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 where boy has to go through a multiple of games to get back home. One game I remember was when he was put in the very game he had made. Something about chocolate. That’s all I can remember. I read this book in my childhood probably around the early 2000’s.
Looking for the name or author of book I read in early 90s. Set in a small KS town group of teens belonging to a religious sect try to stop friend from going away to college using power of their minds. Friend has accident same night and kills girlfriend.
I am searching for a book with a plot about a girl who befriends a homeless boy after meeting him outside of the café where she likes to draw. The boy is nice in the beginning but becomes super toxic, he even burns her cat. also, there is this other homeless girl that’s a lot younger the boy beats her up so badly that she had to go to the hospital.
I’m looking for a book from earlier than 2007 about a teenager who moves to a new school. She becomes friends with a group of friends and finds out that they are covering up the accidental death of their friend after they fell from a cliff/down a hill.
Hi! I’m looking for a YA book in which the main character has cut out pictures of fancy jewelry from a catalog and keeps it in a shoebox. That is one of the things she saves when her house is on fire. Unfortunately, that’s all I remember. Possibly by M.E Kerr?
It’s not a lot to go on, but perhaps someone has read this book?
This is a huge, long shot because I do not remember very much about the book. I read it once or twice in 2006. One of the main characters was a fairy, male, and had red hair. The book used the spelling faerie, not fairy. I think there was a second main character who was female. I wish I could remember more of the book because I remember I really enjoyed reading it, and I even wrote an essay about it, but for the life of me all I can remember is the male faerie with red hair.
I think occasionally the female character became frustrated with the faerie because he did not understand human interactions.
I am hoping someone has a guess. Even if it is not the same book, whichever one comes to mind for you may give me a good lead. It is driving me nuts that I cannot remember more about this book I liked enough to write an essay about it.
Hello,
I’m looking for a book where a young lawyer who just graduated gets framed by a gansta leader on her first day of work and gets fired, she then makes her own firm and falls in love with a lawyer who is already married and running for mayor and has a child with him, he then leaves her and she falls a the gangsta leader that framed her.
I read this book as a child / early teen in the late 1970s. The hardcover novel was older though, perhaps 1960s or 1950s. Maybe even older. The dustjacket had a Victorian house on it and in the front of the house was a large tree with a comedy / tragedy mask pinned to it with a hat pin. The color of the dustjacket was green and white. I don’t remember many details but there was a child ( a girl, I think ) who was staying with the family in the large Victorian house after her mother had been murdered with a hat pin. Her mother may have been a performer or actress and she may have been murdered by her husband. The family is doing their best to hide the child while the police try to figure out who murdered her mother.
Want to find a book about civil rights (possibly in California). May be non fiction. Author was journalist. Read from college library.
There is a book with witches, but not typical “cackling with black pointy hat and crooked nose” type of witches. Modern day witches that blend in with society. The number of witches being born has been dwindling and nobody knows why, you learn at the end that these tiny little spirits whisper into the ears of babies and this is what gives them powers, and the villian of the story found a recipe to silence these spirits, thus preventing them from being able to create new witches. A girl, the main character, is on a train and is confused by a woman sitting nearby who sounded like she had been writting in a crossword puzzle for a while but her page turned out to be completely blank, later she learns the woman was a witch using invisible ink. Everyone is searching for a special book that contains a very dangerous spell, a page is missing from the book, the main “evil” witch has a sister who has no powers, is just a regular vanilla human. They get their hands on the page that was ripped out of the book that contains a game on one side of the paper, and a recipe on the other. The human sister tells her witch sister that the game will make her all powerful if she plays it, while really the “dangerous” part of the page was really the recipe that silenced the spirits.
The main character was in a library and was witnessed doing something magical by a librarian, so she removed the memory of the incedent from the librarians mind and replaced it with an old memory found in a jar. Turns out the librarian was the evil human sister, and the memory she was given was the memory of the person who wrote or removed the recipe page from the book, so she knew the recipe without needing to find the book.
The evil witch sister gets the book with the missing page and tries to regrow the page with a potion, but the page grows back completely blank.
The game that is played is like pick-up-sticks or something like that.
There is a group of witches living in a big house together. There is a cat or pet that use to be human but they couldn’t figure out how to turn the cat back into a person.
Looking for a book. Might be mixing books up in my mind… i remember a boy in the forest, i think he traveled from another world or parallel universe through a portal or a square doorway? He can read minds, his first interaction in our world was with a deer, he saved the deer from a hunter, the hunter sees the kid and tries to find him maybe? The kid leaves the forrest and finds a family that takes him in. There is more than one kid, but one of the kids is a girl, she discovers he can read minds because hh always passed food at the dinner table before anyone can ask him to. He is in danger from something, i think its the hunter? Or maybe its the police?

Turns out the second part with the kid untying a not is maniac magee and not related to the book im searching for

my daughter was about 8 years old in 2 or 3 grade. The book was a gentle little tale and there was a character in it

said that it was. She was surprised that I knew the book.
female leads name was like Parker
or something and the guy had like an Italian name and
in the beginning of the book she’s driving to a pool and

Another girl who might be the killer’s first victim. Her initials were on the back of the locket.

