That's just evil, lol, choosing I mean.

In no order off the top of my head:

-Where the Red Fern Grows
-The Catcher Over the Rye
-Of Mice and Men
-1776
-The Hornet's Nest
-Diary of Elbridge Gerry, Jr. (Hard reading but it's very neat!)
-The Green Mile
-Fear Street Saga (Hey, it was one of the most interesting childhood series I've read and well written too!)
-Paul Revere's Ride
-Any biography about Sam Adams

...Yes, I read a lot of non-fiction these days. ;)
The sadness drains through me rather than skating over my skin. It travels through every cell to reach the ground. I filter it yet strangely enough, I keep what was pure and it is the dirt that leaves.

5 - Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow, Orson Scott Card
6 - The Mark of the Lion series, Francine Rivers
