  3. Paper Towns by John Green is a really good book. The Hunger Games series is good, too. I'm currently reading The Savior's Champion by Jenna Moreci, and its pretty good so far. It's not quite out yet, though. I pre-ordered. I would also recommend a book called Keep No Record, on Amazon, for biased reasons :p

    But seriously, Paper Towns. So good.
     
  4. Also, i love hp lovecraft for horror. His stories are deep and creepy as hell.

    I know these have received a lot of hate from people, at least I think they did... but I loved the Eragon series. Those were great books.

    I am a non-native english speaker. I might have read may be 3 books before.

    I read Fault in our stars and loved it. I thought it would be immature but turned out to be an amazing read. I loved John Green writing style very much.

    I read divergent series some time back. First book was amazing and second book was ok. I saw lot of comparisons online with hunger games. I should definitely read hunger games as well.

    What is Saviour's Champion like? What kind of story is it? Also, Keep No Record.....

    Do any of these books have any NSFW stuff? because I don't want any triggers (I am on hardmode).

    Thanks!

    Creepy? like what way? As long as they don't have any triggers. Its fine for me.

    Thanks!

    I like the idea of the book but will it have any triggers or anything like that?
     

  10. No, theres no triggers, they are classy creepy.
     
  11. Dark Matter by Blake Crouch is very good. Da Force is good, although might not be some of people's books. Very offensive and curse words ridden and violent, good book though
     
  12. They're all pretty clean (as far as I can remember), with the exception of The Savior's Champion, which I'm not sure about because I haven't finished it yet.

    Saviors Champion is set in older times, and its about this guy who has to enter this competition to win the hand of the Savior (she's sort of like the queen of the land), and its a battle between lots of guys. I'm not really sure what else to say about it... I'm really bad at summarizing books. But if you look it up online or something I'm sure you can find out more. It's good writing, though, and the main protagonist is very likeable. He doesn't want to enter the competition, because he thinks it's dumb and he isn't interested in winning the hand of a woman he doesn't even know, but he ends up entering for the cash prize, to help his sister with her health problems, because his family is poor.

    Keep No Record is a sort of suspenseful romance. It's about a criminal psychologist who ends up getting sort of "kidnapped" by the murderer the police are looking for. As they are living together in her captivity, she learns more about his past and she helps him overcome some of that. He wants to change and feels trapped in this life he's made for himself, but she helps him to find redemption.

    I has study in creative writing there are 2 years.

    1984 (George Orwell)
    Hundred days of loneliness (Gabriel Garcia Marquez)
    Don Quichotte I and II (Cervantez)
     
  15. I always appreciated Ursula LeGuin's Hainish pieces from an anthropological perspective, and I'll admit they helped to shape some of my world views. She was a feminist and a Taoist, so if either of those are issues for you, be warned.

    William Gibson's Sprawl Trilogy and K.S. Robinson's Mars books.

    Anyone else sensing a preference here?
