For book series mine would be pretty much all of Neal shustermans series like The scythe, everlost and unwind. I love dystopian novels.

YES. Neal Shusterman is sooooo good. I love all of his books!! ^^
Have you read Roxy? It's not really appropriate to discuss here, but it is my favorite book of all time. He's just that good.
My second favorite(s) are ALL the books by brandon sanderson, especially skyward!! he's a really good author too!! :3

I haven’t read roxy but I’ve been needing one of his books to read lately! You seem to have good taste, maybe I’ll check out Brandon Sanderson sometime if I get a chance!

I absolutely love The Island by Natasha Preston, Four found dead by Natalie D. Richards, and How to Survive Your Murder by Danielle Valentine.

I have read every single one of Natasha Preston's books and none of them disappoint. I go nuts over these books and can finish them in a single evening. Started with The Cellar when it was on Wattpad. When I found it in Barnes and Noble about a year later, literally lost my mind. Currently waiting for her two new books to come out this year.

Everytime someone asks about my favorite book I always immediately think of The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater, so I guess that it's my favorite <3 There's something so visceral about the writing, all your senses are engaged so that it all just feels like a real place and time. And it's about racing and bonding with man-eating kelpies so XD
I loved the first two Scythe books when I read them, like my whole worldview kinda shifted a little bit for awhile; I tried rereading the first one recently and it sadly doesn't have the same impact it did for that first reading. I also loved Fahrenheit 451, I read it at just the right time in my life when I was feeling almost like I was going crazy, and something about *Montag (don't know why I thought his name was Mortimer Lol) going through similar feelings really helped me feel better.
Dracula and Black Beauty are my two favorite classics <3 I also went through a long phase of collecting Louis L'Amour Western books, I just adored so many of them <3
I like... A lot of books lol

I remember reading Unwind in the 7th grade in school- It was very interesting although at the time I was about 12-13 years old, so definitely not that appropriate for that age I don't think, however It could just be me ^^' it was my reading class' book we all had to read. Everyone was in collective agreement that it was disturbing, and another classmate I recall opted out of the reading entirely and had to do separate works.
However, I adore ShadowHunters, ACOTAR, Warrior Cats, and Maximum Ride! Theres a lot of singles too I like, however I lean towards fantasy of course, with a tang of romance most times (ShadowHunters being my all time favorite)
