Can you recommend good books that you've read?
I got an e-reader yesterday...I was resisting, but DH decided to get it for me. I haven't read anything in awhile, so I'm not sure what's out there! Can you recommend some books that you've read that you've liked? I think the last books that I read were Water for Elephants, The Thirteenth Tale and The Piano Teacher.
Thanks!

A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khalid Hosseini

107 Read/listened to in 2011: 91 Books/16 Audiobooks
Read 2012: 33/50
Ditto The Red Tent!
I love The Time Traveler's Wife, All of "The Idiot Girl" Books, and The Five Love Languages.
I tried this book and just gave up. I am not sure if I wasn't into it or just skimmed through too quick. Now I am reading Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
IUI #1 10/12/11 (Bravelle + HCG + Prometrium & acupuncture) = 10/26 BFP! Beta #1=250, Beta #2= 615. 1st u/s 11/8.
True. Makes you wonder, doesn't it, how "representative" the government there is if legislators keep trying to push through laws that the majority of the state doesn't support...
Don't give up! Sitck with it, once you get about 200 pages (I know 200 is a LOT) into it the book picks up and you won't be able to put it down! It's worth it!
I really liked The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and The Girl who Played with Fire. I'm reading the 3rd one now.
Ditto The Help and Outlander.
If you're looking for light and fluffy then the Sookie Stackhouse series by Charlaine Harris is highly recommended.
Young Adult: Fever 1793, Shiver, The Hunger Games.
Old ones: Dan Brown's books. Not just the DaVinci Code and Angels & Demons, but I really liked Deception Point and Digital Fortress too.
I also really like Dennis Lehane: Shutter Island, Mystic River and I just started his Kenzie & Gennaro series with Darkness Take My Hand that was excellent.
