I am an avid reader, but mainly of romances.

Aaand, it's nearly impossible for me to pick favorites so I'll just list the series I'm most fond of. =)

1. The Malorys Family series by Johanna Lindsey

2. Black Dagger Brotherhood series by J.R. Ward. (This series kicked Twilight's booty. More realistic and the heroes don't sparkle.=P)

3. The Bridgertons series by Julia Quinn.

4. The Wallflowers series by Lisa Kleypas.

5. The Kazanov series by Patricia Grasso

If you like Crank you will love Burned, Impulse and Identical :)

I've read all of them. I'm excited for Tricks, and Fallout, the third book in the Crank series, is coming out either late this year or next year.

What is the Crank series? A few people have mentioned the books, but I've never seen them.

You poor thing.
They're are by Ellen Hopkins
She writes in verse
I'm excited for them too :)

Crank & Glass are based on her daughter's experience with meth. How she got started...all that stuff.

(Crank and Glass are the only two books in a series. The rest are seperate)

Burned is about a LDS Mormon girl who is the oldest of 7 girls I believe, and she's abused by her father. When her mom gets pregnant with the first boy, she's sent away to her aunt's where she gets to see the world outside of what she's been living.

Impulse is about three teens in a clinic who all have tried to commit suicide. They all get a close bond, and the ending is the best part of the book, for sure.

Identical is about identical twin girls, and their father sexually abused one. It has a very dramatic, unexpected twist ending. Very good book. I'd actually say it's one of her best.

Yup yup
If you have not read any of her books you are missing out
Drop Twilight
And go buy one of these books!

Eh not my kinda material. I prefer books like The Road and and Life of Pi. The Road is so amazing. I'd recommend it to anyone...as long as you can deal with sad novels.
