Hello, fellow nerdfighter here, thanks for the book suggestion, I'll definitely read the book!hartsocktr wrote:Until recently I would have told you John Green. However, I recently stumbled upon Patrick Ness's "Knife of Never Letting Go," During a reading challenge and I have to say I've completely changed my mind. Don't get me wrong I love Green's writing (Nerdfighter for life!) but, Ness's ability to write an unreliable narrator blew me away! He purposefully misspelled words because of the accent of the narrator and also because the narrator is practically illiterate. That would usually bug me but, the story and characters were so intriguing that I didn't mind the errors at all. Honestly, it made the story more endearing! If you've never read any of his books, I suggest you do!

Also always look for titles from Laurie Halse Andersen when I am in search of a new read!

- Latest Review: "30th Century: Escape" by Mark Kingston Levin
While I am sure I might catch some flack for listing Stephenie Meyer as a favorite author, I generally LOVE her books. A lot of people complain about her writing, but I always found it hard to put down one of her books. While some view her work as depicting relationships in a negative or contrived way, I always like the way she wrote her characters and the thoughts behind their actions seemed concrete to me.
I appreciate Suzanne Collins and her writing because it is so avidly fast paced and rich in context. I loved how she wrote Katniss, and to this day Katniss is one of my all time favorite characters. The pacing in The Hunger Games is pretty fast and No sooner than I started the first book was I on to the next one. The feelings of the characters, the absurdity and reality that she portrays makes it hard for me to put down. It's one of the only book series I have read over and over again.
