    I liked the Sabriel/Lirael/Abhorsen series. I also like all of Tamora Pierce's series, Artemis Fowl, and the Half-blood chronicles. Ummm... I can't think of anything else right now. My brain isn't working too well..

            Well I love anything By Meg Cabot....And Yeah and Tomora Perice (sp)
            "We pray for our sorrows to end,
            and hope that our hearts will blend.
            Now I will step forward to realize this wish.
            And who knows:
            starting a new journey may not be so hard
            or maybe it has already begun.

                I'll amend that; there are three books in the Discworld series that are specifically kids' books: The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents, The Wee Free Men, and A Hat Full of Sky. These can be good to get started on if you just want to check them out and see if you like his stuff, and then go on to the "adult" ones, which anyone can usually like- my younger brother and sister, who were probably around nine and eleven when Maurice came out, read that first and Hedley, the 11 year old, (now 13) went on to read the rest, while Freya hasn't, but probably will. *shrugs* Just thought I'd mention that.

                      The Chanter's of Tremaris Trilogy
                      His Dark Materials Trilogy
                      Nancy Drew books

                        *covers Rupert Grint's face* I can't take him staring out at me! Aaaah!

                        *calms down* Hmmm...most of mine have been mentioned.
                        -Harry Potter
                        -Wind On Fire Trilogy
                        -Artemis Fowl
                        -Sabriel/Lirael/Abhorsen
                        -His Dark Materials
                        -Protector of the Small (my fave Tamora Pierce)
                        -A Series of Unfortunate Events

                        Has anyone read Tithe? It's next on my reading list. And, just out of curiosity, what about Faerie Wars? I really liked that book.

                        Speaking of Artemis Fowl, I love talking about this, but after you read the third one, did you think there'd be another? I didn't, because <span class="ev_code_WHITE">it seemed so final, with the mind-wipe and everything. He could have ended it there and it would have been perfect. Not like I don't want another one, but that would have been GREAT.</span> What did you guys think? And what about the movie? I haven't heard anything lately...

                            The Wind on Fire Trilogy was so awesome! The first one was my favorite--I love stuff with messed-up civilizations that seem perfect...screwy I know...like the Giver and the Shadow Children books. I need to reread the latter.

                              I haven't read the Wind on Fire Trilogy yet, but I guess I should because by what you guys say, it sounds really good ;-)

                              Has anyone read The Chanters Of Tremaris trilogy by Kate Constable? only the first book is out so far and it is called the Singer of All Songs. It's really good and I can't wait til the second book comes out!

                              I need to add another series to my list:
                              His Dark Materials Trilogy

                              Phillip Pullman is an amazing author ;-)
