Best books to bring you out of a reading slump
Amaya styles Amaya May 18, 2016 07:36AM
Hi all,

So lately I have been reading but it is just one of those times I honestly feel like I have gotten myself into a reading slump and cannot finish a book. The last book series I was really into was Harry potter read it many times and never ever gets boring.

Any good books that will totally blow my mind and help me get out of this slump it is killing me right now!

Thanks :)

If you really enjoyed the Harry Potter series (I know I did) -- I would suggest...

1. The Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan. (I know it seems like they are for younger kids, and you'd be right... but its almost like you grow up with them, and there are LOTS of books in that one)

2. The Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini (another one of my favs.)

and my personal favorite, which rivals Harry Potter (I know, its almost blasphemy)..

3. The Darkest Minds Series by Alexandra Bracken.

Love Love Love. Hope this helps you out :)


Some books I would suggest that are good are:
The Inheritance Cycle (1st book is Eragon)
The Lunar Chronicles (1st book is Cinder)
The Grisha Trilogy (1st book is Shadow and Bone)
Six of Crows (This is the spinoff duology to Grisha)
The Secrets of the Immortal Nicolas Flamel (1st book is The Alchemyst)
I will also say that Graceling, Legend, Young Elites, Throne of Glass, and many other series are amazing. Hope this helps!


Keeper of the Lost Cities by Shannon Messenger. Read the description, it's incredible! The series is my favourite ever, even more than Harry Potter, which says a lot. Read it! :)


The penryn and the end of days series by Susan Ee really helped me getting out of my reading slump, maybe you could give it a try!


A really good trilogy was The Hourglass Door, The Golden Spiral, and The Forgotten Locket. Those books were super good.

Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, just finished it today and it was awesome


Both The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Steven Chbosky and A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness were amazing. I finished both books in a day and just couldn't put them down, strongly recommend.


If you liked harry potter it will be very hard to find a series as good but here are some that I enjoyed:

Percy Jackson/ Heroes of Olympus
Hunger games
Fablehaven
Graceling
Lunar chronicles(first book is Cinder)
Grisha trilogy(first book is shadow and bone)
Storybound


Those are just some suggestions of series that I enjoyed. I hope it's helpful


Something totally different, but it helps me out of a readingslump: anything from Colleen Hoover. Good luck!

If you don't mind constantly switching perspectives, explicit content and heavy cursing then A Game of Thrones might help you.

It's certainly epic and worth the read!

If you want to read a book similar to Harry Potter, you should try Chronicles of Narnia if you haven't read it. Yeah, it is worth it!

If you want to try something else, something different, give The song of Achilles by Madeline Miller a try!

Hope this helps, have a nice day n.n
