I've needed a thread like this forever Favorite books: (In order of favorite) 1) Kringle - Tony Abbott -Absolutely amazing book, my favorite about the legend of christmas, would recomment to any lovers of christmas or fantasy fiction 2)Harry Potter - JK Rowling -No description needed. Hands down most famous book series ever. 3)The Inheritance Cycle series - Christopher Paolini -Great series, recommend it for any fantasy lovers 4) The Book Thief - Markus Zusak -Tells the story of a girl in nazi germany, ends well. Favorite book out more serious types of books 5)Between Shades of Grey - Ruta Sepetys -Great non-fiction book about a lithuanian girl during world war 2, recommend only for mature readers since it gets a bit graphic, and tells war how it is. There's more but I can't remember off the top of my head. If anything read Kringle cause it's the best christmasy book I've ever read. Actually so much that I've read it ever christmas for the past 5 years.
Recently I read Sold by Patricia McCormick. It is a dark but enlightening story teaching about human trafficing and girls being sold into prostitution in the Middle East. I liked the book because it made me realize the horrors in modern day.
Great review and list Miner! I have also read Harry Potter, The Book Thief, and The Inheritance Cycle series! Great books! I will also look into the ones you suggested! Thanks so much! Honestly modern books are awesome, not only portraying images and views of this world, but we can learn from history and try to put a stop to things that are hurting the world. Thank you for such a great review! I am really interested now, I will be sure to check that book out! Thanks Jer! Hunger games today. Hunger games tomorrow. Hunger games forever. Preach preach! :3
Waht, that's weird. Yeah they're different, the author has a beard and looks like the guy from the Dos Equis commercials saying "Stay thirsty my friends"
In year 8 in English my class read this book called Private Peaceful. The book is based in one of the World Wars and is a story about 2 brothers. The eldest one went to war first and came back to marry the character Mollie that his younger brother fancied. As there was a gap they got married and she became pregnant. After that both of them went it to war and I'm not going to spoil the ending for you. It is a really good book and I do recommend it.
Wow sounds really interesting! I am definitely going to add that to my to-read book list! thank you! I am waiting for my two books from Rainbow Rowell called Fangirl and Elenor & Park. So excited to read them! I heard they are both great books! - A few more books I personally enjoyed/still enjoy: Harry Potter Narnia Series The Book Thief Wonder Divergent series Four (Vironica Roth, same author of divergent series) Dork Diaries :3 (haven't read it in forever but I would recommend it for younger girls)
idk if this counts because it's more of a series of comic strips, but I love Charles M. Schulz's Peanuts. I almost have the whole collectors series lol.
Awesome! I love Peanuts too! It's kinda a tradition whenever I go to my grandparents house, I always read peanuts because I don't have the paper at home so I always look forward to that!
Books... I read quite a lot of stuff, mostly boring stuff about programming but of course I also read books like the HG, Harry Potter, all the things. Quite like historic books as well (not the school/university ones but the interesting ones obviously).
AHH A REAL FANBOY HOW DO YOU DO? So nice to meet you, if you read HG and HP, you are officially part of the fandom community so I welcome you! I also like historical books not the boring ones of course but thanks so much for sharing your book favorites!
I am into the Cherub book series by Robert Muchamore. I am currently reading the first book in the second Cherub series- People Republic. The cherub books are fast paced and they are about teenagers under cover doing secret missions for the government. Brilliant series, if you like books like this I would definitely pick one up and read it!
Yeah, cherub is an amazing series. I also recommend the rangers apprentice by John Flanagan its a series of books to do with the protecters of the kingdom, every book is great and will make you want to read the next one! always action not sad books
Right now I'm reading the Enclave Series :3 It is an amazing book and I would recommend it to any Hunger Games, and Divergent lovers! I am currently on the third book Horde and it is amazing! I'm nearly finished the book, and I have loved it. Outpost is the second book and in my opinion is got a little slow, but not too bad ^=^. The author of these books is named, Ann Aguirre. Figured I would tell you incase anyone went looking for it :3. I have also loved the Arclight book! It only has two book so far and I just currently got the second book named, Meridian. I can't say anything about Meridian for I haven't read it, but Arclight was amazing! It was definitely a great book and I would recommend it :3. The author of these books is named, Josin L. Mcquein. Another book called, Saving CeeCee Honeycutt. I read this book a few years ago when I was younger and I just remember loving this book. It was a really sweet, delightful book, and I remember having a good laugh every now and then reading it :3. I would recommend this for mainly girls, but boys can give it a go if they please! The author of this book is, Beth Hoffman. Ok this is my last one :3. This book was just incredible. It's about 9/11, and is just... amazing. It's called, We All Fall Down. The author is, Eric Walters. It's really such a fascinating book and I highly recommend it. Happy Reading! :3
