and 
."I loved fated!
Fated was great, but I never came around to reading Echo...Currently, I'm reading
Finally reading City of Bones and plan to read Life of Pi next.
Currently reading
the 3rd book in the Swipe series.
Finished
earlier today (it's so awesome), and now I'm reading
.
Hey guys! I have the next couple of books I want to read figured out (Prodigy by Marie Lu, The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, City of Ashes by Cassandra Clare, and Shadow Kiss by Richelle Mead...) but I'm not sure what I want to read after those. I have a list, and if you guys could give me your input about which one(s) I should read next, I'd greatly appreciate it! Here are the books I was thinking of:The Elite by Kiera Cass
Divergent by Veronica Roth
Matched by Ally Condie
What Happened to Goodbye by Sarah Dessen
Crescendo by Becca Fitzpatrick
Beautiful Darkness by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl
Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins
Requiem by Lauren Oliver
The Last Echo by Kimberly Derting
Looking For Alaska by John Green
Elixir by Hilary Duff
The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han
Need by Carrie Jones
I hope I get some great answers. I can't wait to hear what you guys think. Thank you for reading this! :)

has anyone read it ? What did you think ?"I thought it was interesting! I think I gave it like a 4/5 :)
Elixir was great. So were Divergent and Matched. Matched was a really peaceful book for most of the time. Just teenagers doing regular teenage stuff, until they found out the truth about their world.Divergent was amazing!!! I'd like to read The Elite but haven't gotten around to it yet.

or
Divergent is a breath of fresh air when it comes to dystopian books. The main character is strong and independent, and the story itself is unique and frankly, extremely addicting. And I will not even begin to mention the love interest... *swoons*
LfA is just a really good book. It teaches about loss and love and just the importance of letting go and moving on. The main character goes through so much growth, and the writing is typical John Green (aka, it's wonderful)
I'd wait out on
since you have a year until the last book anyways.

Out of your list I've read . . .
Divergent - Amazing. You need to read it.
Matched - Really good. I like how the perfect society just crumbles.
What Happened to Goodbye - It's Sarah Dessen. Of course I liked it. It's not one of my favorites by her though.
Crescendo - It didn't make much of an impact on me. I did like it, but I didn't love it.
Looking for Alaska - Awesome. You just have to read it to understand just how great it is.
The Summer I Turned Pretty - A really sweet story. I enjoyed reading it.
Finally got around to this! So far so good, amazing cover, amazing story and amazingly written! Only downfall is the pacing is a little slow so hopefully it picks up

I remember I enjoyed reading Incarnate, and I agree about the pacing.
I'm almost finished reading Wait for you by Jennifer Armentrout. Then i will start reading Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo.
I just finished the entire (so far) Mortal Instruments series. I have to say for a book I picked up and put down several times I didn't have high hopes until I saw the movie preview.And wow.
It blew me away. I devoured all 5 within a week. I'm left with that feeling you get in the pit of your stomach when you have no more material to leave but you're hesitant to leave the story world you were just in. So good.
I'll be starting Unravel Me tomorrow. I really enjoyed Shatter Me (mostly because I liked the unique writing style... and I like X-Men, and come on, the resemblances are Uncanny ((haha pun)) ).
starting
I have been waiting so long and I finally have it
Just started The Maze Runner and its very interesting so far

Finished Unravel Me. The first part of the book wasn't wowing me the way Shatter Me did but towards the end, wow, I loved it.Starting Clockwork Angel today.
ShiverLingerWow Maggie Steifvater is Amazing. I love her writing! This is recommended highly for people who are The Raven boys fan
@Anum that series is amazing and beautifully written. One of my personal favourites. Forever was even better. I felt it was kind of introspective YA book.

The Great Gatsby!!! how was it?
Today, I started reading "Darkness Before Dawn" by J.A. London. It's a Vampire Dystopian YA novel that is set in a somewhat fictional and futuristic Denver, Colorado. It has been really good so far and I have enjoyed the characters very much, namely Dawn and Victor. I can't wait to finish reading it tomorrow so that I can find out what happens!
Finally getting to start reading City of Bones by Cassandra Clare(still don't know how to add pics yet).I have the first 5 books on my kindle.
Just finished The Elite by Kiera Cass.
