Have you ever lost track of a favorite book from your childhood because you can’t remember the title or author? Do you have the story on the tip of your tongue? Can you explain the plot, describe the cover, or know the era, but just can’t remember the one detail you need in order to actually find the book? We’ve been there and know exactly how frustrating this can be. Below are a few tips we’ve used when searching for a lost book we love.
Tips to Find a Book When You Don’t Know the Title or Author
If you’re currently suffering from a case of book amnesia, try some of these tricks to see if they can spark your memory and help you remember more than a vague cover image or a quirky side character you loved.
First, Wrack Your Brain for Book Memories
When it comes to finding a book you have only a vague recollection of, you need to fish out everything you can possibly remember about it from your memories. Answer the below questions to see if they help you recover any additional information about your book.
- What did the cover look like? Do you only remember a fuzzy image that’s predominately one color? Even that is a clue! If you think hard, do you remember any elements on it? Was the author’s name in large print, or was the title large? Any of these details can be the difference between success or failure.
- Can you remember a phrase, quote, or a particular paragraph of the book? Sometimes you can remember lines you felt were funny or meaningful or just plain weird. Write them down as best you can for your search. Odds are that same phrase may have stood out to someone else too.
- What can you remember from the plot? Even if you’re not entirely confident, write down what you think you remember. You might find your memory looks something like “boy gets kidnapped. Girl best friend says she’ll find him. I think she becomes a detective at some point or runs into him later in life and they fall in love. The boy may be involved in drugs or something sketchy when she runs into him. I think at one point he wakes up in a dumpster.” Even though you’re not one hundred percent certain, you can try different searches with the elements you think are there and hopefully in one combination, you’ll get a hit. Or, hopefully your details will be close enough that someone else can piece the elements together.
- Can you remember any characters’ names? Remembering one or two of the characters’ names will also be a huge help in your search. Even if they’re side characters and not main characters, write them down.
- What genre was it? If it was fantasy, do you remember any details to narrow it down to a subcategory of fantasy?
- Do you remember any other story-related details, like a city name, street, location, pet, era, etc.?
- Do you remember any details related to publishing? Do you remember whether your school or library that you got the book from often bought books from a certain publisher? Do you remember when the book was published? For example, if it was a book you read from your childhood, then you know you can exclude any recent publications. Or, perhaps you remember that it was a new book that came out when you were in high school, then you’ll know to look for books published only in those few years. Do you remember any other similar authors that people seemed to also read if they liked the book you’re trying to remember?
Remember to write down as much information as you can, and maybe you’ll remember some more details in the process of finding your lost book.
Google and Other Search Engines
When you first try to search for a forgotten novel, you probably turn to Google or a similar search engine. Unfortunately, your average search may not be able to get you the results you’re looking for. Because of the vast volume of novels with similar plot elements and various SEO tactics and companies skewing the search results to favor their products, unless the book you’re searching for happens to be one of the most popular books of its kind, you’re going to have to do a deep Google.
Let me explain. If you’re looking for a book about mermaids, but you’re definitely not looking for something super popular like Disney’s The Little Mermaid, you may become frustrated that no matter what variation of “mermaid” search terms you try, you still find Little Mermaid results popping up on top because Disney can afford to pay people a lot of money to make sure their products stay on top of the search results.
So when searching for a forgotten novel, you’ll often have to use all the different details you remember from the book with Google’s different search functions. For example, quotations will be your friend to make sure Google doesn’t try to eliminate distinguishing details. The addition symbol will be useful for linking multiple elements into one search. Try using the Advanced Google Search Page with filters like subject, publisher, language, and publication date as well. Another tip is to always check the image results. If you’re on the right track, then sometimes an image result will appear more quickly than general search results. There are other advanced Google search skills that you can give a try too, like excluding specific keywords or using the wildcard operator to guess the name of a character.
Google Books Search
The Google Books Library Project now makes it possible to find books by searching through their text and content. The Books Search reference page also displays book specific information like various covers, tables of content, common terms and phrases, and popular passages from the books. You can quickly view sample pages to ensure that the book you’ve found is the book you’ve been looking for.
There are several other book databases you can find as well, such as Book Finder, Word Cat, LibraryThing, Book Sleuth, Goodreads, Amazon’s Advanced Book Search, and Library of Congress. However, if you haven’t been able to find the book you’re looking for with a Google search, you probably don’t have enough information to find it in one of these databases either. If you want to give some of these a try though, these are some of the ones we find the most useful.
- Book Cave: This site has the unique feature of being able to search through a rated books database. So if you know a book was a children’s book, you can avoid any adult rated book. Or if you know it’s an adult rated book you can exclude anything milder.
- The Library of Congress: This the biggest online library in the world and has a search engine capable of combining search parameters with keywords. There’s also an interesting option called “Ask a Librarian” where you can send an email and try asking for help in finding your book.
- Worldcat: Worldcat is a catalog of over 70 thousand libraries in 160 countries. Here you can look for a specific keyword, and you’ll get a list of book titles in various languages. There’s also a “Fiction Finder” section where you can search for a book by a character or place in addition to a keyword.
- Big Book Search: If you can only remember what the cover looks like, try this cover-search tool.
- If you can remember just one word of the title, use the search function on Goodreads or Library Thing to find long lists of titles with a particular word.
- Goodreads’ browse-able lists of titles that readers have shelved in unique categories, such as authors’ professions or decades of publication, may also be helpful.
Turn to Reddit or Other Popular Book Forums
Is there anything that the people of the internet don’t know? If computerized searches fail and you need a personalized touch, there are thousands of fellow book lovers out there who would love to help you out. Places like Reddit, Tumblr, Goodreads, and several other bookish forums have book sleuths that seem to be able to solve even the vaguest of mysteries. Reddit in particular has several dedicated sections such as Tip of My Tongue, What’s That Book, Books, and PrintSF for when you can only remember the cover. Just take a scroll through the book section of Reddit to find a thread that best meets your needs. If Reddit isn’t your thing, check out some of these other book forums and groups:
- Goodreads What’s the Name of That Book? is a group that will help solve your book mystery after you’ve done a valiant effort to first find it yourself.
- LibraryThing’s Name That Book is another place where you can post about your forgotten novel. Just follow their instructions and try to wrack your brain for as many details as you can, and fellow readers will do what they can to find your book.
- Stump the Bookseller is a blog run by a cool indie bookstore in Ohio that offers a $4 dollar service to help readers find lost books, specifically childhood books. Plus they have large searchable archives that you may find helpful as well.
- The Fiction_L listserv is another place where you might be able to get some help, although they don’t seem to have a section dedicated exclusively to finding lost books.
Ask Your Own Social Network and Community
Post on all your social networks, reach out to friends from the time when you were reading the book, and ask a local librarian or even old school teachers. You might be surprised to find that your personal community is the missing link needed to find your book. Communities often have similar interests, so the books you enjoyed as a child might be the same books your friends and others in your town also enjoyed and borrowed from the library.
Your own circle may be especially helpful if you can remember the time that you read the book. If you know you read the book in junior high or high school, reach out to your friends from that era and see if they remember anything about the books you were reading back then. If you’re like me, you probably have a whole friendship circle of readers and you probably not only told them about every book you read but also offered to let them read it as well so you could talk about it. You never know what odd memories a person may be able to recall from their past.
When All Else Fails
If you’ve gone through all of these things and still aren’t able to find the elusive book you’re looking for, then you may have to accept that it’s not going to happen or even that you may not be remembering it correctly. I remember one story about a person looking for a particular Danielle Steele book who later realized the book she was looking for was actually by Daniel Silva. These kinds of close but not quite recollections are understandably frustrating because while you’re confident you’re looking for the right thing, in the end you were actually going down the wrong rabbit hole the entire time and may not even have realized it.
Another consideration is whether what you’re looking for is even real. There have also been times in my life that I’ve been convinced something that happened in a dream was real life, and oftentimes my dreams take up various elements of books I’ve read. Could you possibly be remembering a detail wrong or combining several different books from your past? Whatever the case may be, hopefully you can at least be somewhat cheered up by the list of books you’ve uncovered in your search that at least have many similar elements to what you were looking for.
Happy reading!

The book I'm looking for is about a group of people who have taken a drug that transforms them into what they truely are. For example one couple, the man turns into a small fairy with wings like a moth and his wife turns into a giant amazon who dies by the leaf of the mother in-law plant. Another character turns into an African mythological creature who rides a type of wild boar that has a bone shape object on its back that she connects to to ride. There are about a dozen different people. They are in an enclosed lab like place during this experiment. I believe the main character is trying to decided whether or not to take the pills(?) and change and then leads a revolt against the main protagonist who is the small fairy with moth wings and his wife the giant amazon. I think the book was written between 1950-1990's. I think the cover was a face with a moth over it and the eyes were the spots on the wings. I remember reading it around 2005ish from the library in Northern CA. Vallejo Main Library to be exact. Thanks for any help.

It was about this teenage girl who was in high school and finds out her boyfriend was riding to school on his motorcycle and crashes and dies. But suddenly she has this feeling to go for a walk and she ends up outside of town at this abandoned house, and it’s night time by then and she goes in and he appears and tells her what happened to his bike that someone cut his breaks. & other ghosts live there too. But when morning comes they disappear. & she goes back and they reappear.
The book I'm looking for is about a woman that wakes up on the floor in someone else apartment in a younger woman's body. She tries to figure out who this young woman is and what happen to herself. The color of the book I think was red and orange. I do remember that the photo on it was in black and it was maybe the back of a woman's head but if you look at it you could see two women's face outlines.
The book is about a teenage girl who’s boyfriend dies in a motorcycle accident.
& he lives outside of town in this abandoned house with other ghosts but she can only go see him at night because he disappears when it’s morning.
The book cover is green, it has the drawing of a woman made out of vines and branches sinking in water.
It’s subplot is about an island that every year makes a witch made of or vines and so forth and every year they push her off the cliff to sink in the sea
Hello! I am in search of a book, from my childhood. (1968--1978). It was a Scholastic book, from a book club. The front had a tall, rock, bridge, with a deep cavern below. The story was about travelers. Each character was a fantasy-type person. One of them was a "snake-man". That's all I can remember about it. Thank you!
VERY DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF A BOOK IM TRYING TO FIND!
A teen girl moves to a new town with her parents. she might have some mental health issues or grieving as a relative may have died (idk for sure). In her room is a teen boy ghost who died there. she doesn't notice him at first but he slowly manages to communicate with her (i think with touch) and using her energy he begins to become a little more 'human' and they are able to talk, and she sees him. the girl also goes to a new school and has barely any friends, until she meets a guy there. she hangs out with him more and catches feelings. Then at some point, the popular girls invite her over for a sleep over or something like that and i think it doesnt go down well. she also catches feelings for the ghost in her room, and they often sneak out? I'm not sure. the ghost has this special place by the sea (like a cave) which he has fond memories of from when he was alive. the girl helps him move on to the afterlife, but when he says hell leave she tries to kill herself to join him. but the ghost tells her not to and it ends with her dating the guy from school and the ghost having moved on. this chapter might begin with from the ghost's point of view, waking up dead and seeing the girl enter. if you could find this book ill be so happy, been looking for it for a long time!! thank u 🙂

