i normally read halo, and eragon, and stuff like that... but i just read the twilight series, and it was pretty good.
I'm personally reading the series "A Song of Ice and Fire." Pretty cool series if you ask me. It's fantasy.
Thanks, ill go look it up, the title just sounds cool. :o
You haven't read Harry Potter series I would definetly dive into that.
Comic Books are also good reads too if your interested in that stuff.

im looking into reading the harry potter series, in fact, im thinking of buying all 7 books right now. only $50 :D
Ah, never mind then. I tend to read nonfiction, so I think my suggestions would be a bit of a bore for you. 
Moved to Literature.
I would recommend the Xanth novels. I've enjoyed them for a couple years now and I love reading them.
Heres a piece of the plot from the first book "A spell for Chameleon"
Also there fairly funny books, lots of pun's

QUOTE
In this adventure, Bink is exiled to Mundania because he has (inadvertently) broken Xanth law by not having a magical talent. He returns to Xanth with Chameleon, a woman whose intelligence and beauty vary inversely depending on the time of the month, and the evil magician Trent who was exiled 20 years earlier for attempting to usurp the throne of Xanth.
QUOTE
Xanth (pronounced Zanth) is a fantasy world created by the prolific author, Piers Anthony. It is a land of mythical beasts and of magic. Maps of Xanth look suspiciously like the state of Florida and while inhabitants of Xanth have knowledge of our world - which they refer to as Mundania - the two worlds have little in common. At times, humans have been able to cross from our world into Xanth, and in fact, this is where all of the humans living there originally came from. All Xanthian-born humans have a single unique magical ability. Many of them have a simple and useless ability that is referred to as the "spot on the wall" magic (the person can magically cause a spot to appear on a wall), but the most rare individuals have what is considered a Magician (male) or Sorceress (female) caliber talent. For a time, there was a law which stated that when coming of age, all Xanthian citizens must display their magical talent to the king or face exile.
In addition to magic, Anthony makes very generous use of puns. For example:
While you might find centipedes in Mundania, you will find additional species including nickelpedes, dimepedes, and quarterpedes in Xanth
You may visit the Isle of View (hint: say it out loud) or go on a quest for the heaven cent while walking along the cube route
A night mare is actually a horse that delivers bad dreams, while a day mare brings daydreams
You might meet Maiden Taiwan, Hannah Barbarian, Anna Gram, or Justin Case
Nearly all of the protagonists of the books are adolescents, so there are a lot of coming of age type themes. This is handled with the concept of the Adult Conspiracy. Kids will be kids, and they continually want to know about things that adults think they do not need to learn about until they are "older". Some of these topics includes how to conjure the stork (where else would babies come from in a world of magic?), sowing wild oats, and panties.

I would suggest reading all of the Harry Potter books.
They're so much better and more detailed than the movies.
Especially the most recent movie, it was terrible and didn't follow the story of the book whatsoever.

Try Cirque Du Freak. There are 12 books about warring Vampire clans it's amazing :) Some more (although short) are the Deltora series. There's also Inkheart series (the movie SUCKED) Dragon Rider, Thief Lord, Orphanage(kinda like Halo), ummmm Left Behind if you're religious(it's like one of those epic books with a hint of God in it not those cheesy ones), Percy Jackson and the Olympians, The Fire Within, ummmmmm Black Hawk Down for a good non-fiction read(lots of language) oh and the Magyk series and the best of all Gatekeepers. It was written by the same guy as Diamond Brothers Mysteries(great books) and Alex Rider(even better) He recently stopped with Alex Rider and the sixth and last book is coming out in the next few months.
Just so you know, A Song of Ice and Fire isn't really a friendly book series. The characters aren't heroic, near invincible warriors, and magic is very rare and subtle. Plus, there's lots of adult themes. It's a lot heavier than, say, the first 3/4 of the Harry Potter series. On the other hand, it's got very good characters and whatnot -- They're just not superhuman.
I can't help but recommend all of Michael Crichton's to you.
My personal favorites are Airframe, Timeline, and Prey. Jurassic Park is an excellent read also.

Let's See: Give these a try:
The Ice Mark Trilogy
The Divide Trilogy
ALL Terry Pratchet books
The Skullduggery pleasent trillogy (Probaly more coming out, but 3 at the moment)
Twilight series
The Host (see if you can beat my reading time, almost 800 pages, I read it in a day!)
Those should keep you occupied for a while!

I found the Harry Potter books to be a very quick read, so it might be worthwhile just borrowing them from a friend or the library (but they are available cheap then buying them is fine too). Another series I enjoy is the Discworld series and you should definitely look favourably at anything by Terry Pratchett or Neil Gaiman. I quite enjoyed Tales of Earth Sea, but am not sure what others would make of it. Oh, and if you want a novel written by a Jagex employee then there is of course Redoubt.
I'm a big ASoIaF fan. It's a bit hard to get into at first and I agree with what MC says about it. It is an excellent universe and not as cliché as many fantasy novels and where it has clichés there is often a twist. I love that there isn't a single protagonist, that it has a large cast of characters and is very much adult, and how it is a world of grey that doesn't just rely on the typical "person down on their luck turns out to have a destiny and saves the universe" plotline. Unlike most fantasy you can't speed-read it, because you do need to pay close attention to follow it properly and keep track of all the characters and interweaving plots, but you are rewarded with a very rich experience.

