Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (J.K. Rowling) Twilight (Stephenie Meyer) New Moon (SM) Eclipse (SM) Al Capone Does My Shirts (Gennifer Choldenko) Black Like Me (John Howard Griffin) The Giver (Lois Lowry) The Westing Game (Ellen Raskin) Escape (Carolyn Jessop) That's what I can think of off the top of my head that I have read so far this year. Obviously I have a love of Young Adult literature.

I have all of the books in a box outside because I was going to donate them to the library this week. If I think about it I'll get the titles before I do.

Posts: 2458 (06/13/2008 8:53 AM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Friend Block Invite Ignore	I read A LOT, so its hard to remember everything... Little Children No Country for Old Men Pride & Prejudice On the Road The Little Lady Agency series Molly Forester series Step on a Crack You've Been Warned Alice in Wonderland Through the Looking Glass That's all I can remember off the top of my head. Chick lit is my guilty pleasure... I like those books because they are a quick read. I can usually knock one out in a day. Same thing with Jame Patterson books... they're a quick read. I need to go to the library and get some more books!

Posts: 5210 (06/13/2008 11:13 AM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Friend Block Invite Ignore	Seriously, I'm so jealous of all of you who have time to read so much. I love it, and I've read a little more in the last month and a half since I've just been working (no homework!) but not enough. I'm bringing home Dracula and The Fountainhead, but I need more ideas. Hence this post.
