1 recommendation
"Part of Penguin's acclaimed History of Europe series comes 'The Pursuit of Glory', a fascinating look at some of the most influential revolutions and reorganizations across the continent. It's very well written; detailed enough to inform while keeping a larger, more interesting picture in view. If you want to understand how modern Europe became what it is, this book is a must read."
Nothing in the World by Roy Kesey
1 recommendation
"I may have mentioned it before. Roy Kesey is so good it will hurt to read it. You haven't hurt this good in a long time. And that is not good. You want to hurt. You want to hurt so bad. Your limbs ache for this kind of goodness. Find out for yourself. Ache."

One Door Away from Heaven
1 recommendation
"I'm actually in the process of reading this one now and its a really great book. It starts off strong from the first page introducing characters and conflicts that you definitely want to get to know more about. The main protagonist in this novel is Mickey, a twenty something young woman who lives with her aunt in a trailer home and is confused about life and where she wants to go. She actually do..."
Fear Nothing
1 recommendation
"I really enjoyed Fear Nothing. It's a great story that follows Christopher Snow, a young man who is cursed to spend forever in darkness because the slightest sliver of sun rays or fluorescent light could be deadly thanks to a rare skin disease. Still, he does not let this stop him from living as normal a life as possible. After dark, he takes to the streets with his girlfriend Sasha, his dog, and ..."
From the Corner of His Eye
2 recommendations
"From the Corner of His Eye is the first novel that I read by Dean Koontz who has since become my absolute favorite author. The characters in this story are amazing which includes protagonists Barty and Angel, two gifted young children born world's apart but were both born into tragedy, and Junior Cain, the antagonist, a violent criminal with evil intentions. I love the way that he integrates ficti..."
Revolutionary Road - Richard Yates
1 recommendation
"This book was my introduction to Richard Yates, who has become one of my favourite writers because of the melancholy lining his work. He writes a wonderful and tragic story of ambition, dreams deferred and desires that are never quite followed through. Although sometimes referred to as a Beat Writer, Yates to me is set apart from Kerouac & crew, focusing instead on the undercurrents of unhappi..."
Odd Thomas
2 recommendations
"Odd Thomas is the first book in a series that follows Odd Thomas. He's one of the most eccentric characters in any novel and he has a very special gift--he can see and talk to the dead. Consequently, he uses his gift to help lost souls find peace and justice so they can crossover and he often enjoys the company of ghost Elvis who refuses to leave. Every gift has it's price as the tagline says whe..."
The Color Purple
5 recommendations
"The Color Purple is one of most powerful books that you will read. There is also a film based on the novel which is equally as powerful, but the novel offers a little more detail and graphics than a movie made at that time could show. Those not familiar with The Color Purple, it follows a young Black woman named Cecile who was forced into an abusive marriage at age 14 and separated from her fam..."
The Great Gatsby
8 recommendations
"The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. It is almost tragic that teenagers are "forced" to read The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald in high school, for they will read through the book like machines, write a paper about a superficial theme like corruption caused by money, love scorned, etc., and forget about the story as they run off to cheerleading and football practices. If you have do..."
That Extra Half an Inch, by Victoria Beckham

"She's such a boss lady, so ridiculously glammy. Hmm, what was that doll? Emphasis on the "ridiculous"? I love Posh."
BUST Magazine
6 recommendations
"Bust has a wonderful balance of intelligent interviews/insights and beauty, fashion and pop culture. It definitely doesn't treat women like dopes, like so many silly magazines do these days."
Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking by Malcolm Gladwell
14 recommendations
"I've been listening to the audiobook (from Audible.com, read by the author) on my commute. Though I'm not quite done with the book, I can recommend it strongly to anybody who is willing to question how they thought their mind worked. This is not a self-help book and it doesn't offer much in the way of advice on how to think better (I'll update this statement if the last bit takes a dramatic tur..."
Everybody Hurts: An Essential Guide To Emo Culture
2 recommendations
"I admit, when I first heard about this book I was a little confused and I didn't know what to expect, but its actually quite funny. It light-heartedly pokes fun at the whole emo culture and movement with detailed lists of the different types of emo breaking down your status by what brands you wear, the artists you listen to, etc. It's very funny and the best emo guide a poser can buy."
Sweet Valley High
1 recommendation
"I was obsessed with Sweet Valley and the Wakefield Twins. I bought and read every single Sweet Valley High book in the series as well as Sweet Valley University and its many, many spin-offs. Of course, I saw every episode of the short-lived Sweet Valley High television show. Now, Jessica and Elizabeth are back and the classic teen drama has been reworked to reflect the concerns and tastes of toda..."
