Books I've read lately that are really awesome

I've read lots and lots of amazing books lately, here's a few I recommend:

1. Atlantis Rises by T. A. Barron - Full of action, adventure and mystery
2. The Work and the Glory by Gerald Lund - #1-#4 (I still have 5 to finish in this series)Fun historical fiction/nonfiction, it is a fun way to learn about Church History
3. Calvin & Hobbes: The Complete Collection by Bill Watterson - These are the funniest cartoon books ever, Calvin is ridiculous
4. Spirit Animals Book 1: Born Wild by Brandon Mull - I love the idea of having a bond with a spirit animal that you must discover, I think if I had a spirit animal it would be a jaguar
5. Seven Wonders Book 1: Colossus Rises by Peter Larangis - kind of like Percy Jackson and Indiana Jones mixed together!
6. The Heroes of Olympus: Books 1-3 by Rick Riordan - the Greek and Roman Demigods have to work together to defeat the giants released by Mother Earth.  I love Greek and Roman mythology
7. The Penderwicks Book 1 - by Jeanne Birdsall- summertime magic, a tame rabbit and a treasure filled attic make this a fun book to read
8. Tattoo of Death : Choose Your own Adventure by R.A. Montgomery - I love choose your own adventure books because you get to choose your own fate and if you make a wrong choice you can go back and alter the course of the entire story.
