i’ve never read the series but there are some books that are just timeless. i’m 42 and love the HP series, but most other YA i can’t deal with.

Nothing wrong with giving it a try. I normally borrow from my library, though, so it’s no loss if it’s not for me.

I don’t normally like YA, but I do dabble occasionally. Just to take a break from my usual.

Read whatever you want to. I’ve just started reading Charlie Higson’s The Enemy, series. I’m probably about 40 years older than his target audience, but they interest me, that’s my only criteria for choosing books.

@Paul I don’t know how well or not it’s written grammatically, but that genre or style does appeal to some; even if it’s not for others. That’s the wonderful this about books, there’s something for everyone!

@William I agree. There was plenty of surprises, and moments where I couldn’t–wouldn’t put the book.

William

@Shyla god,I love the characters but my most favorites is Magnus and Cleo

Shyla

@William ooh, I loved Magnus. This may sound a little mean, but I liked that scar, thought is what a pretty cool touch.

Shyla

Cleo was slowly growing on me too.

William

@Shyla yeah,he’s actually a very brooding character but he does care underneath that cold facade

0
Shyla

@William agreed. Jonas-the rebel leader-also started to grown on me more than Cleo. I think it was Jonas anyway.? Been a while and I’ve read so many books since then.

William

@Shyla ok,I got the first book of the spin off/prequel series if you got them

0
Shyla

@William thought about trying those not sure yet

0
William

@Shyla you should,it’s only two books,supposed to be a trilogy but the 3rd was never published due to low book sales on book two,the author is encouraging fans to demand a book 3 on Twitter and Instagram

William

Plus there’s a spin off/prequel series call a book of spirits and thieves series,it’s two books which were originally supposed to be a trilogy but the 3rd was never published due to low book sales on book two but the author is encouraging us fans to demand a book 3 on Twitter and Instagram

If you think they sound good then go ahead, books are meant to be read after all. ? Read what you feel like reading. You only live once, so read some books, especially ones that sound interesting to you.
I started then once, but had to put them down.? I love the story and everything about them, my mom just didn’t feel they were right for me just yet. (I agreed with her truth be told.) When I’m older I defiantly plan on finishing them up. ?

Yes. Age shouldn’t matter. I’m 37 and read mostly fantasy and YA. I’m in a fantasy phase right now and can’t get out of it.
