So, I know this book isn't exactly what you guys have been talking about, but if you haven't read Between The Lines, you should definitely go and try it!

"I like the one Picoult book that I've read, so I might go read it someday :)
I've never done this before but I'm going to try it out. I'm looking for a really good werewolf romance book (could be a series, doesn't matter if it's adult or YA)I've already read Mercy Thompson series, Nightshade series, and Prince Of Wolves series. I'm pretty sure that's all the wolf shifter books I've read
Well there's
(The other books in this series go into other paranormal women, not necessairily werewolves)
Not sure which of these you like the look of, some are better than others, but i'm not really sure what your tastes are like ☺

Andrea wrote: "Have you read Stephen king?"I've read
which I found somewhat boring. It was gross, but not scary :D Does that help?
Irene wrote: "So, can anyone recommend me a good scary book? Like scary scary! :D"You could try
. I liked it but it wasn't scary scary it was a little creepy. Okay, a lot creepy. But, to be honest, nothing actually scares me in writing or in movies so maybe you'll get scared? I don't know. If you decide to read it let me know xD Maybe we could BR the second one in the series :P
Can anyone recommend a good book that is
not
YA? An adult book that is not erotica. I'd take anything at this point.

I know tons! But what genre? Thriller, romance, "coming of age," sci-fi? :)
Irene wrote: "I know tons! But what genre? Thriller, romance, "coming of age," sci-fi? :)"Not coming of age. Thriller, romance or sci-fi are fine :D

If your looking for a romance I really like anything by Jojo Moyes, especially
You could also try any books by Cecelia Ahern or Sophie Kinsella. If your looking for something darker I love
or Stephen King? I really like
and
(Which is a short story collection) Sorry if you've read these, hope I helped a little! :)
@Amy Thanks! Me Before You and Eeny Meeny look interesting, I'm definitely giving them a try :) Stephen King's books are usually too long. How short is that short story collection? XD
I'd recommend:
which took me by surprise. Wasn't expecting much, but so good!
is really good as well
is also a favorite of mine, I just read this one for my bookclub, and it's so funny!
is just a mustread :)
is absolutely amazing. Until this book, I was disgusted by giving birth (sorry!), but this book really changed that. It's beautiful!
This book just meant a lot to me
Both are great reads
This is really good, and very special I think
The first book to make me cry
Well...it's good! :P
My favorite book by this author.Hope this helps

. Gave me chills when I was reading it that I was so scared to go to the bathroom to pee!

that I had a nose bleed haha!
: If I remember correctly it's around the 500 pages mark, there are a lot of stories though so it breaks the book up overall. I second Irene's recommendations on
and
Really good books! :)

Thanks Irene! :D The Rosie Project sounds great! And I'll give Nickolas Sparks a chance with Safe Haven. I've never read anything by him or watched any of the movies so this should be interesting. I heard a lot about the Alchemist, it's extremely popular in my country, I think because some of the events takes place in Egypt or something, but I never felt like I could get through it xD I should probably give it a shot though. That was really helpful. Thanks :D

Hmm 500 pages, huh? It's like Stephen King in small dosages xD Could be fun. Thanks Amy!! :D
Irene wrote: "Hahaha! :D I agree on
- that book is a tearjerker!! :D"hahahaha it's a consensus then? I'm definitely going to cry? XD
No problem Mira! :) Well, It probably depends on you as a person - I can get quite teary with a lot of books but this one is something else.
Amy wrote: "No problem Mira! :) Well, It probably depends on you as a person - I can get quite teary with a lot of books but this one is something else."Haha you guys got me so excited to read it :D
Can anyone recommend a good fantasy or paranormal stand alone? I can't find any at the moment and fancy a short read that isn't contemporary. Any help would be awesome. :)
@Amy - Okay, I'm gonna cheat a little here... Have you read this one:
It's really good! It's the first in a series, but the rest isn't out yet, so right now it's a stand alone ;) It's quite dark though! And more dystopian book though.
is pretty good as well, and it's not scary at all :) It's kind of a contemporary zombie novel if that makes sense?
is really good and a favorite of mind. It's like Hunger Games, but it's still its own story :)I only read the graphic novel of
but it was really good, so I'm guessing the book is as wellOkay, this was harder than I thought. Most books are part of a series haha :D
If series are okay, I'll recommend this one:
It's middle grade fantasy and so, so good and charming and I just love it so much!! :D I recommend it to everyone I ever talk to haha.Now, I'd like some recommendations on YA books that takes place in France! :D
Help please! I'm looking for any YA books starting with T (not the!) for a challenge. Anything especially good you guys can think of? :)

This is a historical standalone, though:

Only just saw this @Irene I've already read Warm Bodies, I really enjoyed it! Count Down looks good and I've never heard of it so yay! The murder complex has been on my wish list forever now haha. I'll check all of those books out! Thanks Irene :)
@Mei I've been meaning to read Tiger Lily and Ready Player One for ages now, thanks for the suggestions! Snow Child looks really interesting, I may pick it up soon. :)
Irene- as for celebrations, I believe there is some kind of occasion in each of these, but it might not be apparent from the summary.
If you have any questions let me know.
