My sister's keeper by Jodi Picoult
Do you wanna come with me? 'Cause if you do, then I should warn you - you're gonna see all sorts of things. Ghosts from the past. Aliens from the future. The day the Earth died in a ball of flame. It won't be quiet, it won't be safe, and it won't be calm. But I'll tell you what it will be: The trip of a lifetime!
Don't trust a perfect person and don't trust a song that's flawless.
RIP Granddad Terry. I'll miss you.

The Silmarillion- JRR Tolkien
Despite it being, in many ways, almost more tediously written, I'm actually enjoying it a lot more than I did reading The Lord of the Rings.

Ulysses by James Joyce. Beautifully written but almost completely incomprehensible.
