So while my husband and I visited our former "hometown" of Schweinfurt (we lived there for almost two years), I stopped by a couple of the bookstores in the downtown area and this is what I found:

The Ruby Red series by Kerstin Gier

Diary of a Wimpy Kid by Jeff Kinney

The Strange Case of Origami Yoda by Tom Angleberger (Title translation: Yoda I Am! Everything I Know!)

Please Ignore Vera Dietz by A.S. King (Interesting that the title is in English)

13 Reasons Why by Jay Asher (Title translation: Dead Girls Don't Lie)

If I Stay by Gaye Forman
And, last but not least, a book so awesome, even Ninjas want to read it...

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins (Title translation: The Tribute from Panem: Deadly Games)
I actually bought a copy of the German version of The Hunger Games, along with Diary of a Wimpy Kid and The Strange Case of Origami Yoda. Will I be able to read them? Probably not, but they'll look cool on my shelf!
Cool post! I think it's neat to see what familiar books look like in other countries.
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize Ruby Red was part of a series, but I really like those covers. :)
whoa the hunger games one is awesome!!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Diary of a Wimpy Kid is pretty darn popular! The Hunger Games one is kinda cool too:)
