The Collected Works of A.J. Fikry
by Gabrielle Zevin
 

 
Well this book has saved me. Yes, I had a problem for the last few months. That is, I have been unable to finish a book. Me! Me who loves books, loves reading. I just couldn't finish one. I would read a quarter and then flip to the end. I tried all genres, but nothing helped. There would be books piled high on my bedside table, but not much reading got done.  It's not the books' fault I know, it's me.  But then this glorious book landed on my desk. Yes it is only 243 pages, but I read every single word on every single page, from start to finish and I loved it entirely.
 
I won't tell you more because I want you to read it and love it like I do!

Lost and found (I think) by Brooke Davis





Lost & Found by Brooke Davis is an interesting, easy read with the quirkiest characters you will ever read. The characters will make you cringe, lough out loud and often say 'What the?!?'.
There is the cute 7yr old Millie obsessed with death, 82yr old Agatha Pantha who constantly shouts obscenities at people and measures her wrinkles each morning, and 87yr old Karl (the touch typist) who carries around 'Manny' (a plastic mannequin).... Need I say more.
A light read that will keep you going to the end, even if its just to say.... this is ridiculous!
I must admit it does have an ending that I didn't mind at all.
