Oh my.. I love that cover. I am a sucker for a beautiful one. Also, this looks amazing! Have you ever read Jade Green? It is probably one of my favorites ever. Figured I would pass along a suggestion since yours is definitely going on my to-read list!

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green read by Kate Rudd

Not really my genre, but the narrator Kate Rudd did a good job. I was trying to figure out why I liked Rainbow Rowell's Fangirl more than this - I can't quite put my finger on it but maybe the characters were a little too clever and sarcastic in FioS for my taste. Fangirl seemed more realistic to me.

/u/chelseasedoti's too modest to post it, but here's a link to her debut book on Amazon! It's called "The Hundred Lies of Lizzie Lovett."

I greatly enjoy YA sci-fi/dystopian novels. One trilogy I just finished that you may find of interest is The Skinned Trilogy by Robin Wasserman. I read it on my Kindle on a library loan, so it should be available to you as well. It's basically about a girl who dies and is then downloaded into a mechanical body. Very interesting. I have lots of other YA dystopian novel suggestions as well. As for a book I'd like, Trucker Ghost Stories sounds cool.

It's not a one word title, but it sounds like The Last Codfish, and the cover is similar to what you described.

>Fifteen-year-old Tut knows that his mother's drowning seven years before was his family's turning point. After she died, he stopped speaking, and his father began to drink heavily.

ITS GHOSTS

u/SlothMold · 2 pointsr/suggestmeabook

I'm guessing she'd prefer to stick to contemporary YA stuff then?

Some Suggestions:

  • Speak is about a high school freshman who's gone selectively mute.
  • The same author wrote Wintergirls, about eating disorders and a girl who keeps seeing her dead best friend.
  • Boy Proof is about a loner geek girl in a Hollywood high school.
  • If I Stay is about a girl reflecting on her life from a coma and has a movie now.
  • Thirteen Reasons Why is about a boy piecing together reasons for his crush's suicide.
  • The Perks of Being a Wallflower is about a freshman inducted into a group of older, hard-partying senior friends. It also has a movie version.
  • Eleanor & Park is about two misfits being each others' first love in the 80s.

The Lost Girl by Sangu Mandanna

From Amazon -
Eva's life is not her own. She is a creation, an abomination - an echo. Made by the Weavers as a copy of someone else, she is expected to replace a girl named Amarra, her 'other', if she ever died. Eva studies what Amarra does, what she eats, what it's like to kiss her boyfriend, Ray. So when Amarra is killed in a car crash, Eva should be ready. Eva is sent to take her place, knowing that if the deception is discovered it means her death.

I just finished reading the first Jack Reacher novel by Lee Child. I really liked it, especially for a last minute purchase at the train station. :)

When I was younger, I suffered some childhood problems of my own.
this book always made me feel better. Dunno why, it's a damn depressing book.

This sounds a lot like Wrecked by E.R. Frank

u/Ace1999 · 1 pointr/AskReddit

Book 1 and Book 2. You're welcome.

My first thought was of this book, which deals with the American Civil War and was required reading for me in middle school.
