What's a good book to read?

Question

I am the pickiest person when it comes to books. I have read a few books that I absolutely loved but when I try to find another good one, I fall flat. I'm looking for something action/adventure, preferably fiction/fantasy. No mystery or romance, I can't stand them. I loved Eragon and Eldest from the Inheritance trilogy so if there is a book out there along those lines that I might like to read while I'm waiting for the third book. I have a small obsession with pirates and fell in love with the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. I've looked everywhere but I can't find any books that run along such a storyline with pirates. Most of them are biography's, autobiography's or a historical read. I loved the Lord of the Rings books as well. Maybe I just keep overlooking some great books so if anyone knows of any books like this that I might enjoy please share them with me.

Answer 8

These books have a lot of action,adventure, and fantasy. It is one of my favorite series and I, also am pretty picky about books. There is history too(set in the Victorian era),  but no pirates , there are some aspects that I guess you can say are similar to things related to pirates though. I really enjoyed them and I hope you will too.

The Gemma Doyle trilogy by Libba Bray are great books.

1st book- A Great and Terrible Beauty

2nd book- Rebel Angels

3rd book- The Sweet Far Thing

These books have a variety of different themes intertwined-fantasy,romance, and action.
