Chat/Discussion of books we've read, Book Recommendations/Suggestions...

Re: Chat/Discussion of books we've read, Book Recommendations/Suggestions...

Here are my top recommendations (for now):

1) Daughter of Smoke and Bone Series (YA: Angels) - The writing is just beautiful! My favoritest(?) of them all. :lol:

2) Lux Series (YA: Aliens) - DAEMON BLACK <-- That's all the reason you need to pick this up. Trust me, you won't regret it. Hahaha

3) Kate Daniels Series (UF: Fae, Shapeshifters, Vamps, etc.) - Most badass heroine I know. Highly recommended for urban fantasy readers. (Plus, I bet you'll fall in love with Curran)

4) Fever Series (UF/PNR: Fae) - Another really good series for UF lovers, although this has more steamy scenes, and it involves the Fae.

5) Lunar Chronicles (YA: Cyborgs) - My favorite modern day fairy tale retellings. Checkidawt!

6) Blood of Eden (YA: Dystopia, Vampires) - Some of you may be skeptical about vampire books but this series is a must-read. Dystopian feel.. :) From the same author who wrote the Iron Fey series.

7) Angelfall (YA: Dystopia, Angels) - Very easy read but watch out for the cliffhanger! Raffe <3 And Paige. T___T

8) Lumatere Chronicles (YA/Fantasy) - I super duper loved this story. Ang ganda talaga ng writing ni Marchetta! Great mix of adventure & romance!

9) Covenant (YA) - First book will remind you of Vampire Academy but it has its own charm by the second book.. and by the third you'll be rooting for either Seth or Aiden... I'll read Apollyon by October before Sentinel is released. :P

10) Queen's Thief (YA) - You know there are books where you can see the plot twist a mile away? This ain't one of them. This whole series blew my mind. Don't expect too much romance though, Gen is more than enough to keep you on your toes.

:thumbsup:

Happy reading, all! :)

P/S: Lately, I've been reading a lot of non-YA books. I really liked Wallbanger and Tangled. :D

And! And!... READ WAIT FOR YOU by J. Lynn (Jennifer Armentrout) Nakakainlove si Cam :wub: Kala nyo si Daemon lang ang nakakakilig? Think again! Hahaha

Add me on GR esp. if we have similar tastes in books! ;)

Hmmm ngayon lang ulit ako nagawi dito sa symbianize. Nice recos :D. I've read a few of the books you've mentioned and I agree. They are must-read books imo. :thumbsup:

Re: Chat/Discussion of books we've read, Book Recommendations/Suggestions...

Bookmark ko muna toh. :excited: Salamat! :thumbsup:
 
Re: Chat/Discussion of books we've read, Book Recommendations/Suggestions...

Just finished reading Wallbanger by Alice Clayton... I am definitely recommending this to those into romantic comedies... I really enjoyed reading it.:thumbsup:

Thank you for this recommendation! I'm reading it now. :yipee:
 
Re: Chat/Discussion of books we've read, Book Recommendations/Suggestions...

Maganda pong basahin 'yung A Thousand Splendid Suns ni Khaled Hosseini.
Tungkol po 'yung sa mga babae sa Afghanistan nung panahon ng Soviet invasion hanggang sa pamumuno ng taliban. Kahit hindi ka po tiga dun, after mo mabasa 'to, lalo mong rerespetuhin lahat ng babae sa mundo, nanay mo man o kasintahan o kaibigan o makasalubong mo lang. Dabest po ito para sa lahat. :thumbsup:
 
Re: Chat/Discussion of books we've read, Book Recommendations/Suggestions...

Meron po ba ritong ebook or pdf copy ng "The Count of Monte Cristo"? May nagrecommend kasi. Pwede rin sana yung yung movie link or downloand :pray:
 
Re: Chat/Discussion of books we've read, Book Recommendations/Suggestions...

Hello! Share ko lang po favorite books po.
I'm a sucker for paranormal romance. So eto po ang list ko...
1. Fever Series - Karen Marie Moning
My favorite series ever. This is the best i've read and so far unmatched pa din xa for me. And Jericho Barrons is the ultimate alpha male for me. I'm really glad Moning decided to add 5 new books s series and i'm so waiting for the 7th book.

2. Immortals After Dark - Kresley Cole
My next favorite books! This series is a lot of fun. The lines are witty and the characters are crazy. Especially Nix! I've just read the 13th book (Macrieve) and i feel sad kasi matagal pa irerelease ang next book.

3. Psy-Changeling - Nalini Singh
Of all the Paranormal worlds i've read about, Singh's changeling world is definitely where i dream of living in. This series is really good and the latest book (heart of obsidian) blew me away! I just love this series.

4. Alien Huntress - Gena Showalter
Another fun to read series. Lots of witty lines and nice love stories. Although with a bit steamy and explicit love scenes (knowing Showalter? Lol). Still very enjoyable.

5. The League Series - Sherrilyn Kenyon
I love this series too. The stories have some common plots (all the heroes have really tragic and brutal pasts) but different enough for you to enjoy each story. The latest book is very nice but shocking (an M2M Romance!). Hehe...

6. Lords Of The Underworld - Gena Showalter
i'm currently reading this series. I'm on book 5 now and the series keeps getting better as it progresses. It was so-so at first and i was about to stop on the 2nd book. Good thing i continued kasi paganda sya ng paganda.

7. Trek mi Qan - Jaid Black
This series is fun! Even hilarious at some points. This is futuristic/erotica so expect for lots of sex scenes. But beside that the stories are really romantic and nice.

i also love historical romance and my favorite is Judith Mcnaught. I actually have paperback copies of all her books. I also read nora roberts. I love her short series. Especially those touched with some magic.:D

P.s. Pa add po sa goodreads.

Thanks! :excited:

I so agree with you..its a very good book highly recommended for mother and daughter readers...the book is both terrible and beautiful. Maganda din ang The Kite Runner ni Hosseini specially the first part nung mga kids pa sila..sarap bumalik sa childhood years mo

Hi, if you like Dan Brown books then you will like books made by James Rollins, hahaha. In my opinion, I think James Rollins is the better author :praise: Please do read it if you have the time, I highly recommend Black Order, Judas Strain and Altar of Eden if you're more of a science "nerd" and Map of Bones, Last Oracle and Doomsday Key if you like History better than Science :thumbsup:

Very funny talaga ang wallbanger, can i ask ur recommendation of similar book?:pray:
 
Re: Chat/Discussion of books we've read, Book Recommendations/Suggestions...

sa mga nagtatanong bakit dumalang ang mga post dito eh dahil masyadong nahumaling ang mga regular posters sa Goodreads kaya di na masyadong nagpopost dito :)

anyways, I recently read and finished Laura Bickle The Hallowed Ones and its sequel, The Outside.

if you are into Amish + Vampire (the scary ones) + discussion on faith (hindi naman super duper), i highly recommend these books. the love story is very mild lang. the story revolve's on one person's growth in a post (not really) apocalyptic world.
 
Re: Chat/Discussion of books we've read, Book Recommendations/Suggestions...

Very funny talaga ang wallbanger, can i ask ur recommendation of similar book?:pray:

Tangled by Emma Chase is way funnier, IMO :beat:

Chocolate series by Tara Sivec is also funny but may offend some readers.

Many people also like R.L. Mathewson books such as her Neighbor from Hell series. (It's funny but for me some scenes are exaggerated much).

Jennifer Crusie for me has a weird sense of humor, but I do find it quite funny :)

Check out goodreads or fantasticfiction.co.uk for the complete title and listing of their books.
