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!
Looking for a book I read in 2000, it’s a Christian book written by someone in the Middle East or somewhere in Indonesia or somewhere near there. It chronicles miracles of a believer commanding rats to depart from a house and they obey and get into a line and disappear forever. Also when other areas are raining the believer asks God to protect him from the rain and he walks on without getting wet and many more miraculous events on physical healing.
I’m looking for a Christian book in which a man is writing about how he put himself in chains and sat in the middle of the city in chains for Jesus Christ. Read it around the year 2000-2001.

I’m looking for a book about a woman who travels back to her dead husband’s ƙingdom but when she gets there notices that many things don’t seem right. Footsteps seem to follow behind her in the castle halls and someone seems to be out to kill her and the 15 year old prince. On her way there her carriage stops outside a butchers shop and the driver dismounts and goes in but doesn’t come out, a while later the horse pulling the carriage freaks out and runs off into the woods with her in it, she notices after the carriage stops and she almost died that one of the straps had been cleanly cut as if with a knife. The prince comes into her room later that evening and he clearly doesn’t like that she is here because she is an outsider and he casually eats out of the dinner plate left for her in her room, later she’s scared when he collapses due to an upset stomach and she becomes scared as she thinks back to the food wondering if it was poisoned. She also meets the prince’s grandmother in her garden picking flowers, she doesn’t like her too…

I’m looking for a book that I got for Christmas as a youngster in 1985… it was a paperback, green cover, and it offered a wide range of computer-simulated match-ups between all-time greats in baseball, football, boxing, etc…. I have fond memories of leafing through it and I have no idea where it got to… the title was too generic to remember, but it must have had something to do with the specific computer model used to process the data culled from 20th century sporting history… anyone have any idea what this was called?
This was a short story, I thought by Faulkner, obviously mistaken, about a quiet man that never bothers anyone. He is strong and has hands of redwood. He only has his plot of land in his life and it is everything to him. When he realizes he will lose his land, he hangs himself from a tree. Amazing detailed description in this story from the 1920’s or 1940’s possibly. Can anyone help?
It was a fantasy, I was very young when I read it so it seemed long buy it could’ve easily been short as well. A boy goes on some type of fantasy adventure to save a princess. I know he does end up saving her and it started with his bedroom filling with water and him floating away in his bed
There was a big book for children where the kids got a parrot. The children tried to teach the parrot how to say traditional phrases and practiced relentlessly to no avail. However the mother’s favorite phase to mishaps in the house was, “My goodness, gracious me.” One day the dog got tangled up in a table cloth and caused total chaos in the house. The kids chased the dog to end the situation. The parrot taking in the scene from his cage said his first words, which were “My goodness, gracious, me!”
Okay, so this book is somewhat a mystery with the leading man named Wolfe (something like that). The main character, the name I’ve forgotten, thinks of herself similar to and worships Martha Stewart. Takes place in a small town, I’m pretty sure. I think it’s been around ten years since it’s been published.
Ok so I haven’t read this book since the 90’s. Of course it had no cover (it was a hardcover and the cover flap was missing). I think I found the book at the park or on the train.
So the story is about a middle aged woman with breast cancer and she decides to not get treatment for it. She describes the fluids oozing from her breasts and other symptoms she’s dealing with as the result of not getting treatment. Then she does and the book takes you on her experience with the afterlife. Can’t remember anything else, but I sure would like to find the book again.
There is a book that I don’t remember where

The book I’m looking for was originally published by Penguin, it was about a guy that reported on his neighbours and colleagues and sent these reports into the govt. by post. One day he gets called in to see the govt. he thinks it’s for a reward or a commendation but it’s actually because they’ve seen something in his reports that they don’t like. The book reminded me of Orwell’s 1984, it definitely has a similar theme but I can’t for the life of me think of the title or the author, great book though!
Mine’s about a kid living in the city. All I remember is 1. He makes a friend who gets married. 2. He helps an old lady (his neighbor) raise some cats and his favorite orange one gets stepped on and dies.

Hi! The book I’m looking for has a single mom with a son and daughter. I don’t remember much but I remember that the son manages to find a kind of “too good to be true” place for them to live for free, and he gets a job as a restaurant so he can bring home food for them to eat every night so the mom can quit her job and focus on school work. The ending has a twist (spoiler alert!) where the son thought he found the mom’s long lost parents and chose to stay in their house while they were on vacation without them knowing, but it turns out they aren’t her parents, just people with the same names who live in a smokier area.

book about an american son seeking information about his french mother that fell in love with his dad in the french resistance
Not sure if this is the one you are referring to, as the details are a little different, but perhaps it is the book known as ‘I Am David’ or ‘North To Freedom’. I do not remember the name of the author
not remotely helpful. I only remember what story to book. I can describe story only.
I am looking for A book I read two or three years ago. It is historical fiction and takes place just as America was beginning to have some social services. A young social worker gets her first job somewhere in the southern states where she visits poor families. Eventually she discovers some of these women were given hysterectomies without their knowledge under the umbrella of helping them with Health issues. The young social worker puts her job on the line to help one of these poor young women who wanted to have a baby. This is based on fact as there was documentation and footnotes in the back of the book when women were actually brought to Washington to testify in congressional hearings.
Hi, I’m looking for a hardback book which is a collection of short horror stories. The cover is dark blue with an old stone building (kind of like a church) on the front with yellow light coming from the windows (I got it from my primary school so it should supposedly be for children though I’m not sure). I vaguely remember a few of the stories; one where a girl growing up is terrified of a cat which has green/yellow eyes. One day, after she has grown older this cat attacks her, then she marries a man who looks vaguely similar to the cat with the same eyes, the cat isn’t seen again. Eventually the man disappears and she has a baby daughter but this daughter shockingly goes missing, the woman claims she drowned her in the river because she was convinced that it was a kitten but no baby is found, only the corpse of a small kitten. Another story is written through journal entries where a vampire curse is awoken which starts attacking farm animals and terrifying the residents of a small and remote village. Eventually the ‘root’ of this evil is a vampire woman with long black hair who is eventually killed/put back to sleep. The last story I can kind of remember is written in 2nd person where it is described that you are entering a house at night and I’m pretty sure a ghostly figure is mentioned at some point as well. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Am looking for a book the hero is a film star and he married a tomboy that saved him
hi! so i read this book a while ago, and i dont remember many details, but i do recall that their was a character named sheridan. the main character’s dad recently made or became the founder of something, and she went to this school that she used to go to, and she made a plan to disband these girls who were exclusive like the “popular” kids, but failed, and when sheridan did that, she actually stuck with them. i remember sheridan and another person, i think her name was shannon, made this club called the s ___ (i forgot what the last word was). the main character called them out because they were calling her and her new friends (the popular girls) exclusive and selfish, but the main character said by making the S ___, they were only naming it after themselves, calling it selfish, but they countered that by saying the S wasn’t for their names, but stood for special.

