Books I Read
Not my normal fare, I really enjoyed them though!
Emily Wilde (a 3 book series
This is a classic and should be read once IMO
The Alchemist
After listening to my first book by Helen Webber, I decided to read more by this author
In the Middle of Hickory Lane
Another cute one from Helen Webber. My fav was still the first I read
South of the Buttonwood Tree
Books I listened to
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. What was even better I listened to it while on vacation and mostly in nature.
The Fairy Bargains of Prospect Hill
I liked book 2 and 3 even more than this one. Either way…enjoyable
Thorn: Dauntless Path, Book 1
Fantasy is not my preferred genre. I still loved this series
The Theft of Sunlight: Dauntless Path, Book 2
It was as enjoyable as the first 2. I was kind of hoping there would be a 4th
A Darkness at the Door (Book 3)
Not faerie related but it involves time travel which is kind of the same thing :)
Into the Dim
1
An Arthurian trilogy…and Arthur…that's about faeries!
Call of the King: Arthurian Fantasy Book 1
Fantastic series, very well written and very well read.
The Queen's Thief
Another well read enjoyable series and this one also has mysteries.
The Glass Library
Another time travel book
A Rip Through Time: Novel (Rip Through Time 1)
I can't begin to tell you how much I love this series. It's funny, always has a mystery, is well read (and the narrator pronounces French names properly), and it's whimsical.
The Accidental Alchemist (Mystery, 1)
An enjoyable stand alone
Wishtress
A great series, especially the first three
The False Prince (The Ascendance Series, Book 1)
A superb series which is very well read.
The Tournament at Gorlan (Ranger's Apprentice)
In this series, I learned what a chimera was. Never knew before.
Going Wild
1
An interesting series which I - and my sons - enjoyed.
Copernicus Legacy
I loved this series, it's all mysteries and intrigue
The Blackthorn Key
Another fun time travel adventure
Glitch: A Time-Travel Adventure for Kids
Another fun YA series
Seven Wonders
This series was 180 degrees outside what I prefer to read. Come on vampires are NOT my thing. This book was so well read and entertaining…by the time I realize there were vampires, it was irrelevent. :)
Stoker and Holmes
Another kid series which was quite fun
Thieves of Shadow
A delightful series full of twists and turns
Akarnae (Medoran Chronicles Book 1)
Read by Brittany Presley, I just love her
The selection
A fun YA series. My boys loved it
Airborn: A Printz Honor Winner
I was surprised by this one, it was really enjoyable and feel good
