Listed below are RT's "Best Book" nominees in categories related to paranormal romance, urban fantasy, and classic fantasy. If the book title is a pink-link, you can click on it to go to my review, which will include an overview of the world-building, an analysis of the plot, and a critique of the quality of the writing, as well as a link to an excerpt, a link to the author's web site, and a link to the book's Amazon.com page. If the book is part of a series, my review will also include a list of all of the other books in reading order and reviews of previous books in the series.
In one or two instances, I completely disagree with the RT editors on the quality of the novel, so your pink-link click will take you to a review of the series and a publisher's blurb for that specific book.
