Day 03: The best book you've read in the last 12 months.
Holy crap I have to think about the piles and piles and piles of books that I read in the last year without my handy dandy list to guide me. Actually nothing really sticks out. I have been reading a lot of young adult series and none of them are really new been enjoying the fantasy books and the two or three series that really have captured my attention are:
the Pendragon Series by D.J. McHale: Time Hoping Hero who must save the world written in journal form. Love it! I love the idea of the travelers and the flumes and the different worlds out there. I mean who doesn't look out at the stars and wonder from time to time what else is out there.
The Percy Jackson Series by Rick Riordian - these books are funny and its light and though there are some heavy themes in there its all very easy to digest. I can jump in and jump out easy peasy into that world.
The Fablehaven Series by Brandon Mull: I am not going to lie it took me a while to get into the first book but once I was in I was totally engrossed by the story line.
The Artemis Fowl Series: OKay it was my second forray into that mad world of the fey and the pint sized evil genius that first tries to manipulate these fantastical creatures then befriends them. But its been a fun revisit.
