I just started “Outlander”. Only a couple of chapters in and kind of slow. What do others think? Should I hang in for more?
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!

Tie between The Clifton Chronicles by Jeffrey Archer and Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett
Clifton Chronicles are great!
Both sets are great
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 I loved the historical references.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)
The trilogy by Greg Iles: Natchez Burning, The Bone Tree, and Mississippi Blood.

The Dark Tower
Outlander
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
A million times over – this was THE BEST series and it’s not done yet. With 9-10 books, it will keep you busy for a while
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!
The Last Hours are suppose to be coming out soon that is with Will and Tessa’s kids
theres still one more book coming in the lady midnight trilogy
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.
I loved the Matched Series
The Steig Larson series
The Girl With the Dragon Tatoo
Yes!
Red Queen
I read this just last summer. Hoping to get far enough down my list to read the rest on the series.
I’m on the 4th book. ♥️
Gregor the Overlander by Suzanne Collins. I love more than Harry Potter…okay well, maybe not more!
The Oz books by L. Frank Baum and various other writers (there’s 40 books).
Harry Potter
Mortal instruments by Cassandra Clare
There’s a series by Rosalind Miles about Gwenivere that I really loved. It’s three books, I believe.
The Mitford Series by Jan Karon
Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer.
Lord of the Rings
Nancy Drew.
The Vampire Chronicles
Almost forgot about these. Anne Rice made me love vampires.
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
Harry Potter
That would be the Outlander series.
The Ranger’s Apprentice by John Flanagan. (YA), Bernard Cornwell’s The Last Kingdom, and Simon Scarrow’s Eagles of the Empire series.
Unwind by Neal Shusterman
The Valentine series (The Shoemaker’s Wife; Brava, Valentine; The Supremem Macaroni Company) by Andriana Trigiani.
The Chronos Files, by Ryssa Walker
Kim Stanley Robinson’s “Mars” series – Red Mars, Blue Mars, Green Mars.
His Dark Materials by Phillip Pullman
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!
I saw the film, and read the first two. Will have to look for the others!
