A Series of Great Reads, Part 1

I know we aren’t the only ones that have finished a book and wished we could just keep on reading because we didn’t want the story to end. You know what we do in those moments? We turn to trilogies and series. Because what’s better than 1 book? 2 books, 3 books….and even better – when we lose count! We don’t mind staying in all weekend and reading 3 books in a day – please tell us you’re one of those people too!

Today, we’re looking at series on Entitle that make us want to give the authors a great big hug and say “thanks” for writing….and then writing even more 🙂

Oh, and of course this blog post has 3 parts because what’s better than 1 blog post? A part 2 and 3! Our 1st post features some gripping, utterly entertaining young adult, sci-fi, and fantasy novels that we would binge read again any day. So, if you can’t find us, you know where we’ll be.

The Mortal Instruments – Cassandra Clare (YA/Fantasy)

The Hush, Hush Saga – Becca Fitzpatrick (YA/Paranormal)

The Infernal Devices – Cassandra Clare (YA/Fantasy)

Unwind Dystology – Neal Shusterman (YA/Sci-Fi)

The Song of Albion Trilogy – Stephen R. Lawhead (Fantasy)

Visions Trilogy – Lisa McMann (YA, Fantasy/Paranormal)

The Wake Trilogy – Lisa McMann (YA, Fantasy/Paranormal)

Rot & Ruin Series – Jonathan Maberry (YA, Horror – Zombies)

The Fallen – Thomas E. Sniegoski (Fantasy)

Otherworld Assassin – Gena Showalter (Fantasy)

We can’t stop reading and you shouldn’t either. Let us know if you’ve read any of these and if there is one (or 2 or 3 😉 ) we forgot – we’d love to hear from you. Anytime we can add a new series to our reading list, we consider it a good day!

Make sure to stay tuned for part 2, we would tell you what’s coming but what’s the fun in that (….as if you couldn’t tell, we’re serious about our series here at Entitle). Happy reading!
