Recommend A...(1)

Hey guys! So this week I am trying out a new meme to see what I (and y'all) think! Recommend A is a book meme hosted by Chick Loves Lit. Basically a topic is given every week and you recommend a book that goes with that topic. This weeks topic is Recommend A..trilogy.
*All books are linked to their Goodreads page


So, I like lots of trilogy's. But two in particular are sticking in my mind


The first trilogy being the Across the Universe trilogy. If you have read my reviews for either of these books, then you must know how much I adore these books and how excited I am for Shades of Earth to come out! It is set for release in January of 2013.

I wasn't really expecting to like these, but the quirky sci-fi world just drew me in from the beginning and I fell in love! Plus, a hot dude rules the ship...what could be better!
Across the Universe (Book 1)                                                              A Million Suns (Book 2)



The next trilogy I highly recommend is the Divergent trilogy. I read Divergent last October and absolutely fell in love. So, when Insurgent became available for pre-order guess what I did? I pre-ordered it. Call me crazy, but I have yet to read Insurgent! I know I will love it, but I am saving it for the perfect time. The third book is currently untitled, but it is set for release in 2013.
 This was one of my first ventures into dystopia, and it quickly became one of my favorite genres!
I also absolutely adore these covers. Gorgeous, right?

 Divergent (Book 1)                                                                                        Insurgent (Book 2)


So, what do you think of this meme? Keeper or no? I have to say, I quite enjoyed sharing my recommendations with you. After all that's what this blog is all about!

  1. Across the Universe and Divergent are two that people KEEP recommending to me yet I have not yet managed to pick them up. My students are OBSESSED with Divergent & Insurgent so I have vowed to read them this summer!

  2. Wasn't a big fan of Across the Universe, but I'm hoping I'll like it more once I read the sequel.

    Divergent was good. Currently impatiently waiting to get my hands on a copy of Insurgent.

    1. A Million Suns was really good too. It was a bit different from Across the Universe. Thanks for stopping bu=y!

  3. I have heard so many good things about both of these trilogies but have never read themD: Despite it's popularity, Divergent doesn't really appeal to me, but Across the Universe sounds intriguing. Maybe I'll pick it up one of these days!

  4. I like how you chose incomplete trilogies. Its true how you can already be hooked - and are probably more hooked - with these. I keep meaning to read across the universe! And looove divergent!

    1. Quite honestly I just chose trilogies I love, not really paying attention to completeness or not. Definitely read Across the Universe!
