Hey, I have Graceling out from the library too! :D
Hmm, OK, let me think of some stuff that I've really enjoyed lately. (Looking backwards through my Goodreads read list.) The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater--YA-ish (older YA, I guess) fantasy with water horses! Ash by Malinda Lo--YA fantasy lesbian Cinderella retelling Far North by Marcel Theroux--frequently surprising and dark post-apoc Chime by Franny Billingsley--again, YA, with faeries! and... well, it's a hard-to-describe book Blood Red Road by Moira Young--more YA, this one also post-apocalyptic Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake--YA urban fantasy about ghost hunting Hex Hall series by Rachel Hawkins; Hex Hall, Demonglass, and the upcoming Spell Bound--YA fantasy with a boarding school for faeries, witches, and shapeshifters (and one vampire) Divergent by Veronica Roth--YA dystopia, frequently compared to the Hunger Games, but with a decidedly different universe, IMO
And uh... that's probably enough for now, I think? :D
