There are some fantastic book series here that I could read and reread again and again. The Chronicles of Narnia and Harry Potter are two series that my daughter and I enjoy very much. I have a great book series to recommend by Author Laura DeBruce, “The Quicksilver Legacy Series.” The author transports the reader to Prague, France, and Italy (while fitting in a wonderful love story between lead characters Hana and Alex). The first book of the series (and the only one I’ve been able to read so far) is “The Riddle of Prague” (http://theriddleofprague.com/about/). 18 year old Hana is thrown into a life changing adventure when traveling to Prague to reclaim her ancestral home, “The Rockery.” An old notebook she discovers in the basement of her family home contains riddles and clues that claim to lead to the elixir of immortality. After her family in Prague is kidnapped it becomes quite obvious that Hana isn’t the only one that knows about this elixir. She partners up with charming Alex who is desperately searching for a cure for his sister’s crippling disease and could also benefit from finding the elixir. There is plenty of flirting and fun between the two while trying to outrun the thugs that are trying to get to the elixir first! Such an addictive read; I hope you will give it a chance!

Hi Heidi,
Thanks for the fast reply 🙂 I think this book is best suited for readers from 6th – 12th grade (and adults too! haha). Enjoy!
