Morganville Vampire Series or The Weather Warden Series by Rachel Caine.

I've read all the books you've listed and honestly, I can't think of anything else to add lol.



If you're up for a classic, you should definitely read The Three Musketeers or The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas. Based on the long list of books you've read, I can tell you that I have you'll love them, no doubt. They happen to be long, but trust me they are not boring at all! Both plots are extremely suspenseful , exciting, and full of action, adventure... I personally loved them both. I suggest you give them a try.



Enjoy =)

Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr

Definately read Blood and Chocolate. It is very short but amazing. I reread it at least once a year. And try Firebird by Mercedes Lackey. I'm rereading it right now and it is really good. Here are some more:

Rebel Angels

The Sweet Far Thing



Tithe by Holly Black

Valiant

The Secret History of the Pink Carnation Series by Lauren Willig

-The Secret History of the Pink Carnation

-The Masque of the Black Tulip

-The Deception of the Emerald Ring

-The Seduction of the Crimson Rose

-The Temptation of the Night Jasmine



Those are my favorites, they're all in that same magic/fantasy/adventure genre you seem to like.
Awesome! You've read The Naming, I hope you are going to read The Riddle.



Anyways, I don't think these books are similar to most of the books you've read but they do involve training, warrior/fighter. I have read them all by the way.





Warriors* (Original) by Erin Hunter



Cats who live in the forest where they have clan systems which includes a leader, deputy, medicine cat, apprentices, queens, elders and of course warriors. It sort of sound boring and stupid, but trust me it's not. The plot is awesome and characters are amazing. Start at the very first book : Into the Wild



* There is also:



Warriors: The New Prophecy

Warriors: The Power of Three



These series each have 6 books in each.^^^^







Pendragon by D.J. MacHale



Bobby, nice guy, basketball star and a Traveler. Which means that he has to jump from territories to territories to prevent a evil person from ruling the Hala. No big deal, right?
