Top Ten Books I'd Give to Someone Who Doesn't Read
These are the books I'd give to someone who doesn't like to read. Although, for some people not even the best books will convert them to booklovers. One of my best friends admitted that he stopped reading Harry Potter after #5!

1. The Princess Bride - William Goldman (1973)
Pick a random person. I bet they love this movie. Tell them that its brilliance was a book before the movie ever existed!

2. The Phantom Tollbooth - Norman Juster (1961)
This is such a wonderful book. It's full of crazy creatures and worlds and adventures that are just off the wall. Everything is puzzling but fun at the same time.

3. Howl's Moving Castle - Diana Wynne Jones (1986)
If you've never read this book, stop reading this post and clicky on the picture to go buy it! Even if you've seen the movie, I highly recommend the book. 


4. Poison Study - Maria V. Snyder (2005)
This book is such an epic fantasy. Just go read the summary, seriously, and try to tell me you aren't dying to find out what happens. Plus, Valek is quite possibly the sexiest man ever.

5. Looking for Alaska - John Green (2005)
Anything John Green, but especially this one. Everyone should read John Green.


6. This Lullaby - Sarah Dessen (2002)
Giving a girl a Sarah Dessen book is like giving a mouse a muffin. Once you have a taste, you will always want more.

7. Sloppy Firsts - Megan McCafferty (2001)
This is your high school experience, except livened up and put in book form.

8. City of Bones - Cassandra Clare (2007)
Ignore all other paranormal books and hand this one to someone who doesn't like to read. They will want to read the sequel.


9. Beastly - Alex Flinn (2007)
A light read with a sweet romance is perfect for anyone who doesn't like reading, and for people who do like reading.


10. The Knife of Never Letting Go - Patrick Ness (2008)
Dystopian with so much action and impossible moral situations. This series is awesome for everyone!
