I just finished 'Sammy's Hill' by Kristen Gore. I thought it was really good. And a pretty fast read.

Alice Hoffman, Seveth Heaven.
It is a great book! It takes place on Long Island. Alice Hoffman is the author of Pratical Magic, the movie with Snadra Bullock and Nicole Kidman. She is an amazing writer!

I just started Company Man by Joseph Finder. Excellent book. I started reading it monday, and I am almost finished with it.
click here for finders website....

I also read his first book called Paranoia. You dont need to read Paranoia before reading Company Man...Too different stories.

I just finished the Secret Life of Bees - it was really good. Long chapters but each chapter had a lot of breaks so you can read a few pages at a time.

Some of my recent favorites included:

The Secret Life of Bees
The Five People you Meet in Heaven
The Last Boy by Lieberman

but I'd recommend highly The Pact by Jodi Picoult. I've read a lot of her books now, started with that one, and it's so moving...My Sister's Keeper, also written by Picoult is really good as well.

The Notebook was a great read. A great non fiction book was 'Down came the Rain, by Brooke Shields. Very well written.
