Hello! I just finished the Sookie Stackhouse books and picked up a few new paranormal romance and urban fantasy books from my neighborhood used bookstore but after reading a few pages of three of them I just threw them to the ground.
My reason was the bitchy/angry un-compromising female leads. (Yep, one of the books I picked up was an Anita Blake so I expected that from that series) but I was surprised that the other books I picked up seemed to be following suit. I'm just not in the mood for a annoyingly bitchy lead and would rather read something more fun. (I've finished all the Jim Butcher books so can't switch to a sarcastic Harry Dresdin to pass the time
I'm not able to go browse the aisles being that the closest real bookstore is 35 minutes away and I will have my two young children in tow...so I want to go with an idea of what/who to be looking out for when I get there.
I would really appreciate any ideas for a good urban paranormal or paranormal romance with less bitch and more fun.
Thanks so much!