In the compartment they live in there’s a group of werewolves. The main vampire sends her to I believe California where she is meant to stay until it is safe for her to return to the vampire in which she loves. One of the werewolves gives her something to give to their alpha when she gets there. At the place where she is told to stay she finds something she did not expect. Basically zombies and she made a deal with someone saying she’d figure out where they were there for. Uncovering all the little details.
I’m trying to find the best Christmas book I’ve seen. We had this book about 5 years ago but it would have been purchased at least 10 years ago.
It was hard cover, mostly red on the cover. It was a chronicle of all things Christmas and Santa. It had thick pages full of pull out pictures and items you could remove and read. My kids loved the Santa’s workshop double opening pages, so much to learn.
It told us about all the reindeer and the magic of the sleigh. Every page full of magic and wonder.
We lost it in a move we are all a bit devastated about it.
There are a series of books with a similar look and feel, called ology books. Pirateology, dragonology, fairy ology, Egyptology….
Can anyone help?

Found it!! Possessed by Tana Stone
Romance/Second chance/suspense When a teenage girl gets pregnant her father sends her away to have the baby, then tells her the baby is stillborn.
Book Summary: The book starts with a teenage girl in a hospital while in labor on a stormy night. her father insists that she be heavily sedated. As the baby is born she hears it crying, but her father and doctor and nurse all tell her the baby was stillborn. Many years later she returns to her hometown to find out her daughter is alive. The teenage girl’s father had given the child to her biological dad, telling him that the mother wanted nothing to do with the baby. The baby girl was then raised by her dad and possibly her grandmother. When the biological mother finds out her daughter is alive, she then begins the process of earning her daughter’s trust while getting to know her. Her relationship with the girl’s dad begins to rekindle.
Here are some maybe facts (little tidbits of memory that may or may not be part of the story, but sound kind-of right):
The teenage girl’s father was a preacher/deacon, someone important in the community.
A headstone was placed for the baby in the cemetary of her hometown.
When she returns to her hometown, someone is trying to kill her to keep their secret.
I read this book sometime in the last 10 (2012-2020) years, but I don’t remember if it was a current release or not.

I read a science fiction book, about 10 or 15 years ago and I read so much the details all flow together. I’ll give you the details, that I believe are accurate. The book was an “I found a starship type book”. The main character was jogging a hillside trail and he noticed a shiny spot and stopped to rub it. He enlarged the spot and it revealed a door, so he went inside. The door led to the inside of a spaceship or a shuttle, and the shuttle finished uncovering itself, and took him to the mothership. The mothership was on the Moon or an asteroid, and was parked there to make repair bays for the ship to self repair heavy battle damage. The crew looked human except for pointed ears and med bay quickly fixed them to look human, they were less than 100 crew members left. Since they believed repairs would take 150 to 250 years to complete, the crew went to earth until repairs were complete. That, was about 5500 years ago, with no contact. The AI contacted their base about the surprise battle and was updated with technological updates for the ship and approval to do the updated, so if any crew members or ancestors showed up the ship would be prepared. That, had been 3000 years ago, so the AI was bring the guy that found her to the mother ship to make him captain. When, he jogged by on weekends the AI hacked his phone and did a deep background check, which he passed with high marks. There is much more to the story, but it seemed to have a little wish fulfillment in it also, which involved optimizing his mind and body and sleep learning. There also seemed to be some world building, in that space fleets and space bases were built.
I cannot remember if the book was written by Sandra brown or Susan Elizabeth Philips? The girl was trailer trash from a small town. There was a fire at the beginning when her family was run out of town. The hero saw her nakedness in silhouette.
She returned years later a successful woman. the hero tried to run her out of town again but later fell for her

“There is no reason why the human body should not last 120 years.” This may be the first sentence in chapter 1. I read this in 1980 to 1985 so the copyright is in or before that date range.

I’m looking for a book I read years ago about a young woman coming home after a party and gets news that the pilot husband she thought had been killed is a newly released prisoner or war. She is told by her military father that she has to go to him at a hospital in Hawaii where he refuses to see her but she stays anyway. I can’t remember the title or author.
I am looking for a book that I read in the early 1980’s. It was a Daw Books yellow spine Sci-Fi book. The book was about a character that had some kind of mutation, or mutant ability, deformity, or power (not XMen). So, the character is dumped on a hostile planet far from Earth along with any other mutated person from Earth or their home world. I believe that the title included the word “Mutant” or a synonym of it, and possibly “Planet” or “World”. It was most likely older than the early to mid 80’s time frame that I read it. I keep thinking it was a fairly well know author like Gordon R Dickson, or C.J. Cherryh, but I can’t find any books that match it the list of popular authors. Any insights would help, Thanks!
I looking for a book that was published I believe in 2002 – with a collection of short stories written by elementary school students.

im looking for a book, where there’s a industrial city that is divided from the ”clean” one, like poor people vs. rich ones, and there’s a girl that has a friend and he provides her with pre-rolls, she smokes and investigates how to get into the city that is divided by some sort of a wall. i remember the ”melancholic colours”, that were following me throughout the book and i think it was also raining, when she sat on the bed and looked out, while thinking of a plan.
it’s been years, and that’s all i can remember. Not sure if it’s a sci fi book or something else, but if anyone has any idea, i would highly appreciate it! 🙂
I think the book you are looking for is:

I haven’t read the book since I was in middle school, so ten years ago. It’s a book about a girl (I think) who dreams of her friends dying and I think those are premonitions. From what I can remember, it had a spooky feel. The book cover was a girl wearing a white night mask and bloody tears running down her face.

