Heir to the Sky-
This book is by Amanda Sun, and it's a really good fantasy book. The main character is Kallima, or Kali, and she's the daughter of the Monarch of Ashra and her lands, which are floating islands! I just finished it, and I love it! In the book, she falls down to the earth, which was filled with monsters a long time ago, and she meets a monster-hunter, Griffin. It's really good!
The Sisters Grimm Series-
I think it's by Michael Buckely, but I'm not sure. It's really good, and it's about two sisters named Sabrina and Daphne Grimm, descendants of the brothers Grimm!
Out of the ones that have already been said, I love The Lions of Little Rock, Esperanze Rising, and The War That Saved My Life!

@Dandelion- I read The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate and I really liked it, but I dodn't know it had a sequel. What is the sequel called?
@All CBers-
I'm reading The Hunger Games for the first time right now. I finished the first one in almost exactly 1 day, and I started Catching Fire this afternoon and Ive already read about 1/3 of it.
I reccomend:
~Anything by Wendy Mass, especially the 11 Birthdays series
~One for the Murphys and Fish in a Tree by Linda Mullaly Hunt (They aren't a series, they're just both by the same author)
~Anything by Cyntia Lord, especially Handful of Stars because it's the one I read most recently and I remember the details of it.
~Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library, by Chris Grabenstein
~Anything by Stuart Gibbs. He is definitely one of my favorite authors, but if you don't like mysteries, then he probably isn't the kind of autor you would like.

@Dragonrider: I know you asked Dandelion what the sequel is called, but I recently read it so I know the title. Here it is: The Curious World Of Calprunia Tate. Also, yes, Wendy Mass is great! Every Soul A Star is one of my favorites by her! And...FIsh In A Tree is also great!

@HSG- Thanks! I really liked Every Soul a Star too, but I read it a few years ago so I don't remember the whole story.

Okay peeps, this is for anyone who likes the Warriors series; or anyone else!
Anyway, it's called Survivors, and it's also bu Erin Hunter. It's about dogs, and its great!! I also re-reccomend Warriors and Wings Of Fire, along with the Unwanteds and Harry Potter. As for the others, I haven't read them yet, but I'll see if I can find them at my library.
Peace out.
