You should try out the Lorien legacies. They r amazing. A lot of good plot twist as well.

Amira (liightningbolt) | 18 comments Check out The Kingkiller Chronicle. The first one is The Name of the Wind. It's brilliant.

Ella Nisker The Maze Runner series, Legend series, eye of minds series, matched series and divergent series are cool if you like da hunger games

Brooklyn Tayla (bookishbrooklyn) | 833 comments The Maze Runner series or The Gemma Doyle Trilogy by Libba Bray :)

Rosine (rosineg) I think the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas is a great follow series for the Harry Potter series. I've recently picked it up and I haven't loved a series this much since Harry Potter.

(Hi all - just a quick mod note/apology. I'm sorry to anyone who might have had a comment with text deleted. I intended to only delete a comment not contributing to the discussion, but I deleted another by mistake. Again, I'm sorry!)

As for other books, I would recommend the His Dark Materials series, which is a bit slower than Harry Potter, but has intriguing characters and a story that is easy to get lost in for hours. The Bartimaeus Trilogy would also be a fun choice, with its chapters alternating between third person and a hilarious first person narrator. Like HP, It starts with a young boy learning magic, but things end up going very differently for him!

Also, assuming you don't mind something that's not exactly YA/childrens's, I would check out The Lies of Lock Lamora by Scott Lynch. It's the start to a pretty fun, thrilling fantasy series that is unfortunately not yet finished, but I think the first book is good enough to stand alone.
