It's October! Bree from The Magic Attic and I have decided to host giveaways all through this month, and you can join us! The 'Once Upon a Blog Hop' will feature four weeks, and four genres. Each week, we'll giveaway a set of books on our blogs, and discuss reads within that genre. The titles will depend on the genre of that week.

Week one, which will last from October 3-9 is reserved for things in the Fantasy genre (paranormal, urban fantasy, supernatural, etc included). Week two, which lasts from October 10-16 is Steampunk week. Week three, which lasts from October 17-23, is for Contemporary, and Week four, which is October 24-30, is a week for Dystopia.

This week, week one, is for books in the fantasy genre. 

So what are some of your favorite books within the fantasy genre? Series?

What are some exciting upcoming titles in the fantasy genre? 

What are some titles within this genre that you love, and doesn't get nearly as much attention as it deserves?

Books in the fantasy genre that you want to read, but never get around to reading?

Share them with us! Write a blog post/Facebook post/Goodreads note/etc sharing some of your favorite/most highly anticipating titles within the fantasy genre, and attach our Once Upon a Blog Hop Week One: Fantasy banner to it. Leave a link below in the comments anytime during this week to share it with your fellow bookworms :)

I'm totally late for posting this, but here are my answers:

So what are some of your favorite books within the fantasy genre? Series?

LALALALA. I could go on and on about this because I LOVE fantasy. That's my main genre, man. But, I will give a few of my faves: Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead, Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare, Nightshade series by Andrea Cremer, Caster Chronicles by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl, Hush, Hush series by Becca Fitzpatrick. Oh god there's so many more. I'd also like to highlight that I absolutely ADORED Witchlanders by Lena Coakley, and the first book in Heather Brewer's new series, First Kill.

What are some exciting upcoming titles in the fantasy genre? 

I'm sooo excited for Silence by Becca Fitzpatrick which comes out on the fourth of this month. Also, Beautiful Chaos by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl which comes out the 18th of this month. Another one I'm reallly looking forward to is Incarnate by Jodi Meadows. The Calling by Kelley Armstrong, that's definitely another one. City of Lost souls by Cassandra Clare. The Golden Lily by Richelle Mead. TONS!

What are some titles within this genre that you love, and doesn't get nearly as much attention as it deserves?

Oh gosh. There are a ton, actually. A lot of books receive a whole lot of attention on blogs but out in the real world of high school and whatnot, they don't get nearly enough. Nightshade series by Andrea Cremer. Paranormalcy series by Kiersten White. Raised by Wolves by Jennifer Lynn Barnes. Angelfire series by Courtney Allison Moulton. There are also a bunch of indie books that deserve much more attention.

Books in the fantasy genre that you want to read, but never get around to reading?

Once again, TONS! Jeeze Bree, these questions are tough! The Soul Screamers series by Rachel Vincent. Descended by Blood by Angeline Kace. A bunch of new releases as well.

Well, those are my answers. What about yours? If you did a post, make sure to leave the link so that me and the other participants can take a gander!
