A few years ago I decided to see what a new-to-me genre was all about: paranormal romance. I was curious how those books differed from urban fantasy. So I started out with anthologies to get an idea of what authors in that genre were good. Anthologies were great for that. I think my first exposure to good paranormal romance was in the anthology Bite, which introduced me to Laurell K. Hamilton, Charlaine Harris, MaryJanice Davidson, etc for the first time.
