Location: UK		Hi everyone. This new feature of reading levels has let me join you at last. Too many challenges last year,and looking at my reading list for this year,I see that almost none of the sub-genre Urban Fantasy , a firm favourite of mine, are even on the WWEnd website. However ,Badseed Girl has kindly offered to add some of my 2015 reads to the site,and so I can do a rather truncated version of the UF fantasy I am doing over on Shelfari.
I really enjoy the UF genre,a ''what if'' speculation. What if all those classic creatures,elves,vampires and werewolves were to be around in our modern society? Would we cope? Would they eat us,co-exist,or love us? Could they cope with our modern world? We get such a variety,from vampires sucking our blood,or weres chomping us.to peaceful/uneasy co-existence,to all out war.,or love between species.I think it is a really fun sub-genre,. I am firmly to the urban fantasy rather than the paranormal romance side,but all in all it is a genre that tends to be neglected here on shelfari. I hope in future fellow fans will work with me to make sure lots of great books are added to the site. For the moment,lets see how far I can get!