I’m looking for a book I think I read it on wattpad but they discontinued it because it was getting published so they wanted all rights. Either way the title is either “run bird run” or “run run run” I can’t remember but its a horror book where I can vaguely remember a man/boy getting kidnapped buy some people he tried escaping but failed I think and they ended up putting him in a facility that looked like the out doors (like the woods, long stretch of land with streams flowing etc) but their are creatures trying to kill him and he found other people that were locked in there and joined them to survive. The monsters were self aware of course because at one point in the book they showed where the humans were running away from the beast but they gave up one of their own in exchange for the beast leaving them alone (the leader did this) but the man/boy didn’t know that they did this to survive so he hid with the rest of the others but one the beast looked in their direction and didn’t attack which is how he picked up on them using their members as sacrifices to survive. I really hope to find this book, I was absolutely entranced in it.
Book on tape from a library. True story about a man that was a personal trainer turned P.E. Teacher in a town outside of Chicago. He used the Polar Heart Rate monitor on his students during P.E. class discovering the fact that some kids just walked to achieve the same heart rate percentage as kids that would run. One sentence I remember is. “As long as the kids maintained a heart rate of 60% then the students got an A in class”. He was also the most popular PE teacher at the school. I think the book was a biography. I listened to book between 2005 – 2009. Can you help me find this book?

I read a book in high school about a young girl (I think a princess or a dukes daughter) who loves with her father. I believe her mother had died and she was lonely. She talked to a man using a magic chalice or goblet at a fountain in secret. I don’t think she was ever quite able to see his face. Fast forward her father says she has to marry. She turns away all of the suiters then one day her father enemy from a dark land across the sea comes to ask for her hand and she immediately says yes knowing it’s the man even though her father doesn’t want her to. They get married seem to be madly in love but it turns sour. I think her father tried to take her back or something. Her husband kills her father and eventually she realizes he was never in love with her but instead was using her as an excuse to kill her father and steal from him etc. I can’t remember the name though
Looking for a book I found many years ago that was probably written in the early 70’s. I used to think it was called; The Exorcist, like the title of the film. And it’s plot I am not really clear on, but there was a woman who is being held by this guy who (I think,) is a Satanist? He has her hypnotized so she is unable to leave the building or apartment and I think he’s holding her as a sort of concubine/sex slave… I remember reading it as a teen and it was a heavy, hardcover book by a major publisher as I recall?
Help? Anyone?
Hi I’m looking for a book I read back in the early 1990s when I was a little girl. It’s a romance but can’t recall much, can’t recall the author nor the names of the heroine or the hero.
However, I can remember a little bit such as there were 2 sisters. The elder sister was engaged to be married to the hero. Then there was also the little sister who became the heroine. The elder sister died, so the little sister ended up marrying the elder sister’s fiance or husband (I.e. can’t recall whether he married the elder sister before she died or maybe not). Anyways I think the little sister was quite naughty and disaster prone or something like that while the older sister was genteel. Although at the end of the book, not sure but I think the heroine was kidnapped and the hero found her again, then he realized he’s in love with her and that she was pregnant. Appreciate any help on this book, thanks.

I cannot remember the title of this book but it contained multiple stories.
One of the stories was about a girl with Violet eyes and a guy that loved her. He went home with her and was either hypnotized or trapped by her family. The last part of the story his father arrives and the guy has aged many years and is working on a lawn mower, the father doesn’t recognize his son if I remover correctly.
Another one of the stories was about a wooden box, that another guy was obsessed with the box. The box was warm and occasionally made sounds and he died with it in his arms.
There was another story about a guy that worked at a women’s abuse shelter, and one day one of the ladies ex-husband showed up and was smashing up his car so he went outside and beat the shit out of him.

There was a movie from this book starring Charles Bronson
You might have better luck on IMDb website. Do a search by actor and there will be a section with all their movies/tv appearances that you can click on each one to get more information about the movie. Many times if movie was based on a book, will be available in movie details page under ‘Writers’ (will state ‘screenplay’ or ‘novel by’).
Book purchased in Perth Western Australia in 1968 where a Korean War Veteran confronted a group of deer hunters who would kidnap hitch hikers, set them loose in the forest and hunt them down. The hero who knew the perpetrators used his
training to track down each man and eliminate.
This sounds like a movie I saw, and really enjoyed, from 1974. It stars Cornelia Sharpe and Peter Fonda, (It’s hard to find and to my knowledge has never been released on blu-ray, only VHS & DVD. Probably out of print too.) The movie is about a young female, (Cornelia Sharpe) Whose having an affair with a slightly older married man. Peter Fonda and a group of his friends, (all Vietnam veterans) do an annual hunt of human beings, having returned form Vietnam and are bored with hunting animals after killing humans during the war. They abduct the couple, (they choose couples so they can have fun with the female before sending the pair out to be hunted like animals.) and the inevitable happens. The twist comes in the form of actor William Holden, who plays the father of a young girl they had hunted down a few years before, (Not sure if he is a former Korean Ware vet as you mentioned from the book) and has tracked the men down, and ready for revenge. The movie Open Season had an alternate name also. And the movie was based on the book; The All-Americans! Which might be the book you are looking for! Good luck!
The book I’m looking for was about a girl, around high school or middle school, who I think liked to draw or paint. There would be times in the book where she would talk to an older version of herself. Maybe around 20-40 years old version. She would also see a you get version of her self sometimes. I can’t remember that author or the title but this is all I could remember.
I’m in search of a book I read in high-school, I can’t remember the author and the name is Stargazer, or at least that’s the title I remember. The cover had a guy with white hair and dark clothing with the main character next to him. She had short brown hair and similar clothing as well. The story starts with her being in her room and thinking about her dating life. Later she wakes up and hops out of a dream pod to go home. But then further in she then finds that she switched her dream world with reality because she had went into the pod so often she became addicted. That changed when she met the love of her life and he made her realize she wasn’t in her dream world.
It’s a book about a girl Whose parents sell her into marriage. At the marriage she was told that she was not permitted to look at her husband, she peeked anyway and saw he was too young for marriage and very sick. Later she is told that they only got him married so they have enough money from the bride’s parents so they could get him a doctor. The boy dies soon after and his parents leave the girl behind at a city, she gets taken to a foster home (I think) and meets a new boy, I think he asked her to meet him at a river where she first met him. I did not finish the book, that’s the farthest I got, that’s why I want the title. ( It was a library book, I had to return it). Oh, and on the way to the marriage she thought about getting out of the vehicle he was in because she saw a path that would lead her home. Small detail, but all details can be important.

