Elisabeth Naughton is pretty good, she is paranormal romance, Gena Showalter is also paranormal romance. All of their books I have read so far are pretty good. Michael Grant, author of the Gone Series.
If I think of anymore I will send them your way...
Hahaha I have ventured into the "trashy" erotica novels aka Fifty Shades of Grey....they made me blush! hahaha I'm don't really care for the vulgar stuff or when you can throw a stone and can't miss a page of them going at it. It becomes an eye roll moment every time!

I really loved Paper Towns. In particular, I loved the increased suspense and mystery that is unique to this story, compared to Green's other book. Most of the story is a full on mystery rather than heart-wrenchingly sad. It's definitely a winner with me. I don't think I'll ever forget the character of Margo, either.
Like 50sweetrevenges, I haven't gotten around to Let it Snow. It's on my to-read list, though, just because it's co-written with John Green. It seems to be one of Green's more over-looked books, and I wonder if that's because it's not one of his best..?

Maybe ... I really have no idea. Maybe because people like John Green books only, not co-written books. But, fir me Will grayson, Will grayson is not a book that captured my attention. I read it all and it's good, funny, and well written to show the point of view of sone gay lives and I really appreciate that John went down that road because not many do.

haines_drew, I didn't care for An Abundance of Katherines quite so much. I mean, it wasn't awful or anything. But Colin annoyed me after a while, and I didn't feel like the conflict was urgent/important enough. I'm curious what drew you (no pun intended) to that book more than Green's others.
