Book recommendations!

I am absolutely loving my new Kindle Touch (Thanks DH! Happy belated b-day to me!)

I just finished reading book 1 of 'The Hunger Games'. I finished in a day. It was so good!

First question, are books 2 and 3 just as good?

What else should I put on my reading list?
My fav recent books have been The Time Travelers Wife, The Help, Water for Elephants and My Sister's Keeper. I love books that read like a movie.

Any suggestions?

Re: Book recommendations!

I personally found Book 2 and 3 of the Hunger Games Triology to be less enjoyable than the first. The first was SENSATIONAL - I loved it. The second I liked a lot, and the third I liked. They're still good to read!!!


19 Minutes or anything else by Jodi Piccoult

Lovely Bones


I love YA novels, so if you like those - this MS teacher is your girl for recommendations!

Her Fearful Symmetry

A Discovery of Witches

(goodreads.com is the absolute BEST site add me!)

Right now I'm reading Hunger Games-

I love reading - I usually devour at least 1-2 books a week.

My DH just bought me the Kindle Fire for my Thanksgiving present- (he does this every year!)

I can't wait to get it!

Re: Book recommendations!

I lovedddd the Hunger Games. I thought book 2 was great, book 3 was decent, but I had to read it just so I would know how it ended.