This is hazily remembered from childhood in the 1980's. There was a book in which the animals in a petstore talked to each other at night. The one I remember the most was the story of an ape who was a transformed princess or something like that. At the end, the ape/princess still has a ring which is used to pay for something.
Trying to remember a book from a ghosts POV I believe, I don’t remember much but I am dying to know what it is! It’s a female girl that is driving and comes to a turn that is a cliff and she goes off of
It and dies. There might be other ghosts down there with her and she tries to stop other cars from getting confused and going down and that’s pretty much all I remember..
Hi there, Im looking for a book which I read in elementary, I remember that there was 3 main characters 2 of them were boys and one of them was a girl I think the girls name was Lucy but then again I read this in elementary so I don't remember much, I know they went though paranormal experiences at the school one of them being lucy going into a locker which lead her somewhere and another being one of the boys having to skate on ice to save his friends on the cover of this book I remember the boy who was skating going towards the camera while skating away from the school with his friends by his side and behind him on the ice he was skating on there was a shadow of a hand chasing after them. I think the book might have been a comic but i'm not too sure
the last part where I was describing what it looked like was one of the books covers which was either the 3rd of 4th book I think
Hi. I have been desperately trying to find a book from my childhood. I read it all the time and it was my favorite! My aunt took it to goodwill after we had garage sale at her house and since I left i accidently, left it behind she assumed it was part of the sale and that was that. I do not recall the author, nor the title, nor do I even remember how it came into my life. Was it a family members (like a great grandmothers? great aunt? did someone buy it for me? did i get it at the school book fare. I have no clue) I do know it was before 1987, but again, it was from anytime before that, so it could have been anytime between 1920s or so all the way to late 80s. All i remember is it was about a dog, a cat, and a pig that went on an adventure. I remember them coming up on a circus and the only other thing i remember was the picture of the cat standing on the huge ball in the circus tent. I know it's not The Incredible Journey that homeward bound was based off of. There was no pig, that was 2 dogs and a cat. This specifically had a dog, pig, and a cat. Every used book store i come across i literally spend hours in there looking at every book in hopes to find it again. If anyone remembers this book I would be so grateful. (Also the sporadic pictures that were in it were in black and white). Thank you for your time

Hey, so I am looking for a book that I read sometime either in middle or high school. All I remember is that there was a boy who stayed in either a nursing home or a psychiatric facility, but I think it was a nursing home, while his dad was away. I believe his mother is deceased or something. His dad was some kind of scientist or explorer or something like that. When the dad comes home, when he leaves for his next trip, the boy goes with him and they end up on a boat where the dad's new girlfriend is with them but the boy does not realize they are dating until later in the book. The last thing I remember is that they were stopped somewhere and the boy saw a man watching them I think and at one point they get attacked. Does anyone know what book or reading I am referring to??
IF YK WHAT BOOK I AM TALKING ABOUT PLEASE DM ON INSTA @wr.lizz
I'm looking for a mystery book. I don't remember much about it. Only the fact that the cover is very simial to "Where The Forest Meets the Stars", but I know for a fact that's not my book. My book is about some type of rivalry between detectives, and I'm pretty sure a lady is found dead by an alley or by one of those giant garbage bins. I also remember someone's wife is murdered, and most of the characters are rich or part of the upper class. There is also a small girl who cried because her parents are going through a divorce. I don't remember much, but I believe the cover is a big help. It's dark blue with trees with a starry night sky. Mainly a mystery and detective book.
There is also a major trial that goes on between the two rivaling detectives or lawyers. Now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure they were lawyers, it's all very foggy. Please help.
I'm looking for a friend of mine, she's looking for a fav book from her childhood and she's about 70 now and this is what she recalls of it.
So, this is very far-fetched, but when I was younger we got this book from Goodwill, but I honestly have no idea where it went; All I know is that it was a YA graphic novel horror story. It might have had supernatural themes but I don't remember. It had a fake leather cover, and it might have had fake blood spatter. It also might have been multiple short stories in one book. I distinctly remember it having curse words in it, and possibly, like, gray-tinted pictures, but was colored.
on the off chance someone here has read this:
looking for a book i read a few years ago, its most likely a YA Sci-fi genre novel.
about a girl that has this telepathy power and while at her barista/waitress job, gets recruited by this man who takes her to a program/dormitory where theres a group of other teens with abilities. i know there's one possible male love interest in the book too if that helps. i can't recall any other details but i need to know i didn't just make up this whole book lol.
if it helps, i think the title had something like 'normals' in it, like supernormals, abnormals, etc.

Looking for an old book who’s protagonist is called Lucky, he is a cat who acts like a human. It’s a Choose your own adventure book and he gets into situations where he can go to a rich boarding school or a poor one, he can become a farmer or work at sea on a boat, he gets trapped on an island with cannibals and many more situations. I believe he is swinging on something on the cover. It’s a realistic looking cat with human personalities.

This book I found in a 5th grade library was my favorite, finding it would mean the world to me and help regain some old memories. So this books cover was black splashed with white, had a pencil and apple on the cover, either had crumpled up paper or a paper airplane on the front, was paperback. The story itself was of a girl who’s classmate (I think) tommy or something like that liked her and made her a pie out of sweet berries and that he later dies. I can’t remember the rest as it was 2017-2019

Hi, I am looking for a book. I remember I read it in elementary school. It was about a boy who couldn't go outside at all. Their family had a house by a farm and they made their money with crops.

The guy who went to jail was training a dog and the dog was adopted by the girl. There is a character named Camile and she died her hair crazy colors if that helps. The cover had a dog behind a fence. Can anyone help me with finding out what the book is? Thank you.

Then one of them was murdered in a bathroom and for a while after, the one still living was confused with her identity. I want to say the title had the words, “The (something that started with a B) Girls.”
I do not know this excact story but it is these 2 twin girls who switch places and one gets kidnapped it’s called “beautiful lies” by Jessica Warman

I'm looking for a book I think is about a girl looking for her dog or stuffed animal around a mountain. I only remember a picture of a very long tunnel and a mountain surrounded by many awesome things. I don't remember anything else about it.

I remember another thing, It had a blanket in the final scene!
Hi, I'm looking for a book or rather a series about two sisters who own a flower or candy shop.
The first book is about the one sister who falls for a guy with a motorcycle and I remember the guy makes a joke and sticks his head under her t-shirt while they are in the hospital (I think one of them hurt their ankle) and talks to her stomach and she thinks there might be a baby in her belly but he makes a joke and says the freckles on her stomach looks like a face of a baby.
The second book is about the other sister where she has a crush on the dentist in town and accidentally chips her tooth and goes to the dentist to fix it and they fall in love. She also has a orange cat.
These two books/series is really funny. Please let me know when you find it??!!
I don't remember much, but the cover was dark purple with a shadow of two detectives and a cat on it. I know the end of the book took place on a train that I think the characters and the cat were trying to escape. I also remember they got out of a car at the end and were taken somewhere. The cat also told stories about its life leading up to where they were. Please help!
I also remember there was a male and female protagonist if that helps.
I also think it had Lantern in its title.
A little sister feels left out when her older brother and a friend builds sand castles for a competition she ruins it for him by leaving a sandwhich on the castle and the dog demolishes it when he eats the sandwhich. She gets grounded from the fireworks.
The book was about dragon riders. In this book the man char was a boy who was pretty much the Cinderella. In the story there was a cave where dragons would lay their eggs, and every year kids about a certain age would go into the cave and an egg would hatch for them. Basically choosing a rider. Well there was an egg that would never hatch and I can not remember if it was larger then the others, but it had hatched however for the kid everyone bullied and was thought to be worthless. I really want to pick this book back up and reread it. It was a book from when I was a child and it may be a children's book but I don't care.
I’m looking for a book I read about a year and a half ago,
It’s a 21st century type scene

The female lead. Is dating the mayors son, and she ends up helping this old man with an armband.
She ends up going to court and after much guilt and lying confesses to everything making her guilty of all 5 brands.
The mayor being mad gives her a 6th brand in the center of her back.
The last scene in the book is one of the judges giving her a business card.
That’s all I remember hope this helps!

I am looking for a book that I read in the 90s. It was a YA book about a boy who lived in the city with his mother after having lost his father. (All details are very fuzzy) The cover is what I remember most vividly. It had a sepia tone, scratched canvas sort of feel (it reminded me of the cover of The Downward Spiral). There was the protagonist boy sat down with his head resting on his knee. The book was a huge bummer, and everything that happened was depressing. I also maybe remember a connection to a single flower, or a root structure? The flower was a metaphor for the boy, the single beautiful thing growing in the horrible, poverty stricken environment. If I remember right...

The setting is out west in Montana or Iowa or there about. The child they adopt is a girl and grows up and also gets pregnant at a young age and the foster family deal with helping her to handle her life moving forward. I need to know the title and/or author please!!!

There was this book I read a couple of years ago about time and in the story there was a young girl dealing with suicide and an old man dealing with not wanting to die and I believe the cover was also red.
I read this book when I first entered middle school but the book got taken away before I could finish it because it was at the wrong school. I'm now halfway through high school and I'm still stuck on this book.
the main character is a teenage boy who has a crush on a popular girl named (Maria?) I believe she was Hispanic. but once he got to know (Maria?) personally he finds out that her life isn't all that lavish.
I believe (Maria?) lived with her sister.
the main character and (Maria) went into a neighborhood that was under construction and had a "date" in one of the houses
I also believe the cover of the book had a semi purple tint.
the book also took place at a high school a few times
in one part of the book, the main character gets intimate with (Maria?) and he describes her undergarments as lace & in the color Lavander.

I’ve this lovely historical romance novel long time ago, and still remember the story. I would like to read it again, however, I no longer remember the title or the name of the author. The story is a bout a rich girl who sought for an adventure, ran away, boarded a train, met a girl and discovered that the girl was to become a an unwilling mail-order bride because she was in love with her boyfriend, so the rich girl had an idea, she was to be the mail-order bride who would marry a rich Texas rancher. Both girls agreed. Finally, the rich girl married the Texas rancher. After a few months, the other girl, showed up at the Texas rancher and introduced herself as his mail-order bride. And the story got more exciting from there.
I'm looking for a romance book that I read long time ago. The plot is: father of a blind child falls in love with the boy's tutor/babysitter who actually is his aunt. The babysitter had come to investigate her sister's sudden death and had initially thought the husband was the suspect. (Either the son or the father's name was Pete or Peter.
A novel about a woman who has 4 daughters I think they were Heather, Jasmine, Posey, and Lily. She meets another man, leaves her husband and the story then jumps about 10 years, and is then told from one of the daughter’s perspective. One of the daughters Posey drowned while swimming the English Channel.
It's a book about a man who goes to war comes back and becomes a duke he later stabs the king with a poisonous blade and takes over but rules poorly the people eventually rise up and kill him I think it has a scottish or irish themed name but cant even remember much about it.

She was only about 3 and her aunt took her in because her dad was nowhere to be found and he was a suspect. She has a trunk of evidence from the crime scene in her attic and she goes to a high school where something is going on with the science room. I can't remember much and these are just different pieces. Somewhere near the end she gets kidnapped and almost dies.
The title is rivers end by Nora Roberts
Is she a teenager throughout the book? I'm not sure this is the one because I remember her being a teenager and her father was missing.
Does she get sorta involved with her neighbor, and ends up trapped underground? Almost dies. If so, I think I know what book you're talking about
I'm not sure I know she gets caught up with some guy her age though. Also she does almost die because she gets kidnapped by someone.
Hey, I am looking for this short novel I read, I believe it is Canadian and may have the word "firefly" in the title but I could be off.

She spends time at a cottage with her close girl friend and they hook up, she has a boyfriend and they watch Cannibal Holocaust together and later she finds out he ended up hanging himself in his shed to kill himself because he reacted badly to drugs.
At the end she's at a cottage or something with her father and there is a small flood of some sort.

