Needful things by Stephen King.
I know I'll post it everywhere... But it's just soooo good! It's thriller/horror... but in a very intelligent and interesting way. King is a genius and if you never read anything from him, you should adleast give this one a try :)

K.....sure, I'll try him out. Thanks for the reco. :)

you'll be pleasantly surprised I'm sure :)

Only book or rather short novella of King's I read till date was The Shawshank Redemption based on which 92' blockbuster The Shawshank Redemption was made I must say both of them blew my mind, equally. I loved his writing style and I heard great many things about his books. I know a friend who bought all of his collection. Shall read his works one day.

PS: I'm excited about the fact that most of his works were adapted to screen. B-)

Perhaps you could read the book - You Adored, Me Ignored.

I totally agree, it's one of my favorite books :)

I just finished Heartsick and it was awesome! Totally recommend for people who are into cop stories

My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult: A definite read for all!

The Darkest Minds Everyone HAS to read this book!! Perfection.

But the Angels Never Came Really smart indie book.

Siddhartha by Herman Hesse : First ebook I have read and still remains one of the best!

Heres a few YA PNR's thats I really liked,

Something Witchy This Way Comes by Veronica Blade
Bound by C.K. Bryant
White Hot Kiss by Jennifer L. Armentrout

You could try some of these:

The Giver - Lois Lowry (It's quick read and its writing simplistic. The whole story was interesting to read)

The Purple Hibiscus - Chimamanda Ngozie Adichie (A really amazing novel set in Nigeria about a religious fundamentalist father and his relationship with his family set in the background of a military coup. Its a great contrast of the internal and external problems. It's wonderfully written.)

Wuthering Heights - Emily Bronte ( A bit cliched recommendation but it is a really interesting story of love and revenge. And, some of the dialogues are amazing.)

Definitely agree with Something Witchy This Way comes. It's been a favorite of mine for a long time! Glad to know other people have read it and liked it like me :)

Also, I recommend Angelfall by Susan Ee. I can never seem to get it out of my head and I can't wait for the third one to come out!

Please everyone check out my friend Aimee Russ first novel 'White Wings'. It is self published. Lovers of YA romance will love it.Also fans of 'Hush Hush' and 'Fallen' will fall in love with her world of good and bad Angel's.
