Twilight by Stephenie Meyer

Had to read it to find out what all the hype is about. Enjoyed meeting Bella and Edward. I have read the first 2 books not sure if I will finish the series. Now there is great debate amoung our readers about the film and if Edward has been cast properly.
If you like romance, pale faced heroes and vampires read this series!

Harry Potter and the deathly hollows

You'll probably want to read this one twice. Once so you know what is going to happen, who is going to die? And then a second time more slowly so you can take in all the connections back through the series. Enjoy it, it is the last Harry book (well by J K Rowling anyway!)

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
