The Ultimate Book Recommendation List

[Edaer-Itof]

This is such a great list. (:

So, i'm looking for a book and I don't know where to start ! If anyone has anything to tell me about I'd really appreciate it, I'm totally desperate.  I'm in post-book depression, ya know ?

Well, anyway, i think that the mythical boyfriend thing is getting kinda old, but anything else you have I'd love to hear about ! (especially sci-fi, i'm a sucker for it, dude ;D )

Fariequeen- I will eventually read the Secret Cirlce books so thanks for the recommendation.

Edaer-Itof- I don't read a lot of sci-fi but some ones that come to mind that could be somewhat associated with that category are Incarceron and  Hunger Games Trilogy Boxed Set. Both of these are set in the future and are great reads.

If you like something more fantasy with knights and great battles for kingdoms I would say dive into to Tortall series by Tamora Pierce. Here is the order

Alanna  In the Hand of the Goddess (Song of the Lionness Series #2)  The Woman Who Rides Like a Man (Song of the Lioness Series #3)  Lioness Rampant (Song of the Lioness Series #4)  Wild Magic (The Immortals Series #1)  Wolf-Speaker (The Immortals Series #2)  Emperor Mage (The Immortals Series #3)  Realms of the Gods (The Immortals Series #4)  First Test (Protector of the Small Series #1)  Page (Protector of the Small Series #2)  Squire (Protector of the Small Series #3)  Lady Knight (Protector of the Small Series #4)  Trickster's Choice (Daughters of the Lioness Series #1)  Trickster's Queen (Daughters of the Lioness Series #2)  

Some nonparanormal reads that I would have to recommend (since you don't like the mysterious vampire/werewolf/ supernatural being romance thing) are

Forget You  Megan Meade's Guide to the McGowan Boys  The Truth about Forever  This Lullaby  Along for the Ride  Someone Like You  Dreamland  Lock and Key  Keeping the Moon  Just Listen    

I hope you find something in there that you like.

This is such a great List!! there are so many of my favorite books on here, but one i'd add is:

East by Edith Pattou

It's a beautifully re-written fairytale

Thanks!!

[Lexa555]

East  

thanks for adding a book to the list

[RockyWhoreEr]

The Enemy  I doubt I saw this on the list. Adult zombies take over England, while kids group up to survive. Great first book in a new trilogy

[RockyWhoreEr]

And I would hate myself if I forgot to mention...the Bloodline series by Kate Cary. Amazing, fantastic twist on the Dracula story. Any person I've recommended it to has loved it. I just wish the author would write a third book, but I read on her page somewhere she won't do it because her books didn't sell well here in America. Anyways, one of the greatest series I've ever read. These are definitely in my top 10 favorite books.

Bloodline

  

Reckoning

  

[Lexa555]

Thank you for adding some books we didn't already have on the list.

[randomlybree]

This is a pretty great list!

The Midnighters Trilogy and Uglies series (both by Scott Westerfeld) are really awesome books. their very intense and creative, with original ideas. I also like Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy by Ally Carter. It's kind of cute and silly, and very girly.The ultimate teenage girl series has to be the Confessions of Georgia Nicholson by Louise Rennison. It is a hilarious series about a British teenage girl and her exploits relating to love, school, and friendship. It is a must read for teen girls who love comedy and realistic stories.

[Lexa555]

Thanks for adding those books to the list.

Have a couple more myself to add:

God is in the Pancakes - Robin Epstein

Whisper - Phoebe Kitanidis

Sea - Heidi R. Kling

God Is in the Pancakes 

Whisper

The main list is on the bottom of page 5 and continues on to the top of page 6. most of those books are on the list but I don't think the Secrets of my Hollywood Life were on there. Also since Forget You is newer it's not on there yet. although I recently read it and really liked it.

[Edaer-Itof]

thank youu, you gave me a lot of ideas ! i was thinking about reading that Dreamland book, and you reminded me, thats probly what i'll doo (:

[----SOBBY_love…]

NICK & NORAHHHHHH!!!!!

AND THE CONFESSIONS OF GEORGIA NICHOLSON! and i hate realistic fiction. well not hate, just dislike. Theyre comedy/love stories well yea. and theyre soooooo much better then the movies!!!!! (georgia= Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging) oh and Inkheart by cornelia Funke. It might be a childrens book but I have read it like 5 times since i was 8!!!!! Inkheart was also a somewhat known movie (but it wasnt that good) and its a trilogy but i personally dont like the 2nd and 3rd.

I noticed that no one had listed Jodi Piccoult's books. I must say that her books are some of the best I have ever read.

First I recommend My Sister's Keeper. If you saw the movie, then ending sucked. The book was so much better than the movie.

Then there is Handle with Care, also an excellent book.

So here are her books:

My Sister's Keeper

Handle Withe Care

Nineteen Minutes

The Pact

Harvesting the Heart

Keeping Faith

The Tenth Circle

those are all I can think of right now, and I read all of them besides the last one.

They were excellent, you should definitely try them
