May 2015 Updates

Here's what I've been reading and watching in May.
  • Torchwood: I finished Torchwood and I have to say it is the weirdest thing I have ever seen.
  • Orphan Black: I watched the entire first two seasons of Orphan Black and all the episodes of season 3 that are out so far. I love it. I've wanted to watch this show for so long and I was not disappointed.
  • A Thousand Pieces of You by Claudia Gray: It took me a while to get into this book, but I did enjoy it. Overall, it wasn't spectacular, but it was pretty good. I will read the sequel when it comes out.
  • Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli: This book was funny and adorable. I don't usually like realistic fiction, especially this type of realistic fiction, but I really enjoyed this book.
  • The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender by Leslye Walton: I did not like this book very much. It didn't make sense to me.
  • The Retribution of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin: I finished the Mara Dyer trilogy, and, like most people, I found the last book to be a bit disappointing. I did still enjoy it though.
  • Afterworlds by Scott Westerfeld: I wasn't a big fan of the Uglies series, but I really liked Afterworlds. I thought it was written in a very interesting way.
  • Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer: I read the first book in the Artemis Fowl series and it was really awesome. Sometimes children's books are just a lot of fun to read. I am totally going to be reading the rest of the series.
  • The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness: I finally started the Chaos Walking trilogy! I really liked the first book, and I am super excited to read the rest of the trilogy after that cliffhanger.
  • Ask the Passengers by A. S. King: This was another realistic fiction book (two in a month. Wow.) I loved it. I really identified with the main character.
  • The Demon King by Cinda Williams Chima: I really enjoyed this book and I'm super excited to read the rest of the series. I like one of the main characters Raisa.

Re-Readable Books

I am not a re-reader. I very rarely read books more than once. However, there are some books that deserve to be re-read. This is a list of books that I have either read more than once or that I want to read again.

Harry Potter: Obviously Harry Potter si on the list. I have re-read Harry Potter, some of the books more than once.

The Book Thief: I haven't actually re-read the Book Thief, but as it's one of my favourite books of all time, I am planning on reading it again at some point.

The Raven Cycle: I have read this series twice. It's my favourite series ever and I love it to pieces.

The Hunger Games: I have not read the Hunger Games more than once. I read the books a really long time ago, and I want to read them again.

Seraphina: I have not re-read Seraphina, but I want to read it again.

Throne of Glass:I love the Throne of Glass series. I haven't re-read it, because I actually read it very recently, but I will probably read it again in a few years.

Eon: I love the Eon duology. I haven't re-read it, but I plan to at some point.

Clockwork Angel: I have not read the Infernal Devices series more than once, and I feel like it would enjoy it even more than I did the first time I read it.

Paper Towns: Paper Towns is my favourite John Green novel. I haven't read it more than once, but I plan to read it again at some point.

Book Series that I do not Plan on Finishing

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams: I have read the first three books. I enjoyed them, but I got kind of bored.

Halo by Alexandra Adornetto: I read about half of the first book. I have no desire to finish the series ever.

The Selection by Kiera Cass: I read the first two books before the third was out. I did not hate them, but I did not like them. I have no desire to read the third book, or the rest in the series.

Princess Academy by Shannon Hale: I actually liked the first two books, but I read them so long ago.

A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle: I read this book when I was about ten years old. I don't know if I liked it, because I was ten, and I wasn't a very good judge of books at that age. It's possible that I might read this book again and read the other books in the series, but I doubt it.

The Giver by Lois Lowry: I really liked this book, but I don't think I'll ever read the other books in the series.

Anne of Green Gables by L. M. Montgomery: I didn't really like the first book, I have no desire to read the others. I do like the movies, though.

Fablehaven by Brandon Mull: I read the first two books in the series. I wasn't that interested.

The False Prince by Jennifer Nielsen: I actually liked the first two books in this series, but I read them too long ago and I don't feel like reading the last one.

Snow like Ashes by Sara Raasch: I did not like the first book much. I do not want to read the rest of the series.

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs: This book was okay. It's just not my favourite genre.

Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi: I found the first book extremely boring.

Blood Red Road by Moira Young: I liked the first two books, but I read them a long time ago and I don't remember what happened.

Which Young Adult Fantasy or Science Fiction Book Should you Read Next? (Based on Myers Briggs)

What young adult fantasy or science fiction book should you read next? Well, that depends on your Myers Briggs type. For each Myers Briggs type, I have chosen two young adult (and a few children's) books that I think that particular type would enjoy. I tried to make it so that each type has one popular book and one less well-known book.

NOTE: This chart isn't very accurate. You might hate the books suggested for your type, or you might love them. There are no guaranties.

ENFJ: The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken and The Girl of Fire and Thorns by Rae Carson
