Need More Books...


The Mortal Instruments Series by Cassandra Clare(City of Bones, City of Ashes and City of Glass) is good, though I've only read the first. The Chronicles of Chrestomanci (a series) and Howl's Moving Castle are also some of my favorites. :)
Oh, and Scott Westerfeld's Uglies series (Uglies, Pretties, Specials, Extras).
I'm sure there are others, but those are the ones I can think of at the moment.
Teenage girl, judging by your other books-i would strongly recomend Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr
Most people love it, some people hate it.
Give it a go!
Its a lot like some of the books you have listed-put together!

You could also try "Life as We Knew It". An asteroid hits the moon and moves it closer to the earth, and it causes all sorts of natural disasters and chaos and all that fun stuff. ;) Some parts drag a bit, but it's still an interesting read.
"A Mango-Shaped Space" was very good, from what I remember. It's about a girl with synesthesia, which basically means that she sees sounds.
I'll post more if I think of any. :)
Also, what books do you not like? Are there any genres/types of books that you just can't stand? (very important things to know for book recommendations ;) )

The Song of the Lioness Quartet
The Lord of the Rings
Terrier
The Amulet of Samarkand
Wuthering Heights (had to add it becuase it's my favorite book)
Fruits Basket, Volume 1 (it's a Japanese manga, and completely adorable)
The Demon King
The Warrior Heir

you're tastes seem to be similar to mine! i love the clique books,Gossip girl is okay, Private was pretty cool, and my 3 all-time fave series' are the Hunger Games, Percy Jackson, and Harry Potter.
my recommendations (you may love some of these, you may hate them, but give 'em a try):
the Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare
The It Girl books by Cecily von Ziegesar (I haven't started 'em yet, but i've heard they're good, and if you liked Gossip Girl a lot, you'll like these)
any of Ally Carter's books.
and some others, but my brain isn't working right now. hahaa

The Goose Girl (The Books of Bayern, #1) , Ella Enchanted, The Two Princesses of Bamarre,
(Faantasy-ish)
Fablehaven (Fablehaven, #1), Into the Land of the Unicorns (Unicorn Chronicles, #1)The Silver Crown, Peter and the Starcatchers (Peter and the Starcatchers, #1), Eragon and Cycle, The Journal of Curious Letters (The 13th Reality, #1), Artemis Fowl, Hunger Games!!
(The first 3 are pretty classic but the others are good too)
A Little Princess, Rose in Bloom (but you should probably read the first book Eight Cousins first), The Voyage of Patience Goodspeed, Calico Captive...
All are super faves of mine!!!

Thats the same guy who did the Artemis Fowl searies.
i would suggest "the last knight" by hilari bell, "fruits basket" by natsume takaya, "life as we knew it" i cant remember the authers name.


LoTR are awesome. They basically defined the fantasy genre...

i have seen the same thing as bookprincess

I've only seen the second one once, though...it was a little dark, so my family didn't buy it.
Did you know that J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S Lewis were good friends, but that Tolkien hated the Narnia books?

Because he didn't like allegory, which Narnia uses. :)
