Dystopian society novels are my favorite but I also love reading Paranormal Romance novels, Sci-Fi novels, and Mythological novels. My favorite books are series. I love getting to know the characters and the landscape, and trying to figure out where they are going to go next.
If you are bored and/or looking for a good book to read, I have listed some below. Check them out! Look them up on Amazon or Barnes and Noble. See if any look good to you. If you read one, let me know what you think about it. If you have already read one (or more), I'd like to hear your thoughts.
Happy Reading!
