DON'T recommend a book! (again!)

DON'T recommend a book! (again!)

I'm almost done with the last twilight saga book which has me depressed because I'm sad I won't have anything to read when it's done. What should I read next? I want something fun and adventurous and not depressing.

ETA reverse psychology

LMAO at the reverse psychology.

I am trying to think of one that is fun and light. So far I cant come up with anything

I finished the Twilight series last week and now started on the Sookie Stackhouse series (True Blood on HBO is based on the books) - very fun to read!

i've read three of her books, and they're all really good. something borrowed was her first, then something blue, which have the same characters. baby proof was her third book, and was also really good. they're fun light reads, and make you feel really good. i'm not a huge chick lit person, but her books are all really good.

Order in that order. Start with Something borrowed, first. Something blue has the same characters, but follows something borrowed. If you read them out of order, you'll be confused, lol

I liked the Emily Giffin books I had read-
Something Borrowed and Something Blue. I have not read the others by her, but those were funny and light reading.

I really liked 'Goodnight Nobody' by Jennifer Weiner (she wrote 'In HER sHOES' Which was made into a movie with Cameron Diaz)..all her books are great IMO

Also I read 'Are you there vodka? Its me Chelsea' by Chelsea Handler....so funny

The Host written by the author of the Twilight series is very good. So far there is only the one book but she plans to write sequels. I loved Twilight but I liked the Host even more.

read the Shopaholic books if you havn't done so already. They are really funny and are quick reads.

I love these two books. They kind of go together.

Her other ones are good too, but these are the best!

Jodi Picoult books are great as well

My Sister's Keeper
(about a daughter that was born in order to help keep her sister alive- great story)

Nineteen Mintues
(about a school shooting- very very good long but good)

The Tenth Circle
(there was a lifetime movie about this book- book was better)

The Pact

Picture Perfect

Second Glance

Perfect Match
