I'm a sucker for YA books too! :silly:</p> <p>The Legend Trilogy is similar to The Hunger Games/Divergent</p> <p>Bright Side, Archer's Voice, and Confess are awesome! </p> <p>The Bridgerton's a saga following 8 kids in London. Each kid gets their own book.</p> <p>I just finished the Law of Moses which was good. Going to start the 5th Wave soon since that's coming out in theaters. </p> <p>Cinder &amp; Ella is a super easy and quick read that I enjoyed.</p> <p>Collide and Pulse are two books which is good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2427649 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 13:50:54 +0000 Keybee 2427649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lunar Chronicals! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2427600 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 13:18:51 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2427600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sera_87: I have not! I didn't know she had a new novel. I just requested it from the library :) There's a wait though, so it might take me awhile to get it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2427534 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 12:38:29 +0000 sera_87 2427534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: have you read her new one yet - we never asked for wings? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2427529 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 12:34:58 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2427529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you read the language of flowers yet? omg it's sooo good. </p> <p>Also: If I stay was super interesting, then I watched the movie. Book was definitely better. It was a really quick, easy read - albeit sad. </p> <p>It might not be classified YA, but Crazy Rich Asians was funny. </p> <p>Did you ever read the sisterhood of the traveling pants? I read them as a teen and liked them </p> <p>Oh! and Miss Peregrine's home for peculiar children - it was sooo interesting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2427484 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 11:57:59 +0000 JerricaBenton 2427484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: ooh I'm so excited now - thanks :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2427452 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 11:31:04 +0000 Adira 2427452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JerricaBenton: I'm enjoying the Bloodlines series just as much as the Vampire Academy one!!

I read them so quickly! I do want to read the bloodlines series too, maybe this summer.

I LOVED the Vampire Academy series and now am enjoying the Bloodlines series.</p> <p>If someone didn't mention it yet, Red Rising by Pierce Brown is great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2427397 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 10:57:53 +0000 erinbaderin 2427397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh, I thought of another really good one - the FitzOsbourne trilogy by Michelle Cooper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2426976 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 00:53:38 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2426976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@twodoghouse: if you like YA fantasy, definitely check out the Fever series! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2426907 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 23:19:05 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2426907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here are a couple of series that I really enjoyed that I haven't seen mentioned:</p> <p>The Fever series by Karen Marie Moning (first book is Darkfever)<br /> The Curse Workers series by Holly Black (first book is White Cat)<br /> The Birthmarked series by Caragh M O'Brien<br /> The Matched series by Ally Condie </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2426754 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 20:46:11 +0000 gilmoregirl 2426754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Miss Sarah: well, I teach remedial English, so I think we've hit all the major points :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2426753 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 20:44:49 +0000 JerricaBenton 2426753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was embarrassingly into Vampire Academy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2426742 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 20:37:45 +0000 MrsSRS 2426742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sera_87: Yeah! She's built on both universes. After the Alana quartet there's three more quartets (Daine, Keladry, Bekah) and the Trickster Series. And the Circle quartet has a sequel quartet and then a follow up series after that. I think that's it. Now I'm off to explore your Goodreads.<br /> I've been on a Terry Pratchett kick lately! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2426729 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 20:25:36 +0000 sera_87 2426729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsSRS: lol I meant at the time. I really liked the Alanna series (lion? Something?) and the circle song series. (I think that's what it was called). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2426705 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 20:12:35 +0000 MrsSRS 2426705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sera_87: Lol. She's done a few more books since I was 12. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2426700 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 20:09:47 +0000 sera_87 2426700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsSRS: back when I was 12 so my memories a bit fuzzy. But I'm pretty sure I read everything by her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2426678 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 19:50:47 +0000 MrsSRS 2426678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you read all of Tamora Pierce's series? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-fun-ya-books#post-2426554 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 17:49:50 +0000 Miss Sarah 2426554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gilmoregirl: So I feel like we would be great friends.
