I totally agree--different points of view are really interesting, so I'll definitely have to check out those other two books you recommended.<br /><br />Happy reading:)<br />-leslieMichelle Santiagohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00040069428575572352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7570782455185394721.post-32780967348559167172011-08-15T00:16:07.273-04:002011-08-15T00:16:07.273-04:00@Lauren M-
Oh, thanks, Liar sounds good.
@Shell F...@Lauren M-<br />Oh, thanks, Liar sounds good.<br /><br />@Shell Flower-<br />Yes, great example! We loved The Lovely Bones.<br /><br />@Linda-<br />We think you'll like them. :)<br /><br />@Pseudo-<br />Oh, yeah, we forgot about that one. We should check it out... Jodi Picoult's House Rules has multiple POVs, and one is from an autistic teenage boy.<br /><br />@Heather-<br />Neither could Kristan! (The others of us haven't read it yet.)<br /><br />@Ingrid-<br />Yep, I dig multiple POVs too. When they're done well and differentiated, that is.We Heart YAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02418854853031344928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7570782455185394721.post-24741849129519537472011-08-14T19:52:12.965-04:002011-08-14T19:52:12.965-04:00I adored The Art of Racing in the Rain, and the ot...I adored The Art of Racing in the Rain, and the other two are on my list. I also like it when each chapter is told from a different character's POV. Right now I'm thinking of a MG book I read to my son last year... Gordan Korman's Schooled. We both loved it.Ingrid Palmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364524474913363888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7570782455185394721.post-52740969888450143302011-08-11T07:57:41.187-04:002011-08-11T07:57:41.187-04:00I loved Room!

I'll be reading Room this fall for a lit class, so I'm excited to dive into the mind of a young boy. <br /><br />In terms of recommendations, LIAR by Justine Larbalestier definitely brings an interesting point of view--the narrator is a teen girl, but she's a compulsive liar, and constantly changes her story. Thus, the reader is never sure what's actually happening.Lauren Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05749629168151466704noreply@blogger.com
