Unless you have been living under a rock, it has been impossible to miss the hype surrounding the premier of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 in theaters this weekend. I will confess, I am HUGE Harry Potter fan. I love the books, I love the movies, and I am super excited about the new movie. Rather then do a "traditional" book review this week, I thought I would do something a little different. After completing the book series, I felt a little let down...what am I going to read now? Now that the movies are coming to an end, I am starting to feel that same let down. So I have been on a quest to find more book series to love. Here is my list of books for "If you love Harry Potter then you must read...."
His Dark Materials Trilogy (The Golden Compass; The Subtle Knife; The Amber Spyglass) by Philip Pullman
The Lord of the Rings Trilogy and The Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien
Artemis Fowl Series by Eoin Colfer
Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket
Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis (The Voyage of the Dawn Treader will soon be released as a movie)
Charlie Bone Series by Jenny Nemmo
The Mysterious Benedict Society Series by Trenton Lee Stewart
Theodosia Series by R.L. LaFevers
Redwall Series by Brian Jacques
Percy Jackson and the Olympians Series by Rick Riordan
39 Clues Series by multiple authors
Twilight Saga by Stephenie Meyer (see my earlier posts on this one...sorry, still don't like it, but I know many of you do)
Song of the Lioness Series by Tamora Pierce