She was later attacked and lost her memory and the police found his card in her purse. He took her to the hotel he owned and let her stay there. The police were looking for her attackers and will let the man know once that happens. He took her to a business meeting. That’s all I remember!

She’s a virgin who meets this older bad boy (Jason? Probably still way off) he introduces her to all sorts of bad things and becomes abusive. She in detail describes her “first time” and its similar to rape... I believe in part of it she describes how she felt afterwards and how she had semen caked to her inner thigh. For whatever reason I think the book is called “(female main charters name), journal”
I've been trying to find a series of books that I read in fourth grade. They were likely published between 1980-2000.

They were blue with a photo of the animal on the front.

There was also something to do with a dock and maybe drowning. If anyone recognizes this story at all please let me know, I really want to find it and read it again.

Looking for a book I read back in 1994-95(?) the setting was in Florida near a beach. Don't know when book was published. It was about a young woman who I believe had a son and was hiding from the child's father(?) It seemed no matter where she went he would locate her. Her last move was to a town in Florida (Sebring)? At the time I had been reading the book I commented on the author's name of "Bulock or Bullock. It reminded me of the actress "sandra bullock". I don't believe it was a book by her. Didn't think she was an author. Can't remember how the book ended but I am sure the woman character in the book had resolved her needing to hide out and keeping her son safe. If you can find this book, it will be a miracle. Thanks for all your help.

i am looking for a book that i read a few years ago. it was a book that took place in a dystopian future where people had to pay these government fees and had to make a certain amount of money. Well, this one family fell short on the payment one time. when people are unable to pay, their oldest child is taken away to work for these government facilities in order to make up for the families debt. This family’s oldest child, a boy which i do not remember his name, was taken. i remember that this one woman in particular always went to take the children away, along with body guards in case any violence or resistance occurred. she was the overseer of the building that they took the boy to. the building was separated by floors based on your intelligence level. for example, the basement was the lowest intelligence level and the top floor with the pool and gym was the highest intelligence level. in order to figure out where to put the kids, they had to take a test. the higher the score the more intelligent they were. this boy was put on the highest level where he would work on computers all day coding or hacking some thing i think. the children were not allowed on any other level of the building but their own because they were not supposed to know that there were other kids on different levels. the kids are able to email their families but the find out that the messages never really got through. the boy sets out to uncover all of the secrets that this place is hiding. he escaped the building, but was brought back in and put on a lower level. he meets a girl who helps him in figure out what this place was hiding from them all. he eventually uploads files from i believe the secretary’s computer and shows them to the world. in the end, the kids get to go back to their families. i’m sure that there were some parts that i left out but i’ve tried looking it up and ended up with nothing. i hope someone can help me find this book. thanks!
i believe the cover had a bunch of 1’s and 0’s on it. and i always thought the name was some think like “coded” but nothing really come ups when i search for it. i have no idea who the author is so that makes it even more difficult. but thank you to anyone who can help figure this out!
Hi, I'm looking for a book the I believe I read on Kindle. It was either on Kindle unlimited or prime. It's about a girl who owns a coffee shop and this guy walks in and I believe his name is king. If I remember right he is part of the mafia or he runs an illegal ring of some sort. Anyways the girl in the coffee shop somehow finds out about kings infant son and she moves in with king to take care of his son. And the girl and king slowly fall in love.
Name: ????
Author: ???
Plot: Honestly I don't know. I read the book maybe 3/4 years ago and I lost it. It's a mystery book. I remember a little girl crying because her mom died. Also, the majority of the people are rich and live in mansions. Pretty sure it's about lawyers and detectives trying to solve a murder case, and there's the main rivalry between two men. The book cover has a night dark blue sky with trees all around, and stars. I think the author is a man. The book cover is similar to Where The Forest Meets the Stars. Like super similar, but not exactly it. Pretty sure the title has the letter M in it either the title or author's name. Please help, I've been searching for days and hours.
Ok, so i also remember a woman was found dead in her mansion, and her husband was a murder suspect. I also remember the main character I think, talking to the dead woman's child, and having one of his lawyer friends take her in. There's also a huge trial that happens between the two lawyer rivals. Please I really need help.

I Read This Book 6 or 7 Years Ago, One of My favorites, can't find it anywhere.
I thought it was written by the Author "Zane", But I looked it up, wasn't written by her, sadly.
Please Help.
I read this YA book in the late 70s, but my guess is that it was actually published sometime between the 30s-50s. Kind of funny/satirical, along the lines of Sally Benson (Junior Miss, Meet me in St. Louis) or Booth Tarkington (Seventeen, Alice Adams). I think it took place in the early 1900s and was centered around a large family. The scene I remember is that one of the older girls wore a white dress to a party and spilled tea on it, and there was concern that it was ruined and not able to be passed down to the younger girls. One of the siblings had the idea to dye it, so they brewed up a giant vat of tea and dyed it. I don’t remember the color of the cover (maybe yellow?), but I think the picture was of a tug-o-war game.

I am looking for a book about an abused woman. She carefully plans how to escape from the husband for herself and child while he is at work. Her plans take too long and it is usually almost time for him to get home. One day she and the child hide under the front porch. He finds them. She finally makes it away. Think I read the book in the 90s. Have not been able to forget it.
In this book the main character is a girl and she has an older sister. I don’t really remember the cover of the book but it’s big. In a part of the book she finds out her sister has been sleeping with the boy who works for their parents I believe. His name starts with a B if I remember correctly, and she says she remembers seeing this spot on her sisters leg as if the color has been sucked out of it. There’s also a part where she stares at her body naked wondering if she has a good body. Then she starts sleeping with the boy who works for them and I think they described him as big and masculine. The book is very detailed so it explains everything that is happening during the times they’re sleeping together. But it doesn’t describe her sister sleeping with him only the main character.
In this book the main girl is working in Starbucks or some coffee shop & is a graphic designer. She also has a baby from her dead husband. She is hired as a graphic designer in a MC's company by MC's brother.

The cover of the book has a japanese school staircase on the left with the stairs going up but you can see the lower floor stairs as well in the back. I think there was a window on the right but within the spiral staircase area. I remember there being a red tint for the title. The title was in blood red kanji I think but underneath was a subtext of white. A quote within the book I think. Something about time... I remember going to the library to find Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun but the manga was onky available in German. And then I searched something up when I got home and I found this book. Something about it being an original novel or something. I didn't read it tho so I have no clue about the plot.

A book about a son who killed his father, who was a part of a neo nazi group. The covor has a picture of a combat boot with red laces dripping blood
Hi. I read this book years ago. I don't remember the title or author but I remember some of the plot, if anyone can help i would greatly appreciate it. What I remember... It was a historical romance. Somewhere in the country, and there was this estate, I don't remember why the girl was sent there but she was there and unhappy about it. There was a man that lived on the estate, in a secluded mysterious part of the building. Possibly the lord of the estate, anyway he had traveled most of his life and was back and living in his tower, he had a servant/friend from a distant land and he had many books and different things from different places he also drew cartoon characters. Anyway the girl stumbled upon him somehow and a friendship of soughts began which later lead to a much deeper intimacy. I think he know who she was but she didn't know who he was and she slowly started falling in love with him. I remember two parts distinctly, one where this man introduced her to yoghurt and she was fascinated and another where they had a fight about one of his or her drawings. That's all I remember. I have been searching for this book for two years, if anyone remembers reading something along these lines please help. Thank you

Looking for a children's book with some type of animal creature that had a special stone
There are two I'm looking for...
1. A science fiction / fantasy I think, book about a teen girl living in a dystopian future. I know she escapes her community because it is dangerous with the help of a female best friend and a male love interest. I believe the love interest was a guard or something who didn't want to go along with the MC at first. and I know there was a treehouse involved somehow..? They escape and make it to the edge of the forest that surrounds their community but I don't remember the ending. Also this is random but if it helps there were a few made up words in it, I'm pretty sure one was similar to fortnight.
2. A YA with a female protagonist; she is very responsible and plain so her best friend decides to make her more exciting by setting her a challenge for every day of summer. On the first day, the challenge is to NOT make her bed and she has a difficult time with it.
hello, I'm looking for the title of a book about two childhood acquaintances who were both smart and argued a lot.

The book was not purely romance and I think the cover was pink? Not sure too, but I think the title had "you" in it. Thank you in advance!

Hi everyone,
So I really hope you can help as I have been racking my brains for the last few months about this. But when I was in secondary school (I live in the UK) we read a book, I think it was in year 9/10 and it was sort of like a read and evaluate the book kind of thing.
The plot was (from what I can remember) - it was about a young boy who had been placed into foster care because he liked starting fires, he was also an orphan but I can't remember how his parents died. As a result of their deaths he moved from house to house through the Foster care system. Until he ended up at the house in which the book takes place, by being at this house he seems to change and start becoming a better person. But then something happens which triggers him to start another fire in his house, I believe, and then he forgets about it and walked off, and when he came back I think he ran into the house and got everyone out. But the police were called and he got arrested and taken away in a police car.
That's really all I can remember from the plot, I might have some of it wrong, but any help in figuring it out would be very much appreciated, as like I say it has been driving me mad ♀️.
Thank you in advance to anyone who is able to help.

I was read a book by a teacher during reading time or something and I don't remember much about it. Basically what I think I remember is that if was called book of something but i'm not sure about that and I think it was related to the color green. The cover was three kids, one older girl, two younger boys i think, and they were going under a waterfall or something. In the beginning, I think it starts with the kids in a hotel, and they somehow get to this magical forest, and then they are somehow at a mansion and they are trying to escape this evil princess person and at the end, the older girl is worrying that the princess is coming but the butler tells her that she is far and that they can party. I think its a trilogy and I cannot find it. If anyone knows this, please help.
Oh, I found it, I'm so excited. Its called the book of beginnings, the emerald atlas, definitely recommend it.
I read this book about 5 years ago it was a story book about two female twins who where In I supposed say middle school or high school and they both loved soccer, I don’t remember much but if I remembers they lived with their family in a windmill like house and one of the twins bites her nails, it was a book series but this was one of the books about them and not all the books in the series are about the twins but are about I think soccer and other girls stories on their team. The cover is a green and the two twins are on the cover in a green jersey and their arms are in the flying position, by the looks of the cover it seems as if it was in a manga style. The book was about the girls finding their true selfs on the soccer field. I know this isn’t the most accurate explanation, but I remembered really liking this book and I want to read it again.
Looking for a novel about a lost tribe somewhere in South America and a love affair with a mysterious woman and a dome
Honestly, my memory is horrible when I need it the most.
The book I can’t remember the title or authors name of, is a FBI thriller. A high school girl with bright blonde hair, a cheerleader (I think) who is dating her football player boyfriend whose rich cause of his father. There was a banquet or small ball I think and the girl, I think her name is Jules or Julie, and she’s goes to the backyard or some kind of Terrace and witness the murder of the mayor. The killer spots her and Jules or Julie skips her small town to the big city without telling anyone, but returns seven years later to face her demons after her car explodes. Her high school boyfriend is now a FBI Agent and immediately knows who she is at the airport when she hitches her bag over her shoulder and pulls her sunglasses to the top of her head. The book cover is navy blue with Jules or Julie dark figure running forward with a light shinning behind her. The words are bright pink, I think, they are either two letter words or one word and I think the authors name is the same colour but it is smaller than the title. Please find this book I’ve been dying to read it ever since the last time I read it at the library years ago.
I just wish my memory wasn't so trash lol.
But the book I can't remember is about a young man that is colorblind, he's on a quest to find the killer of his best friend (male friend). I know that his best friend was involved in some questionable activities, also his friends body was spread over the city dumpsters, once closer to solving his friends murder he was being followed . That's all I remember 🙁

I'm looking for a children's fiction book I read a couple of years ago to recommend to someone. (And now I kinda wanna re-read it lol.) It was written for maybe 3rd - 6th graders, and I can't remember the title or author, but I do remember vague parts of the plot. I might be wrong about some of this, so please tell me if you find anything similar! The main character was kidnapped for her violet eyes, because the kidnapper, who I think was an old woman, was trying to make cast some sort of spell or make some sort of potion that needed the hair of a 14 year old girl with violet eyes to stay young. I think the cover had a picture of the girl on it on the bottom right, in an almost anime style, not super realistic but not cartoon-y either. Also, I think there were whole chapters dedicated to the mother of the main character, fending for herself for some reason. I think the old lady who kidnapped the mc also kidnapped her too for some reason? But then she got out somehow and there were chapters about her trying to earn money by playing an instrument, the harp, I think.

