 Fahrenheit 451 by Bradbury, Ray, 1920- this is a futuristic work of fiction, looking to the future to create a book about repression, suspicion, and tension. it's so wonderfully written, and the story is easily beliveable. really makes you think. posted Dec 18, 2008 at 8:17PM

 Of mice and men by Steinbeck, John, 1902-1968 This book is so sad, but I love it for the profound simplicity it shows. posted Dec 18, 2008 at 8:12PM

 Speak by Anderson, Laurie Halse wow. that's all I have to say. Funny, but it makes you really think about the outcasts you know. What are their stories? If you've never read this one, you should. posted Dec 18, 2008 at 8:11PM

 Brave new world by Huxley, Aldous, 1894-1963 This book is an interesting idea about our society taken to the etxreme. Written in the 1930's, the correlations between this book and our real life will give you the chills! posted Dec 18, 2008 at 8:08PM

 The fifth child by Lessing, Doris May, 1919- This one is rather disturbing... one to read in broad daylight! posted Dec 18, 2008 at 8:06PM

 Behind the scenes at the museum by Atkinson, Kate By far and away one of the best books I have ever read!! It's important to pay attention though, because the story spans four generations, and five if you count ruby's kids, and it's easy to get mixed up. But be on the lookout for a touching twist. Atkinson weaves in clues throughout the book, one to read again and again! posted Dec 18, 2008 at 8:06PM

 The view from Saturday by Konigsburg, E. L. This is a book for younger readers, but one of my favorite books. It's on my bedside table, because it's a touching story about being the underdogs. posted Dec 18, 2008 at 8:02PM