An elementary poem in the 60’s that tells that if you read you will never be alone because books can take you on adventures like “going around the world in a spaceship or go hunting tigers brave and bold”.
I can’t remember the author of this book – I think it is Dean Koontz but I’m not sure. It is about a young girl that moved from a small country town to the city to further her career. Sometime later she decided to return to visit her parents and recall her past life. She drove towards her home town and on her way stopped at a small roadhouse on the outskirts. She was hungry so she quickly made her way to the counter and ordered her food. She had an eerie feeling about the place and when she looked around she noticed that other clients sitting at their tables where not communicating and were very ill mannered and messy. She paid for her lunch and quickly raced back to her car. She ate in the car then proceeded to her parents home. On her arrival she was not greeted, which was very strange, so she had to knock on the front door. When she entered she had that strange eerie feeling again. Her parents were uncommunicative and cold. She couldn’t understand why! She decided to go up to her old room and have a short rest. When she awoke, nothing had changed. She went for a walk around the town but quickly returned home as everything had changed and she didn’t feel safe. Her parents were in bed so she too had an early night. Next morning that eerie feeling was back again. She decided to visit an old friend of the family’s to find out if he could help her understand the changes. She felt safe at his house and they sat down and talked about the problem. He told her that most of the people in town had been attacked by an unknown virus. This virus changed them completely, making them sloven, vicious, and cold hearted. Once infected they were then forced to pass this infliction on to all others they met. The story goes on about the frightening experiences this young girl has, making her run from home to be with the elderly family friend where she felt safe. They both decided it was too dangerous to stay in town so they immediately jumped into his car and took off. When they were about 10klm from town there was a huge explosion. The whole town was obliterated, every building demolished and every living thing terminated. They went on to another town and started a new life together.
If you can help me find this book I would be thoroughly surprised and most greatfull.
I read a book, can’t remember the author tho, but there was a girl named Lydia Grey that was married off by her father to an old man who had children older than she was. He used to maltreat her and he finally died along side her father in an accident leaving a will that made Lydia the sole owner of all his properties. The children didn’t like it, so she ran away to her aunt’s place, unknown to her she was pregnant with her late husband’s child, where she met a guy that owned a saw mill and married him. One of the children of her late husband kidnapped her child and gave it to his sister to take care

the book i am looking for is a futuristic dystopian world in which demons have taken over the world. So basically demons possess humans and fool real humans into thinking that they are humans as well. the protagonist is a girl and she is an exorcist . I don’t recall her name, but from what I can remember she travels with her boyfriend and her sister and a few other people. her sister is pregnant. In the book, the people are being protected from the demons by the church but since it is a sin to get pregnant when underage, they kicked out the protagonist’s pregnant sister. there’s also a well ,in the book, in which there are souls and for a baby to be born there must be a soul in the well for it or else the baby will die within a few hours. But there isn’t any souls in the well so yh.
The book I’m looking for is something about an island. A young boy who goes on vacation finds a secret key that goes to a library and anything the boy reads ends up on an island across from his house that he was staying in. The cover looked like green and blue with an island on it.
I can’t remember much, but this book is about a girl who I believe is in high school. She has a pretty good life. And then her family has to move after her dad loses his job? I think they go to her moms home town and she meets this boy. I think he would help the family out while they were un packing. They start to have feelings for one another. They date secretly and he ends up being bad for her. That’s all I can remember

Hey, I really hope someone can help me find this book that I read in isolation once. Its about a guy who sees his mate selling drugs behind a nightclub and the ending is him fighting his friend because of a girl. Sorry for such little info, because I read this book in school.
Hello,
I hope someone can help me find this book. I am looking for a book about a caregiver that met developmental needs of the children she cared for in a single day. She cooked with them, danced with them rode bikes, did gardening and took them to the beach I believe. It was called “Miss-something” or “Aunt” I have no idea. I would really love to add this book to my library. My teacher read it to us during our CDA course. I would really love to know the name of this book. Thanks in advance for anyone able to put the pieces together to help me find this book.
A book about a girl who lives in a world where all superstitions are true. There are families that are lucky and some that aren’t, hers isn’t. She has a brother. She goes to like middle school or high school, but i think middle school. I remember a scene where she and her bro were walking to school and had to jump around cracks so their mother wouldnt get hurt. another where two girls said something at the same time, another came up behind and jinxed them, they were literally mute. another in a graveyard, she tried to avoid it but couldn’t. There were exams to determine whether you were lucky and she gave everyone 4 leaf clovers from some guy and they all passed. I also remember she found a black cat named Jinx who was actually super lucky. There were 2 different high schools, one for lucky people and one for the unlucky, and a bad part of town where unlucky people went when they graduated. That’s where she found the cat. They also had a friday 13th where the mom hung crows everywhere? Don’t know if I’m being too cryptic but if anyone knows what I’m talking about pls help. Thank you! 🙂
Trying to find two novels I read years ago and Google hasn’t been kind lol.
The first is a more recent novel, maybe published in last 10-15 years about a serial killer of Hindi descent who has lived his whole life possessed by some type of super supernatural serpent creature (based on the idea of Kundalini) that gives him the ability to burn others by touch. A group of religious heretics are trying to hunt him down and the cover of memory serves had a snake tattoo or design and a fiery background.
The other is an older novel with a shapeshifter theme that explores a man who encounters a strange woman on the road in the desert and she can become different animals. He learns about her tribe and they may be from another dimension. The “villain” at the end goes through a portal and ends up trapped in a tar pit and cannot escape despite trying to shift into various creatures. I believe there was a cougar or other wild cat on the front.
escapes prison chased by dogs crosses the river stays in water melon farm and gets job in petrol pump .
Please help me find this

