I'm looking from some book recommendations. I'm 15 years old and love to read, but i'd really like to try something new.
I dont really like fantasy that much. (I've been spoiled by harry potter and can't read anything else) But other than that i'm not very picky. Please dont recommend books by authors like Sarah Dessen or Stephenie Myer.
Here are some books i've read since december that i've really enjoyed:
- White Oleander
- My Sister's Keeper
- Never let me go
- It's not about the bike
- the things they carried
- Catcher in the Rye
- Into thin air
- Henry and June :O
- the poisonwood bible
- Jane Austen book club
I'm in the middle of a Bill Bryson book right now, which I also really enjoy.

-Vanishing Acts

Also, if you liked catcher in the rye, you will like

Confessions of a Shopaholic is good
so is The Devil Wears Prada
The Nanny Diaries
Killing Aurora
Reply:Have you thought about Gone with the Wind? It is a true classic, well written and much better than the movie.
You might also like novels by James Nelson. He writes historical fiction and the story lines are very good.
There's also Douglas Adams. You said no fantasy, but it's nothing like Harry Potter.
Reply:do you like horror? i have two books published that are horror. they are full of short horror stories mostly vampire and poetry in the back. they can be found on amazon and on www.publishamerica.com under my pen name Michelle Patricia Noble. you might like looking those up. i also suggest this book called the worst witch. i forget the author but you can find it on www.powells.com
Reply:-Naught and Crosses
-The Time Travelers Wife
-The Other Boleyn Girl
-The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants Series
Reply:Those are great books. I would suggest any of Judy Blooms books. They may seem a bit juvenile, but they carry on life lessons you, being 15, will be able to carry out well.
