I love urvivors and used to like Warriors a lot, though they're pretty different than the Keeper books (it's about dogs/cats and not nearly as magical as kotlc)

A Thousand Splendid Suns is one of my FAVORITE books but is probably much too mature for younger kids (I'd say grade 9+ if you wanna read it.) Same with The Kite Runner, though I'd rank it as grade 10+. Much more realistic and not at all fantasy like Keeper, but still very good reads if anyone's interested.

Getting a little closer to the Keeper books, there's The Giver trio which is so so so good, I'd reccomend it to anyone. The Giver, Gathering Blue, Messenger and Son. All four are from very different perspectives, but connected. Super good books. Still a lot less magical than Keeper, but much more fantasy-oriented than the last two.

I hear Shannon has a trio (I think) of books too, so I'm sure they're worth checking out even though I haven't read them myself. Though I think they're a little more mature than Keeper? Again, I haven't read them.

I liked all of the Hunger Games books, though I've definitely outgrown them. I also found that they started a little slow, but they're good nonetheless. At the very least, it'll keep you busy for a while.
