For me, it's the McChicken Redwall, the best children's book series

>>10439649
will he ever be evil again? the only good book is the first couple when he was a piece of shit

it's emo

The best children's book, hands down, is Moby Dick.

2666 is alright. Cormac McCarthy could be considered "of our time" kind of

>>10439804
Yes

>>10439824
White fang

>>10439649
i think you'll find skulduggery pleasant is the true thinking man's ya series

>>10439649
plebs will disagree, but it's A Series of Unfortunate Events

>>10440859
This

The Virgin Harry Potter vs the Chad ASoUE

>>10439649
That Artemis guy sounds and looks like your typical 4chan permavirgin incel. All he needs is a fedora.

ummm lets see

Harry Potter has 8 top tier KINO movies

the other two losers have nothing

>>10441235
What is a Kino?

>>10441471
Harry Potter movies

>>10440859
Lemony snicket is THE patrcian children books author

>>10441855
I saw the movie and really wanted to fuck the shit out of the girl in it (it's ok I was a boy)

Infinite meme

>>10442086
You're a meme.

>>10439649
pendragon and keys to the kingdom are the superior children's novels

Little girls in Junior High liked Artemis Fowl.

But they didn't like me.

Mortal Engines, with Artemis Fowl as a close second.

>>10439707
An excellent choice

Harry Potter.

>>10439970
Pretty sure we're talking about children's books kino bud

>>10440859
That series was one of the greatest rides I've ever been on. The only thing that surpasses it as the Patrician's choice of YA lit is Narnia.

>>10440859
I read the first 6 but grew up before he bothered finishing the series. Should I go back and read them all

>>10440363
god i loved this series so much and i had such a huge crush on him. fucked me up sexually for life

>>10442519
eyyuhhh dis guy ehhh got et

>>10441855
this
i read all twelve of that one thing when i was younger

>>10439649
Perhaps

>>10440859
Biggest waste of time ever. Why pay for 13 books that all have the same beginning, middle, and end?

did anyone read pic related as a kid? It was my favorite series growing up.

>>10443411
I read absolutely nothing as a kid

>>10443128
Yeah, he's what got me into reading.

>>10440859
ding ding ding — what other YA series alludes to the Pynch?

> no Ranger's Apprentice

>>10444600
Literally who?

>>10441471
kino is a word that /tv/ uses for only the best films.

kino > film > movie > flick

>>10439649
redwall
fuck niggers

>>10439649
>No Alex Rider, Cherub or Hovercar Racer

>tfw read percy jackson in the original greek

Bartimaeus, you dummies.

>>10445192
It's not written by a greek

>>10443411
>When pseud is your first name

enid blyton anyone?

>>10445453
literally JK Rowling of the 40s

if you didn't read Narnia and The Lord of the Rings as a kid, what were your parents doing?

Can't believe this bait thread got so many replies.

>>10445461
I read those too though, along with redwall
I liked all of them
there was also that one series based on the arthurian legends, the name was something like middle-crossing or something, I forget. It was pretty good as well.

>>10445494
>here was also that one series based on the arthurian legends, the name was something like middle-crossing or something, I forget. It was pretty good as well.

I know what you're describing but I can't remember the name, but it was very good

Also, did anyone else read the Alex Rider books? Class.

I hate books

>>10446043

>>10446057
That's a shit cookie

>>10446057
would love some 'y 'za right now

>>10439649
Percy Jackson is superior unless you count in Heroes of Olympus

>>10443028
I remember walking into school with a hardcover copy thinking I was the coolest kid on the block.

classmates called it stupid and I never really recovered

>>10445223

This

>>10442163
Fuck yeah man Garth Nix had a really interest IP with that series

Owl fantasy is the true childhood kinography, everyone else leave

If it's recent enough to be considered A Wizard of Earthsea is the thinking mans choice.

>>10445265
It's a pseudonym you moron

>>10448077
???

>>10447816
Sounds like something that turns your sons infto fedoralords.

>>10448789
Correct

Are Discworld books considered too adult around here to qualify for this thread, or was I just more advanced as a young teen than most of the plebs here?

>a-at least the books were good though
"No!"

>>10450177
Who said that?

>>10443028

>>10450204
Cute guy

>>10440332
I read White Fang when I was in fifth grade and loved it. I wanted a dog just like the one in the book. At my recommendation, my friend also read it about the same time and turned into a furry. I've always felt a little guilty about how terrible his life turned out, but on the other hand who the fuck identifies with a dog.

>>10442037
yea same tbqh

>>10442037
she did a movie where you get to stare at her nubile body. check it out.

>>10451075
Like the classic ancient texts of 4chan say "Too old, do not want"

>>10439707
First post, best post.

Would you read an LWA novelization?

>>10444600
Ranger's apprentice was surprisingly so damn good. A shame I only read the first four books and never got the other ones and now I'm on the borderline of being too old for that shit.

>>10451075
ugly

who /shane/ here?

>>10439649
Karl May
Dumas
Jack London
Dickens
Zevaco
Cervantes
Walter Scott
Tolkien
Carroll
Winnie the Pooh(forgot the author)
Asimov

>>10440859
This, tied with Narnia

>>10445012
C.H.E.R.U.B was fucking GOAT. It didn’t sugarcoat reality for kids and it was a book that any poor kid with escapist fantasies in a bad neighbourhood could pick up and disapear into.


Fuck that brings me back, man.

>>10439649
>But what about us, the elite of the Internet?

>>10453489
Who is this slut?

>>10453727
Alexandra Daddario

>>10453899
She is ugly
