*"Raise your hand if twilight saved your reading life."* Me: Alone and raises my hand. *"Raise your hand if you have ever been victimized for liking Twilight."* Me: Stands up and raises two hands.
I wish I could relate to this, I want to read twilight so bad 😔 ...I have all of the books but my mom won’t let me read them even though I’ll be fifteen in a week 🤷🏼♀️
@@hannafaith1160 wtf that sucks ....you download them on vk.com or you spiral down into fanfiction. There is always the library too, you can sit and read there hell get friend to check them out and then you read them at school so your mom doesn't see hehe if there is a will there is a way 😉
It does make sense. Like for me, i’m not sure if I like The Selection series and even America Singer or not. Most of the time I don’t like it, but I enjoyed reading it cause it’s just really entertaining.
Favorite Series in no particular order: 1. The Infernal Devices 2.The Mortal Instruments 3. Falling Kingdoms 4. Hunger Games 5. Percy Jackson 6.Throne of Glass 7. Divergent 8. Stalking Jack the Ripper 9.Harry Potter 10. Shatter Me
+Julia Krantz Yes! i loved the first book, not my favourite one but it really pulled me into the shadowhunters world :D I cant spoil you much though im on book 4 at the moment.
+Julia Krantz omigosh ur so right! I'm like the only one amongst my friends that has read any of the mortal instruments books. I love them so much I don't feel like sharing the series. XDD MINE MINE MINEEE I start reading the books I don't stop, I've reached a point where my mom forbids me from starting the next book. THough that didn't stop me from starting the fourth book.. I JUST HAVE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!
I legit guessed the list of books but not in the right order. I also included a few extras I thought you'd mention like Legend, Stephanie Perkins books, and Divergent
i only have the lunar chronicles in series and next is burn for burn trilogy BEC I ALWAY S CHOOSE TO READ STAND ALONE AND IM MAD IF I CHOOSE TO READ A SERIES BEC BOOKS ARE EXPENSIVE IN MY COUNTRY OKAY
IM READING THE LUNAR CHRONICLES AND I LITERALLY STARTED CLAPPING WHEN I SAW IT IN YOUR LIST LIKE IM NOT KIDDING. IM SITTING HERE HOLDING CINDER IN MY LAP😂😂😂
My Twilight days have come and gone. But like Christine said, the Twilight series was what got me hooked back on reading. I may not be into it anymore, but I'll always be grateful that it saved me and gave me that push to start reading again.
Read all YA books you can when you are 12, that's what I am doing. Then, you don't need to worry about stupid adult responsibilities for another 6 years.
Annabeth June Inej Jackson Wing Brekker I started reading YA when I was 10. I am almost 13. I freaking love YA books! The first YA book I read was Pretty Little Liars by Sara Shepard and ignited the reading fire in me and now I love reading! I used to hate reading but not anymore!
I've read more YA than most kids my age (i think) and I'm really liking it. (Including Hunger Games, Divergent, The Lunar Chronicles and I'm planning to read more after I finish the Percy Jackson books) The only thing I'm worried about is not experiencing the books in the best possible way since I might not really be able to relate. But, and this is regarding Izzy Bonito's comment, I'm not really interested in contemporary, more so fantasy so I'm hoping it won't be a problem. BTW, I'm 11 years old.
I guessed them all, just not in order (except the TOP 5, I nailed those)! BUT ANYWAY, I'm proud of myself :D!!! I've been following you for three years now and this "game" made me feel like I know you well (maybe I just know your taste in books, buuuut I still feel like I know you a little, yay!) AND OMG, I'll definitely join BOOKSPLOSION this month!
