I'm mostly into fantasy books (Harry Potter, Forgotten Realms, etc.) and some sci-fi.

Trying to find a new book to read and just thought I'd see what you guys recommend.
 
I was really into that genre/books a while ago, too.

I've begun reading Dan Brown's books, and even though it is a different genre, I've grown in love with them :P

Not sure if it's just me, but I think it branches from my love of knowledge (aka looking smart) :P
 
Here's a list I compiled a while ago for someone who asked the same question on Yahoo Answers:

The Inheritance cycle. I strongly STRONGLY recommend the eragon books. If you've seen the movie, don't even think for a second that the books are as terrible as the movie was. The only trouble I have with the book is pronunciation, but I'm a perfectionist. I can't rest until I've correctly pronounced words;]

Eragon, Eldest, Brisingr, etc.

Also, I'm sort of enjoying the Percy Jackson books, they're alright. Then there's Artemus Fowl, Rapture...

Oh, and if you like the Twilight series, I suggest "The Host" by Stephanie Meyer.

These books are a few that one who enjoys those that you have listed, might also enjoy. If you are brave, I also suggest you look into Dean Koontz, Dan Brown, etc.


OHOH! And Keys to the Kingdom, those were GREAT books!

Yeah, the eragon series are just amazing. I recently read some books by John Locke. It's a 5-6 book series and growing, but I loved it. They can be found on amazon kindle for 99 cents. One of the titles is Wish List.

I second all these books / series. The Inheritance cycle is awesome.

God, I haven't read Artemus Fowl in years. Think I'll have to download the audio books.
 
I liked the Harry Potter series. If you want something on a more serious level, try 1984 - George Orwell. You can never go wrong with classics. Catcher in the Rye - J.D. Salinger. Or if you want something newer, City of Thieves - David Benioff, one of my personal favorites, it is fantastic.
 
Read Sacred Hoops, by Phil Jackson. Its a really good sports book.
 
I tried reading Harry Potter like 3 times and every time I tried, I was knocked out after the first page...
