What I read
Another reader question by request--What books do I read?
My favorite fantasy author is Jim Butcher (The Dresden Files). If you haven't read any of these, do it, you won't regret it.
Here's a list of some of my other favorite books/authors:
C.E. Murphy (Urban Shaman, Thunderbird Falls, Coyote Dreams)
Linnea Sinclair (Gabriel's Ghost, Finders Keepers, Games of Command)
Rob Thurman (Nightlife, Moonshine)
Laura Anne Gilman (her Retrievers series)
Ilona Andrews (Magic Bites)
Scott Lynch (The Lies of Locke Lamora)
Shanna Swendson (her Katie Chandler series)
Janet Evanovich (Stephanie Plum books)
Rex Stout (Nero Wolfe books)
Margaret Maron (Deborah Knott books)
Laurell Hamilton (the early Anita Blake books)
Rachel Caine (her Weather Warden series)
That's my off-the-top-of-my-head list. There are others, I just can't think of them on only one cup of coffee on a Monday morning. ; ) I'm always looking for new books to read. Does anyone have any suggestions of books/authors that you think I'd enjoy?

Good list!
Hey, Lisa, if you're username is a link, people can pop to your blog whenever they see your comment on anyone else's blog. Just FYI. ;)
Thanks for the reminder! I'll take care of it.
Hi Lisa, I picked up MLTF randomly a few weeks ago and loved it. I read the whole thing in one sitting. Anyway, book recommendations. For traditional fantasy: Anything Anne Bishop. Both her trilogies are absolutely awe inspiring. For more Urban Fantasy/ Paranormal romance: Candace Havens Charmed & books. They're written diary style and lots of fun. Also, Patricia Briggs, Moon Called. Happy reading! And for the record, I agree, only the early Anita books. :)
Kaylee, thank you so much for the compliment and the book suggestions! Anne Sowards (my editor) is also Patricia Briggs' editor, and I've been meaning to read her books. They're officially on my TBR list.
I'm so glad you loved MLTF!