I am looking for a childhood pop-up book from the 90s – the cover was brown and landscape with a picture of a toy or antique store – story was about a toy soldier and a ballerina in a toy or antique shop. I remember a scene where the soldier is lying in the snow, I think he may have one leg. I used to love this pop-up book and would like to find this if anyone can help?
That’s going to be some version of “The Tin Soldier” which is from Grimm’s Fairy Tales. Other titles are “The Steadfast Tin Solider” commonly and “The Brave Tin Soldier”.

Hi me again, since no one saw my last post im going to make it again. This book im looking for is about a girl searching for something. The details I can remember about this book are very few, but basically, there is a girl. She has blonde hair, maybe a quiet personality wears clothes from maybe the 1900’s or so, and she has a ghost friend whos a boy. I know he has been dead for a long time and they are always hanging out, they also talk a lot. The only part I can really remember where they were was near a lake and a tree. If I can also remember correctly they go to a town and find something that the girl needed to locate a certain person, not sure if this was part of the same book but another character was added into the story, it was a boy and im 100% sure he was also looking for something too. That’s all I can remember but if anyone knows this book or knows anything similar please comment and let me know!!!! I’ll be back soon because I need to find this book, I loved the plot so much and I would hate to forget about this book. I would love to read it again someday…

I’m looking for a book I read in middle school about a set of twins, a girl and a boy, who are really close and there is this whole school thing for their grade where there is 2 teams and they play games to compete and see what team is better. The twins end up being the team captains for different teams and have to compete against each other. I think the cover was blue but not for sure.
So the book I’m looking for is about twins. A boy and a girl. I forgot how but they discover that one of them is the chosen one and everyone thinks it’s the boy because of course they do but it ended up being the girl all along and no one knew not even the brother until around the end of the book when they fight the great evil. I think there’s two books and at the end of the second book she has to died to save everyone but she transfer her subconscious into the brothers mind. The book cover at the time had two kids running towards this fire like that thing but the art work was weird. One was holding a sword which becomes vital in the first book. Speaking of which in scene that stuck out to me is this scene where the boy is mind control by the evil and is marching with other mind controlled people (maybe kids) and the girl tries to snap him out of it but he isn’t responding so she stands in front of the boy where he has started swinging his sword and slashing motions the girl sends one final thought telepathically to him as his final slash reaches her and he snaps out of it last minute.
It’s a colored comic about a black haired witch girl who was raised by her grandmother. Next door to them was a family of werewolves. At one point she has to move back in with her father, but he isn’t really happy about her and I think about her being a witch. So in the city she lives there now but the oldest sons of the werewolf family, follow her all in different professions. After that not sure, except one who was blacked hair male who I think falls in love with the witch. After that i don’t remember except one part where she goes to find a rare flower and she fell in the pit, and the black haired werewolf save her. That’s all I remember.

Okay i read this book back in 6-7 grade and i couldn’t out what it was. So basically the book was mainly about a girl who was trying to find something, i remember her being described as blonde, kind of quiet, always wore neat outfits (this probably took black back in the 90s or 70s. She was friends with a ghostboy and they always talked near a lake or river, he was probably from the 60s or 70s when he died but his ghost was a child of the girls age.

