Looking For Alaska by John Green


This is Probably my all time favorite book, its
Looking for Alaska by John Green . The protagonist, Miles, leaves to go to start his "Great Perhaps" in his new boarding school. It took a while for this book to hook me in but once I was I could not put it down. Looking for Alaska is split into two parts, Before and After. I was completely surprised with every twist in the book and could reread it a hundred times. With a humorous yet mysterious tone to this book, any one could read it and enjoy every dingle page.

Synopsis? Yup:
Miles Halter is fascinated by famous last word -- and tired of his safe life at home. He leaves for boarding school to seek what the dying poet Francois Rabelais called the "Great Perhaps." Much awaits miles at Culver Creek, including Alaska Young. Clever, funny, screwed - up, and dead sexy, Alaska will pull Miles into her labyrinth the catapult him into the Great Perhaps.

Shadow Kiss by Richelle Mead


Hey guys! I just done reading another really amazing fantasy faction book called Shadow Kiss by Richelle Mead. This is the third book in the Vampire Academy Series(look at my last post from more the the series info). This was one on my top ten favorite because the action scene's were written flawlessly. Not only that but Mead really put in a lot of depth and into this book. The ending is a HUGE cliffhanger and leaves begging for more. This Type of novel is directed to males and females from fourteen and up. I say this because their are some pretty awesome action scene that i think guys would thoroughly enjoy and some topics/scene that are defiantly young adult.

Here's the Synopsis:

It's springtime at St. Vladimir's Academy, and Rose Hathaway is this close to graduation. Since making her first Strigoi kills, Rose hasn't been feeling quite right. She's having dark thoughts, behaving erratically, and worst of all...might be seeing ghosts.

As Rose questions her sanity, new complications arise. Lissa has begun experimenting with her magic once more, their enemy Victor Dashkov might be set free, and Rose's forbidden relationship with Dimitri is starting to heat up again. But when a deadly threat no one saw coming changes their entire world, Rose must put her own life on the line--and choose between the two people she loves most.
