i haven't heard of the addicted series before!!! i did read all of the hp series tho heh. have you read the percy jackson series?? it's one of my absolute favorites; i've been meaning to go back and read the first series for a while now but i'm also in the middle of listening to the audiobook of "the dragon pearl" and also reading "warcross"....

2/2
oh! i’ll also have to check out the other two that you mentioned. i think i’ve seen the night circus before but not the shadow of the wind!
do you read new adult/contemporary romance?? if not, that’s probably why you haven’t heard of the addicted series! and if you don’t read the genre then you most likely won’t be able to get into it but i love talking about it SO HERE WE GO. 
so the series follows three sisters who come from a famous family. the original series is about one of these sisters- lily- who’s addicted to sex and her best friend, loren hale, who is from another famous family and is also addicted to alcohol. throughout the series we get to see them battling these addictions and, honestly, it’s hard to read sometimes. then there’s a spinoff series for the other two sisters but they’re all very much involved in each other’s lives. which brings me to the reason…THE REASON i read these books- the!!!!! characters!!!!!! 😭😭 they’re all so flawed (one could definitely say f*cked up) and beautiful and AMAZINGGGG. plus the relationships between all of them??? I HAVE CRIED LITERAL TEARS. they have so much love for each other and they go through so much together. oops i did the whole ‘talking too much’ thing again. anyway, i can definitely see that it’s not something everyone could get into (for one, it’s new adult, so….sex, but i skip those scenes so sdjfndksn) but the main thing i look for in books/shows/life is wholesome, amazing, beautiful relationships- whether they’re romantic, familial etc- and for me, the addicted series and hp series are the epitome of this for me. (wow i didn’t have to go that deep aye)
as for the shadow of the wind and the night circus- these are books that i actually don’t fully remember? lmao. all i remember about them is ‘…wow’ and the fact that they’re just…beautiful sfdfns and whenever people ask me to recommend books, they’re just always on the tip of my tongue. lemme know if you ever check them out!

ooh, i haven’t heard of the dragon pearl but please let me know how warcross goes!! i haven’t been able to get into dystopian books recently but hopefully i will again. 
i actually haven’t read percy jackson yet :( it’s been on my TBR pile for years though, and it’s YA fantasy (which is my #1)!! two reasons for this:
1. i know it’s a fairly large(?) series and y’know how it goes…i wouldn’t be able to stop and i’d need to just read one after another, but obviously i need time for that and….i haven’t found that time lmao.
2. i hate reading books after watching the movie because i can’t unsee it??? and what is reading without imagination so… unfortunately, i watched the percy jackson movie and now i’m like :/// but i’ll definitely get over it because i have to if i want to read awesome books LMAO
