The Inheritance cycle by Christopher Paolini

YES

Right so I'm assuming nobody has read Chronicles of Prydain, but whatever.
And Westing Game is REALLY GOOD. Definitely one of my favourite books.

Other favourite underrated books of mine:
The City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau (who wrote sequels and FRIKEN RUINED THE SERIES)
I Am Princess X by Cherie Priest
Counting by 7s by Holly Goldberg Sloan
The Underneath by Kathi Appelt
The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman
Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor
The Andromeda Strain by Michael Chrichton

STRANGE THE DREAMER IS SO GOOD!!!!!

SAME!
(I would do big font but IDK how to yet XD )
(Also the ending just ripped my heart out and tore it to pieces)

I'd die for Lazlo and Sarai without hesitation. And Minya!!! I loved her so much!

Yes. Minya. Chubby little annoying brat who somehow friken captures your heart and holds it hostage.
Also Lazlo and Sarai are FRIKEN ADORABLE.
And worldbuilding? AHHHHHHHHH I'M SO JEALOUS HOW DID SHE DO THAT

And also Feral and Sparrow and Ruby. Poor Sparrow. When she walked in on Feral and Ruby I was so sad…

SPARROW!!! MY LITTLE ORCHARD WITCH <3

Have you read Muse of Nightmares yet?? Because you learn so much more about Minya in that!

Okay so I have no idea what is happening with that book BUT I HEARD GRAVEYARD BOOK AND THAT BOOK IS MY SHIT!

TBH I was too frustrated/depressed at the ending of Strange that I refused to read any more but I've been thinking about it recently. Unfortunately, the friken libraries are closed.

And Graveyard Book is awesome. Silas is so awesome. And so is Liza. And so is the Sleer. Gahhhh I just love that book so much… Neil Gaiman holds a very special, somewhat padded-cell, place in my heart. <3

I liked The Graveyard Book.

Neil Gaiman is another author I've started following pretty closely. I just adore horror and death books. My favorite collection of short stories is Monster Girls and Slasher Boys (or is it the other way around…?). If y'all need random history facts about death (especially"vampires" like lemme know)

The City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau (who wrote sequels and FRIKEN RUINED THE SERIES)

I read the whole series when I was younger (except for the newest one, but I think that’s a bunch of novellas) and I actually thought they were pretty good.

The book hurricane child (by Kacen Callender) is also really good >.<

The City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau (who wrote sequels and FRIKEN RUINED THE SERIES)

Ehh. City of Ember is the best one though.

Oops I hated City of Ember.

Oops I hated City of Ember.
