"The Help" has been on my (ever growing!) list for a while now, too. I highly, highly reccoment "Her Fearful Symmetry"- so good! And If you haven't read it, Dave Egger's "What Is The What" is possibly one of the best things I've ever read. Happy reading!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01492728077968033243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2244145031099694433.post-82488022151791886262011-03-31T20:48:57.734-04:002011-03-31T20:48:57.734-04:00interesting! thanks for sharing. i love foer SO MU...interesting! thanks for sharing. i love foer SO MUCH but not interested in reading his non fiction.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14295639959822503904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2244145031099694433.post-19468719256170219802011-03-31T20:33:53.514-04:002011-03-31T20:33:53.514-04:00I've read A Time Traveler's Wife (tears) b...I've read A Time Traveler's Wife (tears) but haven't checked out Her Fearful Symmetry (add it to the this).

The readers who tell the story are phenomenal and I think they bring the book to a whole new level - So I concur with that pick!<br /><br />I also agree with Sarah ^^^ I am an Audrey Niffenegger fan and have read both the Time Traveler's Wife (and cried) and Her Fearful Symmetry (didn't want it to end) so I can suggest both of those.<br /><br />I don't know if you've read the Steig Larsson trilogy, but I HIGHLY recommend them too!<br /><br />I'll have to add some of yours to my list :) Thanks for sharing!!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17635818260368816444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2244145031099694433.post-54356743977866924122011-03-31T13:32:48.157-04:002011-03-31T13:32:48.157-04:00I want to read The Hunger Games and Eating Animals...I want to read The Hunger Games and Eating Animals sooo bad! I own Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close and it blew my mind, totally fantastic.<br /><br />I don't read half as much as I use to (university kills my drive to leisurely read). But I would recommend The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger, A Great and Terrible Beauty (it's a trilogy) by Libba Bray, and The Wreckage by Michael Crummey.<br /><br />Let me know if you read any of them, I'd love to know what you think. ♥Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11047224102881925184noreply@blogger.com
