I had read total of seven books this month. They include:
1.The Book Thief
Author: Markus Zusak
Genre: Historical fiction, Young Adult
Set in Nazi Germany, this rather haunting novel tells the story of young Liesel, a ten year old, who is sent to a foster home where she grows up. Beautifully written, it was one of the best books I had ever read.
2.Delirium
Author: Lauren Oliver
Genre: Dystopian, Sci-Fi, young adult
Comment: It takes place in a world where love is considered a disease, and where everyone has to undergo an operation at the age of eighteen to make them incapable of love. The protagonist, Lena finds herself, a few days before her operation, falling in love, or catching the ‘deliria’ as it is called in that world, with a mysterious young boy, Alex.
3.Four

Genre: Dystopian, Sci-Fi, Young Adult
A spin-off of the famous Divergent trilogy, it is a collection of stories told from the point of view of Four, a.k.a Tobias Eaton, who was one of the most important characters in Divergent.

5.The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer
Author: Michelle Hodkin
Genre :Paranormal, fantasy, young adult
Mara Dyer is haunted by nightmares ever since an accident killed her best friends. Her family decides it is in their best interests if they move to a different place. Mara tries to fit in in her new school, however, things are not as they seem to be.
6. 1984
Author: George Orwell
Genre: Political, social science, dystopian
Set in a chilling world, where every move is controlled by authority, where free thought is a crime, and where language itself is designed to limit an individual’s vision. I don’t usually enjoy classics, but this was…..chilling.

Genre: Fantasy, Young Adult, Romance
The final installment in the Selection Series, Princess Eadlyn has to choose a groom among the six finalists who made it to the top in the Selection.
