I couldn't even begin to tell you. My reading interests are so far across the board, I dabble in a lot of different genres.

But if you're looking for YA books I liked The Reformed Vampire Support Group, The Kingdom series by Cynthia Voigt, Harry Potter, Lord of the Flies, Peter Pan (way different than the Disney movie btw), A Wrinkle in Time, Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH, and the Water series by Kara Dalkey. Also if you like Buffy the Vampire Slayer there is a series of books with short stories that read a lot like the tv series. I suspect they might be written by the same writers for the tv show.

Thanks guys.
Forgot to metion I'm not a HP fan or much of a vampire fan either.(Although I do love the original Dark Shadow tv series. I think it's just hit or miss when it comes to vampires.)

Pink Weeds- Lord of the Flies and NIMH are 2 of my favorites! So I'm sure I'll like some of your other suggestions.

07alihic- I haven't heard of those yet. I have some google-ing to do

Also if you're not on Goodreads I suggest you check it out. It will take the books you've read and recommend books based off of those ones.

Read Starters by Lissa Price. It's really good. I just finished it and i'm dying to buy the next book. If you liked The Hunger Games, you'll love it.

If you're looking for a longer series, try Gregor the Overlander. It's also by Suzzane Collins and it's got five books in the series.

Or try the Uglies series by Scott Westerfeld. It's really futuristic. A combination of Starters and The Hunger Games. It also has five books.

Try reading "Divergent" and "Insurgent" by Veronica Roth. They are absolutely fantastic, and I think they are perfect for HG fans. The idea is completely different than the Hunger Games, but the feeling and suspense are similar. I would highly recommend these books.

definitely agree with recommendations for Cassandra Clare and Tamora Pierce, Im a huge fan of both and have been reading Tamoras stuff since I was about 11!

Also there's a trilogy called the Seventh Sword by Dave Duncan the first book is called the Reluctant Swordsman which is just brilliant Happy