+Sutherland Isabelle you HAVE to try again!!!! Trust me I read the Lightning Thief and didn't like it but then a year later I reread it and it was SO. GOOD. Please please please give it another chance
*WE DEMIGODS RECOMMEND.* You should really read Percy Jackson. Then you can either read Heroes of Olympus after that or the Kane Chronicles but I read Heroes of Olympus before Kane Chronicles. Kane Chronicles had a reference to Heroes of Olympus because they took place at the same time. Then after that you can either read Trials of Apollo or Magnus Chase. I read Trials of Apollo first though, and I'm on Magnus Chase and the Hammer of Thor. Good luck on your journey of a lifetime and Rick trolling you by making the biggest cliffhangers ever mi amigo.
I read the first 200 pages or so of the first volume, but I couldn't get into it. I didn't care much for the characters and the humor was very forced for me. Which I really do not like. :)
Actually read the worst witch series which basically inspired the whole Harry potter series they both have magical schools and both have mean potions teachers and both have similar characters and stuff . HP is a rip off
MY GUESSES 10. The hunger games 9. VA 8. The darkest minds 7. Heroes of Olympus 6. Cinder ( WINTER IS SO SOON ) 5. Throne of glass 4. Percy Jackson 3. Cassandra Clare TMI. TID 2. Twilight 1. Harry Potter
OMG I love Cassandra Clare she's my favorite author I just found out about you today but my top 3 fav book series are infernal devices, iron trial and the following one to it, and finally mortal instruments ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Favorite series for meh: percy jackson & the olympians, heroes of olympus, trials of apollo, kane chronicles, magnus chase and deh gods of asgard, duh, percy jacksons greek gods, percy jacksons greek heroes, well those greek gods amd heroes arent a series (i think) but basically everything of rick riordans books are meh favorites, 🙂
Zachb- 153 I love rick's works so much! My favorite is Percy Jackson and the Olympians! I would explain why but I cannot put all of my love for the series into words. I would HIGHLY MOST DEFINETLY recommend this to anyone.
Our book tastes are really similar. There's only one or two on this list that I haven't liked or I haven't read yet. In other words, I agree with this list!
Sydbug Nano Yes, I found all of them fantastic! Well, just a few of the books I feel could have been better. What annoys me is when an author comes up with an absolutely amazing plot, but then does not write a book that's as good as it could have been.
Literally feeling depressed all day, inwardly sighing as I open UA-cam, and then I see your video. Waiting for it to load even gives me some happiness, let alone watching it. Thank you so much, your channel is the only thing making me happy at the moment, and waiting for the next one gives me something to look forward to. I feel like I know you as a friend, talking about books, which is the only beautiful escape from everyday life for me. As Will Herondale says: 'It was books that made me feel that perhaps I was not completely alone'. Well, the same applies for you too :)
***** I don't really mind slow books...but the fact that the plot in Insurgent is more complex is part of why I loved it so much. And it really another side of Tris in the way Tris was experiencing PTSD etc. I also really think that the whole book, well the whole trilogy really conveys a really good message not just in the importance of family but also what sacrifice really means and a lot of other things... I think the reason why people didn't like Allegiant was that it wasn't as action-packed as Divergent or whatever and I get that but the book really (as I said) conveys a message that's really moving in a way... And yeah, that plot twist at the end if Divergent was fantastic. The cliffhanger at the end of Insurgent left me reeling and flailing all over the place. The end of Allegiant left me drowning in my own tears... And what more could I ask for? That's all I want from books, to feel. Not fantastic mind blowing plots, or heart pounding action, as long as a book makes me feel feelings then it certainly did its job.
Percy Jackson is one of my favorite character's of all time and I haven't read the last book in the Heroes of Olympus series because so many of my friends have said that it's a letdown so don't feel bad about not liking that book. From what i've heard the amount of hype outshines the book. Apparently it was a good book but there was far too much hype and it coudn't live up to the hype.
