I love Harry Potter, and I just finished the Twilight series. I am usually not into the whole fantasy thing with the exception of these two books though. I love love stories...any good suggestions?
 
I suggest The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series! I'm not sure exactly what kind of genres that you like, but for me....I luved 'em!
 
I adored both Harry Potter and Twilight, and also this series, so maybe you'll like it, too. The first one is called "Uglies" and is about, well, it's hard to explain. Here's a summary from the author himself:

"Uglies is the first book of the trilogy. The second book is Pretties and the third is Specials. It's about a world in which everyone has an operation when they turn sixteen, making them supermodel beautiful. Big eyes, full lips, no one fat or skinny. This seems like a good thing, but it's not. Especially if you're one of the uglies, a bunch of radical teens who've decided they want to keep their own faces. (How anti-social of them.)"

Also, there is a fourth one called "Extras", sort of a epilogue, after all of the events in the first three books.
Scott Westerfeld has also written other series that I enjoyed, including "Peeps", and "The Midnighters". Check them out. =)
 
Have you read the Narnia series? If you you have strong reading skills, you may like the Lord of the Rings series. You might even grown an interest in learning their Elven language.

Just a thought.

But if you are not interested in fantasy novels, then maybe you would enjoy "Fast Food Nation" or "Nickel and Dimed". These books are about reality and society.

I love the Harry Potter series. And these books were good to read when I wasn't feeling the fantasy series.

Hope you find this helpful.
 
I just finished reading a good one about the days leading up to the end of the Mayan Calendar in December of 2012. It's a big story, but a page turner. It's part thriller and all excitement. Gave me a lot to think about. I like stories like this. It's called "Sabbath-rest" and it's written by a guy named Steve Daley.
