Eden Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 I've read "We Need to Talk About Kevin" by Lionel Shriver. It is one of the most chilling and frightening books I've read. It is a compelling exploration of the family of a child who commits a serious crime from the perspective of his mother. Lionel Shriver deservedly won the Orange Prize with this book. Not a happy book but very well worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armi Custodio Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I read "Girl on a Train" and enjoyed it. If anyone needs a recommendation on the Sci-Fi/Apocalyptic/Dystopia genre, I highly recommend "Seven Eves" by Neal Stephenson. The story spans 5,000 years beginning with the earth being bombarded with meteor showers, causing devastation and forming an atmospheric cloud that will eventually make earth inhabitable. So earth launches an "Ark" into the atmosphere to ensure the survival of the human race. Thanks Cheri T, for introducing me to this author:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janedee Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Sounds good! I love Sci-Fi and am currently reading a Kim Harrison sci-fi novel, The Drafter which is also very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
