    Harry Potter, I've read the series several times and have grown up with the characters which was really cool.

    James Patterson, Dan brown, I'm a sucker for thrillers haha. I just finished the first book of the hunger games trilogy and it's GOOD

    I just started reading William Johnstone books, they are pretty good pulp books. The only thing that I dont like about the Johnstone books is he uses clips in his guns and not magazines!
