Do or Do Not, There is No Try
Books that I have enjoyed this past year have included:

Harry Potter series (read them for the 4th time) by J.K. Rowlings

The Percy Jackson and the Olympians series by Rick Riordan

The Red Pyramid (Kane Chronicles Book #1) by Rick Riordan

I recommend them to everyone. I am a fan of Egyptian history and culture, so Rick Riordan brings all of those things in a fresh perspective with a modern twist to them. Very enjoyable reading material Smile

They get a bit repetitive though :/ I mean, getting called back again to the games is kind of unlikely
