Alternate Reality
Originally three lists, we’ve combined them all into one list, subdivided by type of Alternative Reality For romances outside the ordinary, from Aliens to Witches, this is the place to find them We’ve done something a little different with list, since so many Alternate Reality books are part of a series, we’ve tried to list all of the books in the series but can’t guarantee the quality of all of them If you notice a book that may be in the wrong catagory please let us know, while we’ve tried to get them all in the right place, we may have missed a few
