Nothing like a good book

I love reading a good book.  Since I am finally finding time to read again, here are two of my latest favorite books.  Anyone have any favorites they want to share?

I am currently reading The Wise Man's Fear (book two of the Kingkiller Chronicles trilogy) by Patrick Rothfuss.  Name of the Wind is the first book.  These books are a combination of Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings- very epic.  I love the writing style.


Ally Condie's book Matched is a young adult fantasy novel that reminds me of the Hunger Games, Twilight,  The Uglies, etc.  I don't know why I get so sucked into these kinds of books, but they are really fun to read. Fast and easy.  Can't wait for book #2 to come out in November (another trilogy).

I love young adult fantasy books too! It is kind of an embarrassing habit at times and Rob makes fun of me but I can't help it. They suck me in...I will definitely add these to my long list of summer must-reads.

Thanks so much for the recommendations, Sarah! I love a good book and am always happy to add one to my list. I've heard so many good reviews of Matched, but I just want to wait till they all come out! I hate waiting around for the next book to come out. So annoying!

You always recommend the best books! I loved The Help and Matched, and I am now reading Children of the Promise! Those can get so intense! We need to talk soon so we can chat about books!
