coyo7e posted:So I just got finished watching the movie of Miss Peregrine's, should I also check out the book? It sounds interesting but I don't know if it's much different than the movie or if it goes into more detail or in a different direction Watching that movie made you want to check out the books?  Anyone got any recc's for books along the lines of the Abhorsen(nix) , Bartimaeus(stroud), or Golden Compass(pullman) trilogies? Doesn't need to be a series.

Alder posted:I recc'd Lockwood and Co series by Stroud which is a ghost-hunting/detective agency themed series. So far there's 4 books out but I feel like there'll be another one next year. I like it because there's a FeMC and welp, kids acting like kids vs adults in an interesting setting. Also, talking skull. How many are in the Abhorsen series? I only am aware of 3 plus that Old Wall novella thing. And thanks guys, I'll check out all of those recommendations.

Ither posted:Rick Riordan is truly a progressive writer. Glad to see someone else on here enjoying his work. I have a very limited knowledge of who Riordan and Percy Jackson are, but there are countless other religions to crib from that are immediately recognizable. Indian, Incan/Aztex stuff, Native American, Chinese, Japanese, The Scottish/Celtic mush, the Nigerian/West African (or pushed through to Latin America) Orishas... Tons more.

luscious posted:ok so I basically love all of Harry Potter while also starting my re-reads at book 3 lol. Should I skip some of the earlier stuff of just stfu and read it all? You've probably read it several times through already, so just go with what you want? If your choices are rereading Harry Potter and reading Duane's Young Wizards for the first time, read Duane's series. And then reread those instead of rereading Harry Potter (I know they're two different styles of fantasy, but I liked Young Wizards so much better). Diane Duane is also a woman, so that hits another point for you.
