So, I have...

So, I have ran out of books I have not read and I actually want to read. On this thread, people will: A. Send: Help! I need to find a book! I like (random genre) books because (they are ___)!

B. Recommend books for people who make Help! posts.

Here's mine:

Help! I need to find a book! I just care about the book being funny and having an interestng plot or topic.

You might have already read them, but the Percy Jackson / Heroes of Olympus books are funny and have a good plot. I'd also recommend the Redwall books, which are really good and have funny parts

Penderwicks, Land of Stories, Harry Potter (I bet you've read them before, though) The Vanderveekers, Wildwood series, Withering by sea and Wormword Mire series, Where the Mountain Meets the Moon, and Nevermoor and Wundersmith seires, and The Evolution of Calpurtinia Tate.

I really enjoyed the Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place series by Maryrose Wood.  They're funny and the plot is a great one!  The reader for the audiobooks is amazing and I highly reccomend listening to them.

Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones is also a good, funny read.  The animation movie of it by Hayao Miyazaki is wonderful, though it varies from the book.

I hope you enjoy them!

AAH YES INCORRIGIBLE CHILDREN ARE AMAZING

The writing style is so unique and...cozy? And I love the characters...and the setting..and the plot... <3 <3 <3 They're probably my second favorite fantasy series next to Harry Potter.

Scrap my Help! message. I found a book.

But thank you for the suggestions.

Ohh! What is it? I might want to read it.

Ok, I have a book suggestion for the future even though you've already found one:

The Secret Series

It has an exciting plot AND the narrator is so funny! It's about a boy named Max-Earnest and Cassandra (or at least that's what the narrator calls them) who are trying to overtake a society called The Midnight Sun.

Also, what did you end up choosing?
