whether "The Case against Barack Obama" is possibly to be commonly fiction, i do no longer think of that's strictly what you're searching for. i latterly study "the beautiful Bones" and thought that replaced into super. The e book is written from the attitude of a murdered 14 twelve months previous female who's looking down on her relatives from an fairly interesting version of heaven. i could additionally propose each and all of the Francesca Lia Block books.

Well, depends on the genre you like. I, myself, prefer children's fiction and some of my favorites are Wait till Helen comes, Inkheart, The Dragon Rider, Harry Potter, Eragon, Eldest, The Children of the lamp, The Crazy Lady, Inkspell, The Bridge to Terabithia, The Penderwickes, and The Lightening Thief.

Inkheart and Inkspell by Cornelia Funke. The 3rd book in the trilogy, Indawn, comes out in 2008.

Inkheart: Meggie’s father, Mo, has an wonderful and sometimes terrible ability. When he reads aloud from books, he brings the characters to life--literally. Mo discovered his power when Maggie was just a baby. He read so lyrically from the the book Inkheart, that several of the book’s wicked characters ended up blinking and cursing on his cottage floor. Then Mo discovered something even worse--when he read Capricorn and his henchmen out of Inkheart, he accidentally read Meggie’s mother in.
Meggie, now a young lady, knows nothing of her father's bizarre and powerful talent, only that Mo still refuses to read to her. Capricorn, a being so evil he would "feed a bird to a cat on purpose, just to watch it being torn apart," has searched for Meggie's father for years, wanting to twist Mo's powerful talent to his own dark means. Finally, Capricorn realizes that the best way to lure Mo to his remote mountain hideaway is to use his beloved, oblivious daughter Meggie as bait!

Inkspell: Just a few chapters into Inkspell, Mo (a.k.a. "Silvertongue") sagely says to his daughter, "Stories never really end, Meggie, even if the books like to pretend they do. Stories always go on. They don't end on the last page, any more than they begin on the first page." A fitting meta-observation for this, the unplanned second installment in Cornelia Funke's beloved now-trilogy.
Of course, it's that sort of earnest, almost gushing veneration of books and book-loving that made the absorbing suspense-fantasy Inkheart so wonderful in the first place, with that lit-affection getting woven integrally into the plot (Inkheart being both Funke's first book in the series, and the fictitious book within that book, authored by the frustrated Fenoglio, now trapped within the book, er, within the book. Fenoglio, perhaps not surprisingly, self-referentially wishes in Inkspell that he had written a sequel to Inkheart.) Inkspell should serve as a special treat for fans of the first book, as characters from Inkheart who have found themselves in the "real world" (if there is such a thing) find themselves read back into their own mythic, word-spun world--along with some of our favorite "real-world" characters. As with the previous book, Funke's greatest accomplishment here is telling such a rich and involving (and fun!) story, while still managing sweet, subtle commentary on the nature of words and meaning. Expect a tantalizing finale, too--as Funke says, "No reader will forgive me the ending, though, without a part three."

The Divide and The Horse Whisperer by Nicholas Evans
John Grisham and Nicholas Sparks are great authors.

I've been stuck on Stephanie Plum novels by Janet Evanovich (not sure if that's spelled right) The first one's called One for the Money, and the rest start with the next number and go on, they're really addicting. It's about a woman who decideds to become a bounty hunter and starts out sucking at it, it's really funny.

I just finished "A Complicated Kindness" by Miriam Toews, which another answerer suggested in another question. The person described it as the Amish version of "A Cather in the Rye" and I would agree with that. I thought it was excellent.

I highly recommend you a book who won the National Book Award in 2001, The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen. It focuses on a dysfunctional family and, in my opinion, it is very well-written.
