I nominate since Lindsay keeps raving about it lol

LOL Melissa one day we will read it.

- is this one alright? And is there any easy way to go through a particular genre on your TBR shelf here on Goodreads?

Looks good to me Janie. I don't know about on your shelf. I know you can go to tags on everyone's shelves though.

I nominate Let the Sky Fall by Shannon Messenger!

I don't think there is. I sort my gr shelves like "contempt read" and "contemp to-be-read" so that when I'm in the bookstore and feel like a contemp I can just look through those shelves.

Bummer. I went through listopia to find a good fantasy one.

I hereby nominate . :D

oooh that's a good one Rie!

I nominate this one!

LOL I'm not sure if I want to read it but everyone says the writing is really pretty so .. MAYBE lol

Does it have to be just one nomination? If so I'll list in order of preference:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7. (Released mid-Sept but I think its available for request on Edelweiss) - Haven't read yet but love the cover so even though its probably not eligible for this round, I just want to show off the pretty cover. =)

Yeah, one a person unfortunately ;)

Silver Phoenix was almost my nomination!

I'm excited about Burning Sky but I liked the old cover so much better!

All of these sounds great!! How do y'all know about all of these books? I have never heard of any of them. A reason I am glad my sister introduced me to y'all: to broaden my reading horizons!! Thank you guys!

I second Wicked Lovely

Finnikin of the Rock is AMAZEBALLS; I highly recommend for all fans of fantasy. I liked Defiance, too and it had a little steampunk in it which was cool. I was disappointed by The Burning Sky but, then again, it may be a good BOTM read because there may be LOTS of discussion. ; )

I'm just going to throw another in the mix for the fun of it.

The 5th Wave by Rick Yancey


This *may* be more sci-fi than fantasy but it lists Fantasy on it's GoodReads main page so... ?
