Book Suggestions Pretty Please...

This weekend we're DRIVING to California to watch this cute couple get hitched!

Problem: I get terribly car sick if I do anything more than sit or sleep.
Solution: Listen to book on i pod!

So all you book worms out there...pretty please send your suggestions my way!
(And you better not say Twilight...)

John Grisham is always good! The Firm is really good. I've heard Nicholas Sparks': The Choice is really good. But I'm not sure because I haven't read it.

Here are some of my recent reads:

Water for Elephants, The Emperor's Children, Memoirs of a Geisha (really liked this one), The Picture of Dorian Grey, and last but definitely not least...Atlas Shrugged (big book but totally worth it)

Oh..and Twilight :-)

HMMM... i m not much help on that one. But I am more than willing to help you find a dress for the big bash!!! Love you!!! I m lame and would listen to Harry Potter or Twlight... That makes me sound like I am 12 huh.. LOL

I haven't read for awhile, but I remember reading both the Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns. They were really good.

You could also go with the Shopaholic Series. They were cute, fun books. Plus you may get a person with a British accent as the reader. That is entertaining enough!

Have fun in Cali! I wish you guys had a wedding in DC then I could see you!

-Communist Manifesto- Karl Marx

Happy Listening :)

First... I'm so excited to see you guys!! It's been WAY too long! Second... I second the John Grisham notion. I've read most of his books and love them. My favorites are The Brethren and The Testament.

Love you guys! See you soon!

Right now I am reading Alice in Wonderland & Through the Looking Glass. It's a classic and also very lovely to read.

I have books you could read but since I only read trashy romance novels, I don't know if you would want to listen to them (blushing). Have you made any infant headbands yet? I am going to need some!
