Paranormal Romance and Urban Fantasy Addicts discussion

This year has been a little crazy for me. I gave birth to my first child! An adorable baby boy. So, obviously, I've been quite busy. Not a lot of time for reading. :( But it's time to find something new to read that's worthy of my suddenly limited time. I'm on the hunt.

So I thought I'd start a thread for us to post our absolute favorite books (so far) of 2022.

👶👶👶 Congrats on your bundle of joy! 👶👶👶

These are all books I've read that I've loved even though not all were 5 stars.

this was an unexpected 5 star CR, and has a follow-up with the FMCs sister which I still need to get to.

a 5 star CR follow up to a 5 star CR that I read last year. I love this author's voice.

a fav book by a fav author.

Ongoing series
Super fun marriage of convenience alien/monster romances!!!

dark, gruesome, bloody, alien invasion post-apocalypse.

Has now become my fav (non romance based) UF series ever! Also... a murdery sentient sword!!!


Completed series
high fantasy with a romance sub plot, and a mildly sentient sword!

Finale in the most unique shifter series I've ever read. I read the first four and the novella last year and could have kicked myself for leaving it so long. More people should read this series.

Wild Fae This book is a secret gem. More people need to read this!!

I’ve been looking for a wolf shifter series..something different! Thanks for the lead!

These books all sound great.

Undertaking of Hart and Mercy.

Hero is a magical cop. Heroine is an undertaker who buries the dead and prepares them for burial. I thought this would be too weird for me but I really liked the book. You saw them fall in love.

Honey Phillips - Kate and the Kraken

Ilona Andrews had some great books this year.

The series I loved in 2022 was Karen Lynch's Relentless series. So good. :-)