During a scene that I remember, the baby dragon's all peeped from their eggs and they were all different colors with different personalities. The mother was present, I BELIEVE?, and then she had flown off for something and never came back?
That's when the book started with the green baby dragon looking for it's family? Can't remember if the sibling's went along or not?
Another scene I remember: The dragon was in this underground tunnel being led through it fighting off enemies with other mystical creatures because it was looking for it's siblings or mother?

I'm looking for an encyclopedia about nature, not sure when it was published however it was published at least 24 years ago back in mid 90's or earlier. The book has 2 seperate sections, the first section being of animals, how animals evolved like how horses went from about 3/4 toes to what we know now as them only having 1 toe. I learnt that emporer penguins grow up to 4ft in height, I remember there being a picture of a cross section of mud/dirt and you was told about the insects that was in and on top of the soil, it was a photograph and it showed you a picture of a slug, snail, worm, woodlouse, I think a spider and other small insects in and on top of the soil, the 2nd half of the book is about plants, trees, bushes, it also mentioned in the book that there are still plenty of plants and animals to discovered.
I had this book from as early as being 4 and had this book for about 10-12 years until my sisters destroyed my copy and I can't remember the title however I would love to find a copy of this book, would love to get someone else's help in discovering what the title of the book is and possibly who wrote it.
Thank you.
I'd like to know name of a children's book that I read as a child in mid to late 50s. It was about a puppy that loved to curl up in chairs, go under kitchen table, sit on lap of his little girl who owned him - but then he grew bigger and bigger. Eventually he was too big to do all those things, but he still tried so hard to keep doing them. The illustrations showed this adorable dog squeezing himself into and onto things he was way too big for. I often thought that Clifford the Big Red Dog was a take-off of that book.
historical romance- i think it was by betina krahn- girl marries whom she thinks is a fop but is actually a very handsome smuggler helps with his ruse...
That sounds like The Raider by Jude Deveraux.

Well I don’t know what was going on in that book because there’s a whole series but all I know is that the girl on the cover has a group of friends and a baby brother, I also remember that one of the friends where African American. Also just to remind you, this book is for 11-13 year old girls:)!
Hello! I've been looking for a book for a couple of months, but haven't been able to find anything on Google or Goodreads. I read this book in 2017, and it is YA fiction. A girl's father believes that the apocalypse will occur in 2012, and sells the family's belongings and buys an RV for them to live in. When the apocalypse does not happen, they are still living in the RV in a big city, either San Francisco, Los Angeles, or New York. I also remember that the girl has a brother who gets stabbed or beat up by someone near the end of the book. There might be an RV on the cover, but I'm not sure. Let me know if you can help!

I'm looking for this book about this girl that has been saving up money to hire a detective to find her biological father or mother I can't really remember. She has like a small treasure chess that has a photo of the person she's looking for and she had a box where she hides the money she saves up. Her friend helps her get money by sleeping with the guys at school that pay her to do it. Then there's this part I remember where she meets the detective she's been saving up money to hire at this diner and when he gets there and they talk for a while he tells her that that's not enough money for his service. Then he decides to help her but by putting another detective on the case and I'm not sure but from what I remember she and the detective put on the case had like a romance going on and she was a 18 year old senior. I read this book like a year ago and from what I remember I think the book cover was blue but I don't remember the picture that was in the cover tho.
Hi, I'm looking for a book that I read a few years ago. I believe it was about a girl who is helping her dad out at his shop. It's not a normal shop though. It was a Christmas tree shop. One day, I believe a boy came in. The main girl saw him and they fell in love. The boy started helping her dad with all of the tree work.
That's basically all I can remember, sorry if it's not enough. Thank you all anyways!
Ok so looking for a book ive read twice! ♀️
I have posted before but no luck, but thought id give it another shot incase it jogs memories members may be able to help....
So girl arrives back to her home town ( its a seasonal small town i think) to help her parents out working in their cafe, by becoming a waitress in the family business. I rememeber she does the early shift and cooks fry ups really well
Her sister also lives in the town (very small community) with children (2 girls) and hubby.
Anyways the main girl in the story left years ago when she was 16 ish as her boyfriend died in a car accident, whilst she was in the car also, the night they were planning on running away to get married as she was pregnant but couldnt tell anyone.
I think the boyfriend was really clever and possibly a scholarship was heading his way....
Fast forward years later to the point she returns to help her parents.
The deceased boyfriends parents and most of the town hate her and call her a killer, blamming her for the accident. However. I do remember it wasnt her fault, he had actually been drinking or had taken drugs. He was a well known popular boy, brains, scholarship for college coming his way etc and she never set them straight as didnt want to tarnish his memory or their thoughts about him...
The girls now has a snob boyfriend, who comes to see when she is coming home and he makes it clear doesnt like the community as he is a snob and he feels they are benath him type thing. But the girl is starting to enjoy being back there where she grew up.
I remember she gets close to a guy who works in a garage (possibly with male cousins and uncle) and helps him babysit his sisters kids and go to the beach, with her sisters kids?
Towards end of the book something kicks off at a bbq or a wedding, hippiestylee, bare feet and the boyfriend and some of his snob friends laugh as she is now wearing summery girly clothes, rather than snob clothes?
Possibly set in Ireland? But not sure!
Such a lovely easy read and im gutted I cant find the dam book
Ive looked on my good reads, purchased list , kindle unlimited etc but nothing.
Again ive read it twice (last time was years ago) and remember i was really happy to be reading it again.
I dont want to say the ending incase people want to read it but theres a big twist to it all.....
Thanks everyone!

I read a novel about eight years ago that talks about 3 protagonist who had to make major decision about what course to study in the university. One was known to have artistic talents right from when he was a child, he was also very intelligent and his parents believed studying any other thing apart from medicine was a waste of his intelligence. He eventually studied medicine but lost interest in medicine while he was in his final year as a medical student at the university of Lagos, he was eventually banned from practicing medicine for fifteen years after someone died due to his lackadaisical attitude. The second protagonist choosed chemistry even though he could have gotten admission to study medicine if he hadn't decide that he couldn't risk not gaining admission that year, a decision he lived to regret everyday eventually. The third protagonist had plans to study law, until his father decreed that he must study pharmacy even though he was not good in science subjects nor interested in them, his father's decision was based on the fact that he wanted his son to study pharmacy, being his only son, in order to take over his lines of pharmaceutical companies, the boy eventually committed suicide after his father disowned him for failing jamb again.

Eventually the mom suggested she should go to a conversion therapy camp over the summer. The girl felt that this was the only way to make things go back to how they were before so she agreed. The camp was strange and they basically did a bunch of exercises that focused on gender norms and homophobia. The girl started to like another girl at the camp but she tried not to focus on it at first because she genuinely wanted this to work.

I'm looking for a book from my childhood the cover was black and I swear it had a little white dog in the middle of the cover, there was a poem at the start "there was a boy upon the stairs a little boy who wasn't there, he wasn't there again today, I wish he'd go away than stay...

I am looking for a book I read about 20 years ago about an oil man and his company. The book begins with a murder of a husband and wife in the middle east. Big oil companies are trying to run this small oil company out of business. His friend is patterned off of Howard Hughes and his other friend is the company Lawyer. He has a daughter. I thought the title of the book was OIl but it is not by Upton Sinclair so I don't know.
The book I am looking for was purchased as a mass market paperback from K-Mart in the 70's. The main characters are two college friends, one from the USA and one who has an uncle in Scotland who is researching time travel. It takes place in the future because they have autos that drive themselves. They visit this uncle and help with his research. At this time, in Scotland, a reactor with a new form of energy is about to open. After it does, tiny black holes begin to show up and as time goes on, they become larger. Meanwhile, the uncle is having small success with sending messages back in time. As the black holes become a problem for the world, a message is sent back to before the unit is brought online with what will happen and they have to try to convince everyone that they shouldn't let it start. Can't remember how they do it but of course they are successful. There is also a romance between the USA student and a female member of the staff at the facility involved. I am reasonably sure the word Time is in the title. I have searched all the permutations of that word but none of the books I have found is correct. Any ideas anyone?
Found the book, its title is Thrice Upon a Time and the author is James P Hogan. Thank you all and good luck finding your books!!
There was this book I read in middle school about a girl and a boy who grew up on an island. The girl has a family and they eventually find her and take her away. Turns out that the mother ran away with her daughter and this guy with his sun and they raised there kids on this island. I think the boys name was lake or something like that and spoiler the boy gets stabbed in the end. Please help me find it, thank you.
It will be amazing if you can help me find a book that I don't remember the title or author of. Years ago, my mother loaned this book to her coworker and they never returned it.
I remember the story involved a boy who lived in an apartment building and his neighbor or mother was a woman that drank alcohol out of a trumpet and was always throwing loud parties. There was another illustration that shows the boy sitting on a woman's tongue with a saw. It was either a babysitter or his grandmother. I guess the babysitter would not stop talking or nagging the boy. Do any of these descriptions remind you of a book with illustrations?
Thanks for your help!

They try to avoid him, and tell their kids to do the same. One day the main character sees a man at the market who does something mean, I can't remember what. Anyways she tells him off and then sees her dads reaction. She realized that was the man they owed money. He makes her his servant, and she learns to read and makes friends with the other maids. He lives in a mansion so she never really sees him and eventually she hates it less and less. She is assigned to his wife who is actually really nice. Please help me!!

HI! so I'm looking for a book, I read it quite a while ago but I remember it. It's about a young boy ( i don't remember his name ) and an older brother ( i don't remember his name either) and their parents split up. and the younger brother really liked swimming and music, while his older brother liked sports and video games/stuff like that. and the younger brother really wanted the older brother to like him, but the older brother hated him. And just to mess with the younger brother the older brother made the younger brother do a bunch of stuff like steal perfume for him to give to his girlfriend and to steal a girls bra and then took a picture of the younger brother with the bra and post it online to make him look bad. but then one day the younger brother and older brother were hanging out and the older brother thought it would be funny to jump across a river to impress his brother, but he fell in and nearly drowned. But the younger brother is really good at swimming so he saved the older brother but he was in a coma, but the younger brother visited him every day in the hospital and he read to the older brother a lot and they became best friends. It's funny how I can remember all of that but I don't know the name of the book or the author 🙁 if anyone knows this story please tell me it is such a great book and I'm only saying the tip of the iceberg of this story it is amazing! I do recommend it ( if I actually knew what it was called ) also it's a teenagers book like an age rating for a 13-16 or something like that. Thanks if anyone knows this book and if you do please tell me it would be much appreciated!

