I’m glad you enjoy this genre!Cathy Burgin wrote: ↑03 Jul 2023, 16:21 I’m so glad you chose this genre! Since I am new to this process, I have a question. Is it appropriate to suggest a book in a series?
Yes, you can absolutely recommend a book in a series! Since this is a more relaxed discussion, any recommendations work.
I would love to find a new fantasy series!

Paranormal series
Kate Connor is a “ Level Five Demon Hunter with Forza Scura, a secret arm of the Vatican tasked with taking out demons and other nasties.”
She thought she was retired and living a typical suburban soccer mom life until she sees a demon at the supermarket and her previous life comes back with a bang.
While this book is targeted for moms, anyone who enjoys a paranormal story with a bit of strange humor mixed in will enjoy this book.

Hi everyone! I hope you love this genre as I much loved it:D I have a lot of books I read including Fantasy and I would like to recommend or even love to recommend
So, the first one I'd like to recommend is Paws for Thought by Shirley Day. To be honest, I receive this book as one of the ARCs I joined and this book didn't fail me. It was really a fun read with a mix of fantasy so I guess you already knew what the genre of this book which is Fantasy. The story is about twelve-year-old Jamie's world turns upside down when he discovers his grandad’s been reincarnated as a cat. Along the way, the duo begins to realize that true wealth is not so much about cold hard cash but the love and support of family and friends. I think children would enjoy reading this one but I guess young-adult will also like it too:) This book is not really popular but you can buy it on Amazon or you can buy it on your local library. I chose this books cause I guess there's a cat included and I really like cats:D

This sounds like a book perfect for me! It’s fantasy, demon hunting, and she’s a soccer mom? Sounds like a fun read. Count me in!Cathy Burgin wrote: ↑03 Jul 2023, 18:25 I recommend Carpe Demon by Julie Kenner.

Life lessons in books always make the stories more meaningful. No worries about missing the poll!