Okay i read this book back in 6-7 grade and i couldn’t out what it was. So basically the book was mainly about a girl who was trying to find something, i remember her being described as blonde, kind of quiet, always wore neat outfits (this probably took black back in the 90s or 70s. She was friends with a ghostboy and they always talked near a lake or river, he was probably from the 60s or 70s when he died but his ghost was a child of the girls age. He was also blonde, he wore old timey clothes. The last thing i remember was how they both traveled to go to the place where she was finding something. The book cover looked like the girl was standing in front of a big tree with her hands crossed, i think the title was one big word but i couldnt remember, if anyone can help me find this book i would very much appreciate it!!!!!!
I read this book in middle school. It was definitely more of a childrens fiction book. It was about a young girl being kidnapped by a man who claimed to be a famous girls father. He convinced the main character to go to his house, and slipped a drug in her Coke to make her fall unconscious. The book is about her experiences, as well as the people who were close to her and how they were coping with her being missing. Could someone please help? I have been trying to find this book for years!
Looking for the title of an alien scify adult romance book i have once read published around early 2000. Im not sure if i remember all the details correctly but its part if a book series the 1st series is about a girl who fell from a high place and accidentally activated some kind of a portal device and she was transported to an alien planet. I think she was transported somewhere in a marshland and was picked up by some sort of bubble im not sure, however wherever she fell its full of pinky stuff that stuck to her skin and somehow a group of aliens picked her up thinking she was some sick animal and that her skin was falling off so they put her in some kind of an alien high tech enclosed portable machine to heal her and when she woke up she had longer hair, she look more beautiful and i think she became younger, all in all she look awesome and different from what she originally look. The portable machine just healed all anomalies in her body so if she was sick, that disease was removed, if she is fat, all the extra fats are removed, if she was bald, her original and natural hair will appear without any coloring added, basically it made her body a whole lot better and made it look like as it should look like originally if the body was taken cared off in the 1st place. I think she was sick in the first place.So the aliens later found out she is not an animal and upon investigation found out that the alien’s earlier ancestors travel beyond the stars for research purposes and left behind some sort of gps portable teleportation device which was activated somehow by the woman. I think it was through her bloid when she accidentally fell off and found the device. So along the other series, these alien men decided to use the device to find women of their own (later series) and these women who became part of their lives decided to set some online website to hook them up with the alien guys and they were even offering some vacation package to sweeten the deal (which is basically a vacation to the alien’s homeworld and if the women are not interested, they return the women without any memories of the aliens). One of the series had the story of a police woman investigating the disappearance of said women and in the end came to the alien’s homeworld accidentally and found an alien of her own. In a long run, the earth became inhabitable but that was in a later series and the aliens decided to make their appearance to help with the restoration of the humans and its planet and revealed their long interaction of Earth all these years. I tried Restoree by Anne McCaffrey and The Color of Distance by Amy Thomson But it’s not the same book. Anyone who knows, please do help.
Very long shot, I read a book about two boys traveling on foot. Setting was many years ago on native land when westernization was new. They were walking to an old village to pick up something. On their way back they ran into a family who fled from the “new world” and hid in the caves. I do not know the name of the book or the author. I just remember the two boys walking a long distance for an item.
I am looking for a book I read in English class in the early 1970s. It was the story of a woman who lived in the arctic (or somewhere extremely cold). I remember it was so cold that they had to leave their vehicles running all the time. I also remember that many children died because that weather was so harsh. It was stated that many women had two sets of children because their first children died.
in this book the main characters name is Chamomile, she has just returned from holiday, where she had a holiday romance. She is back home with her boyfriend having breakfast together, when, on the radio, the chap she met on holiday is trying to find her, and asks if anyone knows Chamomile who has just been on holiday to….(can remember where) to please get her to contact him.
I would love to read this book, anyone any idea what it is called?
many thanks

I’ve been looking for this book that I read a couple years ago. It was an ebook, with a cover that has a leaning tower. All I can remember is that its about magic, the MC has a bell, there’s magical frequencies, and its a 3 or 4 book long series. I also recall there being quotes at the start of each chapter, kind of foretelling what would happen. I know its very vague, but I can’t find it anywhere.
Could this be either the Darkness or Collector series by Stacey Marie Brown?
I read a book in early 80s, so it was a book from 70s or early 80s. Fiction or non fiction. The husband died and the wife is sad and doesn’t want to go on and I believe she has kids. The husband sees her and even describes heaven I think, something about flowers but he is trying to think of a way to save his wife.
Read this book in high school in Ontario in the 80’s. I am not sure when the book was published. It was about a young boy who was caught as a stowaway in a barrel on a tall ship and was made to work in the rig. He loved the sun on his back and the wind in his hair. It doesn’t show up in moonfleet. What could it have been?

Hi,
I’ve been searching google over the years to try and find this book that I started reading back in middle school in the mid 2000’s, but I’ve never been able to find it. I checked it out from the local library, and could never find it again. I only vaguely remember the plot since I never finished it, but from what I remember, it was about a girl named Grace(I think, I’m not entirely sure but I feel really confident ). She has a best friend named Katie(?) and they live in a kind of secluded town. It’s winter and the two of them go skating on the frozen lake nearby. The ice cracks under Katie and she falls in and drowns. The town is furious and blame Grace for Katie’s death, and exile her by making her drink some kind of poison and then forcing her to leave forever. I never made it past this because middle school me was not ready for Katie’s death, I remember there was a passage that stated the two of them made eye contact when the ice cracked, and Grace could see the fear in Katie’s eyes.
I remember the cover was predominately blue and had a picture of a girl looking out a window. I want to say the title had Grace in it, but I’m not sure. The story makes it seem that Grace will die by the end because of the poison, but I want to say that there’s an underlying implication that the poison wasn’t effective in the end and she lives, because there was a sequel or two. I could be misremembering some of the details because this was a long time ago, but I’ve been dying to find it for years now!
Hi! This book I think is called Glory by Jodi Lynn. The main characters name is apparently Glory but I also thought the main characters name was Grace which is so strange and I think it’s unlikely that it’s just a coincidence. I’d been looking for this book forever!! I also thought this book was apart of a series with other girls in other historical time periods (One during the Great Depression?) but I think I might be mixing it up with something else.
Hello,
I’m trying to track down a couple of things. The first was a horror book I read back in the early 90’s. It had three zombie like girls coming out of a lake. The book title might have had the word ‘ice” in it. The plot was about a little boy who lived close to the lake and these three dead sisters kept trying to get him into the lake to murder him.
The second is actually has to do with a book club I was enrolled in back in the early 90’s. It was a monthly book club that would send suspense / romance books (maybe supernatural). The covers were almost like Harlequin books with ‘borders’ around the books, but I don’t think they were Harlequin. I remember one of the covers had a woman laying on a couch in a dark room while someone lingered in a doorway or window. I seem to recall another book cover that had a orange border and a female vampire on it.

