She's come undone is by Wally Lamb. If you haven't read any of the Harry Potter books you might like them. I'm personally a fan of Stephen King. Do you like mysteries?? What type of book-funny, mushy, scary?????????? Any of the Dan Brown books are good (The davinci code/ angels and demons).

NYC The Town so Nice, They Named it Twice!
Here's a book that I read about three years ago, that still sticks in my mind. "Spilling Clarence" by Anne Ursu. The plot SOUNDS like sci-fi but it's not. A small town in Minnesota, named Clarence, experiences a chemical spill from the local pharmaceutical plant. The chemical spill causes almost everyone in Clarence to remember their ENTIRE past..even the things that they have blocked out, the good the bad, and the ugly. The question? Is having total recall of every event in your life, a blessing or a curse? Very emotional and wise book.

I agree, "The Lovely Bones" is a really good one.

I also think "The Five People You Meet In Heaven" is really good as well...just can't recall the name of the author.

Mitch Albom wrote "The 5 People You Meet in Heaven" and I recommended it VERY highly!

And Mom of Franz that book sounds very interesting... I'll have to look into it, thanks!