I got a lot of those, but only the top three in the right order. My top ten list is as follows: 10. Septimus Heap by Angie Sage 9. The Kane Chronicles 8. The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel by Michael Scott 7. The Chronicles of the Imaginarium Geographica by James A. Owen 6. The Mortal Instruments 5. Percy Jackson and the Olympians 4. The Heroes of Olympus 3. The Infernal Devices 2. The Bartimaeus Trilogy by Jonathan Stroud 1. Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy Skulduggery Pleasant is perfection. Everyone needs to read it. EVERYONE. It's about this girl called Stephanie who inherits her uncle's fortune after he dies (much to the outrage of her aunt Beryl and Uncle Fergus, and to the bemusement of everyone else) then she gets attacked in her home and is rescued by a mysterious man. During this, she discovers that magic is real. She then apprentices under the man, Skulduggery Pleasant, a four-hundred year-old dapper, snarky skeleton detective. The comedy is perfect, the horror is just the right level of creepy, Landy fucks with your emotions and sanity. Bartimaeus also needs to be read. It's a series about a snarky djinni who's summoned by a boy to steal a powerful amulet, thus begins their relationship. It explores the themes of slavery, morality, isolation, dehumanisation, class, oppression, the corruption of power, and what love really is, all while being absolutely hilarious. The Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini is quickly becoming a favourite, but I can't judge it until I've read the ending and I'm only about a quarter of the way through book three, Brisingr.
Throne of glass should've been closer to the top....I agree with a lot of you choices though for your top 10. You say phenomenal a lot in this episode.....
Mine (in order) are Harry Potter, Twilight, Lorien Legacies, Maze Runner, Hunger Games, Perry Jackson, Uglies (and a few others which I read when I was younger but still can't seem to take off my list). It seems that we have similar tastes bc any of the books that are on your list but aren't on mine, I haven't actually read. So I have a lot of catching up to do lol. (also you've just gained a new subscriber woo)
When you got to Number 4 and said "Four, four, four." I thought you were making a reference to the character Four from Divergent and I thought that was gonna be your pick...
Rather old video but I'm going. To say the books before you say them Throne of glass Game of thrones Harry potter City of bones The hungry games Lady midnight Raven king The crown A court of thrones and rose I just looked up popular books and pick which ones I could remember that she liked.
eduardo wolf you just named sequels, this is a favourite series one and if you know christine you know she doesn't like the selection series, btw it is called the hunger games not the hungry games, and if you were a fan you would also know she said she hasnt read game of thrones
So I was in a bad reading slump that has been heavily going on since May of last year. I was having a lot of trouble, and I have a copy of Throne of Glass. So I took the risk of maybe sinking me deeper into the slump but it surprisingly saved my reading life! I started TOG in late January and I'm reading Heir of Fire right now. Seriously thank you Christine I bought TOG because of you!
I agree with you. I love Cassandra Clare's books, and they are the best books ever written. Both Infernal Devices, and Mortal Instruments. The first Dark Artifacts book (sequel to Mortal Instruments) comes out on March 8, 2016. I AM SOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!! She knows how to wrap up a good book series!!!
9/12 ain't bad! I just didn't get The Darkest Minds, Vampire Academy, or Mistborn... which are all the ones I haven't read and wouldn't have thought of...
I started following you recently, so I wasn't sure what would be on your list... but I knew Harry Potter would be #1! :) I haven't read many of these series yet - thanks for the recommendations! When I was a teen and young adult (many moons ago), I read The Riftwar Saga by Raymond E. Feist, and The Empire Trilogy by Feist and Janny Wurts. Together, these books make up the Riftwar Cycle... and they are amazing!!! Have you ever read them? If not, you should!! The Riftwar starts when a rift forms between two worlds and connects them. The Riftwar Saga follows Pug, an orphan who learns how to be a magician during a time of war in his world of Midkemia (the first book is aptly called Magician). People from the other world, Kelewan, come through and attack Pug's world. All the action in The Riftwar Saga happens in his land. Then you start reading The Empire Trilogy, which takes place on the other world! It follows Mara, a young woman who must lead her house when her father and brother die. She starts out meek and grows into an amazing leader! The differences between the two worlds is so fascinating! I loved these books when they first came out back in 1982-1993, and I highly recommend them. :) This is one of the series on my personal all-time favorite series list. Since you enjoy magic and fantasy in general, I think you'd love these books! =)
My top 3: 1. The Divergent Series 2. The Divergent Series 3. The Divergent Series! I can't read something different because i just in love with those books!!!!
