Can anyone recommend some books
I've been so bored lately because I have nothing good to read. So here's a list of books that I have read and maybe you can recommend me few books or a series based on those.
Books I've read (that I liked):
The warriors series (all four sets and the super editions)
The queste series ( the one with septimus heap)
The path of the warrior
The first two books of Rangers Apprentice ( the third book wasn't nearly as interesting)
Most of a series of unfortunate events
The Artemis fowl series
The first 2 books of the city of ember ( gonna start reading the last two soon)
EDIT: all 3 books in the hunger games
EDIT2: tunnels
EDIT3: I read freakanomics and super freaknomics and some of Scott adam's books about the dilbert principle
I'm 15 if that makes a difference
I think that's about all I can think of... So yeah, recommend some books based on those.

I've read the Cirque Du Freak series. Liked it.
I've read the Demonata series. Loved it.
I'm currently reading The Thin Executioner. It's pretty ok. A little hard to follow cause of the traveling

OMG Darren Shan is AMAZING! <3 <3 <3 <3
The Hunger Games trilogy seem to be GREAT books.
I strongly recommend Kafka on the Shore - Haruki Murakami
@thisiswar I read the hunger games. But I will look into the inheritance cycle.
@ZombieOverlord: I WILL NOT BELIEVE YOU

I thought you were talking about the Metallica autobiography for a second there... But read the Lord of the Rings!
My home room teacher like some of those books... But I probably won't read them till mid- college...
[quote=Chongo55]@Boss I did look into a game of thrones. But it just seemed far to mature for me at the moment...[/quote]
Then you probably wouldn't like any of the other books I listed, to be honest.
I've always had a liking for "classic" literature, but I suppose it wasn't the best idea to recommend them, since only a small number of people really enjoy them.
EDIT: Game of Thrones is relatively new in comparison to the other books I mentioned, though.
I was gonna read those @ZombieOverlord ....

The boy turns into a slave, runs away, gets captured again, runs away, and at the end, he reaches his destination and his servant becomes his sacrifice, but he doesn't sacrifice him and the servant dies anyway. He becomes invincible, returns home, stops all the executions as he offers himself up in the executed's place, but no one can cut his head off.
Oh, and he marries the girl that cries a lot in the beginning and has many babies.
@Boss I did look into a game of thrones. But it just seemed far to mature for me at the moment...
For Whom the Bell Tolls - Ernest Hemingway
Game of Thrones series - George R.R. Martin
Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen
The Count of Monte Cristo - Alexandre Dumas
I knew someone would suggest Harry potter. I know I should read it. But after the third book it just bored me... Sorry if I sound like an idiot, but they weren't my FAVOURITE books in the world...
The Lord of the Rings books are legendary! There is also an other book that describes the beginning of Middle Earth which is called "The Silmarilion" which I'm currently reading and i also enjoyed ready the Eragon series... Take your pick!
1984
Harry Potter
The Hobbit/Lord of the Rings
I haven't even finished 1984 yet, but it's a sick book so far. By far the best one I've had to read for school so far.
Does anyone know if there was a sequel to Tunnels? I read that (added to list)
[quote=Sapphire27]the hunger games.

Kite Runner is a very good book indeed.
Oh yeah, I read all 3 of the hu ger games let me just add those.
