My top 10 book series



10: Lynburn Legacy (Unspoken and Untold by Sarah Rees Brennan)
Ahhh the Lynburn Legacy. Kami and Jared. Jami. Such a pair of tricky little blighter's. I had the honour of meeting the lovely Miss. Sarah Rees Brennan herself a few months back. The most enthusiastic author I have ever met. All smiles and giggles our Sarah. 
Anyway- at number 10 is this little jewel. I just love the mental connection they had, and the fact that Kami isn't just of normal race like most YA books are! It was a refreshing read that left you frustrated at the end. I certainly wanted to rage around. Ooops.

9: Divergent (Divergent, Insurgent and Allegiant by Veronica Roth)



Annnnnnnd at number 9, we have Divergent! I was not a big fan of Insurgent, to tell the truth. I've yet to finish it all these months later. 
Four/Tobias and Tris... I love them. The books were such lovely little reads and I can't wait to see how the trilogy concludes in book three. And I'm also excited for the film! It's going to be one amazing ride!

8: Syrena Legacy (Of Poseidon, Of Triton and Of Neptune by Anna Banks) 


At number 8 we have the Syrena Legacy! Now I love these. Such adorable little reads, and Galen and Emma are just as cute! The only thing I disliked really about these was the writing style. It wasn't up my street at all, but I ploughed through it anyway. I adore Anna Banks. She's totally adorable. I have so much signed stuff from her, and she's so lovely to talk to on Twitter. I can't wait for Of Neptune!

7: The Selection Trilogy (The Selection, The Elite, The One by Kiera Cass)
Words cannot describe my love for these books! Ahh! I hate stuff like the Bachelor, so I wasn't expecting to like it at all. Wrong. I loved it. The first book was amazing and truly amazing. I devoured it well and truly. And then I read the second. Sigh. I was... disappointed. For one thing, Aspen needs to get lost. And America annoyed the hell outta me in The Elite with her love triangle-ness. Is that a word? It is now. But still, I can't wait for The One. It's going to be very, very interesting.

6: The Iron Fey Series (Iron King, Iron Daughter, Iron Queen, Iron Knight etc by Julie Kagawa)
These books were what made me start to like faeries. Yes, they were annoying at times, but I guess there's always one book series that you love that's also annoying as well? Iron Fey would be mine. Ahh I adored Puck and Ash. I loved them so much. It's such an imaginative world and I'm so glad I read them. Not amazing but nearly. I'm reading The Lost Prince soon, then Iron Traitor when it comes out. Exciting times ahhh.

5: The Infernal Devices (Clockwork Angel, Clockwork Prince, Clockwork Princess by Cassandra Clare)


These books will shatter your soul and leave you a mess. I kid you not. Just talking about them is making me whimper internally. Will/Tessa/Jem is the mother of all love triangles... Because it isn't even really a love triangle. Both ships sail, and sail away happily at that. They are books that you will cherish. And I have no doubt they will become classics in the future, loved by all. They are magical and amazing. I will say no more on that matter.

4: Throne of Glass books (Throne of Glass and Crown of Midnight by Sarah J.Maas)

Oh? What's that sound? The sound of perfection. My recent finds and wow. I fell hard and fast for these pair of gems. Celaena is the kind of character girls should aspire to be like. She's so strong and independent. I just... adore her. These books are my afsdagagasgs more people should read them for sure. Such beautiful, amazing books and I can't wait for the third book. I need it like air. 


3: Vampire Academy (Vampire Academy, Frostbite, Shadow Kiss, Blood Promise, Spirit Bound and Last Sacrifice by Richelle Mead)
These books will give you chest pains. And make you cry... alot. Dimitri... hey there baby, how you doing? These books are just amazing and underrated. People overlook them because VAMPIRES. But no... these books are gems and more than amazing actually. Rose was kick ASS. And I just can't wait for the movie. No, not just because I love love LOVE Danila Kozlovsky... nope. Heh.A big reason though. Just I love these books and will always love them so much.

2: The Mortal Instruments (City of Bones, City of Ashes, City of Glass, City of Fallen Angels, City of Lost Souls, City of Heavenly Fire by Cassandra Clare)


These books.
I need a minute. 
Just wow these books. They defined my teen years. Pretty much my young adult years too. The characters I just fell in love with like... yeah, I just love these books okay. Jace, Clary, JONATHAN, just everyone. Especially Jonathan/Sebastian heh. 
I've met Cassandra Clare. Had my books signed. I've met Jamie Campbell Bower who plays Jace too. The movie was amazing, but not like the book. But Jamie IS my Jace. Always will be. He was amazing. 
Anyway, back to the books!
These are my children. Always will be. The end.

1: Lux (Obsidian, Onyx, Opal, Origin and Opposition by Jennifer L.Armentrout)
 
Hyperventilates 
HYPERVENTILATES
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I will never love a series as much as Lux. I picked it up thinking 'oh yay... aliens... can you tell how excited I am...'
And then I met Daemon Black
HAHAHAAHAH
I HAVEN'T LOOKED BACK
And Kaemon
MUST YOU HURT ME THIS WAY? MUST YOU SHATTER MY HEART AT EVERY TURN?
Anyway. Yes. WE HAVE REACHED NUMBER ONE.
The Lux Books are just everything to me. And the fact Obsidian is becoming a MOVIE? Honestly, I cried when I found out. These books are my babies.
Oh and these books-
YEAH YOU HEARD ME.
They just freaking destroy me I can't even talk about the book and how much I relate to Katy, because the books are more than fabulous. She's my spirit animal
One more thing; if someone insults the book child that is the Lux books

Not even joking

Here were my top 10 books. I hope you enjoyed this!
