So Harry Potter's done...now what do I read?

I've had several students in the library looking for books to read now that the Harry Potter series is complete and they want something similar. Here are a few suggestions that are ALL available at the PRHS library.

Looking for action-packed adventure?

The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan (I review it here)








Silverwing by Kenneth Oppel







Alex Rider series by Anthony Horowitz (a review of the first book in the series is here).








The whole good vs. evil clash more your thing?

Eragon by Christopher Paolini









Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien









The Golden Compass by Philip Pullman









The Dark is Rising sequence by Susan Cooper









Do you like reading about characters who have powers that are either different or magical?

Meg Cabot's Mediator series










Twilight by Stephenie Meyer (reviewed here)









Tithe by Holly Black (reviewed here)









Peeps by Scott Westerfeld (reviewed here)









Perhaps you really like the fact that Harry Potter lives in a bit of a different world beside our own.


The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis









The Spiderwick Chronicles by Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black








Pendragon series by D.J. McHale
