I'm just about to start The Underworld ( Fallen Star series book 2) by Jessica Sorensen. I loved the first one, The Fallen Star, it was just so different from all the other paranormal books.

But if you have a good imagination and can brace for the strangeness, it's great. Imagine if the Wizard of Oz, Alice in Wonderland, and Jurassic Park were rolled into a single story.

I just didn't like that the story continues in another series. don't understand why there has to be 2

Is the other series good?

I love that series! I can't believe I have to wait until May for The One! What did you think of America in the second book? She kinda angered me a bit through most of it...

I didn't know either but in the last book it gives the first 1 or 2 chapters of the new series, I can't remember what it was called without looking
Having just devoured The Mortal Instruments and absolutely loved them, I'm reading The Infernal Devices by the same author. I'm also rereading The Mortal Instruments, currently City of Bones, because I read them too fast and I want to read them slowly this time.

I just finished The Infernal Devices!! Love all her books but I've only read through the first three in TMI. I gotta catch up before the next one comes out!

The Mortal Instruments just get better and better with each book :3 I fell in love with the characters, especially Jace and Isabelle. The Infernal Devices is pretty good too, though I can't say I like it as much as TMI. Although I've only read Clockwork Angel so far, so I can't pass judgement yet.
I <3 Alec so much. Him and Magnus Bane are just perfect! Plus I love Magnus being in pretty much every book, it brings the series and short stories together in my eyes.

!"I LOVED The Infernal Devices. I'm currently reading the 2nd Mortal Instruments book, but I miss the prequel series so much = [
@ Alpha, Kathy, and KasuraYAY! SO glad you like The Shadowhunter Chronicles! It's one of my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE series! I read all of the books, fell in love with them, then forced all my friends to read them. Now they're in love with them too. :D
Right now I'm reading
. It's a really interesting book about what might have happened if Cro-Magnons and Neanderthals lived at the same time. If you're interested in history this book is good, but be warned: there is mature content (like, adult mature content, not teen)!I also just finished reading
,
, and
. I really liked this series! The main character of the story, Natasya, has a really funny narrative voice. It's a unique series, a different take on what it might be like to be immortal and to have the ability to use magic.And of course, I read
, the latest installment in The Bane Chronicles that just came out on the 17th. 8D

@Ariel: Lol I'm currently trying to get all my friends to read TMI & TID as well.
I'm hoping TID and TMI meet at some point. I'd love to see Tessa and Jem meet Clary and the rest some day! I know she's writing more stories once TMI is finished next year, so it's still possible!
I just finished reading Anya (The Unexpected Princess), and am currently reading Pourpre (The Chronicles of Purpalla). They are by a new author on Amazon and are very good books!http://www.amazon.com/Anya-The-Unexpe...

Me too, so far! Penryn is kickass and Raffe is absolutely amazing!
