I'm looking for a good time (heh) - so tell me:
Is there someone you think i'd be good to be friends with?
How about a book you love that I should read?
Is there a song that I should check out?
{Optional, for those that partake: Is there a fic you really like and think I should read?}
p.s.: I am feeling better. Yay!

I can recommend a couple of books!
Jeannette Walls - The Glass Castle (its her life story and it is fantastic)
Anything by Jodi Picoult, especially My Sister's Keeper. (this book got me started on reading most everything else she has written)
Anything by Patricia Cornwell, if you like crime and forensics type stories.
Uumm, it's late and my allergy ridden brain refuses to let me think of anything else right now. :(
Oh, an dI love your icon! You always have the best ones!

No worries about being allergy-addled - I've been there too often myself!

Date: 2007-05-07 05:39 am (UTC)Also, two favorite teen books - "Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist" by Paul Levithan and Rachel Cohn, and "Boy Meets Boy,", also by Levithan.
[Nick and Norah and So Yesterday are superbly written - the falling-in-love scenes are incredibly sweet and kind of... I dunno. Just...good.]

Hm. Yeah. I think that's it.

In any case, Kane is pretty good - the lead singer is Christian Kane, who was on Angel, which is how I got into it, in the first.