What about the Mortal Engines series?
I'm reading Fever Crumb right now :)

I would recommend books by David Eddings (fantasy, awesome in my opinion), Orson Scott Card (sci fi), Robert Jordan (fantasy), Stephen King, Michael Crichton. The Hellgates series (based on game), Diablo series (based on game), Rangers Apprentice series are also good books.
Oh I was gonna say another series but forgot the name.... it was about this kid who fell in a hole and ended up finding a whole world under there with giant animals and a rat war.....if yall know what it's called please reeducate me on it

Harry Potter series is meh. They are alright.
My favorite author is Matthew Reily. He's an Australian writer. Very worth looking into.

Gregor the Overlander, written by Susan Collins, if I remember correctly.

I read it in 1 day, but that was just because I was on my holiday in france, and it rained so i had nothing to do lol. But IDK, I have began to like the HP books less after reading them multiple times.
If you like Twilight and Harry Potter, try The Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare. The third book is one of my favorite books ever.

I just found they slowly got worse in each book, and it's sort of, very simple writing. I prefer reading big heavier books.
But they aren't necessarily bad, they are better than a lot of books. :P

Simple writing is hated on too often. At least Harry Potter isn't like A Clockwork Orange, which is extremely difficult to read with the constant slang that makes no sense and isn't even realistic, as words don't get longer as time passes, they get shorter.
I prefer more easy to read and straightforward books like The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy and Dune (which I just started reading) over Lord of the Rings, which, even though it is great, can get really tedious at times.

Well obviously, as it's purpose is to simply entertain and get kids into reading. Still, for a kids series, it does it's job well.

The books grow up with you(ideally) the first 3 are for kids and teens, while the later are for teens and 6 and 7 for adult and mature readers
I loved the harry potter books (movies SUCKED RAAGE)
i also really loved watchmen and ofcourse The Zombie Survival Guide. It's pure genius
It's quite hard to tell someone what to read. When everyone has their own unique likes/dislikes, so not too sure.
I myself like mystery I suppose? I don't read that often so I cannot help you out too much there. Sorry =\

Add Harry Potter to the 'definately buying' list! 
And I love the Narnia books, but they're very short so the 7 books only take one week to read. I've read them all about 5 times so they're probably my favorites ...

If you're interested in some christian novels, I would recommend the Dragon Keeper Series by Donita K. Paul. I really liked it, but I went through it fairly quickly.
Michael Crichton is my favorite author of all time.
Although, Ender's Game was probably one of the best books I've ever read.

So Many books I could Suggest, so little time.
So first I'm going to reiterate on those people have already suggested.
The Host by Stephanie Meyer-Far better than the twilight books, it is more aimed at the older audience.
The Mortal Engines Trilogy by Phillip Reeve-A brilliant series of books, all based on what would happen to the citizens of earth if it were in a nuclear fallout.
The Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini- More commonly known as the Eragon books, they follow the journey of Eragon and his dragon Saphira.
Books that haven't been suggested:
His Dark Materials Trilogy by Phillip Pullman-The story of Lyra and her daemon, as they uncover worlds and save the universes.
Eon/Eternity by Greg Bear-A sci-fi series for adults, this series involves a asteroid coming towards earth from the future; and the Russians becoming unhappy with their level of access on it, so causing nuclear fallout.
The Keys to the Kingdom Series by Garth Nix-These books deals with a house that leads to an alternate world where Arthur Penthaligon has to defeat 7 different people to get his inheritance.
The Stone Trilogy by Graham Edwards- Another Story of an alternate world, but this time it is a giant wall, with dragons and other mythological creatures the heroes have to face.
I have many other books I'd be happy to recommend in my two bookshelves, just ask if you want any more

Although somewhat irrelevant at this point the clockwork orange slang is a fusion of russian and english, it's one of those things you get when 2 completely different cultures live is a close proximity. It would be similar to spanglish(in concept). I never liked the writing style of it though so never got far.

Yeah, the Tales of Earth Sea are absolutely amazing, really well written and have an amazing story. If your into the fantasy then I recommend reading Dune, being one of the best sci-fi novels around. Battle Royale is an amazing book also, especially if you like the gore
. It's all about a group of school kids who are kidnapped by the government, put on an island, given weapons and only the winner can leave, there're other catches too but I won't delve into them. It's a kinda sick book, but amazingly written and really interesting as it studies and reveals so many aspects of psychology and how friends ally or turn against each other depending on circumstances etc. For a classic, a Clockwork Orange is also really good, but it might be hard to get your hands on it depending on where you live. I know it's still banned in several places.

I read the Uglies original trilogy in 3 days, then the first two Twilight books, then Jurassic Park in a week.
I can't really remember the number of pages, but I'm pretty sure it was about 1.3k.
Well anyways, I also recommend the Uglies series and The Hunger Games.
