I also enjoyed all of Alice Seabold's books ( lucky and lovely bones ) - she just came out with a new one The Almost Moon which is good too




Life of Pi and Middlesex are amazing!!!

My faves are To Kill a Mockingbird, Middlesex, The Virgin Suicides, Dry, and Running with Scissors

older books: starring sally j. freedman as herself

That was my favorite Judy Blume! I JUST finished re-reading it! So funny, its not one of her better known ones. Its actually autobiographical.

ooh...I was wondering how a thousand splendid suns was...is it similar to Kite Runner?

I thought the secret life of bees was wonderful too! such great characters!

Lucky was an excellent book! I'm a certified rape crisis counselor and I recommended it to the director of the coalition against domestic violence and sexual assault so that other girls going through the training will read it too! Such a wonderful first hand account!
