I like the atremis fowl, the hunger games, the alex rider series, the gregor the overlander series, the olympians, the inheritance series and books by harry turltedove he writes awesome alternate history books. Also like ender series and the dune books.

Correction needed sorry.

The hunger games were alright the ending of the second book kinda ruined it for me

What do you mean? The ending was the ultimate cliffhanger!

The Enders game series kinda died for me after the one from his perspective, and the one from beans perspective. Inheritance trilogy (or whatever it is now) is fun to read, but it's getting really long winded.

Agreed with the exception of the alex rider and artemis fowl series, they just arent interesting to me.

What could be more interesting than a teenager who's like the smartest man/kid on the planet. And his bodyguard who is like a force of nature.

Haha there are probably a lot of things, but there is no need to really explain I guess that was really a rhetorical question. Anyways I just don't know exactly why I don't like it I just don't.

Haha that was good Smith, I do dislike that about our generation. It seems to me the only people i know who read voluntarily are girls. I'm not being stereotypical just pointing out a trend I've noticed.

Maybe it's because I'm a fanboy, but I love the Halo books!

So true, there are hardly any people that read because they want to. This generation is horribble, I am actually a bit depressed that I have to grow up with these people. It's the sad truth.

I told a friend of mine that I was going to read, and his exact words were "Dude you actually read?" he seemed so surprised. On top of that I've heard people in my English class be forced to read out loud and I'm pretty sure I could've done better in the third grade.

yeah when told they have to read out aloud it seems like they were just told they were having 5 teeth pulled right now. without anesthetics.

Exactly!? Perhaps I enjoy reading because my parents pushed me to when I was little, and I quickly learned how enjoyable it was.

Yeah same here, I was constantly reading when I was young like first grade I started reading nonstop, nothing much has changed there haha. And like ya'll (sorry I'm from Texas) say when people are asked to read in English class they are like "Read, what do you mean 'Read'?" and when they read its horribble, there are only like three good readers in my class the rest seem to be illiterate. And the three people that are good readers are also the only ones who constantly have a book in their hands at all times. I told my friend I was reading one day and I got a similar response "Why are you going to read?"
