Book Recommendations? - phoebe91 - 09-03-2009 04:14 AM
Hey all!
I've recently been reading A LOT since I now have access to the public library (go bus system!). So, I was wondering if anyone had any book recommendations? (Aside from Twilight lol). If you are also wanting some book recommendations, tell me so and I'll give you some of mine too.
I'm also asking this because today I put together a site where I'm going to post kinda like book reviews, only not so much strictness in them. More like putting my thoughts onto the web about what I thought of the book (okay, so like book reviews xD)
Here's the link to the site if you want to check it out, but no one is going to force you: http://www.books.dreamy-stars.com/.
I guess I just got inspired from The Sims Times for writing things and actually posting it xD I've been meaning to post some of my (badly) written stories, but I just haven't o_o
So anyways, I'll stop ranting, tell me what you all read!

I like the website and the idea of a book review site. I love to read Ellen Hopkins books my favorite book from here is Impulse its about three teenagers going into a psychiatric hospital after trying to commit suicide. It has some romance mixed into,but its really good and depressing at times. Also try out Crank by her its based on her daughter who started to use drugs as a teen and then got pregnant. Her books are written in free verse poetry.
Another book I would recommend is a book called Everlost its a fantansy book about these two kids that die and go into a world called everlost its really good too. Hope the recommendations help you out.

All of them sound really good. I just reviewed Go Ask Alice, and Crank is something like it too, so it'd be nice to do that one.
I'll be adding them all to my list!

I read it in high school, but it is a good idea to ad to the list!