Hi, I’m Indhu, age twelve. A couple of years ago I read a history- fiction novel about three kids - one girl, a cousin boy, and his friend - who make a movie. It’s set in the first few years of Hollywood, I think. They buy their own camera film and edit the movie in his friends lab, and I think the friends’s name was Bubby or something. I remember that the cover was something of a white cover with a girl running. Could you please help me find the book? It’s 10-12 age line. I think I checked this out in the Thayer Public Library. Thanks.
I'm looking for 2 books. 1st was one that funny enough I heard being talked about on Walmart radio. It's about a woman who wants to die but decides she's going to wait until her grandmother (who has cancer) dies. She makes acquaintances with a man who is curious about committing murder, and he agrees to kill her after her grandmother's passing.
The 2nd book is a fantasy story, and unfortunately, I have far less details about it. I remember my friend reading it years ago when I was in high school. It had a character who beheaded a man and then presented it to the man's girlfriend/wife while on a ship. I remember distinctly there was a beheading, a ship, and that it was a guy showing it to a loved one. It could've possibly been a woman who was beheaded instead. I also remember it was definitely a fantasy book.
It's been killing me not knowing either titles, and I have been trying for over 2 years to find them. Any help is appreciated.

A very unique looking book; its very small and was completely red i'm pretty sure with heart in the title but it was about two girl best friends and one of them died in a car crash I think.

Anyone recognize it?
I’m looking for the title of a book I think I read in the 1990’s. It was a romance. An American woman went to China on business and met a wealthy Chinese businessman and they fell in love.

She extended her visit to China somewhat but finally determined it wasn’t meant be—he wouldn’t be fulfilled in American and she and her children would not be in China

I read a book but I am not sure what year the book was written in. It is a murder mystery book. The plot of the book goes like this. A detective wife just loses her husband and he was murder. They both have a three year old daughter. The husband's family is rich and very secretive one. The wife tries to find out who killed her husband and why but he husband's family suspects her. She finds clues after clues which leads to her sister's death and she was also murdered not long ago. In the end all these searching and suspecting was a part of a big a show and the wife was the one who killed her husband because her husband killed her sister.
This what I remember from the book. It would be a great help if someone could tell me the title. Thanks

The man finds her friend, who by the way is a war hero, and assaults her and her mother trying to find out where is wife is. Although the friend didn't disclose anything he has put a few things together and believes she is on Aldernay. The police are now realising that this man is a liar, a controller and a potential murdered so they are trying to find him before he finds his wife.

I read a Book about a young girl who's past in high school she is trying to forget.. She moved on to nake a better life for herself but something comes up that makes her have to go back to her childhood home and go through things in the attic and face her past..
She tells about how she wasn't proud of how she had slept with everyone on the football team and one night at a Lookout she "accidentally" hit the guy who was trying to sleep with her and she killed him. Never telling anyone. He fell off the cliff eventually. She gets away with it I believe..
I've been Googling the bits and pieces that I remember about this book for years with no luck... In the late 90's I read a book about a young girl (maybe even a boy, can barely remember) who moves to a new home in what seemed like a rural area and befriends a girl who I always remembered as Cora, but I might be wrong... Cora's appearance was described very vividly as being very thin, almost looking malnourished, very pale and black hair. She was very poor and lived in a dilapidated home with a parent/s who didn't take care of her. She was almost described as depressed and I think the book ended with her dying/disappearing. This book could be from the 80's/90's and I think it had this 'Cora' character on the cover... Might be a teen/young adult book but it had a very dark and sad theme to it. I can't get it out of my mind and would love to find this childhood book. Help!
also regarding the cover, this book was an oldie from the days when books didn't have paper covers. I'm pretty sure the artwork was printed right on the hard cover and it might have been purple... brain muddled and memory might be a bit tainted after all the google searches!
I read a book in 6th grade about this girl who lives in India. There is a wealthy man who controls everyone with his resources. Her family is in debt to this man, as is everyone else. They try to avoid him, and tell their kids to do the same. One day the main character sees a man at the market who does something mean, I can't remember what. Anyways she tells him off and then sees her dads reaction. She realized that was the man they owed money. He makes her his servant, and she learns to read and makes friends with the other maids. He lives in a mansion so she never really sees him and eventually she hates it less and less. She is assigned to his wife who is actually really nice. Please help me!! I also know for sure that the cover has her hands like together and they have henna on them.
There is a book i read when I was younger. It was about a rich white girl who moved to colonial Jamaica and meets her half sister and they ran away after the white sister shot a guy who tried to rape the black sister. The black sister's mother tells them to escape and she fed the body to crocodiles or something like that. The white sister also had some ruby earrings that had obeah that cause her fiance to be able to follow her and he tries to kill her for her inheritance (I think) and they end up becoming pirates. The black sister becomes a captain and marries her 1st mate after the fiance is killed (she is pregnant and the fiance tied her to the Hull of the ship to stop white sister and black sister's husband from attacking his ship. Someone behead him.) And white sister goes back and claims her inheritance and they each take 1 of the rubies cause fiance guy is dead. And they promise to meet when black girls kid is born.

there was a book i read when i was younger, maybe in middle-high school, so it was a chapter book, but something a young kid could read. it was a book about girl in france, (it might've taken place in the past). i think she was an orphan, and she was taken in by a man, but i don't remember whether or not it was through an agency. she loved hanging out on the rooftop of this guy's apartment building. i think there was a specific part in the book where there was some kind of inspector coming to this guy's house, but they didn't do so good because this guy's house was either so messy or it didn't have enough in it to be able to house 2 people.

I am looking for a book that Abraham Lincoln read during his presidency that persuaded him to sign the Emancipation of Proclamation. The book was written by an American that was a captain of a crew member on a ship that was captured in Africa and walked through the desert with his crew and then convinced a man to purchase them and made it back to I think Morocco where a missionary paid for there lives. He later came back to America and wrote about his capture.

i read this book in 6th grade and i’ve just now been thinking about it a lot. it’s about a young girl maybe 15 and she died in a car accident, so now she’s in a “heaven” type of place wear she can visit places in history. the one book i really remember is that she goes to the colosseum in rome, italy. there is a fighting match and she tries to save a guy she has feelings for. it is a fantasy/romance novel.
A fantasy novel from the 40's, I believe, about a group of people who wake up on an island with no idea of why they're there or how they got there. They go to the huge house on the island, and each person is shown, one by one, where they took a wrong turn in life and suffered for it. I thought it was called Strange Ports of Call, but apparently that is not correct. I read this as a teen in the 60's.
I just found it on alibris - it's called First Port of Call. Thanks anyway.
In the late 60's, early 70's, while attending an English Literature class at Ohio University, in Zanesville, Ohio, our class was invited to read and assess a book of which I have forgotten the title. I cannot recall the author. As I recall, the theme was around the idea that, in his life's experience, white people in association with black people do not look at black people's eyes. White people tend to look at blacks "other than" directly through their eyes. I'm afraid those are my key memories from that experience. (I must admit, prior to this research, I looked thoroughly among our library; I believe I kept my copy over several years. But, I'm afraid it's now missing!!! Wishing you the best of luck, and, in addition, THANKS for your offer and help!!! Best, Mike McNeely
Sorry, I just finished the request, above, and realized on review, I didn't have an opportunity to identify myself and include a means to communicate back to me.

Hi,
This is a long shot but I was looking for the title to a romance novel.
The plot was the main character - a girl moved back home after she found out her sister and her fiancée were having an affair. She fell for her married neighbor who was in a bad marriage but he and his wife (who was actually cheating on the husband) were killed in an automobile accident before he could leave his wife for her. The dead wife’s brother came to the funeral and the girl (the main character) and he ended up falling in love. Whew that is a crazy plot but I cannot remember the name of the book. Thank you!
I read these series years ago. Each series is somehow related to the other. I only remember one of the series a character falls in love with one of his employees after being friends with her and her sister for some time. He has twin sisters and a cousin that he is very close with. They each have their own book. Main character and twin sister were abused by their parents, and the cousin was also a victim of abuse. The parents were involved in some underground orgy where a character (rockstar) is introduced leading to another series. That series he falls for a photographer after seeing her in a picture. Later on finds out he has seen her before years ago when she was younger. His band mates named her Priscilla.

He was a school teacher who had gone to work in the mines out west. She has lots of adventures along the way. A Pinkerton agent is sent by her guardians to bring her back home. In the end she is reunited with her father.

There was a book in the library of my grammar school in the 70s. It was a hardcover yellow book with red metallic ink, and it was some kind of science fiction novel. Any ideas? Thanks.
There was a sci-fi/fantasy novel or collection of short stories written by a British male. The cover was a pair of wide-open eyes surrounded by red rose petals. This was a mass market paperback. The word summer may have been in the title. The main story is about a man who watches a primitive tribe from a hiding place. He thinks he is unobserved, but it turns out they are aware of his presence.
I can’t remember the title or author but it’s a story about two animals called plip and plop (I think) that go on a adventure to see why the water supply had been blocked . They find out at the end that it’s a monster that is upset and finally persuade it to move . It’s a kid book from around 2000 to 2008
If anyone could find it i would be soooo grateful. Pleaseeee helppppp.
A book I loved in elementary school in the 90s. Its a wordless picture book with no story. The book is unique in the way you can interact with it. All the pages are cut in half horizontally and you can flip the pages to make a new picture. The book was odd, one combo I remember vividly making is men with suits and ties and umbrellas for heads. You can make a bunch of different pictures depending on the combo you choose. The illustrations were strange but very well done. I think there were tea cups and mushrooms as well as trees. Please if you cant find this book can anyone tell me the name of this style of book. I cannot find any book that is even close to how these pages turn. It was purposely cut in half and the book I think was rectangular and on the big side.
Graham Oakley's magical changes.
Sorry I don't think this style has an official term. The description of the book is, "Perfectly normal paintings in rich colors appear on pages split horizontally so that the images become quite different when tops or bottoms are turned, distorting things into comic or fearful surrealism."

And she passes out cause she walked to far and hasn’t eaten and then she proves that she is this lady’s granddaughter somehow so she starts living with her at her farm or something??? I can’t remember much after this. Please help!!!

Looking for a book can't remeber the title or name other the author. It starts out in a museum. Where the main character is cleaning the museum. The museum used to be a home of a prominent man. The home back in the 1800s was washed away in a flood. The man and his daughter were never found. But she some how was sent to the past before the flood happened. And events begin to unraveal. The ending of the book finds the man and his daughter in the present day with the woman that was sent to the past.
Looking for a romance book set series that started with the letters of the alphabet. They were based in the same small town. The series were written by different authors. Either in the 1990s to 2000s is when these were published. Possibly Harlequin/Silhouette romance books. 26 books in the series. It was different characters in the books but somehow they were all connected due to that they all lived in the small town & they were neighbors, relatives, etc. (which I can't remember the name of the town or state but it was a U.S. state).
Grrrr mine is about this girl who’s involved with The Circle or sumn and like she was robbing from somewhere and jumped out of the window to escape from all the people. The headlines were all abt her and she thought it was weird bc their class is seeing the news that’s her but with a different wig. Then she has a date with Luke or whatever his name is but they got a call and they have to rescue someone.
It’s a black book with either a scarecrow or witch on it and has something to do with a garden. It’s full of stories similar to mother goose or brothers grimm.
I also had a small red book of Christmas stories/poems. It’s thick and with heavy glossy pages.
I read a book in 1993, a self help type. Out lining four separate family types and how functional/dysfunctional each member was and interacted. I remember that the cover had four houses on it, lined up in a square. And how to manifest a more functional situation, for your family. I bought it at the Tattered Cover in Denver, early that year.

