If you disliked any on the list, let me know so I don’t end up reading it. I’m trying to cut down my reading list, but if anything really screams READ THIS, then you can give me a recommendation if you think I’ll like it.
The only book I’ve even heard of on that list is Lullaby - Chuck Palahniuk and I highly recommend it.
Chuck Palahniuk has a very strange mind. He wrote Fight Club and all his books are a little odd. I don’t mind them but I think that people either like his books or hate them and I don’t think there is much in between ground.
Jodi Pocoult is a great author. I think you’d really like her.
Lovely Bones definately. I really enjoyed that book!
i only know three of those but i liked them all pretty much.
When You Are Engulfed in Flames
Stargirl
The Messenger
Chuck Palahniuk is a legend. I would read Lullaby.
stargirl
the lullaby
then the cinderella pact
then the messenger
The Lovely Bones - Alice Sebold is one of my all time favorites
I haven’t heard of any of those but two: My Sister’s Keeper and The Five People You Meet in Heaven. I don’t know about My Sister’s Keeper because I haven’t finished it yet(reading it now) but The Five People You Meet in Heaven is AMAZING. You should totally read that
Please, please, please read On The Jellicoe Road! It is such an amazing story. I have read A LOT of books and it is one of my all time favourites. It changed my perspective on life, and really got me thinking. It’s really frustrating to read at first, and is really confusing but is definitely worth finishing, as everything makes sense and comes together beautifully at the end.
Also, The Lovely Bones is a really good read.
Hope I helped xx