My top book series in no particular order is Percy jackson and the olympians, heroes of Olympus, Harry Potter, delirium, Divergent, hunger games, and I think thats all
SHADOWHUNTERS/MORTAL INSTRUMENTS FANDOM WHERE U AT?!?! i realized she did this before Lady Midnight came out cuz LM is the best book ever and the shadowhunter chronicles should have been 1!!!
The way you see Harry Potter is the way I see Percy Jackson like those books I read and I was the same age as Percy in every book while reading then and I feel you! I get that feeling and it's amazing!
The Waterfire saga is awesome! I feel like there isn't enough love going around book tube for this series. I'm really excited for the last one in June!
I love everything by Rick Riordan fight me. 5. Trials Of Apollo 4. Kane Chronicles 3. Magnus Chase And The Gods Of Asgard 2. Percy Jackson And The Olympians 1. The Heroes Of Olympus
like not that anything is wrong with twilight (I also enjoy it!) but the fact that throne of glass is higher just says so much about how much you love it!! :D
infernal devices >> dark artifices >> mortal instruments i love cassandra clare and the entire shadowhunter universe but the plot and characters in tid are some of my favorite ever and i love it so so much omg
I'm not doing the honorable mentions 1. Twilight 2. Harry Potter 3. The mortal instruments 4. Percy Jackson and the Olympians 5. Divergent trilogy 6. The hunger games 7. The lunar chronicles 8. Shatter me trilogy 9. The throne of glass books ( I don't know what the series is called)
I only guessed 3 , thron of glass , twilight , and Harry Potter . I'm new at reading books , and I am at queen of shadows , and can't wait to see your book review , I almost watched the spoiler section , but thank god I controlled my self , almost 😂😂😂
+polandbananasBOOKS you should read the land of stories series, it consists of four books, the land of stories, the land of stories the enchantrsses return, the land of stories a grimm warning, and the land of stories beyond the kingdoms
IM BETTING ON: Twilight the mortal instruments the infernal devices harry potter percy jackson ruby red the vampire academy the darkest minds the fifth wave lunar chronicals
you don't have to if you don't want to. I read the mortal instruments and than the infernal devices so no. you just start to fill in the plot holes as you read the infernal devices.
YOU GO GIRL! I raised my hand so high for those questions! I honestly believe that I became such an avid reader because of Twilight. It literally opened up this world I never knew, amazing. So many people judge me but I ask them "did you read it thoug" and of course no they didn't. Don't judge my book without even opening it up. Nono. ♡ thanks christine for relating to me, yet again~
lol I want to get you a box of energy drinks and see how hyper you are lmao. You should check out House of Night, The chronicles of Nick, and Dark Hunters series. They are awesome although there are quite a few books.
Haha, you haven't gotten to the part, have you? You realize that he's actually a selfish and arrogant fuckboi. Sorry to ruin your dreams. I hate him so much.
the lunar chronicles didnt really stick with me, i got bored with it really quickly which is a shame because so many people love it and i cant connect with them on it
It is a great series to read if done right. During a holiday when you can binge read until you get into it properly. I had to re-read Cinder so many times and I got further and further each time and then suddenly I was done and begging for Scarlet😂
That moment when your favorite book series ends and you think you have nothing to live for...
Jeena Mathew which is?
