Re: So, fandom, ready to rec?
Wind Up Bird Chronicle, by Haruki Murakami (it starts off slow, but it's sort of surreal and I think it's interesting. The war parts were especially good.)
Angelica, by Arthur Phillips (About a Victorian family whose daughter seems to be haunted by a ghost. Most of the book is through the mother's POV, in third person, but then goes through the rest of the family and the exorcist.)
Water For Elephants, by Sarah Gruen (Man joins the circus as a veterinarian and falls in love with a co-worker. It switches between then and his 90 year-old self and I thought his voice was just engrossing.)
Ella Minnow Pea, by Mark Dunn (There's an island where people idolize the creator of "The quick fox" phrase. He is a statue with the phrase underneath; the letters fall one by one and the island council sees it as a sign to leave out the letters in their speech and mail, with consequences to whomever uses them after the deadline. Written in letters and an easy read. If you like it, you should also check out his other book "Under the Harrow".)
Neverwhere, by Neil Gaiman (Man helps a girl on the street, who is a princess escaping assassination. They travel 'London Below' to stop the enemies. Good fantasy read.)
The Boy Who Couldn't Sleep and Never Had To, by D.C. Pierson (Exactly what it says, though it's mostly a teen friendship story. Not the best ending, but I felt the rest of the story was worth a read and I just liked reading about their teen adventures.)
Skeleton Creek series, by Patrick Carman (YA, but interesting and well-written. I've only read the first two, since technically the main story ended there. Guy and his lady friend investigated the nearby abandoned mill in their small town, and are forbidden from seeing each other. They send each other emails and look into a secret society based around the mill.)
Rebecca, by Daphne Du Maurier (Nameless protagonist marries a widow and lives in a huge English manor where the previous wife is the talk of everyone. A good classic; I personally found the scenery descriptions hard to read but everything else was fine.)
We Have Always Lived in the Castle, by Shirley Jackson (A girl and her older sister live in a castle above the town and rarely come out because of the peoples' hatred for them. One of their cousins come by and try to coax them out. It's short and has nice suspense.)
Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children, by Ransom Riggs (I actually haven't read it, but I plan to and it sounded very nice! It's about a boy whose grandfather told him all about the peculiar children and showed him photographs. His grandfather dies when he is a teenager, but he receives a letter that prompts him to investigate an island in search of the children. There's also actual photographs included within the book.)
I'm sorry that I don't know much of your tastes, but I hope you find at least one book you like in this list C:
