i've been reading alot more recently and i need ideas for new books?
Discount Medical Scrubs
need something interesting
NO biographies
novels, fiction prefered
i love quirky characters that are outside of the box
one of my favorite authors is chuck palahniuk, he wrote fight club and choke, his work is interesting, but its an easy reading... the plots are kinda twisted but i like that they're unpredictable

ive read the gossip girl, lord of the rings, harry potter, and twilight series and i loved them all
i love medical shows like house and scrubs so if there are any fiction/medical/comedy/drama books out there that you know of please tell me... i know thats really specific i just figure ill give everyone an idea of what kind of stuff i'd be into...

The Gallagher Girls Books are a great series. the books are 1: "Id tell you i love you, but then id have to kill you" and 2: "cross my heart and hope to spy" they rele are a great series. its about an all girls school that trains spies and stuff. it may not seem interesting when i explain it, but read the summary about them, and see if ur interested. heres a link about the first book:
Cammie Morgan is the main character in the book. The Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women is a fairly typical all-girls school—that is, if every school taught advanced martial arts in PE and the latest in chemical warfare in science, and students received extra credit for breaking CIA codes in computer class. The Gallagher Academy might claim to be a school for geniuses, but it is really a school for spies. Cammie Morgan is a second-generation Gallagher Girl, and by her sophomore year she is already fluent in fourteen languages and capable of killing a man in seven different ways (one of which involves a piece of uncooked spaghetti). But the one thing the Gallagher Academy hasn’t prepared her for is what to do when she falls for a boy who thinks she’s an ordinary girl, Josh. Sure, she can tap his phone, hack into his computer, and track him through town without his ever being the wiser—but can she have a relationship with a regular boy who can never know the truth about her?

If you liked Twilight, you will probably like "The Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins. It is hard to describe what it is about, but I absolutely LOVED it, even more than Twilight.

Pretty Little Liars series by Sara Shepard
(:
December 20th, 2010 at 11:18 am
If your into the lord of the ring, harry potter type books you might want to check out some of the Star Wars books. Many of them explain possible events between the movies and also adds a lot to the movies. I find Timothy Zahn to be one of the best authors of these books.
December 20th, 2010 at 11:18 am

Skinny by Sarah Dessen
City of Bones by Cassandra Clare

You should read Sara Manning books. They are so so good. My recommendations are
– just listen
– the truth about forever
– pretty things
– guitar girl
– Lets get lost
(some of those may not be Sara Manning…but i think most of them are at least)
Other books
– Reckless
– This lullabye
– bridget jone’s diary
– Last Chance
– Eragon??
They are all books that i have read and loved. I have also heard that PS I love you is an awesome book. And the boy in striped Pyjamas as well. But those are really really sad ones.
Hope this helps.

The books i LOVE are the Uglies series by Scott Westerfield.
There are 4 of them and they are like sci-fi.
They are amazing! Its like society is split into Uglies and Pretties…
Blurb:
"Everyone gets to be supermodel gorgeous. What could be wrong with that?"
Tally can’t wait to turn 16 and become pretty.16 is the magic number that brings a transformation from a repellent Ugly into a stunningly attractive Pretty, and catapults you into a high-tech paradise where your only job is to have a really great time. In just a few weeks Tally will be there.
But Tally’s new friend Shay isn’t sure she wants to be pretty.She’d rather risk lifeon the outside. When Shay runs away, Tally learns about a whole new world – and it isn’t very pretty. The authorities offer Tally the worst choice she can imagine: find her friend and turn her in, or never turn Pretty at all. The choice Tally makes changes her world forever.
You can buy them from Amazon, PLAY.com or WHSMITH for £6.99 each.
Hope this helped!

Uglies series by Scott Westerfeld
This is an extremely good book. It’s hard to explain but it’s about the future, after mankind basically destroyed the earth (global warming, destroying forests, polluting the ocean, etc) survivors made a new society where there’s no argueing, war, etc. Everyone is considered "ugly" until they turn 16 and have this sugery that makes them "pretty" and they move to this part of town where all they do is have fun and party all day and night. Tally, the main character cant wait to turn pretty. She meets Shay who’s a rebal and convinces Tally to leave the city for a night to see what’s out in the wilderness. Tally learns all kinds of things about being pretty and the truth is.. it’s not really pretty. EXTREMELY good, and the sequals (Pretties, Specials) are even better. It’s full of adventures, cool technologies, romance, etc. There’s also a fourth book from another perspective and it’s set in Japan called Extras, but it’s not as good as the others in my opinion.
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
This book is also set in the future and is extremely intense like you’re actually in the book. It’s setting is in Panem, a city that’s now in what’s left of North America (which has become smaller after global warming and melting of the ice caps). Surrounding Panem are 12 districts where each year, one boy and girl between the ages of 12 and 18 are chosen to be in the Hunger Games where they are put into an arena and battle each other and try to survive until there’s only one left and is the winner. There’s also romance in it and gets kind of sad. I cried at one point. haha but it’s really good. Stephanie Meyers, author of Twilight, even recommended it.
Deadly Little Secrets by Laurie Stolarz
It’s the first of it’s series and is also really good. It’s about a girl named Camelia who lives a normal life – dating, has friends, decent grades. But, one day when she was picking an earing that she dropped crossing the street, a car was coming towards her and it wasn’t stopping. Suddenly, a hot guy shoves her out of the way, saving her life. He left without her saying thank you or asking what his name was. Three months later, she’s starting her junior year in high school and there’s this rumor about a new guy named Ben who supposedly killed his girlfriend. Camelia doesn’t believe in rumors and when she sees Ben, it’s the guy who saved her life. She tries to talk to him but he ignores her at first, but later Ben begins touching her weirdly but Camilia only gets more drawn to him. She later finds out he’s not ordinary. He can know the future or past of a person by touching a person and he senses that Camelia’s in great danger. Really intense but good with a twisted love triangle.
I’ve read twilight and loved it but i thought these books were almost as good or even better.
Other books I’ve heard were good and planning to read is Need by Carrie Jones, Evernight by Claudia Gray, Lament by Maggie Stiefvater, Beastley by Alex Flinn, Old Magic by Marianne Curley, Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevin, the Blue is for Nightmares series by Laurie Stolarz, and Evermore by Alyson Noel (coming out in February)
I recommend Need by Carrie Jones if you really liked Twilight. I heard it was really similar but with werewolves instead of vampires and more. Some people told me they liked it better than Twilight too. So yeah.. you should check it out