This is a middle grade book that I read ten-ish years ago. It is a story about a middle school girl named Ivy (i think) who’s dealing with making friends and such. She gets a goldfish around the beginning and she wants to get her ears pierced. There is a scene with a snowball fight at school. At the end she goes to a sleepover where her friends dare her to let them pierce her ears.
I’m looking for the title of a children’s book. The cover was red and the story was about a woman and a wagon. The wagon had a churn of cream in it and as the wagon went over bumps “clippity cloppity” the cream soon turned into butter. The woman wore a bonnet and a 1800’s style dress. My son read this book in the early 90’s and it was an older book. Would love to find this book!
Two humorous young-adult books I read around 1972-1975. In one, a farm boy became an amazing baseball pitcher and his granny is in the story (possibly his manager). The other book is similar but he’s an prodigy football player.
Was definitely made before the 2000s. Maybe mid 90s? It’s a red and black book with a frame in the image. I can’t remember exactly but I believe a devil or some similar scary looking thing on the cover. It was in my elementary school’s library as a kid but I don’t think it was a children’s book.
1964-1965
All I remember is a female protagonist, the book had a red cover
And I think the title included the words “red feather “
Hey, I’m not sure if that’s it’s, but I know a book called the Red tent, written in red, the protagonist is indeed a female character and the cover has a woman in it, could it be it?
This books has a blue cover and I know that there is this character named Gerard, that’s gay, and Cali a girls that maybe is his friend (? Please I really want to find it

Hello all, well, I’m looking for a book I read back in the late 80’s early 90’s or so. Here is what I remember, most the people of the earth had died, some kind of end of world event, well, this girl goes thru a lot to survive, has an incident in a Wal-mart, anyway finds this ring of melted glass that looks like a crown, some guy trying to help keep her alive, she finds out she has the power to make plants grow again, something about touching a tree that ends up growing again, leaving her hand print on the trunk of the tree. She ends up being the savior of the world.
Like I said its been a good many years and I’m a man so my memory isn’t the best. Thank you all for your time.

Please help if you know what im talking about.
Does anyone – OK, I feel like more likely than not no one – no one – will know the book I am talking about, but yeah. I remember I had this book from my childhood, though greater specification about the book regarding when it was published etc. would fail my memory. I dare believe it was before 2010? Maybe before 2008? It was a paperback, blue cover (dark or navy blue), andd——the title, that’s what fails me. Did it contain “journal” or “interesting” or even “very”? Only heaven knows, but I sure hope I am wrong 🙂
maybe The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian?
I am looking for a children’s book from the 1960″s. It is a story about some children who break a stained glass window in a church and use a quilt to make a new one. I think this is a Christmas themed book.
So hi,
The book I am looking for is fiction, supernatural, YA and about a girl who has to survive alone, now that her mother is, I think dead? And she knows that she has powers and she has to go to a family but I don’t know if they are relatives or just random people. Anyway, she is send to a magical academy then and has to live in a house of someone who has something to do with the academy and his either nephew or son or something lives there too.
I think this whole story is in Ireland or Scotland or something and the academy has something to do with ravens, and she finds a redhead friend in there and the boy she lives with goes there too. Her first encounter with him is, that she meets him in the garden of the house and he sits in a tree and splashes a bit water onto her to get her attention. So she finds out who he is that he has water and I think air powers. And the plot is about, that the girl and then the boy have to fight the evil director of the school but he tricks them and in the final fight he found a way to connect the girls and the boys powers and manages to make them forget each other. So I suppose the girl has some mind powers? I also remember that their first kiss was, when the girl got kidnapped in a car and managed to flee into some field where the boy found her. Yeah and then the kiss happened. And in the second book, she has to do some kind of mission for the director in some city and she meets the boy there when she came out of a book shop in the rain. That’s about all I remember and I’m sure the title or the academy name or something has to do with ravens. Uhm,…..so can anyone help me?
Could it be James Patterson Maximum Ride about children who are experimented on and grow wings?
A book about a girl who was 15-16 and she lives with her grandma I think. She was invited to her aunts wedding and she wanted to lose weight for the wedding. She works at a pretzel place in a mall and she meets a guy and later was invited to some sort of summer party and the guy was there. She was made fun of because of her weight. She saw this diet package from her grandma’s exercise video. At the end of the book she doesn’t lose the exact amount of weight but she’s happy and she goes to the wedding with the boy
cute
A short illustrated book about a boy who is bullied and loves gasoline pumps. He does not like his life so stands by the road with 2 fingers in his ear with the hope of turning into a gasoline pump (which happens slowly from the feet up). Weird stuff happens like some bullies force him to eat an abacus. At the end when he is a gas pump, his parents not recognizing him use him to get some petrol and say how much their son would have admired this gas pump, and he gives them free petrol and spits out free money.
Does anyone remember a fairly old SF book about a man, stranded I think, on a planet with multicolor (glass/fragile) flora growing underfoot? I think I remember the survival suit provided all needs, then was attacked by the “shards”. I started reading it probably 40 years ago and lost the book before I could finish reading.
Thanks in advance – other resource suggestions welcomed!

The book is called Prism but I don’t remember the author. Sorry.

A Child Called It by Dave Pelzer
I read this book like 7 or 8 years ago, probably more. It was about a single mom and her son, I can’t remember why but she treated him terribly, ways like putting his hand or I think his face over a burning stove and making him eat garbage and poop, she starved him sometimes. Honestly it was a very very sad book, and the boy got saved at the end and was taken away from her.
Also I think it had a red or dark orange cover
I read this book a while ago I don’t remember the title or author but it was about this boy who just broke up with his girlfriend and ends up with a rebound but in the end finally ends up falling in love with his sister’s babysitter. it’s a comedy and it’s narrated from the perspective of cupid {sort of}
I read it a couple of years ago. The cover was dark blue with an oil rig in the backround. It takes place in a coastal town. The plot of the book is a boy whose dad died in an oil rig accident when he was at work. He works at a grocery store, and is in high school. He meets a girl, and they get really close. He is really good at art but doesnt tell anyone. He then realizes, when he meets her family, that her dad is the lawyer for the company that his dad had worked for, and they are trying to keep him and his family quiet about what really happened. In the end of the book there is a hurricane, but nobody dies. I cannot remember the title for the life of me.
I am looking for the name of a book. It’s a love story. The woman get sold by her dad who I think is in the mafia. The guy that he sells her to she falls in love with eventually and in the end they get married and have kids. The epilogue is their daughter’s wedding and the main guy ends up having MS…ring any bells?
I’m trying to remember a book in which that the main character is a boy who feels a compulsion To move saplings from a sacred path to the side so that no one will walk on them I think the path is called the Urwald. And that there are monsters I think but the monsters cannot attack you on the path it’s like A magical law also I think it’s some point his teacher or mentor is trapped inside of a bottle but that might just be my imagination
A boy who feels an impulse to dig up saplings from a magical sacred pathway through a forest in which there is an Unspoken Rules that no one can harm each other on that path also I think his mentor or teacher is trapped in a bottle at some point the main characters name might be ronin or rhonin but I cannot be certain In the sacred path has a name like wergild and I think it’s in a world called the urwald actually that might be the name of the path
The book I wanna find is about a teenage girl named aisling and her young brother who go on a journey and fight a raven

