HP may really be children's books, but they're awesome.
Many of the others, though? Ugh. My boss years ago tricked me into reading Twilight. She loved it. I never followed a suggestion of hers again.
Everything I put down becomes mainstream. I tried multiple times as a teenager to finish A Song of Ice and Fire (isn't that book 1?). I just couldn't get into it.
Bit stuck for what to read at the moment. I'm gonna finish this Mistborn novel but not sure if I'll carry on with them yet