I don’t remember the name of the book i read around 2006-2007 about a dominating boss of a cruise ship.

Instead ties her down with marriage contract in times of need to avoid her leaving him. Vaguely remembers the book cover was all in black and white. There was mention of Grand Canyon very often in the book. Maybe the male character had word BLAKE in his name and female was called TORY. Male character was very fond of flying planes and super rich.

I can’t remember much else but it’s been on my mind to find out how the story ends.

Looking for a book about how a girl uses spiders on her father to stop his sexual abuse of her
Looking for a book I read back in the early to mid 2010s. It was YA fiction. It followed two sisters who had recently become rich when their mom remarried. The parts I remember mostly follow the younger sister, who is notorious for envying other people for things she doesn’t have, namely her older sister’s boyfriend, (possibly named Kevin??) who she has a secret crush on. The older sister knows about the crush, but doesn’t mind it. There’s a whole scene where the younger sister artfully rips her mom’s old wedding dress (from her first wedding, I think???) to wear as a stylish outfit to a party. The older sister starts crushing on, and even hooks up with some guy with tattoo sleeves (in a sleeping bag?? In the bed of his truck???) while she’s thinking about how she’s over her bf but I think is still technically dating him. She does dump him, and the now ex-bf immediately hooks up with the younger sister and then ditches her. The older sister finds out and is just sad that he used her younger sister and her crush like that. I think it ends with a flashback of the two girls (pre rich stepdad) sharing a bed during a stormy night because the younger sister is too afraid to sleep alone, but won’t go to their parents because they told her they’d buy her some charm bracelet that other girls have if she stayed in her own bed for a month. And one of the sisters (can’t remember which one) reflects on how the younger one always wants what others have.
With all this info, you’d think it’d be easy to find on Google, but I’ve had no luck and I’m about to lose it!

Hello, I’m looking for a book that may have been a trilogy. It’s about a girl who saw ghosts and was an outcast in high school in a small town. A mysterious new guy in town shows up and offers to help her by taking her to a school or something with people with powers like her. She meets his friend who is an empath and father who is a physicist who time traveled and was stuck in time. The girl has a Colombian best friend whose family owns a coffee shop and is too curious for her own good. This is all I remember about the story. I do recall the cover being purple/pink with a blonde girl walking on the ceiling or something like that.
Does this story sound familiar to anyone?

I cannot remember the name or author of a book I read back in 1998. I think at the time it was new or
fairly new. Essentially it was a fantasy crime drama. There was a cop trying to solve a case. The
antagonist group were using the four horseman as a naming scheme and communicating through
some sort of message board if I remember correctly. I do remember that one of them had the ability
to mentally conjure a golem or creature. It may have been the same one but someone was able to
slow/stop time. There was a part in the book where they were inside of a warehouse party and the
golem creature was going through the crowd as time was slowed/stopped and he was maiming/killing
people in the crowd. I don’t remember very much else and would like to reread the book. I have
googled until I am blue in the face. Hopefully someone here will possess the knowledge that I do not
have and cannot seem to obtain currently. Thank you for humoring me. Lol

Hi sorry, I don’t know the book from which you are talking about. I wanted to ask if anyone knows that book that I am explaining in the following,
It is a fictional teen book about a girl who is in a academy for teens and young adults. It is an academy just like the air force. This girl and another girl, her partner, are flyers for the fastest jets on the air force. He father is the commander or general of the academy, but does not accept her and does not accept her attending the academy. The plot is with a war happening. I think the war is with a type of Chinese or Asian country/people. The enemy has a new jet, or machine, that is faster than the jets the girl and her country are flying. Then a new team of flyers arrive at the academy and she falls in love with one of the boys. I left off with the teams trying a simulation to try to match the speed on their enemies new machines. All I know is that the cover of the book was orange.
Please help me find the book, anyone!! Any little suggestion will help. I have been going crazy trying to find it and I have searched everywhere and anywhere for it.

It goes with the original story that she needs to go fight because her father can’t, and since her father has trained her from a young age to be a swordsman she’s going to be ok really but she can’t go as herself a girl, so her stepmother uses magic to disguise her as a boy. She gets to the training camp and meets her love interest who is the son of the emperor and thinks he’s the best swordsman. They fight and she beats him and calls him something like a puffed up rooster, and they eventually become friends. I also remember towards the end of the story she puts on a pair of golden slippers that her mother used to wear and maybe loses one at the palace….. in the end I remember they fall in love and theirs a scene at the end of the book from their wedding night. The frustrating thing is that I can’t remember the name and google can’t find this book.