So the fiction is basically about a girl who’s very pretty named Bella who is rich but enslaved and brought to Egypt with a few more slaves. They are tied with ropes n shipped to Egypt. The story is from the ancient times. And there in Egypt they discover how the pretty girls and handsome men are used for sexual purposes by the pharaohs. They are dressed and adorned for the upper class people and they are open to several gruesome and terrible secrets of the ancient Egyptians. The scenes are quite explicitly explained n portraited in the novel I read it a couple of years back. There are 2 parts of the book I guess. Please do find that book for me

Maybe The Land Of Stories : Wishing Spell
Dear Book Cave,
I’m looking for a book which I found in the philosophy shelves of the Waldenbooks book store in the Los Cerritos Center back in 1981. The book was a small paperback book with a plain white cover. I do remember that the keyword in the title was ‘Ethics’ with some kind of subtitle. I don’t remember the author’s name but I do remember that he was some sports journalist of some name and was a columnist for the New York Times and other major publications which he joked about that he had to be one of the least likely authors of a book on ethics, but that he felt compelled to write about philosophy because of his own personal experiences and observations of human nature and behavior throughout his career as a sports journalist. I do remember the very striking shocking example with which he started the book to illustrate one of his main points about how a person can be good at being an athlete but bad at being a human being. He wrote about a star baseball player of the day, Thurman Munson who was a great baseball player but a very bad person, whom nobody cared for at all, and, who nobody missed very much when he crashed his own private plane and died. The author himself frankly admitted to knowing the man and feeling the same way about him that everybody else did.
It was this blunt admission of loathing which the author made which put me off from buying the book, but I’ve regretted not putting aside personal outrage and immaturity o my part to set aside and see beyond trivial offense the broader and deeper value of another unexpected insight and point of view. I’ve searched for the book over the past few years off and on, and just can’t get that book out of my head. I really wanted and needed to find out the rest of what the author had to say because of my own experiences and insight over the past forty years of living in the world and dealing with the people in it as part of my own moral and practical journey.
If anyone knows the full title and the name of the author and where I can get this book, please write back to me with all due speed to tell me because it’s something that I really have to finish and settle in my life.
Thank you for your attention and assistance,
Phillip Jones

Free kindle book (YA Fantasy/ dystopian)
Read the first book around 2017 I think but I can’t be sure.
The main character (female) left her father (General or commander of their army or something like that) and brother in outer space where they lived to sneak on a space ship headed out on a mission. I remember she knocked out one of the men and stole his uniform and took his place. The ship crashed on a planet (might have been earth) the survivors blamed her and left her at the crash sight (i think) but then she encountered a monster/beast (I think/ it was either that or she just heard a noise and followed it until she found a man) when she found him she tried to fight him but he was too fast and he knocked her out and they travelled through a portal.
Then she woke up in an old house (old ages) it turned out to be the guys mother’s house ( she might have been a healer) the outside of the house was guarded by a big dog or creature.
But more or less they were both warriors and the guy was a high ranked soldier protecting his village from beasts and his brother was the king. There was a ball near the end of the book where a magic object told the king who he could be matched with romantically. And at the end of the book the female character found out her father and brother came on the same planet with a rescue team and her brother got kidnapped so she had to leave. The last thing that happened was the guy dropping her off where he fist found her.
I’ve been looking for this book for so long and i remember almost the whole book but I just can’t seem to find it.
Please help me find it I really want to read it again and finish the series or duology.

I am trying to find this book about a girls brother gets sick. The family goes on this crazy road trip to help the brother. Along the way they stop at there grandmas house who is a witch. She has a hole in her backyard which leads to the underworld. Ghosts visit her. One ghost likes to play with matches and ends up setting the house on fire, they escape. Another part of the book is where they get to a place called Lost Angels, where there are angels. They find the Leprechaun and makes a deal with him to save his son. He loses but the family escapes. I have been trying to search for this book for 2 months I need help!
I am looking for a book the cover is of a young man standing at the bottom of the staircase and a girl coming down the stairs with a blue dress. I think the young man’s name was Daniel. Daniel ended up marrying his adopted sister.
I don’t remember many details bc it’s been years. It’s about a teenage boy who’s in a prep school of the sort and he ends up sleeping with his classmates girlfriend leading to a fight and getting kicked out. He goes to live with his father who he isn’t that close with if I remember correctly. He finds some sort of map that belonged to his uncle and finds a little island. I think there was some type of specific bird he discovered that his uncle had mentioned in his notes. He also meets this girl from his new found friend group that he has feelings for. I don’t remember the ending or anything else unfortunately.
I need help finding this book!!
A group of siblings, (a large group, I think that there were at least 5 – 8 kids), are really rich. They live in a big house with their parents, and they all have special skills. They are really into solving puzzles and mind games. One day, their parents don’t come back from a trip, and they are informed that they have to go live with their grandfather. When they arrive in his small town, they discover that their grandfather is not there! (I’m pretty sure that he was a sailor, and his house had a lot to do with sailing and the ocean.) The siblings keep to themselves, as most of the town gossips about them and their family. The youngest child, (or one of the younger ones, anyway), makes friends with the neighbor. Their neighbor is a small girl named Violet, (I think), and she is allergic to oxygen. Her father is very strict and her stepmom is very mean, and neither of them allow Violet to leave the house, as she must stay in specific conditions where the air is clean for her to breathe. She escapes anyway, to play with the siblings, and she wears a helmet that makes it safe for her to go outside. Their grandfather’s house is full of fun rooms, and I remember one such room they called the Smell Library, where smells are bottled. I’m pretty sure that at the end, one of the oldest siblings, a girl, goes to the mail office and gets a letter from her… parents? The novel is a mystery novel.
I think the book is named after the last name of the family, the town, or the house. The cover may be their house as well.
I believe you may be looking for books by Enid Blyton. She wrote a few kids book series. One of them was the “Adventure” series, where each book was called something like, “The River of Adventure,” “The Ship of Adventure,” etc. Another series she wrote was called “The Famous Five” series, and were called things like, “The Famous Five On A Treasure Island.” I bought an old hard copy of The River of Adventure at a Goodwill store on impulse, and found she had written all the rest as well. I hope this helps!
I do not believe this is it, but I will look further into it. I’m pretty sure that the books were more recent that the 40’s, but thank you so much! Everything helps.
I’m looking a book its about twins,I can’t really recall how she got to know she got to know she had a twin sister that looks exactly like her..she met the sister at the hospital

