Does anybody know of any good books? I'm not looking for any type in particular, just something fun to read. Thanks!

Yeah, even though Snorri and Nicko or back from the different time, there's probably going to be another book.

Twilight. Though you've probably already read that. Um, I'd Tell You I Love You but then I'd Have to Kill You is pretty good. So is the Daughters of the Moon series and books by Tamora Pierce. Sandry's Book is especially good. And, I agree, the Septimus Heap books and books by Shannon Hale are really good too. Happy reading!

Hi Julia!

Anything by Tamora Pierce is good, particularly The Protector of the Small quartet. I also highly recommend East by Edith Pattou, especcially if you like mythology. Right now I'm trying to read Great Expectations by Charles Dickens, but that takes awhile, although it is good. I'm always full of book recommendations, as i read too much (if that's possible)

East is a really good book.  I've read it several times and love it!

I read it for a book report and LOVED it.

Did you know that Edith Pattou (author of East) has written 2 other books?

No!  Are they sequels to East, or just other books?

The aren't connected to East, but they are connected to each other. The titles are Hero's Song and Fire Arrow. They are very different from East, but still quite enjoyable! Not as thick, though.
