Mist of Avalon is one of my all time favorites. It's a nice twist on the Arthurian legends and takes characters we know and really fleshes them out but also makes them a little different. The author ended up writing other books as well but they all can be stand alone books. There's a prequel to Mists of Avalon called The Forest House, then Lady of Avalon and then Priestess of Avalon. They're OK, but Mists of Avalon is by far the best in the 'series'.

For February real Lost Stars by Claudia Gray!!! It's a Star Wars story but you don't have to be a fan to read it! It's about two best friends (a girl and a guy) who grow up very differently but have the same goals to be fighter pilots for the empire. When they get there though one chooses to rebel and the other stays. It's such a good story about loving a person but having to chose your morals over it! Pls it's Sci-Fi so it's not just straight up lovey dovey stuff!
