The Clan of the Cave Bear. At the dawn of modern humans, a five year old girl named Ayla is orphaned by an earthquake and is adopted by a kind medicine woman in a neanderthal clan. The clan people are sexist and Ayla can't help but be her courageous, independent self and struggles growing up being a homo sapien amongst neanderthals.

That sounds good, I might read that one.

Unearthly by Cynthia Hand. That book blew me away. It's not your typical angel book, I'll say that.

The Warriors series by Erin Hunter is really great. And most of the books by Gail Carson Levine are really cool too, like Fairest and Ella Enchanted.

Awesome!!! the first one was better than the next two, but still make sure you read all three!!!

Kayla ~The Mirthful Messiah~ (Chucklevoodoos142) | 84 comments Um...Deffinatly the Night World series, Percy Jackson, Beyonder book 1, The Forbidden Game, and Letters to Emily are some of my fav's.
(The Forbidden Game is frikin' awesome though. This demon guy named Julian is trying to make the main character, Jenny, fall in love with him, so he makes them play a few 'games' where their nightmares become reality. It's SOOOO good!!!!)


message 24: by Hannah (new)

Hannah (cloveshay) What's the Forbidden Game about? I sounds cool.


Kayla ~The Mirthful Messiah~ (Chucklevoodoos142) | 84 comments Um...well there's three books (all combined in one) and each one is about a different 'game' that this demon guy named Julian makes them play. Jenny, main character, finds Julian, his (first) game, and later finds out that he loves her. So in each of the games, the prize is freedom, and a 'bonus' in the last one is getting two of their friends back. There's six people in all: Jenny, Tom, Dee, Audrey, Zach, and Michael (not counting Julian) that's about the best recap I can give...oh and in the games, if you get hurt, you hurt for real, and if you die, well....yeah.

If I were to read one book only for an entire month it would be This Lullaby, by Sarah Dessen. She's really good with dialogue, and I love Dexter. :D It's really funny, and it keeps you smiling through the whole book. That or full of suspense. ;-; I strongly recommend it.

Stevie  (stevie_l) I got a bit carried away with this recommendation but I just have so many amazing books to suggest to you all!


Everlost (Skinjacker, #1) by Neal Shusterman by Neal Shusterman
Nick and Allie don’t survive the car accident, but their souls don’t exactly get where they’re supposed to go either. Instead, they’re caught halfway between life and death, in a sort of limbo known as Everlost: a shadow of the living world. It’s a magical, yet dangerous place where bands of lost kids run wild and anyone who stands in the same place too long sinks to the center of the Earth.
Unwind (Unwind, #1) by Neal Shusterman by Neal Shusterman
In America after the Second Civil War, the Pro-Choice and Pro-Life armies came to an agreement: The Bill of Life states that human life may not be touched from the moment of conception until a child reaches the age of thirteen. Between the ages of thirteen and eighteen, however, a parent may choose to retroactively get rid of a child through a process called "unwinding." Unwinding ensures that the child's life doesn’t “technically” end by transplanting all the organs in the child's body to various recipients. Now a common and accepted practice in society, troublesome or unwanted teens are able to easily be unwound. this book follows three teens who all become runaway Unwinds: Connor, a rebel whose parents have ordered his unwinding; Risa, a ward of the state who is to be unwound due to cost-cutting; and Lev, his parents' tenth child whose unwinding has been planned since birth as a religious tithing.
Ender's Game (Ender's Saga, #1) by Orson Scott Card by Orson Scott Card
In order to develop a secure defense against a hostile alien race's next attack, government agencies breed child geniuses and train them as soldiers. A brilliant young boy, Andrew "Ender" Wiggin lives with his kind but distant parents, his sadistic brother Peter, and the person he loves more than anyone else, his sister Valentine. Peter and Valentine were candidates for the soldier-training program but didn't make the cut--young Ender is the Wiggin drafted to the orbiting Battle School for rigorous military training.
Eon Dragoneye Reborn (Eon, #1) by Alison Goodman by Alison Goodman
Sixteen-year-old Eon has a dream, and a mission. For years, he's been studying sword-work and magic, toward one end. He and his master hope that he will be chosen as a Dragoneye-an apprentice to one of the twelve energy dragons of good fortune.

