Great Books

 

Great (and not-so-great) books
 you've told us about.

updated 7/09/07

Dieting for Dummies by Jane Kirby starstarstarstar
This book includes lots of great information.  I found it much more useful than other books of its type. 
When Jeff Comes Home by Catherine Atkins starstarstarstar
I loved how the author would flash back into his memories, so that we could see what had happened to Jeff.
Everworld by K. A. Applegate starstarstarstar
SO COOL, NON-STOP, I CAN'T PUT IT DOWN ITS SO AWESOME!!!
Clearwater Crossing by Laura Peyton Roberts starstarstarstar
The thing that I like most about this series is that it is based on on a group the came together to try to raise money to help a kid named Kurt who had cancer and they wanted to raise money so that they could help him get treatment. They did raise enough money and Kurt was clear of the cancer but then Kurt got into a bad car accident and he died. Miguel was upset about it because of the fact that Miguel's father had died of cancer and his mom needed a transplant for a new kidney. This group of kids are still together. When a friend of mine first told me that I should read the series I said I could because I didn't think that It was going to be an interesting series. But then I started to read the series and now I am on the 15th book, these are such good books. I recommend this book to everyone.
Define Normal by Julie Ann Peters starstarstarstar
It tells a story of friendship between two very unlikely girls, and sends the message that being "normal" isn't always a good thing.
Harry Potter books  by J.K. Rowling starstarstarstar
It's an awesome book. I think everyone should read it. It captures fantasy and adventure combining it with such elegance it's hard to stop reading. It's a total page turner and a great book to look into if anyone hasn't yet.
Eragon and Eldest by Christopher Paolini starstarstarstar
Great book to read when bored. It's filled with Fantasy and Adventure that puts dragons into it easily. It's believable and extraordinary.
Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien star
It's not such a great book. It seems to have descriptions to make pages longer and all. Unless you need a lot of description of where the character is, I don't know if you do, then this book would be exceedingly good for you to read. If not, then you might possibly get bored at all the descriptions and all. That is, however, my personal opinion.
Sword of the Rightful King by Jane Yolen starstarstar
Pretty nice book. A book that's great for medieval times and all.
Forever Peter Hamill
Couldn't put it down. This story wasn't predictable, there were a few good twists that surprised me. The characters were interesting. I don't read much historical fiction but I loved this and I'll probably read more like it now.
Could it be True? Allan Zullo
It is like a mystery but it tells how twins were separated at birth and about a house in a painting and mystery of the balloonist's ring and about a deadly secret!
Bobbin Lace Manual Geraldine Stott
It is perfect for a person who is just starting out in bobbin lace and has no clue on what to do. Has clear pictures, instructions, and diagrams. Bobbin lace in general is something that should be passed done to the younger generation.
Half-life Aaron Krach
Homecoming Queen John Hall
The suspense is soo great, and the ending is really unpredictable i never would have guessed it!! the book is kinda gruesome, but its not too bad!!
The Dive, and Everest, too (They are both Series) Gordan Korman
These books are great for anyone who loves adventure. The books are soooo good!!! They have a passion about them that is just awesome!!
A Summer to Die Lois Lowry
I LOVE THIS BOOK!!! This has got to be my all-time favorite book!! It is sooo decriptive and detailed, the writing style mimics my own!! The way it is written, the author really makes it seem like you are in the book, experiencing the same thing the characters are. Another good book by this author is The Giver. Another awesome book!
Thoroughbred Series  Multiple Authors
I couldn't wait to pick up the next book in the series!!!!!!! They are some of the best books ive ever read!!!
Mustang Mountain Series Sharon Siamon
The books are great, I've learned a bunch about handling horses from them, and they've deepened my passion for wild horses
Keystone Stables Marsha Hubler
I love the way the author portrays the life of orphaned teens - she really shows the reader how hard it is to lose your parents, and how to make it better.
Cape Refuge Series Terri Blackstock
She writes so well, it seems like you are going through what the characters are going through. I wish she would continue the series, but it was only meant to be a mini series!!!
