Ummmm! I'm excited about this contest! I think the best book I have ever read would be Acheron by Sherrilyn Kenyon. The Twilight Series really got me started in this genre of books and I love em. Thanks Carla!

Decisions, decisions....

Well, "Guards! Guards!" is my favorite Terry Pratchett's Discworld book, but "Jeeves in the Morning" is the best of the P. G. Wodehouse Jeeves stories. I just can't decide between the two.

Best book I ever read. Hmmm....I read a lot of good books but to pick the best. I would have to say it's a toss between Acheron by Sherrilyn Kenyon and Lover Mine by JR Ward. These are two books I read once and the read them again right after I finished them.
Congrats on 250+ followers.

Thanks so much for the giveaway & congratulations to you!! :-)
Because I LOVE so many of the of the PNR books I've read to narrow it down to one, I'm going with a non-PNR book: "Water for Elephants" by Sara Gruen

Another great contest & great prizes. Those bags are so cute. I think the best book I ever read would be Obsidian Butterfly by Laurell K Hamilton but a close second would go to the Fever Series by Karen Marie Moning.

Thank you for your hard work on this blog.

My favorite genre is Urban Fantasy - but my favorite book is so far from that. :)

Outlander by Diana Gabaldon is my all time favorite. That whole series is amazing.

Danielle West said...

I have read almost all of the books mentioned by the previous commenters... but I am just drawing a blank. I just... can't pick a "best". I fall in love with a new book so often that I simply cannot put one over the other. Divine by Mistake got me started on adult romance and will always have the most special place in my heart. Thanks for the giveaway!

Fortunately I have read many best books. It's hard to choose but a recent one is the Fever series by Karen Marie Moning. The series introduced me to the UF genre and now I'm hooked.

Amy said...

Best book I've ever read is too hard, but I'll say that Kiss of Snow by Nalini Singh is one of the best books I've read this year. In fact, she is one of my favorite authors ever and I love both of her series.

Megan@Riverina Romantics said...

Amiee Snow said...

The best book I ever read was Hard bitten by Chloe Neill even though some people wouldn't agree with me i love what she has done with the series and i look forward to Drink Deep in november
Ethan Sullivan is one of my favorite characters especially when you see his true feelings for merit at the end :)

Thanks. Amiee

practimom said...

jeez, this is the hardest question ever, Carla! I think i will have to go with Bluesun1218. Zsadist holds a special place in my heart. followed closely by Tegan in Lara Adrian's Midnight Breed.

Cath said...

The best book I've ever read would have to be The Neverending story by Michael Ende when I was a kid.
It really opened my mind to the possibility that absolutely ANYTHING can happen whether real or fantasy. I still have it on my bookshelf and pick it up from time to time. Atreyu was my first book hero crush (not counting Aslan the lion!!)

Trish said...

Hmmmm... I am not sure I can pick just one. I like the Heku series, The Big Bad Wolf series, and I like the Stephanie Plum series. Along with many others. Sorry!!

Bakerette said...

I've enjoyed many books but I guess if I have to choose a best would have to be Black Dagger Brotherhood by JR Ward.
Love the bag! So cute.

donnas said...

Wow. Really not an easy one to answer. I really have so many favorites that narrowing it down to one overall is hard. I think I will go with Deeper Than Midnight.

greywitch said...

ARRRG hardest question to answer ever....

Anything by Neil Gaiman, Nalini Singh, Patrick Rothfuss

Though I'll give it to the book that got me into fantasy etc. Operation Chaos by Poul Anderson

Amiee Snow said...

The best book I've read is Chloe Neill's "Hard Bitten" even though some people wouldn't agree with me I love what she has done with the series and can't wait to read "Drink Deep" in November. would really like to win this contest! Thanks Carla!

SdyLion said...

This is a toughie...ACHERON from Sherrilyn Kenyon comes to mine and so does SHADOWFEVER from Karen Marie Monning. It is definitely a tie. KMM is iepic with her entire series and how it roles and flows so overall she coomands the most amazing vision with that final novel but ACHERON's book shakes you to the core. Thanks for the giveaway!

The best book I've ever read was Elantris by Brandon Sanderson. It was SO good I wrote him immediately on finishing the book to tell him how much i loved it.

I've yet to read the Mistborn series; heard it's good too.
