Hang in there! It’s a wonderful series!
Hang in there !! Best I’ve ever read !! re-read it 4 or 5 times !!!
Personally, no, one of the few series where the movie series is better than the books.
I had the same issue—tough start! I want to give it another try since so many people recommend it. And I love a good time-travel story.
It was a hard one for me to stick with when I started it, but I’m so glad I did!

Century Trilogy by Ken Follett fascinating fictional look at 20th century history following 4 families from the start of the Russian revolution and WW1 to the inauguration of Barack Obama.
It was really good…I just didn’t get as emotionally attached to the characters. I loved the historical references.
Wow, I really need to move this up in to read list
@Linda I understand. I cared far more for some characters than others. But it is a lot to keep up with for sure!
I also highly recommend anything by Ted Dekker. Most of his books are connected, but he has two series, The Circle (Black, Red, White, Green) and The Paradise series (Saint, Sinner, Showdown, Outlaw)

Outlanders
Light reading, loved the Cat Who books, all mysteries with a reluctant hero who has 2 Siamese.
Read them all. Really miss her writing.
Nikki Heat books by Richard Castle
Any series by Octavia Butler.
Definitely the books written by Michael Connelly. Most of them are about the character of Harry Bosch and, read in order, they take you on a great journey through his life as a detective in Los Angeles. My favorite mystery-police procedural writer. I’ve read them all twice!!!
The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer are great!
Lunar Chronicles
The house of night.
The Earth Children Series by Jean M. Auel. These books are set in the Ice Age and they are phenomenal. Lots a historical research and facts. The first book is the ‘Clan of the Cave Bear’.
I love these books too. The only thing I was turned off by was the sex scenes. Sometimes they made me roll my eyes or skim over!
@Joni The sex scenes are the only reason I would not recommend these books to young readers…I wish the author would write a companion book about the medicinal herbs, edible plants, etc.
Dragonriders series by Anne McCaffrey
Shadowhunters! Book 1 City of Bones
Have u read the infernal devices clockwork angel books and the rest of the series to

I just got the Bane chronicles my friend is reading it now I have already pre ordered The Queen of Darkness
I just want to live in the series and never come out
@Adriane I feel that way in every series. The last book is always sad!

@Amy ya Queen of Darkness have u heard when the Last Hours is coming out
@Adriane absolutely! I just haven’t gotten the new book of the Lord of shadows one yet!
@Aundi you’ll love it!!
I love, if you can still find them, the Animorphs series which I always recommend to Hunger Games fan. It is a 50+ book series about 6 middle schoolers who get the power to turn into any animal and have to fight body-snatching aliens who crawl into your ear and into your brain. It is creepy as heck because they literally think EVERY PERSON is an alien. It is so 90’s, which is fun now. The main girl is like Katniss- fierce, protective, and gets kind of dark–her love interest is sweet like Peeta.
The Lord of the Rings
Game of Thrones
Technically, A Song of Ice and Fire, but truly EPIC. They were hard to put down.
Clifton Chronicles. Archer
Louise Penny Inspector Gamache series.
Pendergast.

Philip Pullman’s trilogy His Dark Materials. Just came out with the trilogy prequel The Book of Dust.
And of course Lord of the Rings and Grafton’s alphabet mysteries.
Joe Ledger Series – Jonathan Maberry

That would be the Outlander series.

Anna and the French Kiss
The Left Behind series, The Mitford series, No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series
I have two: the Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes series by Laurie R. King and the Jane Whitefield series by Thomas Perry.
The Vampire Plagues by Sebastian Rook. They’re YA, but so engrossing. I’m a grown woman, but they’re still some of my favorites.
Definitely Outlander….Clan of the Cavebear…..and Most importantly GAME OF THRONES
Colleen McCullough’s series about Ancient Rome
What age range? I have some suggestions but you mentioned YA books in your list.
Outlander by Diana Gabaldon
and, yes, the Left Behind series.
I read Mission Earth by L Ron Hubbard in High School. I had to push thru a couple of them but I still think about that story 25+ years later.
Of course, tho, A Song of Ice and Fire is EPIC. George R R Martin really knows how to tell a story.
And, then, the all time classic, The Lord of the Rings (include The Hobbit) by J R R Tolkien must be included on the list.
I keep forgetting Catherine Coulter’s Sherbrooke Bride series. Set in 19th century England/Scotland…each book features a member of the family, but they are all intertwined throughout the series.
Bawdy, romantic and her great writing.
Big Stone Gap (4 in series)
Bought a box set before I left FL where I live to stay in IL for a month and forgot them! Can’t wait to get home.
I loved big stone gap, and Did not know there was a series!
@Nancy Yes- 4 Books in the series and first one was a feature film directed by the author!

If you like HG, you might like Divergent.
Narnia series and Divergent series…
Dark Tower by Stephen King
Well, for the YA fantasy bunch– Harry Potter, of course– Back in the bodice ripper days, I enjoyed the Roselynde Chronicles by Roberta Gellis (Much better than most of that sort) Then for the Pulitzer or History lovers– “The Awakening Land” (The Trees, The Field and the Town by Conrad Richter. For just an awesome book “These is My Words, by Nancy E Turner (written in diary form–that book is of my favorites ever and contains one of the great romances) and it’s sequels Sarah’s Quilt and Star Garden–also historical.. “Lonesome Dove” stands alone, but the other books that go with it aren’t bad..(“Lonesome Dove” is just the best of the best, and I love Gus)
Narnia
Harry Potter, The Chronicles of Narnia, All Souls Trilogy by Deborah Harkness. I’m also loving The City of Brass by S.A. Chakraborty, but it’s the only currently published one in its series (The Daevabad Trilogy).

Deborah Harkness, All Souls Trilogy.
I originally read this series a very long time ago, but have actually reread it a few times since, when I’m in the mood for some fantasy. In particular, I really enjoyed the play of good vs evil and all the shades in between, the somewhat forbidden romance (or at least ill-advised), and the conflict between the brothers. And it’s always interesting when you find yourself rooting for the “bad guy.”

Outlander

Also Lisa Gardner’s DD Warren detective series

Maisie Dobbs by Jacqueline Winspear, Culinary Mystery series(Goldy) by Diane Mott Davidson, and the ABC books by Sue Grafton are also fun.
Louise Penny Gamache, Deborah Crombie Duncan Kincaid, Cara Black Aimee LeDuc
Lord of the Rings, but I also enjoyed the Foundation series by Isaac Asimov, Chronicles of Narnia and of course Harry Potter series.
The Earth’s Children by Jean M. Auel.
Donna Leon’s Commissario Guido Brunetti mystery series set in Venice, Italy. I love these and have read all 27 books.
Outlander, then Dragonriders of Pern, then Harry Potter.
The Wheel of Time, Outlander, Harry Potter, Ender’s Game.
Outlander and discovery of witches
Game of Thrones
Harry Potter; Lord of the Rings; Foundation; Charlaine Harris’s Sookie Stackhouse, Midnight TX and Aurora Teagarden series; Armand Gamache (Penny) … I’m sure there are others I’ve forgotten here. So many good books, so little time!
I read the Sookie Stackhouse series, and am reading the Aurora Teagarden series now (I think I’m on book 5?). Haven’t tried the Midnight one yet. Glad to know it’s a good one! 🙂