I need to find a book about this young woman who runs away from home, and she falls asleep on this gravestone, then she wakes up and she finds out that she has gone back in time to go on an adventure with this super, super large lady and this extremely thin old man, and she’s gone back in a time where for toothpaste women would use salt and that short hair would mean that you would be mistaken for a boy.

And then, the witch tells her not to go in this closet.... the witch doesn't eat her.... the witch dies.... then comes back alive.... and I guess I could say they live happily ever after!
Hi! OMG!! I'm really sorry for putting 3 comments, but I just found the title!!! I googled it, and I gave the same description of the one down below. It's called " The War That Saved My LIfe" You should definitely check it out!
Sorry! It's me again! I'm going to leave a description of the book, to see if any of you have read it. It's about a girl who's foot is crippled, and her mother is mean and poor. When she hears that there's going to be a bombing in London, she makes a plan to escape with her little brother. When she does, she finds another woman. I forget her name. AAAAH! Anyway, she takes care of them, and stuff for a year. And... yeah that's pretty much it! IF you know the name of the book, PLEASE tell me! Thanks!
Hi! I know your book! I read it about a year ago! I think it is The War That Saved My Life. Am I correct?

Looking for a YA dystopian book about two young women on a journey that meet up with a young man. One girl gets left behind and the other goes to a cave with the boy where he lives with many other young men. Soldiers come looking for this girl. She and the boy set out to a safe place they have been told about. It ends up only being a home for girls and it is by water. I cannot recall the title or author. Does this sound familiar to anyone?
Looking for a trilogy about a woman that studies killers and sees ghosts. One man comes to her to prove his innocence. He was put to death. She helps police solve murders. I remember author is well known
That sounds a bit like Charmaine Harris. She writes about a medium who solves police cases.

Looking for book I read in the 80s. It was to help housewives enjoy their everyday
Chores. It was a book of thanks. Goddess wax in the title. I think it might have been a daily book. Remember it was heavy.
I'm looking for a book series I read in high school, I think it might either be 2 books or maybe three. its about a warrior princess her family is big on battles their kingdom is cold. At some point in the first book the king dies and she becomes queen and shes having a hard time with it i think. she has a sorcerer for an adviser who is a guy and they do end up getting married, and its ether before or after that the the guy gets barbecued by either lightning or a spell gone wrong, the queen thinks he is dead or close. all his hair is burned off and his whole body is covered in bad burns. he pulls through and is messed up for a while. I know the last book they are parents to a few kids. one or two take after the dad with magic and are being trained to use it they all get train for battle like their mother, I think one of their girls or maybe the boy doesn't like fighting. the books were in my high school library and it was all pg 13 except for some fighting and the guys wounds, and i know its more fantasy than romance.
looking for a book I read as a teen in early 80s about a young girl who lives with her mother and younger sister. They live near a river and make friends with a single man with 2 young children a boy and girl. The teen child sits for her neighbor and as time goes on she grows up and they eventually get married. I think it was call something like By the river.
Trying to find a book. It had Ghost or Spirits or both of those in the title. It was a period novel. I believe took place in the 1800s in England. Setting was a school or University. There was a missing possibly murdered person. One of the characters (male) worked at the school, I believe. He had come from a poor background. There was a woman who was married to the head of the school. He ended up dying in the end. At one point in the book the woman was out walking by herself out of her home area, and made a comment that she had felt freer than she had ever felt. The book wasn't really about ghosts, but at the end of the book there was a suggestion of a wisp that was supposed to be murdered person. There was also the suggestion that the wife of the school head and the man with poor background were attracted to one another. Does anyone have any idea of the title or author?
Mine I’m looking for was a British romance between an older couple. The cover had red Rain boots( goloushes) on a porch. In the 1990- 2000s
the book was on Facebook. I started reading it and then closed the link without knowing the name of the book. What I remember was Brandon was the boss and his assistant made she he was home safe after a night of drinking. Brandon is lonely because his wife Darcy left him. His assistant is being a good friend but Darcy is jealous of her.
One thing I remember that they write letters every to one another. It is set in wine country in Italy. Their parents do not like each other. It is somewhat a comedy between the family.families parents are the girls parents. I saw it on TV.
I have a book that I recently saw in POPULAR bookstore but it sold out and the only thing I remember about it is it has a peach-coloured cover with tiny black identical flowers everywhere, if you see anything like that please tell me. Thank you.
Love story was posted on

Book about a kid who discovers that the author of a favorite children's series is causing people to hallucinate. Main character discovers that the author of these books is doing it on purpose. At one point the main character (I think it's a girl) breaks into the house of the author.
The book is similar to R.L. Stein's goosebumps books.
I think it was written between 2008-2012
It's possible that I've combined the memories of several different books and that this one doesn't even exist but if it does I'd like to find it.
The cover has the main character and either a sibling or friend (I'm not sure which) standing on the porch of a big mansion. The title is in big Halloween-y font on top with the author name of the bottom, I think the author's name starts with a D.

I can't remember the author of a series of murder mysteries. The main character is a women reporter for a tv station, whose husband was murdered. She investigates or reinacts the time the murder took place and interviews those involved, with a cohost named Alex, who is a lawyer and eventually becomes her husband.

Read this young adult fiction book at least 30hrs ago! I think El was in the title - but about a teen boy living in America wifh Mexican heritage - finds out his dad is having an affair with a lady in town & debates whether he should tell his pregnant mother about it. They raised chickens & one point a head is cut off but the chicken was still running around headless! I believe there was an older sister that didn't live at home anymore - a teen coming of age story - living in a row of 'shacks' homes without luxuries at home like flooring - it was a dirt floor in the home - after getting my 12yo daughter to love The Outsiders (she read it in 4 days & we watched the movie tonight) I was hoping she would like this book also! There is talk of sex & i think the boy shared a bonding moment with dad & his 1st beer- boy would have been 14/15yo & dad was bribing him not to tell mom! I have searched the web & without the author its has been difficult to find! I remember the cover on the paperback was tan with his image on the front, i cant remember the boys name but remember reading it a dozen times as a 13/14yo as it was one of the 1st books I was exposed to that had sexual topics & cursing in it (small town girl from KC & I wasn't exposed to much real life stuff then!) I would love to read it again but no longer have a copy packed up with my childhood bedroom after I was married at 18 (celebrating our 25th anniversary next month!) So those boxes are buried deep in our garage & i don't think i kept those books or if I donated them when i moved from my parents house on my wedding night! Oh I remember like 95% was in English with a bit of Spanish like when he spoke to his mother.
The biggest thing for me as the 12yo reader - I didnt know what masterbation meant - so I asked my mom, she told me to go ask my dad & his answer was to look it up in the dictionary! The definition was to masterbate but the definition of masterbate didn't make sense to me as the innocent 12yo in 1988/1989!
Any help or additional clues would be wonderful! It really was a great coming of age book, I must have read it 7-8x! Thank you!
Hello, I have a paragraph from a book and page number but don’t know which boom it comes from. How can I find out please.

She had run away from home and regretted falling out with her parents. She had started to give birth, she was in agony ther was someone watching her as she begged for help but they didn’t. She gave birth to a little girl. The person who was there gloved up and cut the umbilical cord. Took the baby and stabbed the girl in the back of the head.

Romance i think. It was an e book i was reading and lost the link. She ( her name was like Jayden) was just made partner of her law firm. She called her best friend and told her about her promotion her friend told her she should go out and celebrate and make sure that she got laid. .
She tried to call her boyfriend who they called her Partner. Could not get ahold of him. Ordered food, picked up food and went to his apartment. She found him and he broke up with her at the door as his new girl was in the apartment with him. He said She had no time for him and he wanted to start s family. Work always came first. He closed the door in her face. She was going to knock again however just left the food and wine at the door and left.
She went to a popular expensive bar and ordered the strongest drinks. A Man came into the bar who was supposed to meet a friend but he cancelled st the last minute. Saw the girl at the bar and told the waiter to invite the lady over to his table. When the waiter returned he said the lady said no. The man said did you tell her who I am and he said that he told her his name but she didn’t seem to be moved. He then went up to the lady at the bar and noticed that she had tears on her face. He acted as if he was genuinely concerned. When she turned to face him she realized he was very attractive against her better judgment she went with him he invited her back to his hotel where I do believe his family owns the chain of hotels and they went up to the top penthouse floor where they ended up spending the night together. The next morning he turned into a very mean man leaving money on the table for her and walking out the door. She ended up going into the washroom having a good cry got a shower got dressed. She then went and gave the money to the people at the front desk and told them to give the money back to the gentleman.
That’s where I left off in the book and now I have no idea what the title or the name is hopefully you can help me.

Her mom was sent to an asylum and she was left alone with her father who always worked.

I'm looking for a fantasy series by an author that I forgot the name of, here are the parts I can remember: so I think there are two children (I'm pretty sure that they are teenagers) venture out into a forbidden forest, the first teenager was babysitting their younger sibling, when suddenly the younger sibling (the younger sibling was a baby) was somehow taken into the forest, the teen rides into the forest with her bike without telling her parents, there was also a boy that she met before who was particularly her friend, but he followed her into the forest because I think he was concerned about her. After the boy walks into the forest he loses where the girl went, after some time though they bump into each other. I think after that they see a van going by in the forest, the person in the van I think has some kind of drink to deliver like wine in crates, or maybe the crates were empty, the driver offers to help them go to animal civilization, which is a very strange place for both the boy and the girl. A queen needs the baby for that the girl is looking for but I forgot the reason. The boy and girl go into war, also the boy even went into an animal jail once. That's all I remember.
I'm looking for a book a read a while ago. It was about a group of actors and actresses that were going to star in a tv show. One was an actor named Bill I believe and his wife was named sandy and she dies and he was being blamed for it. There was also an actress whose name I think was Kate and she had been secretly playing in a daytime soap for almost 20 years without her husband knowing. When she told him she wanted to act on this new show he got really angry and abusive. That's all I really remember
Trying to find a book I read a year or so ago. About a man who washes up ashore in this small town and is rescued by a single mom who has children and dogs. The book also switches between another plot related to the mans teenage years. There was a family of four with a son and daughter and a strange boy introduces himself and develops a crush on the daughter. He becomes very dangerous when he invites them to a party at his aunts house and tries to make a move on the daughter. There is also the plot of the wife (or fiancé maybe) of the man in the present time trying to track him down. He was supposed to take the train home but never came home because he instead washes up on the shore with the other lady. Please help me track down this book.
I believe there might be a character named Greyson, and the father and daughter of the family both die I believe in some body of water trying to fight off the suspicious boy who tried to make a move on the daughter.
Just started a preview of a book on my Kobo. Was enjoying it but somehow it disappeared! Here's what I remember: Male main character is telling his story in 1st person perspective. He's 25 or so. Story begins with him learning from his best friend that his "girlfriend" has a boyfriend and it's not him. Turns out this was one of those relationships that wasn't really a full-fledged gf/bf relationship. In fact, he has never had a real girlfriend. He's a scientific/numbers guy and so he decides that he needs to do a survey to find out why he is so unattractive to the ladies. He's going to ask around and come to a scientific conclusion. I was in stitches as I was reading. Then I fell asleep and woke up to find the preview of the book was gone. I think it's a recent book. I think the author is a man.

Smiling in her face adorably but annoyingly

book aboutslavery in deep south America possibly characters names topsy and sambo
The titles was something like Emmet and the ant or Emmets ant , the book cover was a pale olivey green from late '60s early 70s. I've been looking for it for quite a while and its never appeared. Maybe it went out of print or was written in America so as I am in England I cannot find it anywhere. I think the book cover had a smallish picture of a boy and an ant, quite a simple line drawing. I can't quite remember what it was about though... It was one of my favourite childhood books.
Emmets aunt farm?

