The world according to Garp. Highly recommended

I can't pick just one, but I can give suggestions by genre.

Fantasy-

David Eddings - The Belgariad and Mallorean series

The Wheel of Time - Robert Jordan

Crime-

Kathy Reichs

Tony Hillerman

Horror-

Owl Goingback

Tamara Thorne

Heather Graham

I also love the book the Poisonwood Bible, I can't remember the author's name.

The Stand by Stephen King.

I second gone girl by Gillian Flynn, reading it right now and it is so good!

Depends what you are into. I personally like the watersong series and the trylle series by Amanda Hocking.

Watersong series: this girl is really big into swimming and these sirens move into her town and eventually change her. Along with a little romance.

Trylle series: This girl grew up in this home where her mother always said she wasn't her child, and tried to kill her. Her and her brother went live with their aunt she meets this boy and finds out she is a changeling. It a good series, their is magic and a love triangle. It's a good read.

Amanda Hockings is a great author

I just read Room by Emma Donoghue. Its mostly from the perspective of a 5 year old that's lived his whole life locked up with his mother. There's also a movie which was almost equally as good.

My favorite authors are Jodi Picoult and Ellen Hopkins. Can't go wrong with any of their books

Oh! Also Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn. I read it before watching the film. Also really, really good and the way she writes is just ?

What genre do you like? I really liked Me Before You by Jojo Moyes... it's about a girl that gets a job as a caretaker for a man in a wheelchair. The movie will be coming out at some point.

I also love The Breathing Series by Rebecca Donovan. It's a very emotional series. Will change your life. It's about a girl named Emma and circumstances lead to her living with her aunt and uncle. Her aunt is abusive. Highly recommend it though.

The Lonely by Tara Brown is a pretty good mind f***. I don't even know how to describe it.

Pretty much anything by Colleen Hoover... Ugly Love or Confess would be my favorites. Or Hopeless... or Losing Hope...

I could go on for days. If you need more, let me know :)

I don't know if I could pick just one. Growing up loved anything by roald dahl but especially loved the BFG and still do to this day.

Loved Hemingway's "a farewell to arms" and "a separate peace" by John knowles. Also love "the lovely bones" by Alice Sebold (could be a trigger warning I guess)...just recently finished "the shack" by William P young and thought it was absolutely wonderful. Came at a good time in my life though.

OH and I really loved "water for elephants" by Sara gruen. Couldn't put it down. If you like sarcasm then "let's explore diabetes with owls" by David sedaris is great!!

I like to read...lol

Secret life of Bees- Sue Monk Kid.

I've read it like 5 times.

Absolutely anything by Jodi Picoult. They are all told from different perspectives of different characters in the story, and they all make you wonder what you would do in that situation.

The skin I'm in.

Wonderful book about a lovely African American teen who needs to learn to love herself and her skin color.

To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee is my all time favorite book ever.

Pride and prejudice... But everyone knows that lol so another is a teen novel called China Garden

This girl moves back to her moms old town after her mom left as a 20ish year old. Her grandpa is dying and insisted the mom come back. The girl starts seeing this guy who talks about destiny and that they were meant for each other. There's magic, betrayal, love, and mystery. A good read ?

Redeeming love by Francine rivers. It's about a man that marries a prostitute & she keeps running away but he always goes back for her. It's a very good book. I've read it so many times.

The 5 People You Meet in Heaven - Mitch Albom

An old man dies and meets 5 people in heaven whose lives he influenced. I read it in a day. It's fantastic.

Leaving time by Jodi Picoult.

All of her books are great but this one is my favourite. A woman disappears after an accident at an elephant sanctuary (she studies them) leaving behind her husband who is in a mental institution and a now 12 year old daughter who is searching for her mother. The daughter doesn't believe the mother would ever leave her and tries to reopen the case to figure out what actually happened that night with help from two friends.

A very intriguing book - every chapter is from a different characters perspective and the twist at the end is mind blowing once all of the pieces are put together.

The husbands secret by liane moriarity.

A wife finds a note written by her husband that says "only read in the event of my death". It goes through the struggle of whether she should read it or not and how curiosity can kill the cat. And it's set in Australia!
