Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder. A really good book, possibly the most educational fiction book I've ever read. :D

I'm reading The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time for English class. We're required to read one book out of class from the crappy school list but this book isn't so crappy. It is about a guy with autism. :D

P.S. the book is a little cheesy

Sabriel, book 1 of Garth Nix's Old Kingdom trilogy. by far one of the greatest authors ever. he's in the top 4 with J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis and J.K. Rowling :D

Going Bovine by Libba Bray-hilarious and also sad when you realize what it's really about
The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest by Stieg Larsson-one of the main characters may even have some Aspie traits(but somehow manages to be incredibly tough and kickass)

.hack// Another Birth, Volume 1: Infection_

It's based off the manga so my library put it in the manga section, so I was a bit suprised to find it was an actual book.

BTW Levanah, welcome!
