What's the best book you've read in the last month? And... go!

13 Reasons Why by Jay Asher. I felt conflicted about reading this but it was amazing. Very well written abs thought provoking.

Irish Blood by Brendan Sean Sullivan. I could have done without some of the foul language, but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

The best would have to be "Doctor Sleep," by Stephen King. It is a continuation of the book "The Shining." It was descriptive and challenging to read. The young brave boy Doc is not so young or brave many years after the events at the Overlook.

Under The Never Sky series by Veronica Rossi. This was one of the most amazing YA Dystopia series I have read in a really long time.

I love 13 Reasons Why! I'm glad you enjoyed it, as well.
World War Z by Max Brooks is an awesome read, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. I think that Looking for Alaska by John Green is also a great one.

I just finished reading the Under the Never Sky series by Veronica Rossi. There are three books in the series and I thought they were all entertaining. I think I enjoyed the first book the best. There are a lot of great characters and the story keeps you wanting to read more.

The best book I read this last month was The Broken World Book One: Children of Another God by T.C. Southwell. I gave this book 4 out of 4 stars. It held me on the edge of my seat in more than one place. If I didn't have to go to work I would have read the book in one sitting.

Pines by Blake Crouch. It's the first book in the Wayward Pines series and arguably the best book of the series in my mind.

I finally decided to read the Hunger Games trilogy last month and I have to say I enjoyed every second reading all three books. By the way I read all three in two days, so I kind of consider it as my "one book"...
