The Biblomaniac Army (booklovers, UNITE!) v.2

[Nari UwU]

I've finally ventured (rather unwillingly) back into the land of YA fiction. I've read quite a few for school recently. I think the best known of them are Ashes, by Ilsa Bick(?); Legend, by Marie Lu; and Divergent by Veronica Roth (?). They're been pretty good, but I am seriously wondering: why must every single YA book with a female main character involve romance? Why?

That is what they assume all preteens and teens like o.e
I recently read Divergent aas well, and even with the romance, I liked it. The plot reminded me kind of the Glen Beck book, Control, and the Hunger Games, just abit

I haven't read the others, but I have read the Hunger Games, and I agree that it reminded me, even just a little, of the Hunger Games. Actually, all three of them did. I liked Divergent, though it lacked many surprises. Ashes was well-written, but the subject matter was not my favourite, and it often lapsed into too gruesome and/or too disturbing for my taste. Legend was also rather predictable. I liked all three, but none seemed to be really extraordinary.

Does anyone know any good historical fiction books, preferably about the American Revolution? I'm looking for some books to read :3

I'd suggest Gary Paulsen's WoodsRunner and Laurie Halse Andersen's Chains. It's been a while since I read them (at least a year and a half), but I remember them both being good.

House of Hades came out about two weeks ago and I still haven't read it yet. I feel like a disappointment to the fandom.

Anyway, I finished Ender's Game, and I have to admit, I was a tad disappointed. I usually don't like happy endings, but for once, I was really rooting for a happy ending, and it didn't happen. It was still a decent book though. I can understand how everyone likes it.

@HeartOfCoal
I liked Ender's Game well enough (I read it last year for school), but I generally don't read science fiction, so it really wasn't my cup of tea. Plus I didn't really like Ender that much and Peter was scary.

Dont worry I haven't read House of hades too, I am currently on a waitinglist which sucks (at library)
I think I might just buy it instead.

I'm so sad right now, because The Book Thief's coming out tomorrow, but it's a limited release and no theaters near me are playing it. I really wanted to see it, it's one of my favorite books :P