Later it is found that he was kidnapped by his school teacher who was his mom's friend and kept in an underground closet in a thick forest.
Hey, I read this book last year, my teacher lent it to me and was quite intriguing, starts where a young man is plowing a field. His little sister comes toward him and says that cars are coming and I suppose they lived in the country if they were surprised by cars, and anyway this part gets fuzzy but they are somehow captured and brought to a very modernized city. (This is his mother, two little sisters, and him.) So the leaders of the city are supposedly trying to make a better civilization for the world but managing it horribly. They would surgically attach this white wristband, and if you thought bad thoughts like 'I wish so and so would leave me alone' then the wristband would give you a sharp, painful shock. And for this wristband, there were three pain levels, where one was very painful, two might make you blackout, and three would seriously injure or kill you. And if you kept thinking angry thoughts then they would move you up a level. And this young man, I think he is named Eric, was so rebellious, he wanted to get free from the city, and he kept thinking bad thoughts, like, 'This city is so evil!' and they eventually set him on level three. And I remember a girl, her name MAY have been Anna, I just know it started with an A. I think he was in love with, and he whittled her a chained hawk, like he was the hawk. Also, this girl worked for city leaders. Eventually, Eric found a way to get the wristband off. The cover was blue and It had a white silhouette of a head with circuits and stuff, and I believe it started with an E. And I didn't finish the book because the year ended, so, I would really like it if you knew what it was.

Can anyone tell me the title and/or author of a short series that I remember finding at the library and adoring in my early teens: It was very British. The main character was a little boy who was visiting extended family. I remember it beginning with specifications about being in only undergarments like long-johns still being the equivalent to being naked. His Aunt? and Uncle? invited him out in a horse-drawn cab. While in it they discussed "children should never be seen OR heard...only smelled," and whatever he chose to do in life, he needed to do it fully and passionately. The conversation turned to acting and they told him he MUST be an actor portraying an orphan and COULD NOT give up the act. Because of this, he (unintentionally) convinces someone else who gets a ride with them that he was an actual orphan. From there, he's taken to an orphanage and goes on some wild adventures. I also remember the quote, "watering the goat," with a simple illustration of a goat with wide eyes, staring startled out at nothing as a watering can is held above his back and water is poured out on him. I've attempted Googling the plot, the portions I've listed here, and even searching images for a match to the "goat" scene, but I've had no luck and I've been trying to find it for years.
I immediately found it after posting here! I entered, "Authors similar to Lemony Snicket," and the name Philip Ardagh came up. When selecting this author the series (the one I was looking for for YEARS!) popped up immediately! It's the Eddie Dickens Trilogy.

My bookclub read a book ten years ago that I cannot remember the title. A lady from Europe kills her own daughter to be free to marry a rich businessman who would not marry someone with a child. They marry and move to Florida and she becomes hallucinogenic with guilt and regret. I could not even finish the novel it was upsetting. But we can't remember the name of it.

Please help to find this novel to be able to reread it again
Non fiction "Happiness" in title, possibly: "The (something) of Happiness" (not B. Russell's "The Conquest..."). More a philosophical/cultural investigation rather than a self help. Early on it discusses, critically, government attempts at measuring citizens wellbeing by a (fairly) recent "happiness survey" (UK - Cameron?). Might be wrong but I think the paperback had a drawn clown picture on a light green background. Ta

Looking for a non fiction book published in 2017 and think the authors first name is Avery. The subject is how we expect too much from our police. The author talks about how policing has changed in the last 40 years and we now expect them to do too much. I think the title was 4 words. The Reduction? Of Police or Policing? Someone recently interviewed the author and I’d like read his book.
The cover is white with red and/or black writing it’s about grief, losing someone and moving on. I had the book and lost it but can’t remember the name I have a picture of a paragraph from the book but when I search into google it doesn’t come up anything.
But the truth is, you'll never move on. Not really. There will be some days when you can think of them with a smile and other days when they won't even cross your mind. will even feel normal again. But then there will be a day when a certain song comes on the radio, or you smell a stranger with a familiar perfume, and you'll lose control. Your tears will Turn into wails and the pain will be just as vivid as it was when it was fresh. That’s a paragraph from it.
The book is from 80s/early 90s. It’s about serendipity. (It’s not from the serendipity series from the 70s) it’s about a girl looking for one thing and finds other things she didn’t realize she wanted/needed.
I think the cover is blue and a 1 or 2 word title.
I'm also pretty sure it's a dark romance.
Please help me find it

She had a step brother who was really rude towards her. But beautiful part was his sister was dump, had a sign language book to interpret stuffs to her. She went out on a boat with him. I think later they fell in love.

The traveller driving his car went into the local pub in Bala and was telling the publican of his experience; whilst telling his experience a person from the corner of the pub came over and stated that it would have been impossible that the driver had seen the person he picked up as the stranger in the card was the son of the person whom was sat in the corner of the pub; he told the driver that his son had died many years ago; my son asked one day if he could goto a fair that was was in a neighbouring village the father told the son NO; how ever the son snuck out of the home and whilst travelling to the fair on his bike he was going down the road to the next village and a large bolder/Rock loosened from the hill side and killed son.

I am trying to find a book but searching for it is hard. I tried Google but otherwise I don't know what to do because I can't look based on details rather than broad plot descriptions and title or author. I know it was realistic fiction set in the 'present', but that could be anything from the 80s to 2000s (I'm in high school now). Definitely a juvenile chapter book, the main character is a girl in a two parent household, and it's in third person pov. I know that's not much to go off of, I'm really just trying to figure out this: Which children's book character used to have a cat, but her dad (I think?) was allergic, so she gave it to her friend and they ran it over? I think this occured before the story? I want to say there was something about the cat being flat as a pancake.
It was a children's/picture book about a mother and child that squeeze hands and say "Click" to take a mental picture of something they are doing together. I read it to my son when he was about 4 or 5. I would love to know the author and where I could purchase a copy. I thought the name of it was Click, but I cannot find a children's book with this plotline and this title. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi, looking for the title of this book I read many, many years ago. I think the girls name is Rosalie who is an only child of a rich man I think they live on the Mediterranean. A her fathers friend, who they don't know was an nazi, murders her father and everyman who Rosalie either falls in love with or marries. The story spans over Europe and America. For some reason, I recall a description of mansion she lived in as a girl has evil looking gargoyles in the courtyard. I'm thinking this book would have been written and published in the 70's
Mainly white book, with words for title. The main character was blunt. I think his wife/gf cheated on him and he found someone new. Or he was having an afair. It’s been a long time. There was also a lot of cursing

Book about a woman decorating the home for an ex boyfriends mother
I'm looking for a book I read maybe three years ago, about a woman who travels to find a man she haven't seen for years. I believe it is her childhood crush or something like that. She tracks him down and finds out he is on some tropical island so she flies there to "bump into" him. On the way she meets another guy, I believe he is a travel photographer or journalist. They keep bumping into each other, I think they live at the same hotel. He finds out what she is doing there, he sees her with binoculars on the beach, looking for her crush. At some point they walk across the island through a forest together and he helps her out.
The book is about this older guy who falls for a younger girl who comes to town, she is 17 years old. he decides to wait for her to grow older and courts her while she has a jealous step sister. At the end of the first novel the step sister sends someone to rape her sister and the guy rushes to the hospital.
I read this "kids" book back in 1987/1988ish. I can only remember one character that was featured on the cover of the book. He had a set of "glasses" on the back of his head and would only walk backwards [I think it was so no one could sneak up on him from behind] I don't remember the storyline or anything else, just him. I think a couple of kids were involved and may have initially met him in a board room meeting? Not 100% sure. I think they meet the guy [professor/good guy spy] about halfway through the book. He may have had a strange, maybe long last name, possibly starting with the letter S? I'll know the book for sure once I see the cover. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello! I am looking for a book I read a long time ago...I think the cover was red and black. It’s about a group of students getting out of school for a field trip on the other side of town and they had to stay in a cabin in the woods and when they stay there almost every one or two days one person from there group ends up getting killed and everyone in the group starts to get suspicious and they come up with that someone in there group is killing them and they have to find out who. Something I can vividly remember is that they find someone from there group one day I believe next to a river and he is just laying there with blood on his head and there with him is a rock with blood and they say he probably tripped on it.Also I think they didn’t have a lot of supplies because there bus broke down I think and that’s why they had to stay in a cabin..? That’s mostly what I can remember! Thank you!
Hi! I’m looking for a book I read in the early 1980’s. I remember it was set in part in Bangladesh, involved two boys who were friends and also rivals, especially at the kite festival. There may have been monkey gods and masks. I don’t remember and author, title, or cover details.
That sounds like The Kite Runner.
Hi! I started this book of short stories and I cannot remember who the author is or what the title of the book is the first short story started off with a group of young adults fleeing the country on a plane with a baby and it involved psychedelics. The mom was breast-feeding the child when she unknowingly ate the psychedelic her partner gave her. I didn’t finish the specific short story so that’s all I have. If anyone has any idea or information I would be so grateful!!
I owned a book that was very unusual if anyone knows what I'm talking about please let me know. This book was a hardback and the only thing on the cover was a small Christmas tree and that's it. When you open the book it was printed upside down. The book is basically about extraterrestrial life form. I'm not into alien conspiracy but I did find the book to be a very unusual and unique find. I've done many searches and haven't found anything close to what Ive described. If you have any info on this or have at least heard of it please let me know. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
Maybe you had the cover on upside down? I know with hardcover books you can have the coat of the book on the wrong way and it seams like the book inside is the wrong way up but if you turn the coat around it’s all ok.
Hello! I've been looking for a book lately, but unfortunately I can only remember the front and the back cover of it. The front cover depicted a village with quite bizarre creatures, like headless chickens, bagpipes that could walk, and other weird stuff like that. The back cover had a princess who was wearing an absurdly tall and pointy princess hat. I can't recall anything regarding the plot, as it looked too scary a book for a young child to read. If anyone recognizes this book, I'd be more than thankful to know about it.
Thank you

Trying to find a kids book I read several years ago. It was a two part series, the cover of the first book was mostly red-orange, and the second blue-black. It took place on Mars, with kids. I think they were being trained for a war with aliens who wanted to live on earth. The kids are all pretty young. The main character has a famous mom. There’s a robot, and I think it’s a goldfish?? They also meet an alien kid, and work everything out and stop the war. The alien kid uses they/them pronouns. The aliens can also turn invisible, and show their emotions through turning different colors. Does anyone know this book??
I think Mars was in the title of the first book, although I’m not sure. Also, the earth is being frozen by the aliens, because they lived with colder temperatures. I think the adults disappeared at some point, and they went to go look for them?
I am trying to find a book I read SOOO long ago. It was about a group of girls where one day they each get a envelope with a token inside. Each token has a animal on it.

