If you leave a general description (DON'T GIVE AWAY THE BOOK please) that would be helpful...

All But My Life is one of my all time favorite books! From Amazon.com...The basis for the Emmy-winning documentary ONE SURVIVOR REMEMBERS, this is the memoir of a young Polish Jewess's enslavement by the Nazis and her ultimate liberation by American soldiers.
I am telling you, it's fantastic!!

The Chronicles of Narnia-you've probably heard of them. They aren't children's books, well, they're kinda both.I couldn't sit still reading these.
Harry Potter series-next to Eragon/Eldest, my favorite. These magical adventureshad me hoked. I stayed up past 4am lot's of mornings just reading these. I really couldn't stop. I was constantly trying to ignore my bladder after about 12 hours of straight reading. butOne can only hold it so long! I nearly busted b4 i got there n time!I've read all of these on average, 8 times each. You've probably read them, but if not... go 4 it!!!
Sea of Trolls- I'm reading this one right now.A simple farmer's boy led a perfectly boring life until one day a bard came to their peaceful villiage. The bard teaches the boy, Jack, to listen to "the life force" and jack learns a little bit of magic. The bard is attacked by some unknown force, and loses his insanity.Thier village is under attack by "berserkers" and Jack uses His little power to cast fog over their villiage. Jack and lucy are caught, and become slaves... and that's as far as I've read.
Eragon and Eldest-Midevial times-Can't say w/o giving away a lot of the book, But my all my friends have read it, and they agree that it's the best they ever read, and that's a lot of friends and a lot of books.
Joureney to the center of the Earth-One of my Fav.s-read it so long ago, I forget the details, but you should totally check it out.The begining's dull, but it's well worth it.
WhiteFang, Call of the Wild, ... All Jack London books are fantastic.

2001: basically human evolution has been advanced by a mysterious rectangular object, first by early ape-like man and later one is found on the moon. It emits, like a burgler alarm, a signal pointed out toward Jupiter. An Ameican expedition, in the form of a three person team and one exceptionaly bright computer (named Hal, yes he talks) on a large space vessal go off to investigate. Awesome book from one of the finest living authors (hurray, he's really really old). Major motion pictures and sequals available.

Oh my God- I went to the link and am trying to help you out, but there's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too many to look through! Why don't you pick a couple that you think you'll like, and then we'll do process of elimination for you?
I did see "After the Bomb" though, that's a good book, but I noticed it's low in points.

All Creatures Great and Small by James Herriot -- it's about animals.
Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy -- I just started reading it, it's pretty good but advanced
the Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery -- my FAVORITE books EVER...
Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury -- pretty easy to read, about a young boy growing up, we had to read it in English, I hated it though because I'm not good at "analyzing" things...
Dune by Frank Herbert -- kind of confusing, but if you like science fiction you should read it.
Eragon by Christopher Paolini -- easy to read, I could tell it was written by a younger kid, about a dragon :P
The Fellowship of the Ring by JRR Tolkien -- it's a classic... fantasy book.
The Heart is a Lonely Hunter by Carson McCullers -- another classic, kinda humorous
Heidi by Johanna Spyri -- I love this book because it has goats in it. I love goats.
The Hobbit by JRR Tolkien -- this was my favorite Tolkien book
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte -- about a girl
Moby Dick by Herman Melville -- a whale... exciting.
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen -- some parts are kind of hard and boring, but it was good
The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne -- everybody in my English class said it was hard, but I thought it was pretty easy to read. If you need help, sparknotes.com is awesome.
The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett -- easy to read
The Three Muskateers by Alexandre Dumas -- if you like action and adventure you will like this book

I recommend "The Westing Game." I read it a while ago but I loved it. It's basically about a game in which the owner of a lot of money is trying to find someone within his family to inherit it.
