Best Paranormal Romance: YA



 Please note, this is a "just for fun" post.  This isn't a definitive list, it's just something I came across on the internet, and I thought it would make a good discussion starter.
This is not my list.
This is not a vetted list.
This is just somebody's list, and I'm curious to know what yours are.
So take a look, and tell me what you think.  Do you agree?  Disagree?
What needs to be added, and what should definitely be taken off?

  1. I'd add the House of the Night series by P.C. and Kristin Cast. It's very good.

  2. In what universe is Rampant by Diana Peterfreund paranormal romance? It should definitely be on a "greatest ... book" list, but not PNR.

    As the way I see it, PNR usually features a couple with a HEA and some paranormal troubles thrown in.

    There are some great books in this list though.

  3. I agree that Rampant is not PNR. Neither is The Hunger Games. Good books though.

    Personally? Not a fan of HoN or Twilight.

  4. There are a lot on this list that I wouldn't consider paranormal...just fantasy, dystopia, and/or sci-fi...oh well. And Strange Angels doesn't have any romance in it...I guess there is a hint of maybe something in the future. But after reading two books not much has happened in the romance department. And I couldn't even get through the first 100 pages of Jessica's Guide...

    Good list, though. I want to add more of these to my already encumbered list.
