I’m already following you on twitter (I’m theperfectlady) And I’m subscribed to your blog via wordpress.
Anyway, I absolutely love Lord of the Rings. And C. S. Lewis, especially his works for older readers.
But something more recent? I reviewed Poison Study by Maria Shriver. http://thegingerbreadninja.wordpress.com/2009/04/02/poison-study/ It was a good book.
I have put a link to this contest on the sidebar of my blog (http://molcotw.blogspot.com)

Favorite book thus far is The Forest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan. Couldn’t put it down to do anything else.
I guess a recent favorite fantasy type book has been Wings.

1) My favorite fantasy book would have to be City of Bones by Cassandra Clare, it’s more of an urban fantasy though — I absolutely love it because it’s super exciting and kept me on the edge of my seat. Also all my supernatural faves were in it, such as vampires, werewolves, warlock, etc.
2. I added it on my blog giveaway sidebar…does that still count as blogging Sheila? http://lafemmereaders.blogspot.com/

Cool giveaway Sheila, the book sounds amazing and the cover is beautiful…

I’m going to say that Robin McKinley’s The Blue Sword is my favorite fantasy. That’s not a real answer, though, because fantasy is one of my favorite genres, and I probably have about 50 favorites. Really.
This one looks intriguing…I’d love to be entered!

I must admit that I haven’t read a lot of “hard core” fantasy in many years, but I do really like the sweetly magical books of Sarah Addison Allen – and I’ll be posting a review of THE SUGAR QUEEN soon.
I’d love to read this book – I’m looking to be enchanted these days! Thanks for the chance to win.
