Anyone like Fearless and . .
Anyone like Fearless? It's this one about a girl born without the fear gene and she is a good kickbutt girl character.Do you guys know any other good strong female characters. Or have you read Fearless? My fave one is Heat#7.

I hate books like that. They take something that could -never- happen in real life and turn it into some dramatic teen book. It's pointless and stupid.

Who is the series by? I saw one by Francine Pascal- the creator of Sweet Valley High. If that's the one, I don't think I'd like it. I haven't read Sweet Valley for several years now. I'm sick of that type of thing. I'm hooked on Tolkien now, obviously. That's not gonna change.

Oh, chill. I didn't think that you were mad at all. I may read it at some point, just as soon as I finish another 20 more (mainly Tolkien related), but I'm not really into sci-fi.

We should probably be PMing this, but
I like fantasy (evidently), historical fiction and SOME sci-fi Some normal fiction is also good. |

Nar. I am very sad to say that I have read very few of the very popular fantasy books that others seem to love. (with the exception of Tolkien) The more popular books that I read are usually by Aussie authors, such as Isobelle Carmody (who wrote some sci-fi I think), Cecilia Dart Thornton and Garth Nix.