I read this back in October or November 2007 when I was working in fourth grade class.
I don’t know the title or author, just one scene. I think it was a YA paperback, and it had black and white line art illustrations. It seemed to be a fantasy/sci fi book. The scene I read involved a teenage girl, who I think was related to/descended from the villain. The villain was a baron or wizard, possibly from a time like the French Revolution. The girl was accompanied by a small talking animal and some sort of intelligent computer. She was sitting or standing in front of a couch as the baron/wizard was making a grand proclamation about her ancestry and his public execution. She said something as the wizard relives his going to the gallows/chopping block in front of her. Angered, the wizard turns on the girl. The narration was third person and states that he seemed to hypnotize her as she stood in front of the couch. He ties her hands behind her back and then makes her sit on the couch, tying her ankles. He then gags her and goes back to reenacting his execution. The girl turns to the animal/computer, which displays a question. The illustration showed her to be white and blonde, and sitting on the couch with her hands and ankles tied. She may have had a ponytail and was wearing a polo shirt, tennis shoes, and a knee-length skirt.

It is a werewolf story. The ML had a mate but she was killed by rogues. He is the alpha of a strong pack and he has a son, a little cute boy.
The FL lives in another pack and a few years back found out that her mate was the future alpha. Who threatened her to keep it a secret from others because he choose her step sister (who is not aware of anything) as his mate, because they were already dating.
She his the daughter of the beta and she has a twin brother and a gay best friend.
The ML and the FL meet one night at a bar and end up spending the night together, she leaves in the morning. they Don’t see each other for a few months (I think…).
He is asked to help with the training her pack and there they meet again.
I know it is a cliché story but I am unable to forget it and want to read it again…
So please will you help this poor soul?
Okay so in this book here are the scenes I remember:
The book takes place in a dystopian society. I believe its in the middle of a war.
In the beginning, a man is running from gunfire but he is shot several times. He still manages to escape.
A girl (man character) is exploring with her brother. They come across a body of water where they find something floating in the middle. Its covered in flies and they think its dead. They drag it out the water and realizes its an injured man/creature that is still alive.
There’s another scene where the brother and sister get separated. The girl is stopped by boy soldiers who kidnap her. She escapes by causing an explosion using one of the alcoholic beverages the soldiers were drinking.
The girl befriends the man/creature who helps her find her brother. (or maybe her brother is with her and they just need help reaching the other side of the wall which is safe and there is no war).
In one scene the girl is hanging on to the back of the man and he has to swim underwater to keep from being discovered as they sneak to the wall. She is forced to hold her breath but she struggles.
please help me find this book!
Looking for children’s book. Printed likely in the 90s. Book and pages were like sepia or tan color for an olden look. A bunny who fakes sick to stay home from school. Gets into a little mischief around the house….seem to remember perhaps a friend dropping school work off and something about the grandfather clock.
I read this book once, its about a girl in a train where she met a prince, she never knew he was a prince, then they fell in love, made love, but the next day the girl left the prince without him knowing.. time passed (not sure if it’s days or months) the prince was arranged to marry someone else, the girl was in the crowd and that’s where she found out that the man she met in train was actually a prince.. forgot what really happened but the ending was the prince ran away with the girl, left his title and all.. the title of the book was like Merrywin, Marywin, Merrywind? The book cover was like a castle or a man and woman at the top of the mountain or hill, then a train. Hope someone can help.
The holy spirit helps her escape from an pla hospital.We think it was forgive and forget. But cannot remember.

I’m looking for a book I have read before. There is a girl that goes on a trip with a class I guess and her ex is on this trip. She makes a friend with a guy who is a sorta nerd. Her ex says she went on the trip because of him though. The trip is kinda a sightseeing trip with learning about history. They had to take a train and the girl’s ex ends up either jumping or falling in front of a train (?) The girl and her new friend decide to do some investigating and think someone killed him.
I am looking for a novel,it’s about a grandmother adopting about 6-8 boys when they were young. They grown into nice men and it happens that one of them was in charge of his childhood kids and the grandmother sent her niece or cousin’s daughter to him thinking he was only taking care of one child.
looking for a comic book with a purple cover, maybe a light purple,I remember one scene where they were in a marketplace and caused a huge mess and had to run. i also remember a stand full of shrunken heads (not sure if this is a part of the book but i think so) i also remember a cyclops wearing an apron yelling HEY! another scene where they knocked over a jar of eyeballs and I think there was an animal guide (not 100% sure though) my memory is bad so i might be mixing things up but i think this is close enough
so I have been trying to find this book for a long time! It’s about a girl who was stuck in an attack hiding from soldiers but IDK, anyways I don’t think they find her and she becomes trapped. Years later a family moves in and I think the girl looked like her, she had blonde hair and she was always told what to do, I also remember she had a ghost friend and I think he had blonde hair too! The cover looks like she is standing by a tree with the ghost boy I think and maybe she’s in a black or dark blue dress. I’m not sure if this is apart from the same book but she finds an abandoned hospital of some sort and finds a girl with black hair who’s talking to her ( which was most likely a ghost) and she is wandering I think. I remember she was looking for something and she tried traveling but that’s all I can remember. I read this book in like 6th grade and I don’t really remember the name but for me, the name felt like it was called ” in-between” but it wasn’t so I’m still trying to look for it and I hope you guys can help!
Looking for the name of a book about a woman who is a member of some sort of political organization (I think) and they kidnap the governor’s (or someone similar) wife who is pregnant for ransom. The wife dies, and the woman takes the baby and moves away, raises the baby as her own. She later gets married and develops arthritis or some type of severe physical ailment and people find out the truth about her daughter.
I am looking for an illustrated children’s book about two sisters (both of which had recently married), who were bequeathed an equal amount of money.
The first sister (A) wanted to live frugally, but comfortably, so bought a modest house. The second sister (B) wanted to live impressively, so bought a lavish house.
The story takes you through the process of the sisters decking out their houses to suit their chosen tastes, with cutaway views of their houses.
Sister A chooses sensible items, and sister B chooses lavish – but the latter runs out of money to complete ‘the look’ of her lifestyle. To compensate for this, she and her husband decide to give their servants the best rooms in the house for free as payment. Sister B and her husband end up living uncomfortably in the attic, whilst sister A and her husband have plenty for themselves.
I think the book was written between 1970s-1980s.
Thanks for your help in advance!
All I know is it’s a horror set at the 4th of July about 2 children who find a creepy shack in the woods
I read a romance novel from the 90s or early 2000s. The only thing I remember about it was the main characters best friend. I’m not sure if they were nurses or training in a world war. The two women had love interests. The friend who had dark hair was dating a dark haired man. He ends up having an accident of some sort with either a machine or a vehicle. Presumed dead or she gets word that he is dead. Another character is introduced as a mechanic kinda in the background, big scarred man with a beard. The friend ends up drawn to him. Finds out it is her lover and he wanted to spare her the pain of his disfigurement…
And thats all i remember.
i am looking for a book, that i thought the name was the secret garden but i have found that book and it is not the same, this is a young girl that lost her inheritance if she married early, she married and the man immediately died but she never went back for the money. she later worked as a research assistant and then cared for a professor’s son and he called her miss honor, the professor needed someone to substitute classes for him and found he had her right in his house caring for his son
It starts off with the heroine sneaking into a guy’s house to return something (or maybe retrieve something) as a favor to a friend. Her friend is the mistress of the guy who owns the house. She is caught by a different guy (hero) who is staying there (I believe he is the guy’s brother or something) and I believe she convinces him that she is the mistress because he was drunk.
Next, she runs into him and is introduced to him at a party. He recognizes her and she recognizes him and they end up in a discussion and kissing in a dark room. I believe she is single due to the death of her husband or maybe fiancé. She is daring and willful.
I’m looking for a book. Historical romance, pretty sure it’s about pirates. i’m afraid i might be mixing two different stories ( if so i wanna find both books!) i remember the cover ( i think) being a beautiful woman, with black hair and in a blue or purplish dress, laying down i think….the beginning of the book starts with her running away from some kidnappers and she’s running along a cliff…she’s hurt or gets hurt and when she gets down to the beach area something happens i cant remember…but she wakes up on a ship where she meets the main love interest guy. she stays in his cabin room on the ship…things happen….im trying to remember more details…i know she finds everything in the room bolted down bc i think she was looking for a weapon…i think i recall an evil pirate, a secret pirate island…slaves being sold…she gets captured and is put up for sale…i think the evil pirate guy has a woman on the island her name is red something i think!! and i think he tries to make the girl walk off the plank into some sharks or something. i really cant remember and i want to find this book ( or books! lol) so bad.
The book was about a girl named Eden who just graduated from high school and started working at a grocery store
Some of the characters I remember were, Eden, Lacey (Her best friend) Toni (Her boss)