But Eon has a dangerous secret. He is actually Eona, a sixteen-year-old girl who has been masquerading as a twelve-year-old boy. Females are forbidden to use Dragon Magic; if anyone discovers she has been hiding in plain sight, her death is assured.
The Knife of Never Letting Go (Chaos Walking, #1) by Patrick Ness by Patrick Ness
Todd Hewitt is the only boy in a town of men. Ever since the settlers were infected with the Noise germ, Todd can hear everything the men think, and they hear everything he thinks. Todd is just a month away from becoming a man, but in the midst of the cacophony, he knows that the town is hiding something from him -- something so awful Todd is forced to flee with only his dog, whose simple, loyal voice he hears too. With hostile men from the town in pursuit, the two stumble upon a strange and eerily silent creature: a girl. Who is she? Why wasn't she killed by the germ like all the females on New World? Propelled by Todd's gritty narration, readers are in for a white-knuckle journey in which a boy on the cusp of manhood must unlearn everything he knows in order to figure out who he truly is.
The Demon King (Seven Realms, #1) by Cinda Williams Chima by Cinda Chima
One day Han Alister catches three young wizard setting fire to the sacred mountain of Hanalea.

The amulet once belonged to the Demon King, who nearly destroyed the world a millennium ago. With a magical piece so powerful at stake, Han knows that the Bayars will stop at nothing to get it back.

Meanwhile, Princess Raisa ana’Marianna has her own battle to fight. She’s just returned to court after three years of riding and hunting with her father’s family. Raia aspires to be like Hanalea, the legendary warrior queen who killed the Demon King and saved the world. But it seems that her mother has other plans for her—plans that include a suitor who goes against everything the Queendom stands for.
The Fault in Our Stars by John Green by John Green
Despite the tumor-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel’s story is about to be completely rewritten.
Blood Red Road (Dust Lands, #1) by Moira Young Moira Young
Saba has spent her whole life in Silverlake, a dried-up wasteland ravaged by constant sandstorms. The Wrecker civilization has long been destroyed, leaving only landfills for Saba and her family to scavenge from. That's fine by her, as long as her beloved twin brother Lugh is around. But when four cloaked horsemen capture Lugh, Saba's world is shattered, and she embarks on a quest to get him back.
The Amulet of Samarkand (Bartimaeus, #1) by Jonathan Stroud by Jonathan Stroud
When the 5000-year-old djinni Bartimaeus is summoned by Nathaniel, a young magician's apprentice, he expects to have to do nothing more taxing than a little levitation or a few simple illusions. But Nathaniel is a precocious talent and has something rather more dangerous in mind: revenge. Against his will, Bartimaeus is packed off to steal the powerful Amulet of Samarkand from Simon Lovelace, a master magician of unrivalled ruthlessness and ambition. Before long, both djinni and apprentice are caught up in a terrifying flood of magical intrigue, murder and rebellion.

I just read Saving Francesca and I loved it. Right now i'm reading "Pathfinder" and "Anna and the French Kiss" and I'm really enjoying both of them. I borrows the synopsises from Amazon.com :)

Ingo (Ingo, #1) by Helen Dunmore Tide Knot (Ingo, #2) by Helen Dunmore The Deep (Ingo, #3) by Helen Dunmore The Crossing of Ingo (Ingo, #4) by Helen Dunmore
Series - in that order. Basically, its about a girl who lives with her mum and brother and sees her brother speaking to a girl in the sea. Her Dad was fascinated about the sea but one day, on his boat, he is thrown overboard. Everyone but Sapphire and her brother (Conor) believe he's dead. Its amazing and so, so sad!

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon Wow. That's all I can say.

I'll say more later!
