Aphrodite wrote: "well whats ur tbr list?"Hi Aphrodite!
I just joined Goodreads and have yet to compile one. I have been a little busy with writing lately, and have fallen behind on keeping up with recent book releases. Therefore, I'm wondering if other readers would like to suggest some must-read books from their piles. :)
Thanks,
Ada
aww hello nd ok well I would recommend the night huntress series if yu haven't already read it? the partials, incarnate, firelight, sarah dessen books are amazin! iron king series, and anya bast is wonderful as well. I havent read all of these books but most. What kind of genre do yu like? yu can also check my to read books. I have a lot:P
Hi Aphrodite and Sheri!Thank you for the recommendations Aphrodite. I will take a peek at your list.
Currently, I'm concentrating on YA Everything! I love Paranormal, of course, but I enjoy Contemporary works as well. I haven't read much Historical Fiction and Horror (although I love horror films), but I'm open to exploring those genres as well. Romance is great too, as long as it's paired with something else. I also enjoy Adult books, especially books about other cultures. As you can tell, I'm not very discriminatory when it comes to my love for literature.
I suppose, since I have been spending a lot of time in the YA world lately, I would really like to learn about some great new releases that others would recommend. I'm planning to catch up on everything I have missed before I have to take yet another reading break for "ReAwakened".
I'm a huge reader (when I'm not writing). "A Book A Day" is my motto! :)
oh wow ok good! cause I have a huge list! there r really good books out there yu just have to search a little:) yur so pretty btw!:D oh nd thanks for the request:)
If you want to try something different in the YA field, you might explore the Robert A. Heinlein "juvenile" sf books, particularly The Star Beast and The Rolling Stones or anything by Andre Norton. You'll find other cultures and other worlds galore.
Here is the link to my "read" list of YA books...5 star books first :)

Thank you very much Stephen and Sheri. Goodreads constantly amazes me with its wonderful community of kind and knowledgeable readers!Sheri wrote: "

check out a new fantasy series EVANDRA CHRONICLES: LILY'S QUESThttp://evandra-chronicles.com/
KINDLE, NOOK, PAPERBACK
The Dukkering Boy by Frances Lewis is a nice read. It's about a gypsy boy who gets kidnapped from his family.

Thank you for letting me know about it Sheri!Hi Brandi and Michael! Thank you very much for your recommendations. I will definitely look into both of those books.
Hi Heather! Yes, I don't discriminate. :) I love all types of books, although there is something very special and fun about the YA genre. I actually have "Matched" (I saw an ad for it on the subway a long time ago and liked the cover - yes, ads work really well on me, hehe)...I just haven't had a chance to read it yet. I'll let you know what I think when I'm done.
Thank you for sharing some of your favorites with me, Gayatri! How fun is that list?! I will look at the rest of your suggestions as well.
Happy reading everyone!
I'm reading Patricia Briggs new one, Fair Game an Alpha and Omega novel. And I am loving it. Who else is reading this?

Thank you Amos! I already had most of them on my to-read list, so now I'm going to have to move them further up. :)
I recommend Blood Warrior by H.D. Gordon if you haven't read it yet. She is an awesome indie author and is one of my favorite authors so far. :)
