Hi Everyone,

I am writing this request for my nephew. He is in grade 10 and he just finished and LOVED the Maze Runner series. He is looking for his next reads. I know he read The Hunger Games and assume he read Insurgent/Divergent because I know my sister has them. What is out there that is similar to The Maze Runner books? He is really into reading right now and we want to keep that going. I would say he probably isn't into vampires, other creatures or the paranormal.

Thanks so much.
Jodi

I've just finished city of bones and I really don't know what to read next. Should I stick with the series and read the next book or should I read Legend. What would YOU do. I am literally torn between these two books cause they are really good.

[Tessa]

@Jodi
Since he's a boy I think he would prefer to read some books where the main character is also male. While I did enjoy a lot both The Hunger games and Divergent I still think he would enjoy more one of the following series:
Gone series: https://www.goodreads.com/series/4528...
Chaos Walking: https://www.goodreads.com/series/4493...
Unwind Dystology: https://www.goodreads.com/series/4333...
Lumatere Chronicles: https://www.goodreads.com/series/5711...
Benny Imura: https://www.goodreads.com/series/5113...
Here you have pretty much everything from kids with superpowers to SF to Dystopia to Fantasy and Zombies.
Let him read from the selection and ask him to choose. They are all good so I don't think he can choose something less enjoyable than the other. :)

@Dana: Legend. The Mortal Instruments series gets more annoying with each new book while the sequel for Legend is going to be amazing [I promise you]. You can't even compare the two books. The world building in Legend is amazing while in TMI you just get one paranormal creature after the other... And the romance in Legend is more appealing. No more annoying love triangles.

[Jodi]

Thanks so much for the suggestions Tessa! I will pass them on.

[Tessa]

Hope it helps and that he'll find his next favorite series among them :) . It is so rare for kids to read nowadays. We must support them as much as possible XD.

Maybe or . i don't remember thinking the vocabulary was extremely elevated, but i know they are very literary books. they both won the Printz award.

just got a Kindle! Does anyone have any suggestions on good Kindle reads?

[Greta]

Megan wrote: "just got a Kindle! Does anyone have any suggestions on good Kindle reads?"

first search on amazon for free or really cheap ebooks. There are lots of them and some i've read have been pretty good.

also..check if your library lets you borrow ebooks. mine does :)

[Jodi]

Greta, you can't put e-books from the library books on a kindle can you?

[Jalyn]

Jodi wrote: "Greta, you can't put e-books from the library books on a kindle can you?"

You can borrow ebooks from your library (if your library has an ebook lending program) and download them to your kindle, but they only stay on your kindle for a set amount of time and then the file isn't available anymore after that.

[Jodi]

Thanks Jalyn. I didn't think Kindle supported library books. I am going to look into it this weekend. That will save me a lot of money!

[Jalyn]

You're welcome! It does save a lot of money (and time too since you can browse books at your leisure instead of going to the library). :)

Anyone has any recommendations from the fantasy-genre? Intending to go book hunting soon!

[Mei]

Hi Victoria! Try Graceling Realm by Kristin Cashore :)

[Jodi]

Victoria wrote: "Anyone has any recommendations from the fantasy-genre? Intending to go book hunting soon!"

The Name of the Wind It is a long one but I enjoyed it.

[Daphney]

is there a book wherein the girl tries to make the guy fall in love with her? Like their best friends or anything?

Thank youuu i'll check it out!:)

Hi Daphney! Do you mean a second chance meeting in terms of the romance aspect? Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson is more on second chances to the protagonist's family but there's still romance in it. It's a long one, though, but I think you'll enjoy it :)

[Daphney]

How about a book about highschool crush then after so many years you met again that highschool crush? Is there a book like that?

[Daphney]

Thanks I'll look into it :))

Hello :) I'm really stuck on finding this book that i read about last week and forgot about adding it to my shelves :(
Its about a girl who i believe done something bad and the whole town disowned her for it and then she comes back to school and has an affair with her 29 year old math teacher (i think it's math anyway). I saw the book on my news feed from someone i follow and now can't find it anywhere!