Sausan xx The Legend Trilogy
Jeena Mathew OMG LEGEND TRILOGY YAS
Jeena Mathew OMG you feel meee you just ahhh

CarmelBear I
It does make sense. Like for me, i’m not sure if I like The Selection series and even America Singer or not. Most of the time I don’t like it, but I enjoyed reading it cause it’s just really entertaining.
I felt the same. I don’t like the plot, characters, the writing, but it was really entertaining. It’s kinda how I feel about the selection series.

RIP earbud users
I'm a guy and I read The Twilight Saga last year in 6th grade. Right now I'm reading Life and Death. I get made fun of a lot for liking twilight.
Dude, I've read twilight as well. No one gives a shit when you get older. Plus the series wasn't too bad.
+Ayrton Bello There's nothing wrong with reading Twilight and he can read and like whatever he wants.
I'm in 6th and reading life and death as well. They are very good books. I definitely thought she would have put twilight as her #1 though
My Twilight days have come and gone. But like Christine said, the Twilight series was what got me hooked back on reading. I may not be into it anymore, but I'll always be grateful that it saved me and gave me that push to start reading again.
+Garrett Coggin Respect. tell them that they can fuck off cuz obviously they haven't read it if they didn't love it. ;)
Who's pumped for the trials of Apollo?
+Scotty watts EVERYONE!!! =D
MEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!

Harry Potter is my top. That won't change. Fight me if you disagree.
Read all YA books you can when you are 12, that's what I am doing. Then, you don't need to worry about stupid adult responsibilities for another 6 years.
Kaz Katrina I started reading YA when I was 13 and I've read so much YA now including all the books in this video and so much more
Kaz Katrina but many of them become much more meaningful as you grow older (mainly contemporary novels)
Annabeth June Inej Jackson Wing Brekker I started reading YA when I was 10. I am almost 13. I freaking love YA books! The first YA book I read was Pretty Little Liars by Sara Shepard and ignited the reading fire in me and now I love reading! I used to hate reading but not anymore!

Marlies Veenstra yes! i'm on the 3rd book of bloodlines (the indigo spell) and i'm looking the series so far.

Vampire Academy was my first real love.
I'm really hoping The Infernal Devices and The Mortal Instruments are close to the top

I was expecting to see the divergent trilogy
2nd and 3rd book were not as good as the first
+Juan Ibarra Am I like the only person who thought Insurgent was actually good?? like I actually think it's better than the first one...
Red_Queen_of_Shadow-Hunters And_Crows it was good but not as good as the first.
***** I don't really mind slow books...but the fact that the plot in Insurgent is more complex is part of why I loved it so much. And it really another side of Tris in the way Tris was experiencing PTSD etc. I also really think that the whole book, well the whole trilogy really conveys a really good message not just in the importance of family but also what sacrifice really means and a lot of other things...
I think the reason why people didn't like Allegiant was that it wasn't as action-packed as Divergent or whatever and I get that but the book really (as I said) conveys a message that's really moving in a way...
And yeah, that plot twist at the end if Divergent was fantastic.
The cliffhanger at the end of Insurgent left me reeling and flailing all over the place.
The end of Allegiant left me drowning in my own tears...
And what more could I ask for? That's all I want from books, to feel. Not fantastic mind blowing plots, or heart pounding action, as long as a book makes me feel feelings then it certainly did its job.
Natalie Mosko that series is my favorate
"its like my new harry Potter."
in saw on PJO book 4 it said "look no further for the new Harry Potter."
Yes, everyone should go read Vampire Academy!
*raises hand for both Twilight questions*
I also psychically raised my hands.
+Justine Torp Sounds about the same amount of time I've read them :P Hi-5's for VAFamily :)
+Justine Torp Lol you are not alone
+Stakes and Steles lolol =P
the lunar chronicles is my favorite series so i was just waiting, like waiting for kai to realize that cinder is selene.