I am looking for a book that may be titled Stop, No and Don’t. I think the author is Ellie or something like that. She wrote a journal type book about how her father sexually abused her in her childhood. It is a good book but I cannot find it anywhere. Can you help, please?!?!

Thanks again, 🙂
Linda
Not a problem at all, I just love a little research project.
Happy to be of service.
All the best
I have not been able to find this book for years. It has a grey, metallic cover with 4 lego figures. It was not about legos in any capacity. I thought the title was Jcube but as it turns out it was not, but a cubicle in the book was NAMED jcube. I contacted the library i got it from. they have no records of it. I searched google. Not a trace. I looked through amazon, booksellers, I have tried everything. It is like the book never existed. The book made little sense, many pages full of random numbers or word salad, with the writing itself being about an office or cubicle. I can remember one of the arcs was that the boss or CEO got a slushie machine for the office. A valentines day one, too, i think, and there was also one with a “hug machine” that was 2 mattresses that would squish someone together in a “hug”. Near the end the main character smuggled weed. It’s not like I havent tried. I have been trying for years. trying to find it has taken a toll on me. I need to find the book. I need evidence that it was a book , that was real, that i held in my hands, because reading it was so garbled that it is hard to explain. Half of the book was word salad.
I read this murder mystery but I didn’t finish and it’s killing me and now I can’t remember the title it’s about a female lawyer who was asked to work where her mum lived her grandma raised her then there’s this sheriff that keeps flirting with her I think she likes him and there’s also a rich family she suspects plus she’s very good looking and hot and she’s looking for her mothers killer and yes her mum is cremated
The Westing Game?
There’s this book I read in Middle School, I believe it is about a guy and his friends (can’t remember their age, I want to say they were young adults around college age) who take a plane ride to go on some kind of trip and after something happens (Either the main protagonist fell asleep or the plane crashes) the Main Protagonist wakes up naked and separated from his friends in a strange forest that seems otherworldly, the Main Protagonist must find his friends and try to survive, later on his finds some of them and they create clothes for him out of some kind of plant fiber.
I remember towards the end the group tries to leave the woods and cross some chasm but are beset by large monsters, one of which ends up killing a member of the group, but they keep pushing forward, I can’t remember much about the end but in the last chapter the main protagonist believes he and his friends had been shrunken down to the size of bugs and the creatures they were fighting were just regular animals and insects and the strange woods were actually grass in a local park (I also cannot remember if the events really happened or if it was all a dream)
But at the end the protagonist returns to a local park and attempts to see if he can smell burning wood as if he is trying to find the group’s campsite.
Title: ?
Author: ?
Plot: A young girl (whom I believe was named Tunes, named after her grandfather) was falsely accused of murder. Her best friend, the narrator, is a young boy who attempts to help her escape the police because he thinks she’s innocent. The novel takes place in one of the southern states in the US, has somewhat of a discriminatory lining to it towards African Americans.
it is about a boy having a crush and trying to get with the girl, her name is eve or ava, and he meets a boy who helps him with a set of rules to be able to date the girl. Him and the girl are in an art class making a collage project. the girl is blonde and has a boyfriend, the boyfriend is mean and a bully, the main character though is kind of a nerd. the books colour was pink with the girl on the cover.
This book is about a doctor who is shot, but survives, during the kidnapping of his baby girl. He may work with doctors without borders. His best friend, an attorney, cannot be trusted.
This book is written by a woman (Canadian I think) who spends six months of the year travelling, six months working, six months travelling etc. I think part of her travels are in Africa. However I can’t remember the title or who it’s by!
There was this book about a woman who worked at an art gallery. There were ongoing murders in the town she worked in, and I think the bodies were found in a body of water next to the gallery (a lake or a harbor, maybe?). A detective visited the town, and they met up in the gallery. I think there was a fire in her apartment at some point in the book as well.
I would love it if anyone knows the book title (especially with that poor description I gave) <3
I’m not sure what it is, but when you find it, PLEASE tell me the name of it because I NEED to read that! (If you can’t tell, I love murder mysteries… lol)
Sure! I LOVE them too. It might be a book by Sarah Blake, but I’m still not sure.
Years back I read a book that was perfect, a book I have tried to remember the title but it’s failed me over and over again……..
A lady is bestowed inheritance from an old man with a big family that was never related to her at all. (don’t remember reason why that happened) but the family sons and daughters plot and steal it from her and throw her on the streets with her young brother……she works hard little by little plotting her come back, builds a big empire again and does all she can to reclaim what was given to her. I remember she was in love with one of the sons. I want to own this book again anyone that has read something similar help me out please.
Thank you
So years and years ago I picked up a comic- manga type book from my elementary school library and just remembered about it now. I remember it having a young boy who was a mail man as the main character. There was also another character introduced who had scarves covering his face so you could only see his eyes. One big thing I remember from this character was that he loved birds and birds would always be around him. The last thing I remember is the ending. It turns out that the bird guy is actually a robot that was ment to destroy the world. It was definitely a big twist that was very sudden and thats when the boon ended. I have no clue if there are more books after but the book ended so fast that I would think that it had a sequel. I cannot remember the author or title and it has been bugging me for awhile.
(I had searched in Google and asked friends if they knew but I still couldn’t find a title…)
Hi All, There is a female author who wrote a number of books with titles starting with “The cat that . . “, “The man who . . .” and “The girl who . . .”. For the life of me I cannot find anything on these titles. Any help will be dearly appreciated.
This probably isn’t it but Lilian Jackson Braun wrote a bunch of “the cat who….” books.
Thanks Kira, I think you may be right about this one, and it makes this even more relevant. This is an incredibly versatile cat: The cat who could read backwards, The cat who ate Danish, The cat who knew Shakespeare and finally The cat who killed Lilian Jackson Braun. Why I was interested: a guy I know claims that his cat walked over his keyboard and inadvertently sent the link of a horrific porn site to the directors of an organisation he belongs to. The cat also, by stepping on just the right keys caused him to lose 1000s on his stock trade program!
Now imagine titles like The cat who watched porn or The cat who traded on the stock exchange!
Wow. Imagine that. Well, I’m happy I could help
I am looking for a book that was published in the 70s or 80s. I was a book about ways of keeping your house clean. It was pretty funny.. The part i remember is where she talks about how her sisters house was always tidy even first thing in the morning but hers wasnt and one day a visitor rang her doorbell and she hid under the table because her house was so cluttered.. I think the cover had a picture of a women maybe with curlers in her hair but im not sure.. It was a very funny book … They also had file cards with when days, weekly, monthly etc. you could buy along with the book.. I hope this helps.. Thank you.
Could be either the Flylady books, or maybe the side tracked sisters. Both are in a similar vein.
Hope this helps!

