Top Ten Favorite Books

My favorite books and why I love them (in one sentence) :)

1. Warm Bodies by Isaac Marion

I loved this book because it was deep and passionate and really stressed acceptance and equality, and housed the belief that through it all people can change.

2. Out of my Mind by Sharon M. Draper

I've read this book three times, cover to cover, and I still can't get enough of it; the morals that all people can do great things and not judging a book by its cover are like neon signs.

3. Paper Towns by John Green

A book by my favorite author John Green, this follows the story of a boy going to extreme measures to find his first love that's mysteriously gone missing.

4. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling

Among all the Harry Potter books, this one is my favorite for many reasons, the storyline was wonderful and the cliffhanger at the end was beautiful :)

5. Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins

This was easily my favorite book in the Hunger Games trilogy, the description was wonderful and the emotion and plot of the Quarter Quell was amazing.

6. Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell

This book was fabulous, to say the least - it was throbbing with passion and love and heartbreak and hurt and the simple joys of a teen romance.

7. Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs

This novel was fantastic, if you're into horror, and if you're not, read it anyway; each child was so intriguing, and the pictures that were paired with the story made it so much more real.

8. The 5th Wave by Rick Yancey

The first in an upcoming trilogy, The 5th Wave was full of suspense and thrills, all paired with a sibling bond that progresses the storyline and set in the midst of an alien-invasion.

9. The Selection by Kiera Cass

The Selection is basically bride wars set in a royal palace - full of drama and romance and, of course, love triangles.

10. One for the Murphys by Lynda Mullay Hunt

Sweet and sad, One for the Murphys had me cradling the book and crying after the end - readers beware.

-- Note: Not in any specific order, although Warm Bodies is pretty high up there c; --