Looking back at it this was the first video of yours that I watched! And I love it so much 😂
Percy Jackson is one of my favorite character's of all time and I haven't read the last book in the Heroes of Olympus series because so many of my friends have said that it's a letdown so don't feel bad about not liking that book. From what i've heard the amount of hype outshines the book. Apparently it was a good book but there was far too much hype and it coudn't live up to the hype.
The darkest minds series is my favorite series of all time it just impacted me so much
I got a lot of those, but only the top three in the right order.
My top ten list is as follows:
10. Septimus Heap by Angie Sage
9. The Kane Chronicles
8. The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel by Michael Scott
7. The Chronicles of the Imaginarium Geographica by James A. Owen
6. The Mortal Instruments
5. Percy Jackson and the Olympians
4. The Heroes of Olympus
3. The Infernal Devices
2. The Bartimaeus Trilogy by Jonathan Stroud
1. Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy
Skulduggery Pleasant is perfection. Everyone needs to read it. EVERYONE. It's about this girl called Stephanie who inherits her uncle's fortune after he dies (much to the outrage of her aunt Beryl and Uncle Fergus, and to the bemusement of everyone else) then she gets attacked in her home and is rescued by a mysterious man. During this, she discovers that magic is real. She then apprentices under the man, Skulduggery Pleasant, a four-hundred year-old dapper, snarky skeleton detective. The comedy is perfect, the horror is just the right level of creepy, Landy fucks with your emotions and sanity.
Bartimaeus also needs to be read. It's a series about a snarky djinni who's summoned by a boy to steal a powerful amulet, thus begins their relationship. It explores the themes of slavery, morality, isolation, dehumanisation, class, oppression, the corruption of power, and what love really is, all while being absolutely hilarious.
The Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini is quickly becoming a favourite, but I can't judge it until I've read the ending and I'm only about a quarter of the way through book three, Brisingr.
YES SEPTIMUS HEAP IS SO UNDERRATED AND BEAUTIFUL AND OH MY JEEEZ
Katherine Oung Agreed.
FINALLY SOMEBODY WHO LOVES SKULLDUGGERY PLEASENT
Karkat Vantas My heart is happy.
Maria Adaway We're a rare species. Probably because only the first three books are available in America.
I am SO unbelievably happy that Throne of Glass is in your top 5!!!! My favorite from my favorite author! ❤️
Who likes the Divergent series?
ME
+britney le not me
Meee!!! I Love it! TDS is my life!
+britney le I enjoyed the first two books a lot, the third one turned me away from really loving it again, sadly.
Best books in the universe
Throne of glass should've been closer to the top....I agree with a lot of you choices though for your top 10. You say phenomenal a lot in this episode.....
You should read Rangers Apprentice and Brother and Chronicles. They somewhat connect. Like, once. But still it is good!!
Just finished the blood of Olympus (like 2 hours ago) and the end waS SO UNSATISFYING AND IM SO MAD AGH
Haha ikr
don't worry trials of apollo and magnus chase have either percy or annabeth
Zahli McBurney Magnus chase has annabeth?? omg
Yes! yes it does!
Percy Jackson welcome to the fandom
Mine (in order) are Harry Potter, Twilight, Lorien Legacies, Maze Runner, Hunger Games, Perry Jackson, Uglies (and a few others which I read when I was younger but still can't seem to take off my list). It seems that we have similar tastes bc any of the books that are on your list but aren't on mine, I haven't actually read. So I have a lot of catching up to do lol. (also you've just gained a new subscriber woo)
When you got to Number 4 and said "Four, four, four." I thought you were making a reference to the character Four from Divergent and I thought that was gonna be your pick...
Rather old video but I'm going. To say the books before you say them
Throne of glass
Game of thrones
Harry potter
City of bones
The hungry games
Lady midnight
Raven king
The crown
A court of thrones and rose
I just looked up popular books and pick which ones I could remember that she liked.
