The Mortal Instruments Series!!

Do not take me too personally but who wants to be a werewolf or vampire here?? You will be probably surprised to know there is a race just like ours known as the shadow hunters, and they protect us(the mundanes) from demons which are trying to penetrate our earth from different dimensions. Just kidding!! This is the plot of the Mortal Instruments series written by Cassandra clair. It is action packed, and mysterious. There is a lot of suspense throughout the series.The last installment of the series(the 6th book) is yet to come this year. The protagonist Clary is a shadow hunter of the Mongestern family, however her mother flees at the time she's yet unborn, away from her scheming evil father, Valentine, and takes up a new identity. Clary lives a the life of a normal teenager, until her 16th birthday when she is detected to be a shadowhunter. The tale commences from this spot and goes a long way. There is a lot of potential in this novel, and its descriptions are pretty admirable as well!! If u want tips on faeries, vamps or werewolves don't forget to check it out :P

The Hunger Games!!

Greetings to you all and may the odds be ever in your favour.
Prim, Katniss's sister is  picked, to go compulsorily  to the Hunger Games[A brutal game organised by the capitol of Panem every year, where all participants from 13 districts have to murder each other, leaving a lone victor.], and here is where Katniss, the girl on fire makes an entry. She enacts an act of bravery by volunteering for her sister's place, plunging to her most expected death voluntarily. Who is chosen from the males, to be her fellow district competitor, the one who saved her from the brink of death years ago,Peeta. Action, rebellion and romance are all packed into this fun filled trilogy.You experience her pain, anxiety, fear, anger all at once! I think this is a fantastic book which one must really not miss. The movies were remarkably impressive as well, sticking to the plot.
