"These is my words" by Nancy Turner is hands down my favorite book ever. It's the first in a trilogy...love it! After I get it back from a friend, I'd be happy to loan it to ya!
"Austenland" by Shannon Hale is a quick, light read. It's the era we like Alicia and it's a romance novel---but a clean one.
"The Woman in White" by Wilkie Collins is great too. It's an 1859 novel.
I'm currently reading Jane Eyre again...it's been a while.
I'll have to tell you in person my ALL time favorite books :)
I just finished the "Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society" and LOVED it. Also, since you are having a little boy you should read "A Boy's Life". So cute. And I have also read These is My Words and it is fantastic, although I have to say I didn't love the sequels as much as the first... Congrats on the upcoming baby!
I like "The Lady's No. 1 Detective Agency" series by Alexander McCall Smith...because they all take place in the country of my heart, Bostwana. They're simple, light reading and very funny. Not sure if they're you're style...but they tell life lessons in a funny, uncomplicated way. And you can get through a whole book quite quickly.
just heard about one Nathan's cousin read that he said the story would be among his top 5 ever. Called "the hunger games". I am going to look for it tomorrow!
Shane's Other Titles: Long-Suffering Listener, Mountain Biker, Road Cyclist, Triathlete, Daddy Extraordinaire, Best Friend to the Chief Executive Mama, VP of Housekeeping

Oops...silly me, I should have spelled "Ladies" instead of "Lady's"...sorry!

"Lust for Life" by Irving Stone, its about Van Gough, historical fiction, great book.
