Almost French: Love and a New Life in Paris
by Sarah Turnbull
"Thanks to Sarah Turnbull, I now know why the French are so...French! Her struggles to make new friends, start a new career, and nurture a relationship with a dyed-in-the-wool Frenchman are by turns hilarious and thought-provoking. A must-read for anyone thinking of moving to France, for a few weeks or forever." -- Susan Hickman, Distant Lands Travel Books, Pasadena, CA

In Me Own Words: The Autobiography of Bigfoot
by Graham Roumieu
"Bigfoot's journals show his life is at once more complex and more bizarrely humorous than I ever suspected. Make sure to read this one with people around so you can share your favorite lines and pictures! (On his political career--'This picture ruin Bigfoot.')" -- Maryelizabeth Hart, Mysterious Galaxy Books, San Diego, CA

Stone Garden : A Novel
by Molly Moynahan
"Moynahan's debut novel is a literate, painful, and realistic accounting of the inner life and resiliency of modern teenagers. Perhaps The Catcher in the Rye for this generation, Stone Garden should be on the short list for mature teens ready to head out into the world." -- Nan Carmack, Bookends, Forest, VA

The Time Traveler's Wife: A Novel
by Audrey Niffenegger
"The love story of Henry and Clare is complicated by Henry's strange genetic affliction--involuntary time travel as unpredictable and uncontrollable as a sneeze. This is a complex and captivating novel of love, loss, and acceptance, with an amazing twist at its end." -- Sharon Miller, Vista Book Gallery, Boise, ID
