Top 5 "Stuff You" Books

In honor of Thanksgiving I'm going to do a blog post about my top 5 "stuff you" books. The ones that make you feel full and satisfied.

1. So you guys have probably figured out that I love fluffy chick books but honestly there is one that fills me up to the brim with happiness every single time I read it.  Let It Snow by Maureen Johnson, John Green and Lauren Myracle. First off this book has 3 amazing writers that worked together to create magic. Second, the names in this book are little treats themselves. Jubilee, Stewart, Jeb, The Duke, and Teagan are all names that add a quirky and interesting side to the story. Thirdly and Lastly, not only is there 1 love story but 3. This book will no doubt leave you full from all the fluffy, holiday love stories jam packed into this book.

2. I also love thrillers/mystery books. One of my favorites is Pivot Point by Kasie West. This book is a 'stuff you" book because it's a fresh breath of air. It fills you up with wonder and excitement. The main character in the book, Addie, has a special power in which she can see how a decision impacts her future. The book follows the two choices that she can make and how that path would play out. Both include love interests, danger and a mystery with her best friend. This book not only will fill you up but will keep you invested in it until the last page. Which incidentally is where I rushed out and bought the second book in the series...

The professional? author John Green

3. Going back into the great author John Green's books comes An Abundance of Katherines. *Sighs lovingly* Colin, the greatest main character ever to be written is the star of this book. A child prodigy that hasn't achieved anything great with his intelligence goes on a road trip to find opportunists and to run away from his ill-fated romances with not one but 18 separate Katherines. Along the way there is injuries, comedy and an amazing love interest: Lindsey. This book stuffs you with laughs and amazement as you read the text.

4.This next book is a little weird I have to admit but I love it too much to care. The Art of Wishing by Lindsay Ribar is a wonderful love story between Margo and a genie, yes a genie, Oliver. I love this book so much because while it's not realistic the romance that is in this book is unforgettable. It may be lacking cancer but it makes up for it with actual magic. Margo describes the feeling of magic as "More like the heat that you felt on your tongue after eating something spicy," (67). That elemen of magic makes the book so special. Reading this book I couldn't help but fawn over the clever ways that Oliver impressed and wooed Margo. This book filled me with the oh-so-dangerous faith in a perfect relationship.

5. I saved the best for last. I think this may be cheating but I created the rules of this prompt so I'm gonna put it in anyway. The Naturals series is by far the best books out of all of these. The series by Jennifer Lynn Barnes is so thrilling that I almost died waiting the 9 months it took for the second book to be released. Cassie, the main character is just so relate-able and the detail the book is written with made me feel like I was in it. There was no disappointment with this series and the thing it stuffed me with was suspense (the best thing)
