Master List of Books! If you're ever in need of a new read...

[Miss Amelia]

Hey members! So I've tried to read over most of the discussions and jot down books that we've mentioned or recommended! There were lots and LOTS of titles, which means that I most likely missed something... But anyway. Take a look at our Master List of Recommendations and see what we're reading!

[Baxter]

Call me crazy, but I'm not seeing Naked Lunch on that list.

[Mounica]

Great idea, Amelia! :]

[Hannah]

You should add Northanger Abbey to the classic's section!

[Miss Amelia]

now baxter, if i do put that on the recommended list, am i going to wish i didnt?

[Baxter]

Nah. It's only slightly worse than Wind-Up Bird Chronicle after all.

[★ Jess]

fantastic Amelia! Very well done!
I also think INKHEART too, but you have done a very good job here!

[Miss Amelia]

[★ Jess]

Might i just add, this list not not every ones favorite books, its ones that have been discussed and multiple people have commented.
Not to day all suggestions arent good.

[Miss Amelia]

yeah, booklover's right. i looked in the
"Favorite Books"
and
"Favorite Authors"
discussions to get the list... if you don't mention them, i dont know to put them on here!

[Rebekah Faith]

lolz good place to get books. (side not: its Lisi Harrison, not lisa. just so some peeps aren't confused. :D)

[Pandy]

You're so awesome for doing this Amelia :). Thanks.

[Miss Amelia]

[Girija]

this is amazing, thanks amelia!

can i also reccommend "Gone With The Wind" in the classics section, and also "Looking for Alaska", "An Abundance of Katherines", and "Paper Towns" by John Green, all other Sarah Dessen books (theres a lot),"Life As We Knew It", and "The Dead and The Gone" by Susan Beth Pfieffer under YA. hmmm maybe under series "Mortal Instruments" ( i think thats what its called) because you and Shelby recommended it to me

hehe sorry thats a lot :D

[Rachel (aka. Kaiserin Sisi)]

This is brilliant, Amelia. Great job!

I'd second the "Life as We Knew It" and "Mortal Instruments" recommendation. :D

[Rebekah Faith]

Lolz

[Miss Ryoko]

Hey is anybody reading The House of Night series? If so, do you know how many books the Casts are planning on having in the series total? If you know, I'd greatly appreciate the info :-)

[★ Jess]

I agree, and am planning to read most of these!

[Miss Amelia]

ohhh ive heard so many *bad* things about that series, lol. i think im gonna skip them

[★ Jess]

***just to clear things up**** i wasnt planning to read the House of Night Series ( but mayyyybe) i was saying its a good list!

[Miss Amelia]

yeah, i know what you meant :D

[Miss Ryoko]

Well, I'll let you know what I think Amelia when I read them. I think there are 5 out now, but I don't want to start reading them until most of them are out (like we've discussed previously :~p)

[Rebekah Faith]

if my library has the first, i'll prob start reading the series, if not, it may be a while. :D

[Kelsey]

How long did it take to make that list?

[Kelsey]

Is the Cirque De Freak Series good?

[Miss Ryoko]

My brother LOVES that series and he hates reading, so they must be pretty good. I read a bit of the first one and I didn't like the style of dumb down writing, but then again, I haven't read them so don't take my word. I have, however, read the 2 mangas that are out so far for the series and I liked them! So I'm sure the written series is pretty good

[Miss Amelia]

my brothers really like ARTEMIS FOWL, the WARDSTONE books (which I'm constantly talking about--sorry!) PJ and the LOOKING GLASS WARS. and then hayden really liked HUNGER GAMES but hutton didnt... so idk about that series--the family is divided!

[Jordan]

Looking Glass Wars is great. (I haven't read the sequels, yet)

[Miss Amelia]

I bet you'll like them, thought the 1st is my favorite by far :D

[Rebekah Faith]

If you don't like Hunger Games, I might shoot you (or myself, i haven't decided).
my bro has at least the first looking glass wars book, but i haven't read it yet

[Miss Amelia]

i bet you'll like it!!!!
im like 90% convinced you'll like it :D

[Rebekah Faith]

:D

[Ella]

I think that the Queens Thief Series by Megan Whalen Turner definitely belongs on this list, it's one of the best series' ever...

[Miss Amelia]

there you go - check it now

[Ella]

Thank you, has anyone else read it?

[Rebekah Faith]

no. wats it about?

[Miss Amelia]

I have. It's a trilogy right?

[Ella]

No, the 4th book is due out in March.

[Miss Amelia]

hmmm
I think I remember reading summaries of the books a few months ago

[Ella]

They are really good! You should really read them.

[Rebekah Faith]

kk. what are they about, ella?

[Diana]

Wow! my to-read list is going to get longer....

[Rebekah Faith]

lolz. yeah, mine is already at about 200, and now it is just gonna keep getting longer

[Miss Amelia]

Lol. My TBR is usually pretty small, because I only add books that I will "most definitely" read in the future :D

[Diana]
