 This weeks Post was supposed to be along the lines of must-read titles that other people have told me about. Because I haven’t yet read many of the titles that made that list (and therefore can’t personally vouch for their awesomeness) I decided to take a spin on the topic and present my own list of must-reads. I realize this must look similar to many of my other lists, but I just can’t can’t seem to stop raving about my all-time favorite titles. Now, of course, this list is only helpful if you’re a speculative fiction fanatic like me. ;)

Niki’s Top Twelve Must-Read Books:

Fantasy:

The Name the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss

Assassin’s Apprentice by Robin Hobb

The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson

 Science Fiction (specifically Space Opera):

Grimspace by Ann Aguirre

Leviathan Wakes by James S. A. Corey

Survival by Julie E. Czerneda

Young Adult:

The Girl of Fire and Thorns by Rae Carson

Partials by Dan Wells

Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead

 Urban Fantasy:

Moon Called by Patricia Briggs

Full Moon Rising by Keri Arthur

Dead Witch Walking by Kim Harrison

These titles have all earned their spots in my favorites list and are usually the first books I recommend to new readers of their given genre.