My daughter (now in her mid 30’s) posed a question about a book she read from her childhood to her mother, sister and me. All she can remember is this rather vague description: “I’m looking for the title of a book I LOVED as a kid/teen. Its about a girl who snuck up to an attic in her grandma’s (?) house and found a trunk with a dress in it. She put it on and time traveled. There was a also a Christmas book about time travel I believe with the same girl. I think her name was maybe Mandy/Molly?
It’s NOT the Mandie and the Secret Tunnel series i know that”
Does not ring a bell for me but both my other daughter and their mother recognized the description but can’t come up with the title, author or anything additional.
Any help/assistance/suggestions greatly appreciated.
I’m looking for a book with a man name Troy, he’s a Pastor/ Christian which I believe is married. A lady, or old time friend came along and she started to lust deeply at Troy but I’m not so sure if Troy had the same feelings or probably he did. The book describes how Troy looked in the eyes of the woman and I remember it mentioned his eyes were blue. I got this book many years ago for my birthday but wasn’t able to even read 5 chapters because my cousin pressured me to lend her in which I wasn’t going to. Then I went to her house with it one evening because I was resting when she called me over and I went, I left it there my mistake and I never got it back. Help me please someone.
There’s a book about this little girl had a sister and they had to share a room but they didn’t get along and eventually she used all of her buttons to create a curtain to separate the room.

There was this kids book where this village boy was friends with this troll or giant named Destra and she was the smallest of her kind? I think she was some kind of ice troll or something and there were like three books in the series I think and one of the book covers was purple and some kind of chess game. I remember specifically that the girls name was Destra and she was either a giant or a troll and that she was the smallest
Do you mean Thrones and Bones?
Okay, so here’s what I remember from all those years ago 1972-1974. This book is about two boys that find a crusty old book in their garage. The book is about a secret club. Inside it has lots of illustrations including instructions on how to make a paper mask, a spear and other things that are used in the secret society. It’s a short book, I remember it having a green cover with kids in masks. I don’t even know where to start looking for this book and I need to show it to my 5 year old boy cause he would love it! Thanks!
Thanks for sharing such a great information. For my purposes, the most awesome aspect of kids’ books are the vital statements that typify a whole book in a sentence or two. Nobody will at any point settle on “awesome” quotes, however here are a portion of my top choices!
Set in 1930s Moscow. 2 or 3 British businessmen on a trade mission dealing in some banal product. Excellent conversation and character description as well as the conditions in Russia at that time and how foreigners were perceived and treated. Deep and thought provoking.
I’m looking for a book I read back in the 1970’s, about a high school girl from a small town is beaten and r_-_- in a park by the “rich, popular guy on campus”. She didn’t report it to the police because the few people she shared her story with were very unsupportive. Although her life feels shattered she continues by moving to another town across the country to attend college trying to forget this nightmare. Years later she sees that this same “rich, popular guy” has risen in the political arena and is now running for Senator/Congressman, she then volunteers to work on his election committee … after all the years that have passed he has absolutely no idea who she is … and she turns the table on him … don’t want to give away the ending!

Another example is when they read that she is scared to sing out in the public but they force her to sing karaoke in a coffee shop) I been trying to look for the book for a long time pls help me!!
I’ve looked everywhere to find this book I read long ago. I only remember vague details. There was a teen girl who moved to this big house in a small town right next to the ocean with her younger brother and mom I believe. It was written from the teen girls perspective, I believe. She had the room on the top floor and there was a point when she jumped or fell into the ocean. There was a passage in the book where she goes outside and sees her brother playing by some trees in their yard. I can’t remember if there was a boy involved for a love interest, but there may be. That’s all I can remember. It’s driving me insane that I cannot remember this book. Thank you so much for any help. I’ve googled every word combination I can think of but nothing is helping.
Looking for the book i thought was a Dr. Seuss Book where the Character is stuck in the middle of the road, can decide which way to go.

I remember the beginning it was girl who’s mom got a call from the hospital and her uncle was in the hospital (potentially??)) her mom had a jeep they drove in. When they arrived at the hospital there was a church in the hospital. A girl who had cancer talked to mc and mc would pray for her. Later on something happens where her mom put up a T with her arms to sign it ment a time out. Mc later meets up with an old friend and ends up spending the day with her. They make brownies (i think) and she goes to a diner with them. They ride boats on the lake and one of the boats has a ladybug on it. This is all I remember about it.
Main person is Robyn, she was a journalist that was investigating hotel or building fires and her husband or boyfriend died in a hotel fire. She testified and was put in the witness protection program. Robyn is a teacher now. While out for a run she met a new tenet in her apartment which she became involved with and he turned out the be a lawyer. In the mean time her protection officer Shelia shows up and gets involved with the lawyer’s brother. In the end Shelia is being paid to kill her.

