Book Recs? - Comments

If you're into psychological thrillers, I suggest reading "Dead Sleep" by Greg Iles. It's one of my favorite. Iles also has a series with his character Penn Cage that's really good, but those books are long. (The best one I've read yet is "Turning Angel".) Another series I really love is the Matt Wells series by a British guy, Paul Johnston. All of these I've mentioned are a bit dark though.

I just finished reading "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children" by Ransom Riggs. I read the entire book in two days (although I'm a fast reader). It's the first in a trilogy. It's not my usual read, but I found it quite enjoyable. I haven't seen the movie, so I can't compare them.

Oh, and another good place to get books is Half.com. There's generally a shipping charge, but you can still get books really cheap even including the shipping costs.

@ aurora borealis.
The movie was so good. So far nothing in the book happened in the movie, but it's still good.

THRIFTBOOKS IS LIFE

I enjoyed The 5th Wave. I need to go finish the series. I haven't read Nerve but the movie was pretty dope.

Some books I'd recommend:
Vassa in the Night by Sarah Porter
Croak by Gina Damico
Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor
Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo
Aimee by Mary Beth Miller
Blue Bloods by Melissa De La Cruz
The Lunar Chronicles series by Marissa Meyer

If you don't mind historical fiction mixed with mystery and crime, I suggest the Sano Ichiro novels by Laura Joh Rowland. The first book is called Shinju. I read the first fifteen or fourteen books in the series and they're amazing.

I really enjoyed the book They Cage The Animals At Night by Jennings Michael Burch.

All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven

My Heart and Other Black Holes by Jasmine Warga

Fracture by Megan Miranda (or any of her books)

The Taking trilogy, and The Body Finder series by Kimberly Derting

The Mara Dyer trilogy by Michelle Hodkin

This Is Our Story by Ashley Elston

False Memory trilogy by Dan Krokos

The Summer It Came For Us by Dan Rix

Future Shock & Future Threat by Elizabeth Briggs

Aftermath by Clara Kensie

The Hidden Memory of Objects by Danielle Mages Amato

A Song of Ice and Fire; its an ongoring series from which the show Game of Thrones is adapted. Its absolutely the best high fantasy I have read. Everyone needs to do the same.

EDIT: Also, Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden. An expert piece of literature.

@ PoeticMess.
I've read Eleanor & Park. I loved it! I'll check out Attachments! :)

@ TheWh0rr0r
You should check out Eleanor & Park and Attachments by Rainbow Rowell. They're both real life situations. Attachments is a really cool book.

And same! I'll buy ALL the books, but I barely ever spend money on going to the movies.

@ PoeticMess.
I will mostly read anything. I like Fantasy, but also like real situations.
My favorite book is Thirteen Reasons Why, I like books with those sort of themes, because I really liked It's Kind of a Funny Story.
As long as it has an interesting story that I can follow and not be able to put the book down. Like the books I mentioned that I read in here too I liked a lot.

And yeah I will not hesitate to spend money on a book, but when it comes to buying a movie I'd have to talk myself into, but that also could be because I work at a movie theater and can see new movies for free. xD

Anything with the Shadowhunters. Seriously they are amazing
And the Red Queen series by Victoria Aveyard.

The Short Drop by Matthew Fitzsimmons

My recent favorites are :
The Secret History by Donna Tartt
The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman
The Raven Cycle series by Maggie Steifvater
You by Caroline Kepnes
Deathless by Catherynne M Valente

@ TheWh0rr0r
I'm so glad you thought of me & yeah! I usually don't check things out from libraries because I want to keep them lol, so I spend so much money on books!

What's your favorite genre?? (obviously mine is fantasy)

@ PoeticMess.
I was hoping you'd comment. lol I actually started Fangirl, but I'm a really slow reader so I had to take it back to the library that's why I have to buy my books now. I'll try some of these when I get through my growing list. lol :)

This blog is so exciting for me lol because there are so many books that I love! I'm not sure if you're into fantasy, but a lot of my recs are going to be in that genre, but I'll try to switch it up! And you've probably read some too.

All the Shadowhunters' series if you haven't already
Shatter Me series by Tahareh Mafi
Throne of Glass series by Sarah J Maas
A Court of Thornes and Roses and a Court of Mist and Fury by Maas (the second one is REALLY good)
Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo
Fangirl and Carry On by Rainbow Rowell
Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card

Those are most of my favorites so I'll just stop there!
