Top rated books

I am looking for a good new book. I have heard of some books that are top rated: A New Earth and Love In The Time Of Cholera but I have not picked them up. Any reviews on these two or any other books I should get?

I highly recommend www.threecupsoftea.com.I loved this book and it had everything I like in a story: love, action, romance, adventure, a great cause(empowering women) and a true story. If you purchase the book threw the link 7% of the profits goes to building schools. I hope the link works.

Eat, Love, Pray by Elizabeth Gilbert is an amazing book I just finished. A women's journey through exotic countries to basically just live life It was inspiring!

Yes I heard Eat, Pray, Love was absolutely amazing and I cannot wait to read it. I have read a lot of good Jodi Picoult books such as The Pact, My Sister's Keeper, and The 10th Circle. Also the 10th Circle is coming out as a movie on Lifetime soon. Im excited for that because it was a great book!

I’ve read Jodi’s Keeping Faith and I’m curious to see how her writing style translates into a movie, The Tenth Circle!!

I just finished reading Milan Kundera's (of The Unbearable Lightness of Being fame) Life Is Elsewhere and I really enjoyed it. It is somewhat slow and heavily introspective. I have heard high praise for Love in the Time of Cholera!

I cannot wait either, I love so many books by Jodi but I'm not sure when the 10th circle is coming out, anyone know?

I'm in the middle of "Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time" by Marcus J. Borg.

Fascinating book. When I finish it, I'm going to read it again.

If you are into natural history, a short history of nearly everything by Bill Bryson has some meat on the bone.

+1 on this I have 'read' it properly and also listened to the audio book and really enjoyed it both times

Island of Lost Girls by Jennifer McMahon
Animal Vegetable Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver are two I'd recommend

[StressFree]

David Sedaris' When You Are Engulfed in Flames. Sheer hilarity ensues. If you're looking for something more serious, Suite Francaise is very good.

Just finished reading John Adams by David McCullough. In some ways, politics were a lot rougher and meaner then than now. I came away thankful the thousands of letters used in McCullough's research survived. Abigail Adams rocks! What a strong woman.
