I just read a really good one! its called "Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine" and it was awesome! The characters are really quirky and it's just a really fun book. Another one is "When Elephants Fly" and its centered around a girl who is developing Schizophrenia. Those are my only two recommendations for now! I also love anything by Joan Bauer, specifically "Almost Home" and "Hope was here" but those two are a little more focused on younger kids around the 11-13 rage. I still love em though!

@HighPockets group

AW YES JOAN BAUER IS AMAZING!!! I also recommend her books Peeled and Close To Famous. Hope Was Here and Almost Home are my favorites!!
(ALSO MASSIVE KUDOS TO HOPE WAS HERE FOR BEING SET IN WISCONSIN!!!!!)

@Yamatsu

Soap bottles! Those weird hand creams that your mother buys! Whatever the hell you call those not-bubble baths where you add the stuff and it smells nice but you can't make bubble hats or beards!

YOOOOO I love Princess academy!!! Did u know that there are two more books?

@TryToDoItWrite

High key read the Lockwood and Co Series by Jonathan Stroud!!!!! In my opinion, the writing quality is top notch, up there with JK Rowling and Rick Riordan (and I quote: "Stroud is a genius" –Riordan) in terms of humor, narrative flow, and getting to understand the characters to the point where you feel like you know them as people (the best part of reading!!) It's a supernatural action 5 book series!! Totally worth it!! I cried when it was over because I needed more

@Yamatsu

Honestly, even the ACTUAL Secret History is cool. It's a wildly inflammatory account of the Byzantine Empire, written by the same guy who heralded the greatness of Justinian and his wife, Theodora. He first wrote about how great they were, but had an entirely separate work calling them the worst people to live, ever. I highly recommend it!

Here's a list of personal favourites:
-Half Upon a Time series (includes Half Upon A Time, Twice Upon a Time, Once Upon the End) Author is James Riley

-The Sisters Grimm series by Michael Buckley

@soupnana group

  1. The Sisters Grimm by Michael Buckley (READ READ READ READ READ READ READ READ!!!!)
  2. The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer
  3. Heartless by Marissa Meyer
  4. Renegades by Marissa Meyer
  5. Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson
  6. Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer (I suggest you listen to the audiobooks of this one if you can. Narrator is AMAZING.)
  7. The Underland Chronicles by Suzanne Collins (Also, the audiobooks are amazing.).
  8. The Brotherband Chronicles (AGAIN! The audiobooks are AMAZING!!!!) by John Flanagan
  9. The Rangers Apprentice by John Flanagan (Read before the Brotherband Chronicles)
  10. Pretty much anything by Brandon Sanderson.

That's the best I got. I suggest you read them in this order…
1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 3, 9, 8, 5, 10
Easiest reads to hardest reads. Or if you want the best series first then read them in this order…
1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 10, 3, 7, 9, 8
Hope this helps! :D
