Tell Me Something Tuesday :)

So, since I think this lovely author, who wrote BEFORE & MASQUERADE has one of the coolest websites, she is always posting something fun and I decided to join her today in this fun!  Here’s the description from Ms. Cambria Hebert from her blog…

Welcome to my weekly meme Tell Me Something Tuesday where I ask you something and you tell me the answer!! Its as simple as that and I thought it would be a great way for all of us bloggers to get to know one another! So this is how it works: I post a question here on my blog and then i give my answer. I invite all the bloggers to take the question and post it on their blog with their answer and we can hop around and see what everyone says! If you are a blogger don’t forget to leave your link at the bottom of this post! If you aren’t a blogger – that’s okay too!! Leave your answer in the comments section!

 Tell Me Something:

What is your favorite genre to read and why?

So, my I answer to this would be Fantasy (which does include some Urban fantasy-I still dunno why they have this genre)… Lemme explain.  I like some paranormal, but I am not usually into the romance part.  I am well know for skipping over those “lovely” moments… I read the dialog and then continue on until the plot starts again.  I prefer fantasy, because it’s paranormal without the romance….. I like when people die-usually horribly, like by sword, or a magic ball, or curse, or bow & arrow, or vampire fight, and a werewolf pouncing on you & mushing you to nothing… yes, I know I am strange. However, I do read some paranormal with the romance because the plot is really good. I make this exception. & Yes, some of my #1 authors & series are in this category…. No, Sookie Stackhouse  & Anita Blake are still FANTASY people, no matter what you think. & yes, sometimes they have some romance, but ask the authors what they put their book in, it’s not gunna be a romance category. Now I am not saying I don’t want some hot man candy in the books, I just don’t think they should be throwing their clothes off and getting it on the floor in the middle of a crisis… you know, like, hey there is this big bad moster out to kill me, we should move somewhere safe, let’s get outa here–after we canoodle, ya know-LOL… Now, enough of that… I work at a used book store and it’s a crazy subject for me, but I am low on the totem pole, so they get to put these books anywhere they want to LOL However, I have read Ms. Ward’s Black Daggar Brotherhood, THIS is paranormal romance, she is a perfect example of paranormal romance… I rate them mid way in NEED TO READ pile. I will read them, but will I be in line needing it the first moment they are released, probably not… You wanna talk about Harry Dresden, Anita Black, Sookie Stackhouse, Jane Yellowrock, Kara Gillian, Sabina Kane, JoAnne Walker,  Kitty Norville, Jace Valchek, Angel Crawford, Thorn St. Croix, Gin Blanco, Gwen Frost, Shiarra Waynest, Cassie Palmer, Dori Bassarb, Atticus O’Sullivan, Mercy Thompson, October Daye, & there are so many more… but these are more Fantasy than romance, & I WILL wait in line for these… *sigh* I could go on about this subject, but needless to say, I have just listed most of my favorite characters that are lead in a series, so I’m pretty sure I just gave away all those names for you to check out… LOL…. now… I told you about my strange obsession with people dying oddly in books, and I also love a good mystery as part of the plot… somebody is always out to get somebody else… how do we stop this, and who is it gunna turn out to be!  Now, I will shut up & let you list yours hahahaha oh boy, all my romance reading friends are gunna tar & feather me 🙂
