I don’t think any are on kindle. Sorry! I buy old paperbacks on ebay! I’m basically addicted to coming of age I. The 20th century! You should check them on Goodreads.
@Margaret that’s okay! I always check kindle first as it tends to be cheaper! But I’ll check eBay and Amazon now
Thank you! ?
Little Miss Strange by Joanna Rose has been my favorite book since I was 13.
The uglies series by scott westerfield is also a favorite!
I’ll have a look at Little Miss Strange now ?
I have the uglies series in paperback – just haven’t been ‘in the mood’ to start those ones yet, but will soon!
Can’t find the other on my kindle ?
I dont know if you can buy it on kindle. I’ve had a hardcover since I was 13.

4. An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir

Thank you, I’ll have a look now ? I’ve been thinking about trying a Sarah J. Mass book did a while now! And Shatter Me is one I’ve questioned getting too ?
@Abby you’re welcome! You should definitely read Sarah’s books! They are amazing!!!!? and Shatter Me is so so good! I love that series! It will be one that I eventually reread!
@Danielle my basket on Amazon is going to be huge ? hahaha! Thank you ?
@Abby lol mine always is! You’re welcome! Well you can always ask for some of the books for Christmas! I already have a whole it’s of books I’m asking for ??
@Danielle oh I’ve already got my Christmas list ready! ?
Abby Foley lol great minds think alike! ? I’ve got mine ready too! But I’ve bought some of the books I originally had on the list and I keep adding new ones. I just want all the books ? my birthday isn’t until February and I’m already starting to think of books to ask for then Too ?
@Danielle I’ve done exactly the same ?? my birthdays in November, so I get two book filled months in a row!?
@Abby yay!! That’s exciting! ? what books are you asking for?!
@Danielle they’re mostly all young adult romance! Which is why I asked in here because I’m getting a tad annoyed with everything I read being romantic now, I want something slightly different, YA books are easier for me to follow than adult books (health condition) so I like to get stocked up because I can read one in two days, but I’m always wanting to try easy reading adult books too and I’ve a few of them on my list ?
I just got samples of both of Sarah J Mass’s, and I bought 3, 4 and 5 on your list and got samples of the others ??
Omg A Darker Shade of Magic yessss!!!
@Abby I love romance in books! I just read YA anything pretty much. I enjoy fantasy, sci-fi, dystopian the most.
I haven’t really read many adult books. I have some on my shelves, but I usually keep to YA books!
Yay! I hope you enjoy Sarah’s books enough to want to buy them!
Wow! so you bought An Ember in the Ashes, A Darker Shade of Magic, and The Illuminae Files? ?? did you just buy the first book of each series? I hope you enjoy them all! All Those series I mentioned are my most favorite ?
@Dena YES! I read that series a couple months ago and i’m completely in love with it! ? I actually cried when I finished the last book, because I was so sad it was over lol
@Danielle I bought the first book of each! Thought I’d see whether I like them before I get the rest! But they all look so good?
@Danielle I finished the last book just a few days ago! And I understand completely but did you know a new trilogy is coming in the same world? I think it’s a new cast of characters but we still get to see the original cast but I’m not sure
@Abby I completely understand that! Well I’m glad I was able to help you find some books to read ? you should just go ahead and buy the first book in each series by Sarah. ? I’m sure you will love them ? those 2 are my most favorite like no series will ever top those 2 ever lol.
I literally have to buy every single book in a series that’s released before I buy it lol. I like having them all on hand when I go to read that series ?
@Dena YES YES YES! I’m beyond excited for this series! ? I know it Will be based on new new characters, but I’m glad it will be set in the same world and it would be amazing if some of the characters from the first series show up! ? I need them to! I was devastated when there was no more to read of those characters lol
@Danielle I couldn’t decide which I liked best between the Sarah series so I got the samples of each first so I can decide which to buy?
Oh gosh no I usually get the first one before the rest just to make sure?
@Abby lol you are going to love both! So you may as well just get them now ? but I understand wanting to read samples first! I’ve reread A Court of Thorns and Roses once. So I’ve read that series twice and I’m currently rereading Throne of Glass now so I’m on my second read of this series too! ? I’ll reread them multiple times in my life, because that’s how good they are!
I’ve never disliked a book I’ve read so I’m able to read all books in ever series I read ?
@Danielle Throne of glass looked more interesting to me I think so I’ll buy that one first ?
That’s good then! At least you know what you do and don’t like!
I’ve only read one book I’ve hated, but I’ve only really stuck to a certain genre so I guess there’s still time to dislike more!
@Abby it’s so good! I don’t think you will be disappointed! If I did have to pick between the two series I’d say ACOTAR is my favorite, but ToG is just as good! ☺️
Exactly. YA just calls to me lol.
Hating one book isn’t too bad and yeah there is more that you may not care for. But definitely try out those series I listed! I hope you enjoy them ? did you get a sample of the Raven Cycle series?
Yes I did!
I’ll screenshot this so I can tell you what I think once I’ve read them!! Thank you so much for your help, it’s been great❤️

So far for 2018 it’s been ‘Ready Player One’ and The Darkest Minds series! Of all time, The Hunger Games series. ?
Ready Player One was a fun read awesome
I couldn’t finish The Darkest minds. I think I have a hard time reading about kids as an adult. I probably could have given it more of a chance but I was bored.
@Denise same thing happened with me I’m gonna try again tho
Completely understandable, especially when you’re reading everything through the mind of a kid. If you ever feel like it picking it back up though, you might still enjoy it bc of how un-sugar-coated a lot of the action and central themes are. I feel like a lot of the political stuff about the state of the U.S., people and government, in that world is terrifying as the books start explaining more and more.
This changes all the time but here are ones that are always on the list.
1. Cassandra Clare – Her Shadowhunter series is one of the best.
2. Tell Me Thing Things I forget the authors name but this one is so freaking good!!
3. The Black Witch Chronicles by Laurie Forest
@Denise I felt the same way. I tried like 4 times to read The Darkest Minds and it just didnt work out. It was so boring.