I know I didn't say the series but I don't know it I failed badly I got like 3
The HUNGRY Games?
eduardo wolf w
THE HUNGRY GAMES???? WTF
eduardo wolf you just named sequels, this is a favourite series one and if you know christine you know she doesn't like the selection series, btw it is called the hunger games not the hungry games, and if you were a fan you would also know she said she hasnt read game of thrones
Personally, I don't like Twilight itself, BUT, I hate it when people tease people for liking Twilight.
xX I'mReadingShutUp Xx Totally agree, thx
Wym by that
So I was in a bad reading slump that has been heavily going on since May of last year. I was having a lot of trouble, and I have a copy of Throne of Glass. So I took the risk of maybe sinking me deeper into the slump but it surprisingly saved my reading life! I started TOG in late January and I'm reading Heir of Fire right now. Seriously thank you Christine I bought TOG because of you!
I agree with you. I love Cassandra Clare's books, and they are the best books ever written. Both Infernal Devices, and Mortal Instruments. The first Dark Artifacts book (sequel to Mortal Instruments) comes out on March 8, 2016. I AM SOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!! She knows how to wrap up a good book series!!!
THE SHOW PREMIERES IN JANUARY!!! LIKE WHAT?!?!
+Izzy “Isator” Torrijos It's the Dark Artifices.
Oops. I misread the words.
I got one point ... for the Harry Potter because everyone loves it cause I love itttt😘😍😍😍😍😍
Am I the only one who likes heroes of olympus more than the Percy Jackson series?
I just found you while searching for a good TV series to watch and I just wanna say I love you.
9/12 ain't bad! I just didn't get The Darkest Minds, Vampire Academy, or Mistborn... which are all the ones I haven't read and wouldn't have thought of...
+Rocket Reads Those were the ones I didn't get either
Me too :)
+Rocket Reads You should read vampire academy, its really good :)
Ugh legend is never anywhere.... it's my fave series even though my soul died when I finished it
Ikr
N-N-No
divergent?
My life is a lie.
Same here
Yah 😭
I came to this video expecting divergent😭😭
I started following you recently, so I wasn't sure what would be on your list... but I knew Harry Potter would be #1! :) I haven't read many of these series yet - thanks for the recommendations!
When I was a teen and young adult (many moons ago), I read The Riftwar Saga by Raymond E. Feist, and The Empire Trilogy by Feist and Janny Wurts. Together, these books make up the Riftwar Cycle... and they are amazing!!! Have you ever read them? If not, you should!!
The Riftwar starts when a rift forms between two worlds and connects them. The Riftwar Saga follows Pug, an orphan who learns how to be a magician during a time of war in his world of Midkemia (the first book is aptly called Magician). People from the other world, Kelewan, come through and attack Pug's world. All the action in The Riftwar Saga happens in his land.
Then you start reading The Empire Trilogy, which takes place on the other world! It follows Mara, a young woman who must lead her house when her father and brother die. She starts out meek and grows into an amazing leader! The differences between the two worlds is so fascinating! I loved these books when they first came out back in 1982-1993, and I highly recommend them. :) This is one of the series on my personal all-time favorite series list. Since you enjoy magic and fantasy in general, I think you'd love these books! =)
Christine, PLEASE DO AN UPDATED VERSION OF THIS VIDEO!! I am already placing bets that Scythe is going to be on your list!
YAYYY so glad i get to watch this instead of doing hw
+Mariana Rodriguez (mariginnyreads) Same lol.

SHADOWHUNTERS/MORTAL INSTRUMENTS FANDOM WHERE U AT?!?! i realized she did this before Lady Midnight came out cuz LM is the best book ever and the shadowhunter chronicles should have been 1!!!
The way you see Harry Potter is the way I see Percy Jackson like those books I read and I was the same age as Percy in every book while reading then and I feel you! I get that feeling and it's amazing!
My favorite series is either Percy Jackson or The Waterfire Saga
Also Heroes of Olympus! I'm on book 2 right now!

