Rebecca OK, I"ll admit I've only read one book from this list but it was great - Thirsty by MT Anderson.


message 2: by Kaitlyn (new)

Kaitlyn M. Hmm... a good book that's not best-selling... When you Went Away by Michael Baron. Also Eternal Eden by Nicole Williams. Nicole Williams is a bestselling author, just not Eternal Eden, the first in her Eden Trilogy.


message 3: by Alex (new)

Alex Davidson cool thanks for the recommendations


message 4: by Maddie (new)

Maddie I think I might get the one about conjoined twins.


message 5: by Jaclyn (new)

Jaclyn I don't think I never heard of these books as a book lover.


message 6: by Melanie (new)

Melanie I have added 4 books to my "to read" shelf. The psychologist in me is very intrigued by "Regarding the Pain of Others"!


message 7: by Sarah (new)

Sarah I read The Unthinkable Thoughts of Jacob Green a while back. Really enjoyed it. Will look into some of these others.


message 8: by Kenna (new)

Kenna Now add "in your pants" to all of the titles


message 9: by Joseph (new)

Joseph Whitt Keena - And then say afterward, "Context is everything."


message 10: by Malia (new)

Malia I haven't read any of them, but I am ordering THE ENORMOUS ROOM, sounds good!


message 11: by Anne C (new)

Anne C I'm giving "Thirsty" a chance... we'll see how it goes...


message 12: by K. (new)
