Book reccomendations? Please?
Now that I saw Harry Potter 7 Part 2, my childhood is officially over.
And I feel strangely empty without a series to obsess over. Any reccomendations for me?
And please DON"T SAY TWILIGHT. I hated the series, and I always will.
I have also read Eragon, Young Wizards, and I will probably never read the Hunger Games series or Percy Jackson.

If you really love fantasy, there's the His Dark Materials Trilogy by Philip Pullman, it's fantastic. Also, if you're a bit more juvenile, I read the Charlie Bone series when I was younger. Or, on the opposite end of the spectrum, there's the classics like the Lord of the Rings by J. R. R. Tolkien and the Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis or even the Oz books (there are fifteen by L. Frank baum) or the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan.

Other series, but again, not as good as HP
Mortal Instruments series, Cassandra Clare
Wolves of Mercy Falls by Maggie Stiefvater
The Maze Runner, by James Dashner
