Book reccomendations please!

It's been a while since I've picked up a book for pleasure, and now that I have the IPad I would like to start reading again. I just downloaded The Hunger Game trilogy for kindle, what are some other books you reccomend? I'm open to really any kinds of books, not looking for anything in particular. I just finished the book Room a few days ago and loved it.

Whenever someone asks me for a book rec, I tell them "The Glass Castle" by Jeanette Walls. It's been a few years since I read it, but I remember not being able to put it down, and crying at parts (I'm not a book-cryer at all).

Loved Hunger Games! You won't be disappointed.

I know it's said a lot, but "The Millennium Series" (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Who Played with Fire, Who Kicked the Hornets Nest) by Stieg Larsson. Amazing series.

I've been checking out the yearly goals page. Some people are also adding quick little reviews of the books after.

Also seeing a few different books people are reading and how they like them, I also am better figuring out who has similiar tastes to mine!

The Hunger Games was amazing!

I loved Something Borrowed and Something Blue by Emily Giffin.

The Sookie Stackhouse Series is one of my faves!

The Help was awesome too!

I just read Those who Save Us and I couldn't get it out of my head.

It's historical fiction about a german woman during WW2. Def an interesting perspective but a difficult topic - this is a serious novel but I really liked it - extremely well written.

I have been reading the six part "Green Series" By Judy Christie. The first book was a free kindle book that I downloaded last year and have read every book in the series since.
