The Mortal Instruments series. I'm currently on the book City Of Glass. It's really amazing so far.

"Agorafabulous! Dispatches from my bedroom" by Sara Benincasa

[ame="http://www.amazon.com/Agorafabulous-Dispatches-Bedroom-Sara-Benincasa/dp/0062024418/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1349531526&sr=8-1&keywords=agorafabulous"]Agorafabulous!: Dispatches from My Bedroom: Sara Benincasa: 9780062024411: Amazon.com: Books[/ame]

I loved this memoir! It was laugh out loud funny and also quite interesting and relatable for any of us who struggle with varying degrees of anxiety, depression, or quirkiness! I wouldn't read it 10,000 times (Yes, some books I do read 10,000 times.), but it was definitely agorafabulous, and I strongly recommend it

"If I Am Missing or Dead" by Janine Latus

[ame="http://www.amazon.com/If-Am-Missing-Dead-Liberation/dp/B0046LUM98/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1349532574&sr=8-1&keywords=if+i+am+missing+or+dead"]If I Am Missing or Dead: A Sister's Story of Love,Murder,and Liberation: Janine Latus: Amazon.com: Books[/ame]

This is an incredibly powerful memoir about coming from a dysfunctional family and how that carried over to this woman's relationship's as well as her sister's relationships. The writing is exquisite (The author is a writer.), and the story is so powerful. I related to it deeply. Here's a quote that I loved:

"When I was at home as a teenager, I could tell that something was always roiling under the surface. It was like walking on smoked glass over something awful, like rushing water or lava or snakes. You're on it and it's fine, but it's glass and it could crack, and you'd drop into that something awful and be sucked down. And even if it doesn't crack, you can feel those snakes, that danger, vibrating under the surface of things."

I highly recommend this book.

The road to grace: the third journal of the walk series / by Richard Paul Evans.

I sometimes take books off the shelf without knowing what it is when I'm at the library. This was one of those.

It's actually pretty good.
