The book you like most discussion
What book/series do you wish you experience again for the first time?
The Dollenganger series by V. C. Andrews. One of my very few guilty pleasures together with "Peyton Place" by Grace Metalious.
The Hunger Games. I remember after reading the first book I was like WTF?
It's a hard choice between A man called Ove, which was the only book to make me cry, and La Tiganci by Mircea Eliade, which felt like a dream where every character was a ghost.
The Seven Realms by Cinda Williams Chima. It's a great fantasy series and one of my favorites.

I read it about a year ago now and it's become my all time favorite series, I quite literally have thought about it every day since first reading it."I did enjoy the Shadow & Bone and Six of Crows books. I never continued on to read the King of Scars duology, am I missing out?
Loads of really interesting recs here. Thanks so much for your replies!
'A darker shade of magic' is an amazing book. You should give it a try if you haven't !!
The Selection series. And the Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.
The A Good Girls Guide to Murder series - the plots and the way i fell in love with the characters
Gotta be Cruel prince 👑❤️❤️❤️ I would stab someone if it meant I could read it again for the first time.
Either The Grishaverse, Sky in the deep, or the Cursebreaker series.
The Clan of the Cave Bear by Jean M Auel.
Right now, Hunger Games! I loved them so much i cried at the end of the series cause there was no sequel 🥲 I just wanted it to go on!! 😭♥️
the hunger games and shatter me for sure
Harry Potter and The Riftwar Saga by Raymond E Feist!!
The Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini. Reading Eragon for the first time absolutely rewrote my brain
Defend the Dawn (series)The Curel Prince
Throne Of Glass
Powerless (not even finished lol)
ASOIAF for sure. Wish it had an ending though
Louise Penny's 18-book series about Inspector Gamache, his team, and his family, in the unmapped little village of Three Pines, is a wonder. These characters have history! All are beautifully crafted and soon become real for the reader. I think the 18th must be the finale, although I hope it's not. For those who'd like to step into Gamache's world, the first book is titled Still Life.
“The Lost Boys” or “The Miles High Club” series’
Also “The Butcher & Blackbird” book. It is beyond good!

Throne of Glass, The Hobbit, Wuthering Heights, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue.
The Beartown series lives in my head rent free
Woodswoman (Anne LaBastille). Very inspiring!
Throne of Glass! The emotions that series took me through!
Ripley Under Ground (Patricia Highsmith).
Throne of Glass, for sure. Don't even need to think twice.
The Dowser Series by Meghan Ciana DoidgeThe Starstruck Series by Brenda Hiatt

The Talisman by Stephen King & Peter Straub. I was reading it on a trip to South Carolina with my wife. On the drive back, I asked my wife if she would read it while we drove (I was enjoying it that much). She did, but stopped not too long afterward because she wanted to read it for herself.The Talisman
Easy one. Karin Slaughter's Grant County and Will Trent Series; also Brian Freeman's Jonathan Stride series.
Harry Potter, and a Good Girl's Guide to Murder
The hunger games I read it a while ago and I could not put the book down it was so good. I have tried re reading it but does not hit the same. That book was a 5/5

I'm looking for recs for your roman empire book.. a series that you were consumed by or a world that you wish you could fall in and get lost within for the first time all over again. No spoilers if you can avoid them please!
I'm a fantasy, romantasy, dark romance and sci-fi girlie predominently but I'd be good to broaden my horizons for the right book.
Also, I'm active on Goodreads and always looking for new book friends so feel free to add me :)
