I haven’t read any iconic classics. I’m sure I’ll read some in High School though!
I’m going to say The Hunger Games series. Something is always happening and there’s plot twists popping up everywhere!
I’m going to say The Harry Potter series. I’m excited to see how the Cursed Child book is. But just like the rest of the series, I’m sure I’ll read it way later than everyone else.
Nothing comes to mind. I don’t really have an series’ that I want to read.
The Fangirl collectors edition, The Harry Potter book series collectors editions and the Eleanor and Park collectors edition just to name a few.
I don’t have any debut novels. Just more from Becky Albertalli, Nicola Yoon and Bill Kongisberg!
None! I don’t do any of that stuff.
