Tell Me What to Read: Round 15
Today was the first day the air has felt cool! (By which I mean 75 degrees, of course. Oh Texas, you make it so easy to love you).
Which means October is nearly here and thus I need reading material for next month. You know, for the moments when I’m not reading Janette Rallison as fast as I can.
Eat some soup or a pumpkin baked good and also, suggest something for me to read in October:
1. Comment with the title of one book you think I should read (any book you want). One title only, please, lest my brain explode.
2. I’ll select one comment at random and announce it on the blog within the next week.
3. On the off-chance that I’ve already read the book you select, I’ll contact you and ask for a follow-up suggestion (make sure there is a way to contact you either by blog or email).
4. I’ll get a copy of the book and read it by the end of October.
5. I’ll write a review of it here. Even if I hate the book, I will not hate you.
When we were bad by Charlotte Mendelson (I think its been published in the US)
Two for the Road, by Jane and Michael Stern
Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout
Enchanted, Inc. by Shanna Swendson.
Someone Knows My Name…by someone whose name I can't remember.
Really and truly is it time for this? Gracious.How about The Dark Hills Divide by Patrick Carmen again.
I've missed commenting on this one for many months. How about The Help by Kathryn Stockett. I know it is a popular one, but it is pretty good and I would be curious to read your review.
East of Eden, John Steinbeck. Statistically, if I keep suggesting this, eventually I'll get chosen!
Life of Pi by Yann Martel.
Fablehave, it surely has to win at some point.
The Magicians by Lev Grossman. It will win one of these months.
The Element
by Ken Robinson
Modoc by Ralph Helpher.
For the Win by Cory Doctorow
The Perks of Being a Wallflower, by Stephen Chbosky.
The Geography of Bliss by Eric Weiner.

Knightley Academy – It's Harry Potter without the magic. Book 1 in a trilogy. I think the author finished writing book 2 recently so the sequel is coming. It's long, awesome Steampunk Victorian Britain adventure. I read it randomly a few months ago and I want to get the word out how great it is. 🙂
The Ladies Auxiliary by Tova Mirvis
The Red Tent by Anita Diamant
I'll try again with The Story Sisters by Alice Hoffman!
