Book #3
So I didn't read the Boleyn Inheritance.  I read How to Be Lost by Amanda Eyre Ward instead.  It's a lovely little book of about 300 pages, but the story goes quite fast.  It reminded me a little bit of Jodi Picoult and Alice Sebold, especially with the subject matter of the story.  It's heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time in this story of a family broken apart after the abduction and supposed murder of a young girl.  The story structure is interesting, being told from the main character's point of view, letters, and flashbacks.  I highly recommend it. 

Next pick for Book #4: Stargirl, by Jerry Spinelli
