its been an awfully long time since i last posted anything here. I have finally finished my IGCSEs and have just returned from my travelling vacation. Now, im home and having the urge of posting a new book recom. because, well, ive been reading and loving and wanting to share =)
anyways, on with what matters:
1) The Watcher Series - Lilith St. Crow.
Basically, these books are about these men called Watchers, who used to be normal humans, who then decided to become Watchers in a way to redeem themselves. They are sworn to protect witches, also known as Lightbringers, of the various Dark groups (such as the crusade and the brotherhood) no matter the cost. Of course, the watchers being creatures of the dark and the lightbringers people of the light, the watchers do not like having physical contact with these witches, as it hurts them.... with the exception of THEIR witch. Heres the site: http://www.lilithsaintcrow.com/journal/the-books/the-watcher-series/
2) Paranormalcy series - Kiersten White
Right now, there are two of them: Paranormalcy and Supernaturally.
They tell a story about a girl, Evie, who works for the IPCA ( an organization that controls paranormal creatures which prowl out in the open) but longs for a normal life. Evie is a special human because she can see through the glamours of the creatures. Soon enough, Evie's life is indeed changed, but not necessarily to normal. heres the site: http://www.kierstenwhite.com/paranormalcy_series
3)Mercy Falls Series - Maggie Stiefvater
the third book. Forever, just came out this summer. These books tell the tale of Sam and Grace and how the try to beat the impossible to be together. Oh! btw, Sam is a werewolf (not really, but i cant explain it any better) and Grace is just a human being, extremely attached to her wolf (aka sam). site: http://maggiestiefvater.com/novels/#wolves
4) Clockwork Angel - Cassandra Clare
For those of you who read the Mortal Instruments Series, you might want to keep an eye open for the Infernal Devices series too. I, for one, absolutely LOVED the book. Tessa Gray is a american girl lost in the city of London ( In England for those who dont know). Looking for her brother, Tessa finds more than she had bargained for. Meeting with the extremely charming Will and ever sweet Jem, and the rest of the Shadowhunters, Tessa's view upon the world has totally changed. If anyone does indeed read this book, please comment and tell me: Jace or Will?? site: http://theinfernaldevices.com/
5) The Hunger Games - Suzanne Collins
There really arent any words to describe this book. I hope you will fall in love with the characters as I have. But basically, this is the story of a place where there are 13 (now 12) districts run by a Capitol, which hosts a Hunger Game every year, where 2 people from each district are chosen (randomly) to fight each other... until they die, or are the last one standing. Written in Katniss' point of view, we see how awfully exciting this world it. Oh and btw, the film is coming out in 2012, so i suggest you read this SOON! =) sitee: http://www.thehungergames.co.uk/
6) Goddess Summoning Series - P.C Cast
different stories about different women who had trouble in their lives on the present day and were then transported, whether willingly or not, to a different time, to achieve the impossible. cant really say much about the series in general.. just that i enjoyed it a lot =) While at it, check P.C. Cast's other works, i enjoy her writing. http://www.pccast.net/
ARGH. There are just so many books which are so good. I hope these 6 recommendations will be enough for the rest of the holidays. If not, I might just make another
