I am reading Eragon by Christopher Paolini. The Inheritance cycle series is one of my favorite series. The first book Eragon was written by Paolini when he was 15. He started right after he graduated from high school. Yeah he graduated when he was fifteen! That makes you feel really smart. Besides that, the book I think is fantastic. The way Paolini writes is not super duper professional, some might even criticize this but I think this prevents and overly elegant and arrogant type feel you can get from some authors. I like it when i find authors with similar ways of thinking and flow of thought. It is hard to relate when an author uses every grammatical rule, every elevated word possible, every sentenced structured perfectly. It just makes them seem pretentious to me. I want real emotions and I don't mind reading a ranting run-on sentence if it is right for the mood. If you haven't read the Eragon series/Inheritance cycle I really recommend you do.
