i love reading. i'm 17

i read everything from old British classics to contemporary paperbacks to sci-fi and thriller to romance to satires and governments and history.

so, i absolutely am CRAVING an amazingly good book right now.

one that i cannot put down.

one that i'd want to pull an all nighter for.

please and thank you.

(ps, i'm just seriously NOT in the mood for old classics right now as i'm in the middle of Madame Bovary and am considering burning it to ashes)

thank you.

  1. oh my gosh, your me!

    lol, i read everything. i love old literature, and read contemporary dramas and real intense modern books and intense old books and sci fis and fantasies and romances and whatever! i just like reading in general.  but yeah, i know exactly what you mean when you need a break for just, what i call, and 'easy read' where your brain can rest and the plot of the book will just take you along all by itself.  so yeah. if you havent read it already, try...

    The Host - Stephenie Meyer.  yea, if youve read Twilight then youd know its the same author, this one is a sci fi, but it kept me up all night and really just envelopes you into the story.  try it.  also im still in love with Holly Black from Valiant and Tithe and Ironside, those are faerie books but who cares!  

    Also, one of my new favorite authors is Julie Hearn, i've read The Minister's Daughter and Ivy, and theyre both so fantastic (especially the former), but theyre set in like the 1700s, so yeah.

    good luck!


  2. Twilight.

    New moon.

    eclipse.

    && breaking down

  3. Have you read:

    Angela's Anshes

    Catcher in the Rye

    A Tree Grows in Brookyln

    The DaVinci Code (Big all-nighter)

    Empire Rising (Look it up, see if you like it)

    Brave New World

    Anything George Orwell, but "Down and Out in Paris and London" is very good, and not very well-known as far as Orwell books go.

    Also, the book "Freddy and Fredericka" is hilarious. It's about the Prince and Princess of Wales going to America, where nobody really has any idea who they are. It's really just a great book, probably one of the funniest I've ever read. You can look it up if you like.

    Those are all the things on my bookshelf (Excluding old books like The Brothers Karamazov and Oliver Twist, because you said you REALLY didn't feel like that stuff right now)

  4. twilight by stephenie meyer is a great series for that but if you want another suggestion i would reccommend reading the house of night series by p.c. cast and kristen cast the books in it are marked betrayed and choosen and a fourth book is coming soon  

  5. Twilight

  6. Try "Luna" by Julie Anne Peters. I'm not sure if you're comfortable reading about the sister of a transgendered male, but it's a rather addictive book that mixes stone cold seriousness with comedy wonderfully! Here's a plot synopsis:

    "The novel is told from the point of view of fifteen-year-old Regan. She struggles with the secret that her older brother, Liam, is a transsexual, who wants to transition and live as a girl named Luna. (Liam adopts the name "Luna" for her female self, choosing the name because Luna, which means "moon," reflects the fact she can only show herself as a girl at night.) Regan helps Luna dress as a girl in secret, but panics when she announces her plans to become Luna full-time. Regan dreads what her parents will think, and how society will accept Luna. Furthermore, Regan's own romantic life is put in danger when she is forced to constantly look out for her sister. Although she wishes to have a "normal" sibling, she knows that she is Luna's only hope for happiness."

  7. twilight.  trust me.  twilight

  8. The Davinci Code (the book is so much better than the movie) and Angels and Demons are both by Dan Brown. They both move at a very fast pace and keep you guessing till the very end.

  9. The Blind Assassin - Margaret Atwood

    It's an amazing novel and I think you will really enjoy it. Margaret Atwood writes the kind of novels that you can't stop reading.

    Synopsis: http://www.waterstones.com/waterstoneswe...

  10. The Heirs of Hammerfall, by Marion Zimmer Bradley.  Part of a series of novels called the Darkover series, but are easy to read standalone.

  11. Hm...

    I have a lot of books that were amazingly wonderful, so I will list a few. Maybe one strikes your fancy...

       Cornelia Funke

    -Inkheart and Inkspell

    -The Theif Lord
