Recommendations
These recommendations vary on many different levels. I’ll sometimes post plays, other times drama, or action, or young adult, etc. I am an avid reader who explores pretty much everything, but I am not patient enough to separate these books into different genres. I apologize, but you’ll just have to explore them without any biases based on genres ;) Also, the majority of these books have yet to be released (unless you’re reading this in 2013).
Happy reading!
