Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close by Jonathan

My college-age daughter had to read this for a class
and insisted that I read it. I could not put it down and didn't want it to
end. So imaginative.
Sweetness in the Belly by Camilla Gibb.
My only
disappointment is that I hadn't read it sooner. An amazing story beautifully
told. I kept forgetting it is fiction.

Monster, 1959 by
David Maine.
David Maine brings his
unique brand of wit and creativity to "Monster, 1959." What seems at first
to be a parody of the wildly popular monster movies of the 1950s--complete
with bad dialogue, unconvincing monsters, and improbable plots--turns out to
be an exceptionally entertaining but thought-provoking fable that leaves the
reader wondering who the monsters really are, us or them?
