Poseur by Rachel Maude

And every Sara Dessen book there isAnyone read any good books lately?
I like to read history books and see where humans have failed. This gives me a feeling like I won't make the same mistakes they made. But it's harder than it looks and you start to realize that people are mostly the same except for a few revolutionary individuals.
Mortal Instruments - Cassandra ClareAnyone read any good books lately?
I recently read The Napoleon of Notting Hill by GK Chesterton and was completely blown away. It's funny in some ways but profound in others and really different, fiction but true in some ways I think. You can find it free on Project Gutenberg and read it online or download and put into the free Kindle for Mac/PC applications and read it there. I take public transport so I read it in Stanza (also for free) in my iPod Touch.

You probably won't like everything listed here, just skip the books you can't get into. There's plenty more classics out there waiting for you!

See my sources for lots more suggestions. Ignore anything written by L Ron Hubbard, a hack sci-fi writer who founded the quack religion scientology and by Ayn Rand, a repulsive plutocratic pig



Always read something that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it

Like alga, I absolutely love Kissed by an Angel. However, it is rather sad and can tend to be a little bit frightening. The ending is happy or sad - it depends on the way you look at it.



I also love the Hunger Games, although it is a series. Only two books are currently out. (First book is Hunger Games)



The Underneath is a very cute story that you could look into..



A not-so-happy ending story is My Sister's Keeper - it's an excellent, excellent book.



Other books I've enjoyed are:



Frostfire (I believe that's the name of it..)

The Warriors Series (first book: Into the Wild)

Maximum Ride series

Tuck Everlasting

Number the Stars (Holecaust Book - very very good!!!)
