New book suggestions

Post by KassC »

Hi everyone,

My name is Kass and I'm new on here! I am, of course, a fellow book lover and am needing a new book suggestion to read. My favourite genre is romance but I love reading in general so will be happy with suggestions from other genres. I am in the middle of reading The Outlander Series by Diana Gabaldan and am up to the 4th book but would like a bit of a break from this series.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Check out A Soldier of the Great War by Mark Helprin. It's long and on a grand scale, but an amazing love story nonetheless.

I have been reading Wither, Fever and now Sever By Lauren De Stefano If you like Dystopian & Genetic alterations you should enjoy these books. I find them well written and can't wait to turn the next page. I finished Fever last night and it ended on such a cliff hanger that I had to read the first chapter of book 3 Sever, before I could go to sleep.

The Ashfall series by Mike Mullin was great! I was sorry it came to an end. I would love to see his take on another natural disaster or even how civilization progressed twenty years after . The information he provided would be a great keeper for preppers or any survivalist scenario.

If you're into romance then maybe try anything by David Nicholls, or "The Rosie Project" by Graeme Simsion :)
