General Discussion

The Orphan Master's Son by Adam Johnson. I had to read it for one of my Asian Studies: TEFL classes in college and I got really into it

[quote name="eyesofdawn" date="2024-04-12 09:51:19" ] [quote name="@Littlelion420" date="2024-04-12 07:49:53" ] For book series mine would be pretty much all of Neal shustermans series like The scythe, everlost and unwind. I love dystopian novels. [/quote] 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 [/quote] 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! @eyesofdawn

loved the Hunger Games.

currently reading Girl in Pieces, hits kind of close to home.

[quote name="MilkshakeTrex" date="2024-04-12 20:44:52" ] I absolutely love The Island by Natasha Preston, Four found dead by Natalie D. Richards, and How to Survive Your Murder by Danielle Valentine. [/quote] 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

Warrior Cats, I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream, Blood Meridian, Wings of Fire, Amulet, a lot more!

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)

The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert and Autonomous by Annalee Newitz live in my soul forever

Go Tell It On The Mountain by James Baldwin; Blood Meridian by Cormac Mccarthy; Interview With The Vampire by Anne Rice (just the first book in the series-- I couldn't get into the rest); and currently I am making my way through GRRM's A Song Of Ice and Fire and enjoying all of those books very much.

Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is on my to be read list.

I'm not as much of a book reader as I used to be bc I find it difficult to focus reading a page now BUT my favs are: - wings of fire (I love the darkstalker book in particular,,,) - Percy Jackson used to be a huge warrior cat fan but its not really my favorite anymore currently reading watership down. I really love it but idk when I'm gonna finish it [emoji=skull size=1]
