Southern Vampire Series by Charlaine Harris

The Chicago Stars Books by Susan Elizabeth Phillips

Another favorite here at the library. Who can resist these books?? Some of the situations in the books are a little unbelievable, but the emotion the author conveys through the characters is so real, so relatable it is hard not to want to own them all. Everyone has their favorite but all the books have the ability to make you laugh and cry (or at least tear up, or think about tearing up if you're not a cryer). So please enjoy. They can be read in any order, but if you like order here they are.
