@Bhawna naw I love them all and have re-read all of their works. With Mass I love her court of Thorns and roses series better, Bartol its her Kricket series, Cashore is Graceling, Chima is her Seven Realms series. But they all have more books and all are great.

@Bhawna fantasy from the perspective of half orc brothers. Its a fantastic series with lots of spin off books too. And the battles are epic.

I love all that you mentioned and two of my other favorites series are The 5th Wave trilogy and The Sookie Stackhouse Novels (HBOs True Blood). I own both and reread them quite often.

Ready Player One – but don’t watch the movie until you’ve read the book. The book is 100 times better than the movie.

Lol the only reason I read HP was because I love Emma and wanted to watch her films. I can never watch the films without reading the books first! Thanks for the suggestion!

I “read” that one on an audio book with my daughter on a long road trip. Will wheaton reads very well.

One of the reasons I got the audio as well was because Will Wheaton did the reading.

The Night Circus and Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell! Unfortunately neither one is part of a series, but they are really transportative!

I just read All The Birds In The Sky and it was the first non-children’s book that made me feel transported and not cynical, just enough magic and just enough reality.
