Currently on the Bookshelf

What would life be without a good book? I shudder to think. Currently, we (I) have blazed through some good ones...keeps the old nausea at bay. I am currently reading, Everyday Sacred: A Woman's Journey Home by Sue Bender, The book Thief by Markus Zuzak, and Al Capone Does My Shoes by Gennifer Choldenko (Gennifer had an autistic sister growing up. In her books, thirteen year old Matthew "Moose" has an autistic older sister Natalie. The family is working on getting her into a special school for the Autistic). We are listening to Megan Whalen Turner's The Queen of Attolia and The King of Attolia. Do you have a book to recommend?
