Here I am again, guys! I don't know what you thought about the last post in English, so I want you to tell me.
Well, today it's gonna be different. I told you the best sellers on Young Adult's category. When I checked witch books had been the best sellers of this week I saw they are almost the same than last week, so I wouldn't have news to tell.
So, today I'll introduce you to the best series of this week. I haven't read them yet, but I've seen them in bookstores in Brazil and I'll read them. I promise!
I think you know the Top 5 of this week. Let's see!
1 - The Maze Runner, por James Dashner
When the lift cranks open, the only thing Thomas remembers is his first name. But he's not alone - an army of boys welcomes him to the Glade, an encampment at the centre of a terrible maze. The Gladers have no idea why they're there, or what's happened to the world outside. And following the arrival of a girl with a message, they must find a way out - or die.
I won't tell you guys what happens in the other books 'cause it would be spoiler - do you know what it is? There's a movie based on the first book and it is very interesting...
2 - Divergent, by Veronica Roth
In Beatrice Prior's dystopian Chicago, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue - Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). On an appointed day of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the rest of their lives. For Beatrice, the decision is between staying with her family and being who she really is - she can't have both. So she makes a choice that surprises everyone, including herself. During the highly competitive initiation that follows, Beatrice renames herself Tris and struggles to determine who her friends really are - and where, exactly, a romance with a sometimes fascinating, sometimes infuriating boy fits into the life she's chosen. But Tris also has a secret, one she's kept hidden from everyone because she's been warned it can mean death. And as she discovers a growing conflict that threatens to unravel her seemingly perfect society, she also learns that her secret might help her save those she loves . . . or it might destroy her. Debut author Veronica Roth bursts onto the literary scene with the first book in the Divergent series - dystopian thrillers filled with electrifying decisions, heartbreaking betrayals, stunning consequences, and unexpected romance.
Divergent does not need words. Everyone (in the whole world) knows how famous this serie is, mostly between teenagers. The first movie came last year and Insurgent is arriving. Who else is curious?
3 - Diary of a Wimpy Kid, by Jeff Kinney
Greg Heffley finds himself thrust into a new year and a new school where undersize weaklings share the corridors with kids who are taller, meaner and already shaving. Desperate to prove his new found maturity, which only going up a grade can bring, Greg is happy to have his not-quite-so-cool sidekick, Rowley, along for the ride. But when Rowley's star starts to rise, Greg tries to use his best friend's popularity to his own advantage. Recorded in his diary with comic pictures and his very own words, this test of Greg and Rowley's friendship unfolds with hilarious results.
Hey, who doesn't know this dude? Greg is very known and the boys (mostly them) like him because of his stories, always funny and cool. I read some books and even being a girl I liked Greg's adventures and I think you would like too.
4 - The Selection, by Kiera Cass
The opportunity to escape the life laid out for them since birth. To be swept up in a world of glittering gowns and priceless jewels. To live in a palace and compete for the heart of gorgeous Prince Maxon. But for America Singer, being Selected is a nightmare. It means turning her back on her secret love with Aspen, who is a caste below her. Leaving her home to enter a fierce competition for a crown she doesn't want. Living in a palace that is constantly threatened by violent rebel attacks. Then America meets Prince Maxon. Graually, she begins to realize that the life she's reamed of may not compare to a future she never imagined.
A friend who read the books told me it is very interesting. But others don't think the same thing. So you need to read it to have an opinion but most readers want a movie. Yes?
5 - Heroes of Olympus, by Rick Riordan
From the same author of Percy Jackson's adventures, Heroes of Olympus is another serie that has delighted teenagers around the world. There are not films based on theses books but a lot of people hope there'll be!
That's all! What do you think? Are those series cool?
P.S.: Leave your comment! It's gonna be a pleasure to answer them :)
