  • What are some great fiction books to read?

    Posted by admin on January 31st, 2010 and filed under fiction books | 20 Comments »

    I am bored out of my mind right now, and I have read like, all of the books at my library, so I need some suggestions! I really love Harry Potter, so I need something like that. I like fiction books, mainly about magic and adventure. Please help me!

    Try the "Fablehaven" series by Brandon Mull. It’s about 13yo Kendra and 11yo Seth, whose grandparents run a haven for magical creatures. The first book is called, "Fablehaven". Lots of adventure and magic. There are 3 others after that and another coming out in 2010.

    The "Percy Jackson and the Olympians" series by Rick Riordan is also really amazing. It’s based on Greek mythology but set in the present day, and it starts with a 12-year old boy discovering he’s a demi-god, son of Poseidon. The first in the series is called "The Lightning Thief". There are 5 books in the series. Have fun! :)

      Captain Blood by Raphael Sabatini. It’s the best pirate story of all time and one of my favorite books ever. It has it all: romance, adventure, humor and wit. You’ll love it.

      Twilight by Stephenie Meyer, The Clique by Lisi Harrison, Kissed By An Angel, Pretty Little Liars by Sara Shepard, Lock and Key by Sara Dessen. I love the pretty little liars, it might even be made into a tv show. It’s a mystery and fabulous. Prettylittleliars.com or prettylittleliarsbooks.com

      I would suggest the house of night series by P.C. and Kirstan Cast. It is a great series full of magic, darkness, love and most definatly adventure. Don’t knock it until you have read it.

      well if you are OK with a little romance Twilight is EXTREMELY GOOD! i was not a big fan at first but when i started i could not stop. Also a good book is I’d tell you id love you but then id have to kill you. that is adventure. its good, and there are currently 3 books to the series, and the author is not ready to give up on the book yet. So if you like adventure the book: I’d tell you i love you but then id have to kill you : would be a good book for you
