Gini (camp80) | 88 comments So I'm really sick of first person books~ It seems like every book I get is in first. Can anyone recommend some good third person books for me? And I thought that this would be a good place to just list your favorite third person books.

I've already read Tithe (The Modern Faerie Tales, #1) by Holly Black and her other books, thanks for any replies.

Daria (dariadeptula) Do want third-person books in a specific genre, or just any third-person books?

Gini (camp80) | 88 comments Well I would love third person supernatural YA but any third person books that you'all have loved would work too.

Daria (dariadeptula) Dreaming Anastasia (Dreaming Anastasia, #1) by Joy Preble Wicked Lovely (Wicked Lovely, #1) by Melissa Marr Wondrous Strange (Wondrous Strange, #1) by Lesley Livingston City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments, #1) by Cassandra Clare
Those are all the "supernatural" ones I can currently think of.

And here are some in other genres:
Goose Girl (The Books of Bayern #1) by Shannon Hale Eragon (Inheritance, #1) by Christopher Paolini The Giver (The Giver, #1) by Lois Lowry Uglies (Uglies, #1) by Scott Westerfeld Ash by Malinda Lo The Green Glass Sea by Ellen Klages

Those are all the "supe.
Emily, I added Dreaming Anastasia to my to-read list, and I've read Wicked Lovely. I didn't care for City of Bones, but thank you for all the recommendations!
