Heck yeah they are :)

Josh I think Unwindby Neal Shusterman would be a great book to read. It's future America, and rather dystopian in a way, where there's no more abortion. Instead, between the ages of 13-18 you can choose to have your child "unwound" and have all their body parts used for transplant.

I read Angela's Ashes many years ago when it first came out. I loved it. It was amazing.


message 135: by Miriam (new)

Miriam (miriammathew) We could try The DUFF Designated Ugly Fat Friend by Kody Keplinger . It's an amazing book which explores themes of insecurity and family while also including amazing characters.

Or maybe Hopeless (Hopeless, #1) by Colleen Hoover which is really angsty but one of the most wonderful books I've ever come across.


message 136: by Samantha (new)

Samantha | 8 comments The 5th Wave Seems like a pretty interesting new book or The Great Gatsby in honor of it being turned into a movie? I've heard great things about it :]

The After/Life The After/Life by Vardan Partamyan


All the proceeds from the sales of the novel are being donated to an orphanage in Gyumri town of Armenia so if you want to enjoy a post-apocalyptic adventure/coming of age story and support a good cause, please vote for the novel.

Thank you and have a nice post apocalyptic day!

Khulood (khokhee) I'd like to suggest Moby Dick for June's reading. I've always wanted to read the infamous book and could use some encouragement!

Angela's Ashes is beautifully written and a great read. However, I was not as impressed with the sequel 'Tis. I couldn't get into it, where as with Ashes, I couldn't put it down.

I second your recommendations!!! My brother is reading Graceling and he kept stopping to continually boast about how amazing the book was and he was only at the beginning. So I know that I definitely would love to read it. And as for your second recommendation, it sounds interesting, so I wouldn't mind reading that as well. It would be a different change to the types of stories I've been reading lately. :)

I definitely second these nominations!(:
