Rapsody, by Elisabeth Haydon.
This book is a must read for anyone who likes music, nature, or the idea of living forever.
Rapsody is book one (of three) following a young singer and two men who wisk her away for certain death, or worse, on a journey through the center of the Earth. Anyone who can read these books, and not harbor warm feelings for the main character either has a heart of stone, or is psychologicaly unbalanced. But don't worry Mr. Antisocial tendencies, this book has something for you! That's right folks, this book has a big bad nasty bad guy that everybody will love to hate!
(Okay, I admit it, I've been watching infomercials, but I'm not addicted, I can quit anytime I like.)
Oh, and fair warning people. Don't read this book if you're happy reading watered down mush, because if you arn't expecting it, it will kick you dead square in the emotional pants.

These are two very good books for readers looking for modern, intellectual science fiction without the intergalactic travel, spaceships, or futuristic settings.

Orson Scott Card is my favorite author, but... I have to say, I just read a fantasy type book called The Blue Girl by Charles de Lint and it creeped me out so much... plus, it had a lot of the same things that I took for granted as a child, like a door in the back of my closet that took me to other people's closets...I can't believe that was part of real mythology. It's too weird. The characters are well-developed and the myths and legends used are accurate. I recommend it to anyone who can be afraid without letting it interfere with life and to anyone who had an imaginary friend as a kid.

The newest Pendragon book, its the 7th but very sadly I can't remember what it is called and more sad is I can't read it because I have the paperbacks and the new one is a hard cover. gonk
Also "Pygmalion" by George Bernard Shaw is good right now.

BTW is it "sadder" or "more sad"?

I'd like to recommend Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson. It is really good. I stole the book from my younger sister, she had to read it for school. I don't really want to give out any information about the story, I'd probably end up ruining it for everyone.

Anthem by Ayn Rand

It's actually the one book of hers I finished. An excellent and very short read, especially if you like dystopian fiction.

Angela's Ashes By Frank McCourt
quotes from the back of the paperback

"every once in a while, a lucky reader comes across a book that makes an indelible impression, a book you immediately want to share with everyone around you...Frank McCourt's life, and his searing telling of it, reveals all we need to know about being human." - Linnea Lannon, Detroit Free Press

"a monument to the self-perpetuating power of the human spirit....An accomplished, authorative, and shimmering example of the memoirist's art." - Margaria Fichtner The Miami Herald

"a spellbinding memoir of childhood that swerves flawlessly between aching sadness and desperate humor...A work of lasting beaty."- Peter Finn, The Philadelphia Inquirer

I love Orson Scott Card! I have the entire Ender series. I have also read The Blue Girl, but I enjoyed it. mrgreen
