Going to be on a plane for 11 hrs and am looking for good books to read. I am 19, girl and I like fiction. recently read the Help & loved it?

Update:

I have considered reading It's kind of a Funny Story (loved the movie), Paper Towns, and Maze runner, however I am not sure if these are good books as I have not seen any reviews

    The Maze Runner is okay, not the best. You should definitely check out Harry Potter, they're a classic.

    Percy Jackson is fantastic and well written, everyone I know that has read them love them. The Iron Druid Chronicles are also great.

    Although I haven't read it, I've heard all good things about the book Good Omens. It's kind of a supernatural/urban fantasy book with vampires and such, but it's supposed to be funny.

    The Dresden Files are really awesome. They're in the urban fantasy category, and they're about this dude who's a wizard and a private detective. But he's not the typical brandish-wands-with-a-long-beard-wise-guy wizard. He's just the tall dark and handsome (in a gruff way) type and he has a great sense of humor. So they're kind of supernatural mystery novels, and I highly recommend them.

    The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini are both very good books. Also, anything by Jodi Picoult is good, especially House Rules and Vanishing Acts. I also enjoy classic books like The Hobbit, Alice in Wonderland, The Wizard of Oz, and 101 Dalmatians.

    Crocktails & Crocktails II are hilarious, I'm not joking I read them both on a plane & I was hooked crying laughing, there's some sex in them but it's mainly about a catastrophic relationship. The first books written from the females perspective & the second the males. Amazon get it downloaded!!!

    Source(s): Read them myself more than once

    Goodreads is quite amazing- if you let rate books and put them on your shelves, Goodreads provides personalized recommendations based on those books and their ratings. Now, for my personal favorites:

    Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas

    Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard

    Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi

    The Young Elites by Marie Lu

    Legend by Marie Lu

    An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir

    The Emperor's Edge by Lindsay Buroker

    Paladin by Sally Slater

    Summoner: The Novice

    Wattpad favorites:

    The Emperor's Edge (only the first three are posted)

    Darkness Girl:Trickster God

    Blue Sun by Sally Slater

    Summoner: The Novice (only a very large sample posted)

    The Secret Life of Bees. It's along the same lines as The Help.

    Iron-Jawed Angels: About women's suffrage.

    Underground to Canada: about slavery

    Witch of Blackbird Pond: about discrimination and overcoming stereotype

    The Outsiders: about overcoming stereotypes (a really good book)

    Well, I love to read. But I got kinda bored of it tbh. So I uploaded an app called wattpad, and it's amazing!!! I love it so much. Basically you get to read young and undiscovered author's books for free, and some of these books are so amazing that they are already published!! Yes you need Internet, but once a book is in your library, you basically don't need Internet to read it anymore.

    Look up Goodreads online. You can find plenty of reviews on the books you've listed. If you haven't found reviews then you're either not looking hard enough or entering the right terms into your search engine.
