I love the shatter me series 😭

i think this chat is such a good idea because i think it's so much harder to find good books for tweens than it was 5(-ish) years ago, everything is so mature these days it's crazy (I KNOW I SOUND LIKE A BOOMER)

frrr, i am such a baby but smvt lowkey makes me so uncomfortable and its so hard to find fantasy books with a silly little romance

i 100% agree i cannot read smvt anymore, i'm so over it

Literally tho

ok so if we r going fantasy keeper of the lost cities harry potter percy jackson the school for good and evil the land of stories

but also i recently read such a good realistic fiction book called the 10th mistake of hank hooperman and it made me cry for like 19 whole minssss so defo check that out

out of my mind, Harry Potter, Land of Stories for younger tweens (loved these)

for older ones The Lunar Chronicles maybe?? i recently read it and found it too simple/boring but maybe it’s better for a younger group

OMG anyone who read out of my mind out of my heart and out of my dream? All by Sharon M. Draper. I cannot stop reading these and there is a Disney+ movie about it. You need to check it out.

The Sisters Grimm

It is soooo good and it has a cute romance between the fmc and the annoying sidekick that only really comes up in the last few books
