The Yearling by Majorie Kinnan Rawlings (I think that's her name)

It's very good. It's was written in the 1920's, but it's not written in a horribly weird, confusing way like most old books. She's a simply excellent writer and the story is amzing, as well as the characters. It's about a boy in the 1860's who lives in Ocala Florida with his mom and dad and he gets a fawn (baby deer). It's not just about that, though, It's also about his life and him growing up. It really is a wonderful book.

For One More Day- Mitch Albom.

 

[::Snow_White::]

The Book Theif -Markus Zusak.
The Da Vinci Code -Dan Brown.
Digital Fortress -Dan Brown.
Marked -PC Cast and Kristin Cast. (It's about a teenage girl turning into a vampire, but it's NOTHING like Twilight. It's actually really good.)
Fahrenheit 451 -Ray Bradbury.
To Kill a Mockingbird -Harper Lee.
Water for Elephants -Sara Gruen.

How about the Shakespeare Secretby J.L. Carrell. Think of it kind of like the Da Vinci Code, but it's trying to find a lost Shakespeare play, and people are being killed like Shakespeare's characters. It's hard to describe, but so far it's a pretty good book.

Kingdom Keepers 1 & 2

The Other Boleyn Girl--Philippa Gregory

 

[lpe_bratz]

The Five People You Meet In Heaven - Mitch Albom is really good.
And my dad likes Tuesdays With Morrie - Mitch Albom..I haven't read it but I'm going to really soon.

looking for alaska by john green changed my life.

 

[HSMndLKfan92]

A Separate Peace - John Knowles
The Scarlet Letter - Nathaniel Hawthorne

Both are semi difficult reads if you've never read them, but are very thought provoking

 

[Tinkerbell424]

Speak by Laurie Ann Halsie.

It is kind of a teen drama book, thats about rape. It's very good and very sad.

 

[Ppufi]

The Wicked quartet series. Can't rmember the authors, but oh, it's spooky.

[JulielovesDisney]

Ken Follett books. They're historical books, but they're so good. Right now I'm reading Jackdaws, which is about WWII. They're really long books though, I don't know how you feel about that.

daniel keyes.

Oh yeah.
I knew it was some guy with the initials DK but I couldn't remember!

 

[ThePurpleMorphy]

Hmmm....

Miss Piggy's Guide to Life

Mrs. Bucket's Book for the Socially Unfortunate
(Haven't read it yet but I'm working on it. Based after an older BBC show. [Keeping Up Apperances])

 

[ThePurpleMorphy]

My dad says:

The Zombie Survival Guide

 

[Edwin Krollup]

You should try THE INLANDS TRILOGY by Ryan Christensen if you feel like satiating your post-Potter appetite. Great fantasy series!
