Try any books by Richard Price, Wanderers, Blood Brothers, Clockers, Freedomland. If you like gritty urban tales. I've just read them all a second time and enjoyed them even more.

Dessa Rose, by Shirley Ann Williams is a book that i read last month and i did a book report about it . It's a very interesting book by the way! Talking about an unlikely relationship between a slave and a white woman.
I suggest you to also read The blacker , the Berry!It's a book about skin color prejudice during the harlem renaissance. Check them out! They are really interesting!

futuristic/apocalyptic books almost always tend to be quite memorable, if written by a good author.

eg The Shadow Children sequence by Margaret Haddix.  Scary but enjoyable. Has seven books in the series.

Books of Ember  by Jeanne Duprau.  Fantastic- especially the first two. Three books so far. The other ones are forthcoming.




Percy Jackson and the Olympians (series). Fantasy- battle between good and evil, with all kinds of monsters thrown in. Very exciting reading though classified as young adult. I've read the first three, still looking for the fourth one, and meanwhile the fifth book is in production. Also scary but in a different way.



The Far Pavilions by M M Kaye is unforgettable, I think. Likewise Trade Wind by the same author. 



lots more, but these are the ones coming to mind right now.

Francine Rivers is one of the best.


Her Mark of the Lion series is a classic. Just too good. Cheesy Cheesy

I intend to check out most of her other books. I read Redeeming Love as well, and it was so moving.


I havent tried Ted Dekker yet, but may do so one of these days.
