Well I read a lot, I'm 15 and i like most of the popular stuff (ie HP, twilight series, the clique, gossip girl, the it girl, alex rider series, 1-800-where-r-u etc.) and I've read all the books in those series, now i'm kind of looking for just books, not really series cause i get too hooked on em.
so any suggestions would be great (and I've read all the rachel hawthorne books too) thanks!

~Given your samples, I don't think I can help you. I wouldn't waste my time on the stuff you mention. Why not try some worthwhile and relevant literature, such as GB Shaw, Heinrich Ibsen, Ayne Rand, Ken Kesey, Thomas Merton, Barbara Tuchman, Mark Twain, Hermann Hesse - there are hundreds more - and turn yourself on to some truly great works? On the other hand, it is truly refreshing to hear from someone your age who actually reads for pleasure. Keep it up.

Honestly, I love series of books! My favourite authors are Meg Cabot [has series and also just individual books], Tamora Pierce [many series], Kathy Reichs [series], Dan Brown [series] and Jacqueline Wilson [series and individual].
as for the books you have already read, maybe find more books by that author?

I have answered this question so many times, I decided to dedicate a web site to answer this question. Here it is:
http://www.life-after-harry-potter.com
Included is a list of only the best sorcery fantasy books, grade reading level, a short review of each book along with a brief summary of adult content. There is also a "Reader's Choice" list of favorite books, and a list of heroine sorcery fantasy books.
I hope this helps.

Instead of a mission overload with all the author suggestions given and they are excellent by the way. Perhaps you should try short stories. Many famous authors, playwrights and poets wrote them at one time or another during their careers. You can get an idea of an author's basic style from a short story and determine if its to your liking. Key in on the internet "short stories" and you get all you need.

Have you ever read anything by Terry Pratchett? If not, I highly recommend his stuff. It's hilarious.
