I'm looking for some good books to read over the summer. What is your favorite book (or author), and why?

I'm looking for something that's fairly easy to read.

PS. FYI my favorite book is Pride and Prejudice. I also like books by John Grisham and Frank Peretti.

I read quickly and have read everything I own twice. I need some suggestions. I would like to read some novels that require some thought to understand and interpret. If you would so kindly suggest some books that you have read and a general idea of plot and theme I would be greatly appreciative.

I don't know the author, it is about a young girl caring for her mentally ill mother and trying to earn a living.

The 1st books are set in a post cold-war world, where the good v evil open conflict has been resolved. There may be evil people living in amongst us, but they are secret -like the media frenzy at the time the books were published over peodophiles and immigrants. Then at the end of bk4, evil is going to return. Bk5 would radically depart from the real world situation but... then 9/11 happened and the book and real life carry on in parallel.

I was an orpahned child and I grew up with my aunt who was cruel and ill-treated me. I was then sent away to a school for orphaned children where I spent most of my childhood and then became a teacher at that same school.

I became bored with this life and decided I wanted to move on and became a Governess teaching a young French girl. I later fell in love with the Master of the house where I taught and we were to be married until I discovered that he was in fact still married to an insane woman.

I left this house and became homeless for a while, I then discovered I had relatives I never knew of and lived with them.

I then returned to my old residence where I was a Governess and discovered my ex lover who I was meant to marry had been severely injured and disfigured by a fire.

We then got married.

Who am I?

10 points for the first person who can identify this character!

Is Heathcliffe really a victim? He was initially an orphaned child, endured torment when he grew up with the Earnshaw family, treated as an outsider and lost his one true love, Catherine, to Edgar Linton.

Or is he really a thoroughly spitelful and inhumane character through his treatment of young Cathy, Hareton, Linton and Isabella?

I love medical trillers and courtroom drama. But I only read Robin Cook and John Grisham who writes under those genres. Any others to suggest?

Which character do you have the most sympathy for:

1. Lennie: because he is mentally slow but has a big heart and doesn't intend to cause harm

2. George: because he has accepted the burden of looking after Lennie and tries to keep him out of trouble (even though secretly he needs Lennie just as much as Lennie needs him)

3. Croooks: because of the racial segregation and inferiority amongst the white workers at the ranch

4. Candy: because he's old and 'useless' and doesn't feel particularly useful

5. Curley's Wife: because she appears to be rather lonely and also in an unhappy marriage, this is why she is always trying to talk to the workers.

I love this book very much and I just wondered which character you felt the most sympathy for as they all seem to have a disadvantage in various different ways.
