Hey guys. As you know me, I am the Percy Jackson nut-log of all of YWS, so I realized that I need to expand my horizons in books. So, please recommend your favorite books to me. Thanks!

You should try the Gone series by Michael Grant!

if you haven't already and if you are up to it I urge you to read the Harry Potter books! I'm in both the harry potter fandomand the percy jackson fandom. to me those stories go hand in hand. although they are very differentand unique in their own way :D
I also recomend the Game of Thrones series :)

I've always enjoyed Dragon Slippers by Jessica Day George... I'm not sure if it's something you'd like though. :-P If you do read that and like it, then it's continued in two other books... I guess it is a series... not really though...

That's the only book I feel I can suggest. I'm in the same boat, I need to find more good books! XD

Anything by Brandon Sanderson. Seriously. I recommend starting with Mistborn or The Rithmatist.
We're all stories in the end.

I think you, @Deanie and I are like the Three Book Nerd Musketeers of YWS.

Ohhhh I'm hopelessly devoted to the Maze Runner series!!! Who else in here has read it? I really liked the first book, well of course that's The Maze Runner that just became a movie last September 2014. It took me a whole month to finish the series, a week each for the first three books. Hehe the prequel took me 2 weeks, wasn't as exciting as the first three because Newt wasn't in there (bias!!!! hahaha) but after I've read the prequel, it's like everything made sense. :D Yeah, I love the Maze Runner books! :smt007

Some of my favorites are:
The Sight and its sequel Fell by David Clement-Davies (I probably misspelled his name there)
The Maximum Ride series by James Patterson (You either love it or hate it, I know, but in sixth grade it was my absolute favorite so I've still got a huge soft spot for it)
War Horse by *insert name I forgot here*
Number the Stars by Lois Lowry (It's kind of a lower level read, but once again it's one of those books I read in middle school that has stayed with me)
Yep that's all I can think of now! I really need to get back into reading...

Favorite books?

Oh, that's hard. I don't read many fiction books, soo I'm not well versed in that area. However, some books have struck me in the past as seriously awesome.

~Lord of the Rings-J.R.R Tolkien

~The Sea Wolf-Jack London

~Hunger Games (MOCKINGJAY <33333)

Those three are the only ones that have truly stuck me as something good. Other books have stuck me in the past, of course, but these are the best. *is seriously not a reader of fiction. Kinda reads the dry, boring books*
In Truth Unity,
In Doubt Liberty,
