Thanks Jen!

I've pretty much only read two UF series, but I have plenty on my tbr list.

My fave so far is definitely the Kate Daniels series

Kate Daniels. I love those books. And of course Fever series. Downside Ghosts series by Stacia Kane are really good too.

I have downside ghosts, kate daniels and fever series all on my tbr list

I'm really loving the elemental assassin series and succubus series is sort of paranormal romance meets urban fantasy

I assume when you say succubus series you are talking about the one by Richelle Mead? I would category that more of UF. In my mind PR are the ones where romance is the big plot like Kresley Cole's Immortals After Dark and Gena Showalter Lords of the Underworld.

I know Jen isn't a big fan of this series but Richelle Mead's Dark Swan series is really good too.

I enjoy the Cal Leandros series by Rob(yn) Thurman.

I also read Hounded by Kevin Hearne, which was all right.

I'd say my favorite is Chloe Neill's Chigacoland series.

I definately have Chicagoland, Kate Daniels, Downside Ghosts, and Fever all on my to read list.

Has anyone read Amber Benson's books? I've only read the first one and part of the second one but they're pretty good, a little fluffy but I llike some of the world building.
