I really like him, so I might recommend that You read Staying Fat for Sarah Byrnes first. But Speak is so awesome, can't go wrong with that one. I need to read The Giver, too, though my daughter told me that she hates it. Not much of a recommendation, huh?<br />Please hop over to my blog and take part in my poll about Banned Books. Thanks.<br />-Anne<br /><a href="http://headfullofbooks.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Headdfullofbooks</a>Anne@HeadFullofBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01069558006454986084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1798065526948874468.post-53386381872119971832010-09-23T22:02:45.091-05:002010-09-23T22:02:45.091-05:00Living Dead Girl was an amazing read.

I ended up reading the entire thing in one sitting while my iced frappachino melted away. I just bought Speak tonight, although I have read Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson. My book club is reading To Kill a Mockingbird in honor of banned books.Kate @Midnight Book Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01220575670960466054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1798065526948874468.post-5637465063364126042010-09-20T17:47:10.783-05:002010-09-20T17:47:10.783-05:00The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe???

I haven't read about a third of the list you posted (HP, Speak, Living Dead Girl - first two I loved, third one not my style). <br /><br />I hope you enjoy them.<br /><br />:D<br /><br />Happy weekend.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1798065526948874468.post-34148332619805012762010-09-02T18:41:24.648-05:002010-09-02T18:41:24.648-05:00Living Dead Girl is super good.

And Speak has a sarcastic, vulnerable protagonist that you can't help but root for.<br /><br />Great, great list!
