help me pick my next book..have a few in mind
I am currently reading The Hunger Games and love the series but I am almost done. Looking for next book to read. So far I am thinking of the following:
-The Forgotten Garden
-Outlander
-The Lovely Bones
-A Thousand Splendid Suns
-The Kitchen House
Which would you recommend??
Thanks!

Re: help me pick my next book..have a few in mind
Out of all of those I've only read two- A Thousand Splendid Suns and The Lovely Bones. I read the first for school years ago- it was a great book though! I really loved The Lovely Bones, too. I've heard the movie wasn't too great though. I wouldn't read it if you've already seen the movie.

OUTLANDER!!!! One of my favorite books EVERRRR.
A Thousand Splendid Suns was very good.
Lovely Bones was fantastic.
I love anything by Kate Morton, so the Forgotton Garden would definitely be good.

I read most of the books you listed and the only one I truly loved and could not put down was The Kitchen House. It was definitely one of my favorite books of all time.

Re: help me pick my next book..have a few in mind
I thought A Thousand Splendid Suns was incredible.
The only other book on your list that I've read was the Lovely Bones and I hated it.

Really? I'm curious what did you not like about it?

Re: help me pick my next book..have a few in mind
I wanted to like 1000 Spendid Suns and I had read amazing reviews but I just didn't fall in love with it.

Same here. The movie did not do justice to the book.

Re: help me pick my next book..have a few in mind
I HAAAAAAAATED The Lovely Bones. Literally to the point where I was actually ANGRY when I finished the book.
I'm sorry I can't be more helpful with the others, but I figured I'd give you my $0.02.

Re: help me pick my next book..have a few in mind
I really liked the Lovely Bones and A Thousand Splendid Suns.
If you loved The hunger Games- try the Delirium trilogy (there are only 2 out so far) by Lauren Oliver

I second this. I pretty much finished the entire book in one sitting yesterday. I started Pandemonium today. Divergent is another good dystopian series.