I can hardly remember the books but they're a series similar to the poison apple book series, I think the name has something to do with curse or apple and they were types of spinoffs of Disney princess tales (sleeping beauty, snow white etc.)
was it Land of Stories
So, a friend of mine really liked the plot of a book but she doesn't know the title and the author. It was about one music producer who falls in love with one of his singers, but she doesn't reply with the same feelings, rather she is a more free and open-minded person who is interested in different men. One day she becomes sick and the producer believes that she is blind so he decides to make her pay by making her to sing in auditorium with special effects (negative response from public) but appears that she is not blind and sees everything and dies.
It will be helpful if someone knows anything

so there is this book that i used to have on my kindle that i read almost every other month that i completely lost track of when i lost the kindle membership. It is about this girl that was abandoned as a baby and this boy took her in (now they're basically siblings). anyway, its in this world where the classes are so drastic that you either live in the heart of the city, or you live outside the wall, in what are basically freight containers. she's a messenger, sending mail and stuff, but we find out that she can manipulate time. in her mind, its like a river of strings that she holds on to and pulls to slow them down. i know that she goes on this mission with this guy to find some other people who can save them from something.... but i know that at the end she finds out she is the daughter of time and the guy that came with her was actually assigned to take care of her and then he dies because all his past injuries that healed super quick come back and kill him. the title is "Th___ ___ _ of __ and stones" and the cover is this girl in classic dystopian-adventurer outfit with a messenger bag and everything and she walking in a stone alleyway, kind of? also, i know that there is a second book called infinity or something similar. Help!
The Gate of thread and stone?
the second book is called the infinite its by Lori M Lee 🙂
Years ago I was reading a paperback book about 3 friends who came to know Jesus as Savior. I believe the setting was in the Netherlands, possibly within the last 25 years. They were very rough and tumble characters, with the main character going to jail for robbery. Their lives intersected with Floyd McClung of YWAM . They spend time on the Ark, a boat docked in the Netherlands. Eventually most of their whole families came to faith in Jesus.
Thqank you so much
So, I had picked a book I found in my cousins car, and started reading it out of boredom, and I got really into it, but of course, I can’t remember what the title was or like anything really useful. I do remember, however, that (I think) there was this girl who couldn’t like love anyone or either like make love to anyone..i am not sure..but she couldn’t do it because if she did they would like die or be poisoned by her touch, or something like that-idk I kinda just read random pages sometimes out of boredom...the cover had like an eye on it, and the rest of it was gray, I think there was like a forest in the eye, or maybe it was like something to do with love, idk. But there was also like black stuff dripping from her eye, and idk. I just wanna read the book so badly, but I can’t remember. I hope I can find it! Bye!
Oh! Actually, I think the title started with a “S” and I think it was like “Shattered” or something, but I’m not sure...
It's called " shatter me " by tahere mafi
I’m looking for a book I read as a child.
It was a hardback and the cover was sort of metallic green with a young boy and possibly a dragon on the front.
It starts with the boy going to a pet shop to buy a tropical fish after saving and saving for it, but for some reason he ends up buying a different animal (could be a dog but can’t remember fully). Then I remember that the dog/whatever somehow leads him into a alternative reality or something, and I’m pretty sure his mum who is sick is trapped in the alternate world/reality.. it could be some sort of portal fantasy but I can’t quite remember. There is a sequel as well and I remember having a paper back version of it with a navy blue cover but that is all I can remember as I don’t think I read it.
I read this book a long time ago and only remember one part of it that's kind of hazy so here goes sorry if I don't make much sense. The main character was a female and the part I remember was the main character and a boy were on top of a train (trying to get in I think. Some kind of fight perhaps?) And the boy is a species of shapeshifter called a chameleon. I believe he turned into a dragon/lizard creature. I'm pretty sure it's a series and that this book isnt the first. They were running from someone/thing if I remember correctly. Earlier on in the books there might have been a scene in an old town with alchemy symbols on the walls as some kind of clue but I might just be remembering a different book. If I'm right there was more people part of the team then just the boy and the girl but they weren't in the scene. If anyone can help that would be great thank you
I read a really interesting book that I absolutely loved, however I can’t remember the total or author. Please if you can help me out 🙂
An Irish family, they went to church every weekend, and the two sisters went to a town ball, one sister fell in love with a fella but her father didn’t approve of him. Her father and brother went out one evening and beat him, telling him to stay away from their daughter. The father locked his daughter up in her room and wouldn’t let her out, although mum didn’t agree with it she was to afraid to say anything to the father. Her sister helped her and got in contact with the young boy, arranged for them to meet at midnight and to run away and never come back, so they took the horse one night and caught the ferry to England where she found a sick woman and looked after her, they swapped names and she gave birth to the child. The fella was living rough cause he couldn’t get a job, then he got a job working on a barge that a horse pulled, he eventually went back for her once he had some stability but was told she had had a baby so he was to afraid to contact her thinking she had moved on.
Sorry it isn’t the best description but I have forgotten some of the minor details.

Found the book in the first try
There was a short story I read in a collection back in the nineties. A man is given a mystical word by a friend, that when used, makes things work to the benefit of the one using the word. He uses it a few times and has several things work out really well for him. Then his friend informs him that the word is the property of a shadowy organization his friend is a member of and that he wasn't supposed to give out the word. The man promises not to use it again.
Time passes and the man succumbs to temptation and uses the word one more time, and then gets contacted by his friend right before the friend is killed as punishment. The man then goes on a wild chase, hunted by the organization, trying to stay one step ahead by repeatedly using the word.
Has anyone else read this story? Hopefully someone out there remembers it and knows the author and title, and maybe the title of the collection it appeared in.
Great article, thank you so much for sharing
There was a book I read when I was a kid. Its about two little girls. They are best friends. I believe one was really poor. They would meet up at a tree on a hill. The poor girls little brother gets sick and dies. I thought the title was called Tracy and Lucy. But I guess thats wrong. I can't find this book

I had a book I never intended to fall in love with it, it was only from the pound shop 2 years ago. It was a girl who worked with her boyfriend at the time and he cheated on her with a colleague, she decided she wanted to move on to a better job and she worked at Harris’s she would spend half of her pay check on clothes and shoes from there and one day her car broke down, I don’t remember much of it, I think it was a blue book cover
I downloaed a book to my kindle, i cannot remember the title or author, it centres around a girl called Amy, who works in a night club, as a waitress, it is also a strip club. Amy's father died at the twin towers, and her mother brings her up, till she dies of cancer. There are a man and a woman who are FBI officers. One night on leaving the club Amy drives, but her car is found abandoned.

It has like dark colors like black and dark blue maybe.I think the lead character is named rain and is female and is in high school. And she lives with her mom but her mom is like depressed or sick or an addict because shes constantly in bed and never gets out. She either plays soccer or has a friend who plays(think she plays). And she meets this boy and she doesn't want the boy to know where she lives for some reason I think because she kinda poor and the mom is an addict. But they end up hitting it off. But she like trys very hard not to let the bit see where she lives. And I know its a series because I remember later in a book she goes to college. Please help thanks.
Fiction and modern (within last 20 years). I probably purchased paperback from Exclusive Books. Possibly dark green/grey cover. Story line relates to man who lives/behaves as tramp in slumland (possible ex drug addict) - He protects vulnerable against thugs / drug pushers / land lords - operates alone and generally without weapons - Eventually brings down "Mr Big Crime" who drives a fancy car. Title might be something like "unforgiven" or "forgotten". Might have been UK based plot. Any Ideas on Author/Title.
I have found it - Author is Gerald Seymour and book title is "RAT RUN". Well I was way out on the title! I will read again and then decide if the the long search to rediscover it was worthwhile.
The story was about two or three young ones was left at home, it as about how a spot of dirt was cleaned and passed to another spot. They had to clean it then it was on something else. I remember it was vacuumed and it wound up on the outside to snow. It's a cute story but I don't remember if it was a Dr. Seuss book or what. Can you help? Thank you
The Cat in the Hat, by dr suess

Looking to identify a book about former SAS operatives investigating the suicide of a girl in London who was the daughter of wealthy parents and had become a drug addict and forced into performing sex acts on web cam by the chetchen mafia
Oh wow. Ok I’ve read this book two or three times and I’ve never forgotten then name of it until now, when I want to read it again of course. It has a dark blue cover, set in the night and has a full moon with a tree and a dragons silhouette I’m pretty sure. I think the title had the word “enchanted” or something like that in it. I know it started with a “the”. It’s about a girl and her dad is a dragon, I think he was the king but the people overtook him and put him in a cave. He has control over an enchanted forest and he wants to get his daughter back. I think the first few sentences of the book was “the trees are growing in faster this year” or something because the trees come in every year. The forest calls out the girls name and lures her in. I think every year at least one girl is lured in and never heard from again, probably dead. There was this woman in the forest who didn’t have a face, or a face of sun, and she sat on a log and knitted. Her job was to lure the girl in farther. That’s all I remember so far except that she fell in love in the middle of the book I think but later dumped him for her father. I’m pretty sure she was in love with the prince. I don’t know. Please please please find it if u can. I am going crazy!
The Enchanted Forest!?
I read this book last year some time and I loved it but I’ve been trying to find it for 2 months now with no luck. This is what I remember if someone could help that would be awesome. There was this girl when she was 11 or 12 these warrior people came to her small village in the mountains. They offered a reward her anyone willing to come and train to be a warrior and to be connected to a daemon (I think that is was they are called. They look like humans but they hate fire) this girls family need the money so she stepped forward. They had to go to a tent to see if they could pass the test and they had to put on a gold cuff and the other person did to and see if they could feel what they feel. She had the gift so she left and trained till she was 17 then she would to binded to a daemon boy her age. She has a friend named issac. Her sister died to a rouge daemon on the mountain where she grew up. They fight these people and issac warrior partner dies but he was in love with him. They go to see the king and issac betrays them. She gets put in a dungeon in the castle and issac cuts off her hand to get the cuff that links her to her friend so they can torture him. Then the kings warrior partner ends up being her friends mom and helps her and her friend escape. Then her friends father who is named viktor helps them and they go on the run. ( that’s all I can remember if anyone can get anything out of that. I would be very greatful)

Choose author or title if you have a specific book in mind and you know either the authors name or the title of the book (e.g. you are searching for the book The Da Vinci Code ).
I hope someone responds to my comment: I'm looking for a fantasy series by an author that I forgot the name of, here are the parts I can remember: so I think there are two children (I'm pretty sure that they are teenagers) venture out into a forbidden forest, the first teenager was babysitting their younger sibling, when suddenly the younger sibling (the younger sibling was a baby) was somehow taken into the forest, the teen rides into the forest with her bike without telling her parents, there was also a boy that she met before who was particularly her friend, but he followed her into the forest because I think he was concerned about her. After the boy walks into the forest he loses where the girl went, after some time though they bump into each other. I think after that they see a van going by in the forest, the person in the van I think has some kind of drink to deliver like wine in crates, or maybe the crates were empty, the driver offers to help them go to animal civilization, which is a very strange place for both the boy and the girl. A queen needs the baby for that the girl is looking for but I forgot the reason. The boy and girl go into war, also the boy even went into an animal jail once. That's all I remember.
The first place I "look" for an lost book from memory is librarian at the local library. It is amazing the amount of knowledge these ladies (or gentlemen) have in their brain. Many have photogenic memories so you can get relatively close and they can find it! If you have online access to your library, that is the place to check first. Old books usually stay in libraries but may become archived or moved to digital only per damage to book.
that is fine, but the librarians i knew are all dead and gone. it was almost 40 yr ago i read the book i am in search of.
Great information. Maybe I can help my son find that book he is looking for.
What about when you've read an excerpt in the back of an e-book and you can't remember the name of the book you were reading? I've been looking for a mail order bride book that has a bride in a wheel chair and the sheriff marries her.
If you remember it fully or part of it, you could always type it into Google and see what pops up. Most of the time, that works for me. You could start off with Book Quote.... that might narrow it down
The problem is that I only remember the excerpt at the back of the e-book, I don't think the book I was reading was to good, because I can't remember any of it. I know the excerpt was a story about several mail order brides coming to town and one was in a wheel chair.
same
i cant remeber the story
Me neither. Not very helpfull.
