Summer reading.

During the past semester, I barely had any time to read real (ie, non-school) books. Thus I am trying to cram in reading as many books as possible in the time I have between semesters. I have read two novels in as many days, and I think I'd like to keep the book-of-the-day club going. But let me tell you a bit about what I read. First, I read Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson. Now, this book is young adult fiction, which, despite being almost 22 years of age, I still enjoy. However, despite its YA status, this was an amazing book. It was pretty emotional reading, but well worth it. Today I read Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro, which I couldn't put down simply due to the fact that I had to find out what happened, what it all meant, if the characters could somehow escape the cruel hand of fate! The whole plot started me thinking about bioethics and what it means to be human, which are always fun topics to kick around (but will probably keep me up at night).

Having finished those books, I'm now taking suggestions for what else I should read. Any genre is acceptable, as long as it's interesting and at least moderately intellectually stimulating.
