    Can you keep a Secret is a favorite of mine. I love those funny chick lit books. Try Bet Me. Think you'll like it.

    Absolutely yes Iva, You should read "Summer Sister's". I see you are 23yrs old. I read "Summer Sisters" many year ago, when I was about 27, and I absolutely loved it. As far as' "Little Earthquakes" It was an OK, or average read, but a bit generic, and simple. Really nothing special. I could certainly recommend much better books, that you would enjoy. First of all I noticed you had the "Twilight" series among your favorites. If you have not read "The Host" by "Twilight" author Stephanie Meyer's, you absolutely must read it. I absolutely loved "The Host".
    I would love to recommend a few of my favorites; "Water for Elephants" by Sarah Gruen, "The Time Traveler's Wife" by Audrey Niffenegger, "My Sister's Keeper" by Jodi Picoult, "The Hour I First Believed",or "I Know This Much is True" by Wally Lamb.
    I hope you will enjoy some of my suggestions, Happy Reading!!

    Iva, I enjoyed readinr "The Last Empress". If you like books about China you will like this one. I recommend you read 'Princess Orchid' first by the same author. It is about the early days of the last Empress. Hope this helps. Barbara

    Hi Iva, Have you had a chance to read "High Fidelity"? Was the John Cusack movie based on this book? I love the movie. Will think about buying this one also. Take care, Diane

    Wuthering Heights is representative of the early 19th Century… but the book is a psychological drama that is filled with the drama and trauma of life. You may find good outline notes to help you with it. It is worth it also because the author is one of the outstanding women writers of the 19th Century. This novel is one of the greatest pieces in English literature, not only for language but for social impact. Looking at your book list, I think you will handle this book without too much difficulty.

    The English language in the book is dated but that doesn't mean you shouldn't attempt to read it. The other books on your shelf suggest you'd be able to tackle the language. Actually, I think you should attempt to read it as a basis for learning older writing styles. It is a classic, after all.
