Do you have a series of books or a particular book you would like to recommend others read? Post it here with the title, author, and a brief description to explain why it is so good for people to read!

I'll start with two of my favorites.

Firstly, if you're a fan of fantasy, I would recommend the Falling Kingdoms series by Morgan Rhodes. It currently has five books with a six book due out in December of 2017. There is also a prequel series starting with The Book of Spirits and Thieves which sets the world of Mytica (setting of Falling Kingdoms) many years into the past and connects it to Modern Day Toronto. Then, it connects it all in a Novella that was just released this past December called The Obsidian Blade. While I have yet to read the fifth book or the novella because they just came out, I can say with firm certainty that this is my favorite book series. It's full of magic, legends, and manslaughter. I will warn you now, if you like to pair characters, wait until the third book before finalizing your pairs, and even then don't do it. Without giving anything away, I paired characters in the first book and then within like the next few books the pairs dissolved due to either a person dying, the individual falling for someone else, or THE PERSON DYING. The first book is a bit of a blood bath character wise but if you've watched Game of Thrones you should be good. But overall the series is very good. All the characters that live have character development, and in the third and fourth books you really get to see that the goal of the main characters does not just impact Mytica, but the entire world, which I think many books lack in really showing, rather they just leave to kind of assume. The cliffhangers are very well placed and destroy you inside, no doubt, but they're so masterfully done that you can't really be mad yes you can. It is kind of interesting, as well, to see how wars, coup de tats, and more occur in a more realistic fashion than having someone with magic blow up the front door of the castle and take over with no struggle (well...). If you're a fantasy fan, do read this entire franchise, because it is truly a work of art.

The other book that I must recommend is The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern. A few of you may remember that I read this book this past summer, and I wouldn't shut up about it afterwards. IT WAS THAT GOOD. There's no good way to describe this book other than magical. To give a brief description, the book has four main characters across three time periods that all tie together beautifully. And one of the main characters is you. The book starts and ends in your perspective, and often uses your perspective to either drop foreshadowing or tie together details you may have missed. Your perspective is also the only one that is never dated, meaning there is no distinct time as to when you would have visited, other than it took place after the initial events of the book. It is a story of a star crossed romance that has possibly been set before in many a time as hinted by one of the characters, but this time it ends much differently, with the conflict no longer going to occur from here on out. At the same time, many years in the future but also at the same time, a young boy dreams of joining the famed circus and nearly misses the chance of a lifetime but soon discovers that sometimes fate does strike twice. Honestly this is my favorite book and there is no chance that anything will probably ever surpass it. I finished this book in a few hours, the fastest I have ever finished a book, and I will have to read it again in the future because there are small details I know I missed that will take reading it again several times before I truly grasp it all.