Back when I was a 7th grader (I’m a junior in high school now) I had an entire stack of books and I particularly remember one book. It was about a young teenager who felt ugly and at a carnival she meets a lady who draws her and in the morning she wakes up and she’s extremely beautiful and she got to get with the guy she likes. She becomes popular but she ends up changing from the person she used to be. I remember a few scenes. One being she shoved her face in pie so her mom won’t notice her transformation and the other being she turns back to her normal self and she asks the boy if she looks different and he says “You look more beautiful than you ever have” or something like that. SOMEONE PLZ HELPPPP!!!
I am looking for a book i read a year or two ago that is about a girl who works/was at a bar and meets a famous soccer player (she doesnt know he’s famous.) They’re photo is taken by paparazzi which leads to his manager saying that he can no longer be pictured as that type of person and therefore has to marry this girl. She has to sign a contract and he buys a house for them. They also end up falling in love in the end. I remember his mom or dad is dead and also her ex is crazy and attacks her in their home.
Ok I’ve been looking for this book for years but no one knows it…
The plot is about a girl who’s on a ship, and she gets mad at her dad and falls off the boat. She gets stranded on an island full of broken toys and machines. I’m not sure but I think it might be a magic island, because she’ll freeze(like not with cold, but she’ll stop moving) if she doesn’t get off the island in one/two days. She makes friends with everyone on the island, including a broken radio who they call the “yoo doo creature” because the only thing it can say is “yoo doo”. I think she spends the night, but she gets kidnapped while she’s sleeping by a family who’s jealous of her for some reason. I think this family was called the domino family??? There’s also a pine tree on the island, named Pine, who when the other machines realize the girl’s missing, points them in the right direction to find where the domino family are hiding her. Pine ends up dying, as there’s a lightning storm that splits him in half. The girl is already slowing down in her movements when they try to make her escape from the island, but she eventually makes it back to her father.

I’ve been looking for a book I read around 2015. It’s about these kids who’ve never met each other before but get this opportunity to go to an island/facility place. The book is narrated from the perspective of a 12-16 year old boy but I don’t remember his name. When he gets to this place though, he can sense something is just off. As the story progresses, he realizes that he and the other kids are part of this experiment to change their minds/brains to famous smart people like Einstein, Newton, etc. I can’t remember why the adults running the facility are trying to do this but there was this one kid who actually wanted his brain changed. The main character and the other kids try to escape and they come to this swampy forest place. I don’t remember much else of the chase through the swamp but the doctor who was trying to preform the procedures gets eaten by a crocodile. I’m pretty sure another adult is found dead in a shack in the swamp but I don’t know. If anyone knows the title of this book or any other details then please comment!!

(I’m not 100% if I’m right but this is all that I remember.) I’m looking for a book with two girls, I’m pretty sure are southern. One of them wore a blue dress and the other one wore a yellow dress. I read it in second grade and it was a level K. The two girls were sisters and one of them was named Maybelle. I don’t remember if it was a book series or not but some of the plots I do remember from the book was that, Maybelle and her sister got lost while riding around in a carriage. Another plot I remember is where they had to perform in front of people, but the performance was bad so they got tomatos thrown at them. I also think the cover of the book was yellow. I hope this is specific enough!

When the girl moves in with the chef the 3 of them become lovers. Wealthy guy is in an accident and family won’t them see him or he doesn’t doesn’t want to see the 2 of them.

Her name is Gemma,a teacher that travelled to Italy with one of her students,I think Mary,whose mother was not available at the time.While she was having a walk with Mary a car almost ran her over,turns out the owner of the cacar was a wealthy and famous artist,he does a lot of sculpting,paints etc.At the long run they got married separated and United again.i’ve read it about 9 years ago,please help ,I’ve searched everywhere for it
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.

