Here is what I say:
Once you read Harry Potter I personally think no book(s) are as good because J.K. Rowling is such a good author. I do think however that The Lightning Thief is GREAT! Just think HP only with greek gods and it's not 9,000,000,000 pages long. There are 5 of those books and each one is around 300 pages I think. I am currently on the 2nd one (Sea of Monsters) and so far it is OK. The first 30-40 pages were just BLAH, but once you ge to pages 70+ it gets really good though. The only thing that annoys me is that they are going on ANOTHER quest to save the world. That was what the FIRST book was about, come on, think of a better idea.

You should read the Maximum Ride series!!! Its great!
Who me? I've heard of it… well my mom is taking me to the library today… what is the authors name?
James Patterson...theres like 5 books in the series but they were so good that I read them all in like 3 days! I had to beg my parents to take me to the library!!!!! The first ones called the Angel Experiment.
Thanks, I'll look for it. What is it about?
Its about these kids who are genetically mutated. They have wings and can fly and have super strength. But, there on the run from the people that mutated tehm. The bad people are trying to get them back.
Oh okay that sounds like somethig I would read. I just copiedthe author on my notes page on my iPod touch which I am on.
Yea…… soooooooooooooooooooooooooo
So do you have any good ideas for books? cause right now ive been rereading like everything I own haha!
No… have you read all of the Percy Jackson books including the ultimate guide? I am reading the ultimate guide cuz myom got the first book and the guide yesterday.
No i havent read them. What r they about?
They are about a kid who has ADHD and is dylestic. One day he goes on a field trip and his math Teacher turns into a bird and almost kills him. A new math teacher appears after he fights off the evil bird thing and peoPle pretend not to know the old teacher. Then when his mom takes him to the beach his friend Grover who reveals that he is a centaur comes and tells them try have to go. They try to leave bit evil bulls attack and he has to leave his mom and take him and Grover to safety. Then he relizes he is a halfblood, half godling. That is some o it but you have to read to find more.
Cool ill have to try to get it from the library!
You should, they are REALLY good. Al
ist better than Harry potter!
ist better than Harry potter!
Well then ill have to get it!!!

I also read The Lost Years of Merlin, by T.A. Barron, and it was quite good. Its a 5 book series, but I have only read the first one, which I recommend.
I read as well City of Bones, by Cassandra Clare. I also recommend that book if you like fiction. (this one is the first book of a trilogy)
I also want to read sometime the Maximum Ride series. Someone told me about it the other day and it sounds great.
(By the way, Grover is a satyr, not a centaur. There is a centaur but I dont want to spoil who it is to the people that have not read it yet)
Yeah the maximum ride books are really good!
Yeah, sorry for saying he was a centaur. I get that mixed up with satyrs. I looked up what the difference was in my Percy Jackson's Ultimate Guide of Percy Jackson.
