Top Five Series I Need to Finish

Hello everyone!
Today I wanted to share the top five series I need to finish. Whether I've only read the first book, or have only made it halfway through.

1. Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling
This may be a surprise to a lot of people. I've only read the first four books, and am slowly making my way through the fifth book currently. I really need to finish this series ASAP. I know I'll love the last three books more than movies if they're anything like the first four.

2. Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare
I read the first two books in this series forever ago and just never continued. I really need to because I love this world and the characters in it.

3. Shatter Me by Tahera Mafi
First of all, these covers are so pretty. I've only ever read the first book, and that was a few years ago. I meant to keep reading the second two books, but I never got around to it. With Restore Me coming out, it gives me the perfect excuse to reread the first book and continue on with the series.

4. Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer
I've only read the first book, and I really enjoyed it. I don't know why I haven't continued with the rest of this series yet. I love the concept and the characters. I really need to finish this series soon.

5. The Grisha Trilogy by Leigh Bardugo
Again, I've only read the first book in this trilogy, but I really enjoyed it. I've told myself I have to finish this trilogy before I can read the Six of Crows duology. I've heard mixed things about this trilogy, but I liked the first book so hopefully, I'll like the rest.

Let me know what some of the series are that you haven't finished in the comments or what series you think I should finish ASAP. Thanks for stopping by.

Five Favorite Books

Hello everyone! 
I've recently decided to change the focus of my blog from cards to books. I have a strong love of reading and wanted to share that with you. I thought to start out I would share 5 of my favorite books/series. 

1. Michael Vey Series by Richard Paul Evans

This series is about a group of teens who have electrical powers. It is full of fun adventures and fantastic characters. The main character is named Michael Vey, and throughout the series, his mission is to stop Hatch and his evil plans. I fell in love with this series. The books aren't terribly long and are super quick to read. I highly recommend these books to anyone. They won't disappoint, I promise.

2. The Selection Series by Kiera Cass

I describe these books as The Bachelor in book form but geared towards teens. It's set in a dystopian society called Illea that is ruled by a monarchy. The main character is America who is sent to the palace along with 34 other girls for the prince, Maxon Schreave, to pick his future bride. I didn't expect to love these books as much I did. They are fluffy reads and don't take very long to complete. I think of the first three as more of a trilogy and the last two as companion novels. I recommend you read this series if you're looking for something light and fun to read. 

3. Keeper of the Lost Cities Series by Shannon Messenger
This series is a more recent discovery of mine. It was recommended to me by one of my close friends, and I wasn't expecting to like it because it was middle grade. I was thoroughly surprised at how much I enjoy this series. It is about Sophie Foster who was raised in the human world but finds out she is actually an elf. I love how this elvin society is run. I love reading about all the mischief Sophie and her group of friends gets into. I recommend that you read this series if you're looking for something full of adventure and jokes.

4. Wings Series by Aprilynne Pike
I've never read a fairy book quite like this series. I love how the author went about writing this series. This book follows Laurel who discovers she is a fairy. This series focuses on how she adjusts to this discovery and the decisions she has to make about staying with the humans or living with the fairies. If you love books about fairies, you will definitely love this series.

5. The Cinderella Society by Kay Cassidy

I picked this book up looking for a fun read, and it ended up being one of my favorite books. It's about a group called The Cinderella Society that focuses on helping girls feel good about themselves and become more confident. The main character, Jess, is welcomed into the society and has "sisters" who help her on her journey of finding herself. I really liked this story and made me wish there really was a Cinderella Society. I recommend reading this book if you want a cute story about finding yourself and not changing into what you think others want you to be.

Those are only a few of my favorite books, and I love them all equally. Let me know what your favorite books are in the comments.
