The Iron Tower
Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
Those are my two favorites.
I just finished the most fabulous books!
The Jane Austen Book Club by Karen Joy Fowler was pretty good. I am a huge fan of her and I thought I might like the book. I ended up getting caught in the lives of all the characters.
The Scandalous Summer of Sissy LeBlanc by Loraine Despres was a really good read. It’s more of a summer/romance book but its not wicked trashy, it’s really quite funny.
And my last and favorite book is called Stardust by Neil Gaiman. Its a love story but it’s more science fiction-fantasy. It’s so cool. I don’t even have words to describe how much I liked it haha. Hope this helped!
Some great books I just read are:
The Glass Castle
The Memory Keeper’s Daughter
Son of a Witch (Sequel to Wicked)
Some great children’s book authors are:
Andrew Clements (Frindle)
J.K. Rowling (duh, right?)
L. Frank Baum (Wizard of Oz, if you haven’t read them, try them)
Gordon Korman (No more Dead Dogs: riot)
Madeleine L’Engle
C.S. Lewis (Lion, Witch, Wardrobe)
Jack London
Beverly Cleary
Katherine Paterson
Adult authors and/or series:
Terry Pratchett (Discworld Series)
Sophie Kinsella (Shopaholic Series)
Jennifer Weiner
Marian Keyes
Classics:
The Great Gatsby
Catcher in the Rye
Great Expectations
H.G. Wells
Oscar Wilde
Nathaniel Hawthorne
These are all kind of off the top of my head, hopefully other people will give you all kinds of suggestions.
I like to go to Half-Price Books and buy as many books as I can. They are cheap and if I don’t like them I didn’t spend as much.
Have fun reading!
if u want musrery, u can go for agatha christie.
then u can read novels like uncle toms cabin. its really great. i have not read it but my aunt has , and she says it is really good. so why dont u try that?

I am reading: The Girls by Lori Lansens it is about conjoined twin girls
Family Tree by Barbara Delinsky
One of the best books I have read in a long time is The Book Thief by Marcus Zusack. You’ll find it in the young adult section but it wasn’t written specifically for that age group, both my dad and I couldn’t put it down. Zusack captures childhood perfectly and the story pulls you in so that you feel right along with the characters.

Life as We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer
Rash by Pete Hautman