Throne of Glass is way better than Twilight in my opinion. #issimethingwrongwithme
+Iola Dear #nothereisnt I think ToG is way better too.

46 seconds ago...woah
Love the bow!
+✿Holly O'Hair✿ THANKS! =D
+polandbananasBOOKS You should try the house of night series they are soooo good(if u haven't already)
+polandbananasBOOKS you should read the land of stories series, it consists of four books, the land of stories, the land of stories the enchantrsses return, the land of stories a grimm warning, and the land of stories beyond the kingdoms
+Audrey Friga I LOVE THAT SERIES!!! My aunt works for little brown and I might get too read the 5th book early!!!!
+Kiki Alonso (kikistar124) there's a fifth book what's it called.
hahaha she's such a dork. I love it.
IM BETTING ON:
Twilight
the mortal instruments
the infernal devices
harry potter
percy jackson
ruby red
the vampire academy
the darkest minds
the fifth wave
lunar chronicals
okay 8/12 i'm proud
People who talk shit about twilight didn't read the books and they simply don't understand the saga like we do.
Would it be a good idea to read the Infernal Devices and Mortal Instruments in publication order?
Yes
Yes! There are some spoilers in the mortal instruments that spoil the infernal devices.
+Kuhrizma Clemons yes! :)
you don't have to if you don't want to. I read the mortal instruments and than the infernal devices so no. you just start to fill in the plot holes as you read the infernal devices.
Yes! That's the best way!
*whispers* I raised my hand...
girl i only got 11/12 cause i thought you'd include divergent
+Magical Molly *applause* XD lol allegiant dropped it out of the top 12 area for me
+polandbananasBOOKS lol I figured
YOU GO GIRL! I raised my hand so high for those questions! I honestly believe that I became such an avid reader because of Twilight. It literally opened up this world I never knew, amazing. So many people judge me but I ask them "did you read it thoug" and of course no they didn't. Don't judge my book without even opening it up. Nono. ♡ thanks christine for relating to me, yet again~
harry potter is the best series of all time in my opinion
I guessed the top four in the correct order.
+ClassicDominique *high fives*
OMG The Lunar Chronicles love love love love love love
Throne of Glass saved my reading life. I started at the beginning of this year and now I'm an obsessed reader again.
I GOT A TWELVE OUTTA TWELVE I NEED A HIGH FIVE
Emma Slagg ✋🏼
✋✋✋✋✋
✋🏼
SAME!!!
✋👏
lol I want to get you a box of energy drinks and see how hyper you are lmao. You should check out House of Night, The chronicles of Nick, and Dark Hunters series. They are awesome although there are quite a few books.
Dark hunter series was awesome
April S I haven't finished yet because a started the house of night series
HoN is awesome but you learn to HATE Eric and I really wanted to like him.
+Quinley Hoffer but he is the kindest out of them. neferet seems to be evil though and I almost cried when Stevie ray "died" lol
Haha, you haven't gotten to the part, have you? You realize that he's actually a selfish and arrogant fuckboi. Sorry to ruin your dreams. I hate him so much.
the lunar chronicles didnt really stick with me, i got bored with it really quickly which is a shame because so many people love it and i cant connect with them on it
It took me a while to get into Cinder, but once I got into it I really enjoyed reading them and they do get much better as they go along
The Lunar Chronicles didn't really stick with me either and I'm also disappointed because a lot of peeps are obsessed with it like my sister :P
So much agree. I just didn't connect with it for some reason. I think I like more series like Darkest Mind, Red Queen, or Maximum Ride.
+Ella Shearer yea me too at first bec of the cover 😂
It is a great series to read if done right. During a holiday when you can binge read until you get into it properly. I had to re-read Cinder so many times and I got further and further each time and then suddenly I was done and begging for Scarlet😂
I've seen this video so many times but it puts me in the mood to read when I'm feeling book slumpy and it's just great
