7)  The Catcher In The Rye — J.D Salinger

A beautiful classic! Salinger refused from giving out movie rights to a production house so there won’t be a movie. But a reader can dream!

2)  The Lost Hero (Heroes of Olympus series) — Rick Riordan

The extraordinarily adventurous journey of seven demigods from two different camps come together to fight the second great prophecy.

Rick Riordan takes Greek mythology to a completely different level with the Heroes of Olympus series. The book was published right after Riordan completed the Percy Jackson books, and received just as much recognition as the previous one’s did.

1)  Shatter me — Tahereh Mafi

Tahereh has a unique way of portraying a dystopian sci-fi world. The lead character, Juliette is one of the strongest characters we’ve read about in a while. The writing is very different to what one usually reads, there are passages and lines that have been crossed out, making it a lot more appealing. Juliette is torn between Adam — who she thinks she loves, and Warner — someone she might truly love. Learning to control the disaster of a power she’s gifted with just adds to the difficulties she’s facing.

If turned into a movie, this one could be a huge hit!
