Endurance, by Alfred Lansing

I just started reading a new book called Endurance by Alfred Lansing. It is about an explorer named Ernest Shackleton who sails through the arctic. One day, his ship gets stuck between two chunks of ice and he and his crew are forced to walk through Antarctica on foot. The book immediately starts off with action and adventure. I would recommend it to anyone who likes suspense and adventure. It reminds me a little bit of The Martian by Andy Weir, which I also highly recommend.

City of Fallen Angels, By Cassandra Clare

I seriously cannot put this book down, it's so good! Jace is "possessed," and Clary and all those who are close to him are trying to save him, but to the Clave have different plans, because if they kill Jace, then the bond between him and Sebastian will force Sebastian to die as well. All at the same time, Jace and Clary are drawn toward each other, and Clary is faced with a difficult choice- she'll do anything for Jace- Jace Lightwood, but is this Jace the Jace she knew before?

The Hate U Give, by Angie Thomas

The main character of this book is Starr. One of her friends got shot by a white police officer and now Starr has to speak about what happened that night. From Gangs trying to shut her up to riots and protests about Starr's friend. This book is one of the best books in my opinion.

Prince of Tennis series

I really enjoyed the books. They were action packed and it really made me feel nervous when it looked like they were about to lose.
