I've been a book blogger since early this year, so many of my favourite books I read before I joined! Here is my Top 5 Favourites from before I started blogging! Geek Girl series - Holly SmaleI met the Geek Girl series while on a quest for books about modelling, as I was very interested in it at the time. Geek Girl was a title I'd seen at shops and the library before, but I thought it'd be pretentious and annoying so I never picked it up, but when I finally did I ended up loving it! I'm still so sad the series is over now! I'd definitely recommend this to anyone, because it's sweet and funny, and altogether a lovely read. Goodreads:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13621089-geek-girl?ac=1&from_search=true CHERUB series - Robert MuchamoreThe CHERUB series was my first YA love, starting when I was about 10, I think. It's got loads of books, so it kept me occupied for years, and I'm still not through it right now. For the main series I'm missing one book, as I have the first five in Dutch, but the second book isn't available in Dutch anymore anywhere, and it would mess up my aesthetic on my shelves to get a different edition. I haven't read any of the spin-off series, but if they make it to my library I definitely will! Goodreads: www.goodreads.com/book/show/1166131.The_Recruit?ac=1&from_search=true The Hunger Games series - Suzanne CollinsThe Hunger Games series was introduced to me by a teacher when I was 13. She was my Dutch teacher and read a chapter from the first book to the class, and I fell in love. I read all the books, and when the movies started coming out I went to each one with that teacher and a few classmates. The Hunger Games series is still very dear for me, partially because of those good memories. Goodreads: www.goodreads.com/book/show/2767052-the-hunger-games?ac=1&from_search=true The Fault in Our Stars - John GreenIn 2012 I started getting into Youtubers, and one of the channels I loved most was the Vlogbrothers channel. I learnt about John Green that way, and of course he spoke about his books, so I got curious and read them. I really loved the Fault in Our Stars! By now, I've come to think that his books are a bit pretentious at times, but they still hold a special place in my heart. Goodreads: www.goodreads.com/book/show/11870085-the-fault-in-our-stars?ac=1&from_search=true The Neptune Conspiracy series - Polly HolyokeBefore I started Book blogging, I used to just go to a bookshop and buy whatever seemed interesting, without caring about whether it was popular or not. I have to admit that my reading choices are more geared towards reading what is popular these days. The Neptune Conspiracy is one that I bought by just reading the back and deciding it was interesting. It never made me regret that decision, as it's great! It's a new take on dystopias, taking place underwater!
