I need book suggestions!
Having just finished...
Having just finished Watership Down, I am looking for some good books. I like: anything by Tamora Pierce, especially the Song of the Lioness quartet, Warriors (but not Power of Three), The Land of Elyon series (I've only read book one and part of book two, but I like them so far), Harry Potter, Black Beauty, and the like.

I've already read those. Sorry.
P.S. I also like the Ranger's Apprentice series.

Guardians of Ga'Hoole!!!!! It's animal fantasy about owls out to restore peace and destroy evil. It's pretty intense in some parts, but it's very suspenseful and exciting. Its more of an adventure and action book. There are 15 books in the series in all. The first and second books are kind of slow, but the 3rd book and the rest are great, so make sure to keep reading. If you don't like it by book 5, 6, or 7, don't keep reading, but I am on book 14 and I love it!!! Only 2 books more and I finish, then I will reread the series!

I read part of the first book, and I just didn't like it. It was creative and everything, but it was a touch too anthropomorphized even for me. I like a little anthropomorphism, and maybe more than a little at times (in books like Warriors and Watership Down that are just so good, it really contributes to the story more than anything else), but G o G'H's anthropomorphism was just annoying. And, in addition, there's the title! Ga'Hoole? Really? It's not saccharine like The Tail Of Emily Windsnap, but it's still really annoying. And the characters were uninteresting. And... *rants for a while* You get the point. No offense, or anything, I just don't like it.
The Ingo books are really good.

OMG Ok so I started to read that series and it was really good but then I couldn't find the next book so I stopped reading and then i went to Borders one day and saw the whole set and my mom bought it for me but when I started to read it I didn't like it anymore so now I'm stuck with all these books that I don't like. *sigh* Oh well.

What about the Ingo books by Helen Dunmore?

There is a sequal to Ingo?

I didn't like Guardians of Ga'Hoole either. My sister did, though, so maybe it's one of those things you either love or hate.

Yes, it's called The Tide Knot. And then comes The Deep, and then... *can't remember* *looks it up* Crossing Of Ingo. Out of those, I've only read The Deep (besides Ingo itself, of course), but I loved it!
Have you read Ingo? It's an amazing book, isn't it?

Have you read Percy Jackson and the Olympians? Or Uglies? Both of those series are really good...Eragon?...There are so many more that I just can't think of. :)

Here's one for you, Emily Windsnap. it's a really good book about a girl who is so afraid of water that she won't even take a bath! Well, of course she took showers...then she finds out an awesome secret about herself
. Then she goes on an advevture to find her dad, and then she finds out another secret about her dad, then, then, oh! You HAVE to read it!!!!

I didn't like Emily Windsnap. Besides, it copied off of Ingo.

I just thought of a book that I started to read and didn't like (so I didn't finish it), but that I would reccommend to anyone who likes the Guardians Of Ga'Hoole books.
It's called Swordbird, by Nancy Yi Fan, a 12-year-old girl.
