Allie | 30 comments Ok so I just finsished Insurgent (Divergent 2) and loved it, but now I'm kind of lost and don't know what to read next. I love the Dystopian series (Hunger Games, Matched, Delirium, etc.) but also like girly Sarah Dessen type books lol so if you have any reccomendations please tell me!

Ashes by Ilsa J. Bick and Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater were both really good. I also love the ones you have listed, so you should like these.

Crystal Gillespie (crystal_gillespie) | 6 comments I just got done reading Die for Me and I loved it! I have also read Delirium and Pandemonium and loved them so you should like that one. I have also read Wither and Fever which happen to be my favorite trilogy so far! If you haven't read them I would definitely recommend them!

Oh I ordered that one from the library. I looks really good!


message 7: by Allie (new)

Allie | 30 comments Thanks Crystal I already read Delirium and Pandemonium but that other one sounds really good. Has anyone read "Across the Universe"? It looks pretty interesting.

Beatrice (beatricemasalunga) Kissed by an Angel (Kissed by an Angel, #1-3) by Elizabeth Chandler
Here's my review to give you a bit of the story background http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...
this is a good book. Such an amazing love story and a bit mystery.

Allie | 30 comments Kissed by an Angel looks really good but I think it might be one of thoose books where I read it, cry uncontorollably and question my existence for the rest of the week :)

YES Across the Universe is SO GOOD, but in a different way than Delirium/Divergent/etc.

message 23: by [deleted user] (new)

You guys gotta read Clockwork Prince!!!RIGHT NOW! I demand it.


message 24: by Charlotte (new)

Charlotte  (charlottep) Read Legend by Marie Lu!!!!!! It's kinda like Divergent and is AMAZING!!!!!! PLEASE READ IT!!!!


message 25: by Charlotte (new)

Charlotte  (charlottep) I also really love the Shiver series by Maggie Stiefvater, it's kind of like Twilight, but much better written and a better story line, and just better in general


message 26: by [deleted user] (new)

Love Shiver!!!!


message 27: by Allie (new)

Allie | 30 comments Yeah I read the first Shiver book and had no desire to read the second. It was boring to me. I guess it's just personal preference.


message 28: by [deleted user] (new)

Not boring to me!! :D


message 29: by Candace (new)

Candace (osucandace) I read Maggie Stiefvater's Lament: The Faerie Queen's Deception and didn't care for it. I never read Shiver, should I give her a 2nd chance?

I justed finished both Divergent and Insurgent and I loved them both. My other new favorite is Phoenix Angel by Amanda Gerry


message 32: by Sapir (new)

Sapir | 17 comments Read The Last Song. It's a bit like Sarah Dessen's books and it made me cry ><
As a dystopian, I recommend reading Wither. I just couldn't put this book down... It's one of my favorite books ever.


message 33: by [deleted user] (new)

OMG I love Wither!!!

That's so funny. I downloaded the last song this afternoon and then like 10 minutes later I saw you reccomend it. Thanks for the dystopian reccomendations but I've been reading so many lately I just need a tearjerker :)

Try Phoenix Angel by Amanda Gerry . It's an urban fantasy with a totally sassy heroine.