Thank you so much
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
maybe the greenwitch part of the dark is rising series by susan cooper.
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 🙂
Omg I know this book but I too do not remember the title or the name of the author. All I remember is that it had a greenish cover and two people (a man and a woman) If you do find it, please tell me too. I really loved this book
wait this is similar to the book I’m looking for, does the girl and the ghost have blond hair? was the girl controlled by her mother? did a girl die in a room or attic trying to hide from bad men? if so I am also looking for that book!!!!
Oh my gosh… That’s it! That’s the book! I can’t believe we can literally name everything that happens in that book but not the name. I’m heartbroken. I hope someone knows the name.
Idk if this will help too but the title I think, is one word
ok so i found the first book i was looking for its called ” The girl in the locked room” i hope this helps although I’m still trying to find the other book when the girl has a ghost friend and all that in my other comment.
I’m not sure what book you are looking for… but there is a book called Circle of Secrets where a girl has a ghost friend! Sorry if this was no help whatsoever.

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
a to z mysteries maybe?
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

The Naturals by Jennifer Lynn Barnes?
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. At a certain point of day, they had to use the window shaders so people couldn’t see the child. I’m pretty sure his mom taught him school. But one day he tried to run away and he ran to his neighbors and I’m pretty sure he got caught, and the police got called on him even though his father was a policeman which made people suspicious of him. They decided to make the kid have a fake id and run away. Please help me find this book it was so interesting. Thank you.

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.

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 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…

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.

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.

One of the daughters Posey drowned while swimming the English Channel.

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.

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’m looking for a book about homeless teens and one of them goes to a homeless shelter. Another one gets beat up by a worker at the library for getting caught washing themselves with a friend in the bathroom
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.

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’m pretty sure I read this. Could it be Cheaper by the Dozen? Or a sequel to it? The family in those books had 12 kids, and were set around the turn of the century, although I think the book was probably published in the forties or fifties.

I’m looking for a book called “the shimmering glass” or “Shimmering glass” by black something. It’s a teenage fantasy novel. The plot goes like ” A 16-year-old girl is looking for her father in London”
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.
I read the first chapter on Facebook the book is about a female werewolf who was a twin and the twin die and she was blamed for it and everyone was nasty to her she got to clean for everyone in the pack.

I’m looking for a Christmas book I read a couple of years ago that is based around the early 2000s about a woman, who is pregnant, and her husband and they go to visit their family for an Amish Christmas and I don’t remember much but towards the end she ends up having her baby in a barn for some reason. I remember it had a blue cover and was a novel.
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. There was a lot going on in the middle of the story, but I remember them meeting each other when the girl (became an officer) had an accident and the guy was a doctor who had to operate her. 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.

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!
Called ” shatter me ” by tahere mafi
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.
I need to know the title of the book and the name of the author. I think it was written by a Nigerian author

The book I am looking for is about a girl who lives in a small town and is gay. Her mom found out and didn’t support. 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.

Hey! 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… That’s George”.. George is described to have a red baseball cap and old dirty clothes.
Any help would be great thankyou!!!
I recognise this poem from my childhood. Could it be a Spike Milligan poem?
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!

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

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.

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 finds clues after clues which leads to her sister’s death and she was also murdered not long ago.

okay in trying to give as much as i can because i have been looking since forever. this is a book i read in like fifth grade which would be like 2016/2017 and it stated by the main character waking up from her dad because she has to go to ex best friends funeral who died in a drive by shooting in her own house. she sees a guy she doesn’t recognize but she ignores it. a little while later he starts telling her stuff and she’s getting clues and figuring out she was murdered and not killed by the drive by. the main character goes swimming and she almost drowned because she thinks seaweed is her best friends hair and the guy from earlier saves her. the main character starts dating this guy and his brother acts weird around her. eventually finds out the guy she’s dating is mentally ill and he killed her best friend and the brother protected him by making it look like a drive by and a gang did it. her boyfriend takes her to an abandoned house and tried lighting it on fire and as she’s fighting back she cuts herself or something and before they die the brother and the guy from earlier saves them both. sorry i’m horrible at explaining
A few years back I read a book from the library I really loved, would like to find it again, a remember a few things, how do I go about it?
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!

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 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.

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 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.

Then she has a date with Luke or whatever his name is but they got a call and they have to rescue someone.

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.

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.

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.

hi, want to know about mills and boon book where heroine is a gym instructor and come to attend her best friends wedding who is sister of her estranged husband.It is brother series.
It is a children’s book, it adults like it too.
It has the word “animal” in the title.
I think a partial theme is the strange looking animal goes walking in a garden
commenting on various statues it sees there.
The book I am trying to locate is a saga that takes place after the civil war. Fancy’s Louisiana plantation is in ruins and one of her beloved slaves takes young 5 year old fancy under his wing and heads to California. They perform in circus acts along the way… Once in California, they join the gold rush. Meeting up with two brothers ones name is chance. Both brothers fall in love with her. Of course there is much more, but this is the best that I can remember.

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.
Historical Romance “Katherine” passed over for sister, she is left disgraced with few options. Can’t remember title or author
there was a boy he had a sister and his uncle(or grandfather, I don’t really remember ) gave him a bottle and he has to give other people three wishes, then I think he has to pass on the bottle to his son.
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.
Thanks
This book was recommended by Amazon for my kindle, I lost the page. The beginning was about a girl locked up in a cage she was pregnant at only 16. 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.

Please help me find this book:
There is this girl who when she was little her mom attempted to drown her and her twin brother in the kitchen sink. She killed her brother but was caught before she could kill her. Her mom was sent to an asylum and she was left alone with her father who always worked. I’m also pretty sure her best friend lived next door and there was this one scene where they painted their nails. At the end of the book the girl overcomes her fear and goes to visit her mom.
I’ve been looking for this forever so anything would help. I’m also pretty sure the cover was orange and the author was a female.

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.
Desperate to find a book i read many years ago. Twin boys separated young, one with cerebral palsy put into a mental hospital, healthy twin told his brother was dead. Find each other late in life again. Non fiction.
I had to read this book as part of a Human Relations class. It was about how and why african-americans talk the way they do. The title of the book was “Why do they have to talk like that”
Hello there,I’m trying to find an 80’s paperback (suspense/thriller) that had on its cover a beautiful blond woman tied to a chair while a creepy man gloats over her! I don’t know what the name of the book was,I just remember the book cover and how lovely the damsel in distress looked! Any help would be great! Thank you!
this sounds similar to Boxing Helena – but all I can find is info about the movie & cant find if it was an actual book or not – Sherilyn Fenn & Bill Paxton – even if not a book, this was still a good yet disturbing movie about infatuation going very wrong! It was early 90s – wiki & imbd has alot of info on it – but how you describe the woman on the cover with the man looking at her reminds me of Boxing Helena, sorry I couldn’t be more help!
Thank you for the info….now at least I have an idea! I remember the woman was wearing a white shirt/blouse in the novel!
