Undiscovered Books

[emma]

You know those books that are fantastic, that you know are just as good, if not better than, the Hunger Games or whatever book is popular that week? Comment them here so other people can learn about them, and love them too.

And you know those books that we love so much, that you just feel like the book is yours, and you don't want anyone else to know about it. We all have them. Is it okay that we want to keep them all to ourselves?

The Way We Fall

I was lucky enough to be given a free book called Heron Park by C.K. Raggio for review, look it up it was a great crime novel and a must read!!!
Every good book deserves to told, never keep a good book to yourself they are meant to be shared!

Throne of Glass, it's an awesome fantasy book with a badass heroine :)

Bristles was really good! and The Iron Butterfly ~~ both free (or really cheap) ebooks, and worth the read!

Only one book...no series and a great adventure!!

[Pubslush]

He Never Liked Cake by Janna Leyde
So great!

[Brandy]

Amy Bartol has a series called Premonition. They are really great, I was skeptical and thought it was going to be another Twilight but its so much better. I love the Indie books.

Maybe most of you are very familiar with this book but to those who haven't read it, READ IT!!! (im not really forcing you though, do whatever you want with your life) This was just the most amazing crazy, twisted book ever. The feels are just too much too handle and the prologue hooked me immediately and you kind of just forget everything once you start reading it. Best stand-alone I've read so far. It also made me love the author so much. I really look up to Katja Millay for being simply brilliant considering this is her first book. Her writing is just smart and funny and awesome. There's too much to say about this book.

The Crystor series


Something Witchy


Lovely Vicious

[Allison]

@Khatie I loved Noughts and Crosses! The whole series was amazing.

I also really really liked Angel Food by Brittany Tuttle. Awesome read :D

I would like to recommend James Clemens. He wrote a series called "The Banned and the Banished," and it was one of the better series I have read. It was full of wonderful descriptions, lots of action, magic, fighting, and fantastic creatures.

[Melissa]

I absolutely loved Lesia's Dream! It's a historical fiction that not many people know about, and it's my favourite hist-fic to this day.

[Rachel]

Ella Minnow Pea is really good, and nobody outside my senior honors English class seems to know about it. Also, Castle Waiting.

[Maggie]

I love the Downside Ghosts series by Stacia Kane.
