Well it's Bartimaeus and it's about a English boy who wants to become a powerful wizard. Sounds like Harry Potter but it isn't because these wizards get the powers from magical shapeshifting beings which they summon. They have different names depending on how powerful they are like Dijin and Afrit. Anyway rhe boy summons a 3000 year old, I think, Dijin named Bartimaeus. So there's three books about this kid becoming more powerful and powerful .

Hmmm....my favorite books/series would have to be:


Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini
Percy Jackson and the Olympian Series by Rick Riordan
The Alex Riders Series by Anthony Horowitz
The Cherub Series by Robert Muchamore
The Artemis Fowl Series by Eoin Colfer
The Pendragon Series by D.J. MacHale
The Warrior Heir (but not the other books in the trilogy) by Cinda Williams Chima

And other random books that I can't think of right now.
Hoosier daddy? :P
