick.

4. Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare
I don't think there will ever be a top ten that these books won't be in for me. Unless there is a top ten worst books.
Clare is an amazing author. Shadowhunters in Victorian London. Yes please!

5. Starcrossed by Josephine Angelini
What a wonderful book. I was completely blown away. Ahh. This was such just so great. Please read it.

6. Blue is for Nightmares by Laurie Faria Stolarz
 I really want to read this series again. I fall in love with this in high school. They are so wonderful. Has anyone else read them?


7. The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkins
This book blown me away. The paranormal aspect took me by surprise but was totally awesome!


8. A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray
Part paranormal, part historical fiction. It was great fun and quite sad. I couldn't read them fast enough!


9. White Cat by Holly Black
A con artist family with magical powers. Freaking sweet!


10. Wake by Lisa McMann 
This is such a wonderful series. Beautifully written and enticing. If you haven't read it, what are you waiting for??


 Alright, what is your top ten??

Vampire academy I love that series:)

Sigh, I was really sad when the Vampire Academy series ended too. I'm glad we don't have to completely leave the characters behind! (Although I haven't picked up Bloodlines yet either...)

Karis Jacobstein said...

Awesome, awesome list! I agree with almost every one of these! I would add Anna Dressed in Blood to this list too! It was fabulous!

I loved Wake and the other books in the series. I thought they were really unique.

I really enjoyed Mara Dyer- it was different than I thought it was going to be, but still great! I really need to get to White Cat, Holly Black is just such a solid writer!

Thanks for stopping by my top ten this week!
