I read that book. It's really good. And I love Lois Lowry. She wrote other great books, too: The Giver, Gathering Blue, and The Messenger.

The Lord of the Rings Any Star Wars books (NJO rocks!)
The original draft of The Lord of the Rings featured Chuck Norris instead of Frodo Baggins. It was only 5 pages long, as Chuck roundhouse-kicked Sauron's ass halfway through the first chapter.

the virgin suicides is my fav. the movie does that book no justice. i also like milkweed, to kill a mocking bird, and catcher in the rye. right now i'm reading 1984 and the accidental, both good so far! i tried to read oliver twist and a clockwork orange, but they were too hard to understand most of the time so i gave up. =P