The Color Kittens?
The book I am trying to find was from a book club I was in from the 80’s to 90’s. It was a paperback knitting book. It showed a girl hanging up a scarf (?) and her back was all it showed. I let someone borrow it. My first and last mistake.
I am desperately trying to remember the name or author of 3 novels with the same character. I think the author was an x lawyer or investigator. Genre is crime, thriller. I think the 3 novels were his only publications. Character was a guy who grew up in the Bronx or Harlem and became a lawyer. He got an innocent African American off death row and the 2 became friends and business partners. It’s not John Grisham or Peter James but similar style. I read them about 15 years ago so must have been published around the early 2000s. Someone asked me my favourite books and these were it because after i read the first one i got the next two and holed myself up until i finished them which i have never done before or since. I have tried google but no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In the 1970s, I came across an adult black-and-white comic book while traveling through the Midwest with my parents. The magazine might have been “Creepy” or “Eerie.” I was a child, and my folks wouldn’t have bought me a comic book intended for mature readers. Standing in the store, I didn’t have time to read the whole thing, but I can still recall a sequence where a scrawny, long-haired man enters a young woman’s home — possibly a secluded cabin in the woods — with an enormous blade. He slices her belly open and pulls out a new-born infant. I remember how black and sticky the blood looked. Does anybody know what that was?

Hi, to anyone reading this
I’m trying to find a graphic novel in black-and-white from my earlier school years, but can’t remember title or author.
The parts i remember aren’t necessarily consecutive, but in order from the start to end. The (?) means that i can’t actually remember the specifics or not certain of detail. The [skipping pages] means that i skip through the book, so the next detail that happens isn’t automatically after prior detail.
It involves genocidal robots, and is set in a modern/futuristic setting, that transits to a ruined city/desert.
During an attack on a city/town(?), one of the robots was left in a critical condition. Nearby, a young boy on the verge of death was lying there, facing upwards, and is shown with most of his right side of his body crushed/gone. Searching for a means of survival, the robot assimilates with the young boy’s body, as the boy black-out from the pain wondering what was going to happen.
The robot, possessing the boy’s body, then uses his metallic appendages to “fill” the right side of the body, assuming the form of his right eye, right hand, and right leg, making up the right-hand side of his body, with the excess trailing behind him as metallic tendrils, similar to other robot tentacles, as his upper body is mostly exposed/shirtless.
Haven taken control of the body, the newly defined “cyborg” then heads towards a certain scientist/engineer’s home, then proceeds to take his life. Having regained consciousness, the boy’s will breaks through the robots dominance and tells the scientist to flee, but the robot then regains control and crushes the scientist with his robotic hand. After the assassination, a young girl, presumed to be the daughter of the scientist, oblivious to the murder, was found by the cyborg. Unlike the scientist, she was spared, and followed the cyborg, side-by-side.
As for the young boy, his consciousness taking the form of his original body, was trapped in a “mental jail” with the robot’s intact mental form standing there as his warden(?), but the boy unable to regain control of his body, in spite of his pleas towards the robot, as he ends up swallowed (by chains, memories or darkness, that part is hazy, with the next part).
[this was the first half of the graphic novel i can remember “clearly”, this second part is nearer the second-half, mostly near the end. I don’t know any details, so i can’t say why for the events that happens next]
Wandering the sand-like wastelands, the two come across a gang/clan of motorcycle riding scavengers, only about 5-to-10(?) years older than the boy, with a woman/young lady as the ringleader. The cyborg also seems to have no ill will(?) towards them, and he, the girl, and the gang travel together. As they go, the young boy, unable to affect the robot, watches(?) as he is unable to reassume control.
[skipping pages]
After a while, a piggybank-sized piece of debris from the ruined buildings fell on top of the young girl’s head as the bike leader cries out. The debris hits the young girl, causing a nasty dent in her head. Then unexpectedly, the damage just automatically healed, with the young girl’s chirpy demeanor unchanged, despite the shock on the multiple biker’s faces.
It then turns out that, unbeknown to the cyborg, the young girl was an android human, created by her “father”.
[skipping pages]
An genocidal robot, hunting down the “defective”(?) robot that makes up the cyborg, then confronts and procedes to “terminate” the cyborg, as the cyborg fights back in an “self-presavation” manner, as the boy cries out for control as the physical pain (?) from the confrontation, shocks the boy’s mental body.
In a moment of rage, (half-remembering a quote: “sometimes all that’s left is power”) the boy jumps on the robot’s mental body, wrapping it in ink-black shadows, causing the robot’s control to cease.
Immediately regaining control of his body, the boy plunges his left human hand through the hunter robot’s body/frame and as the oil sprays from the hunter, (may be misremembering this next part) his mental body and physical body say the same phrase: “I won’t let you take control anymore!”
After the confrontation, the cyborg’s mental world shifts roles, as the boy’s mental body stands before a chained-up robot, as they exchange words. As the boy’s mental body turns to leave, he notes to the robot that the robot’s speech pattern has started to resemble more that of a human.
Parting ways with the bikers, the cyborg and young girl/android continues to wander together. (This should be on/near the last page of the graphic novel) The two, standing on top of the dunes of sand, looks towards the horizon. As the young android maintains her upbeat look, the cyborg’s dull eyes gives no indication of who is in control. (last panel)
And that is all the main details i can recall, while i’m unsure of this being the start of a series, or just a stand-alone book, i am certain that this book should have been published before the year 2013.
This novel stood out in my memories due to the internal conflict of boy and robot, as they share a crude fusion of their bodies. I’m also about 80% certain that this is a graphic novel, as opposed to manga, due to the reading direction of left to right.
It may be a version of The Night Before Christmas. Santa is standing in front of a fireplace with his bag of toys. There is a Christmas tree and a little dog.
This book had seven? main characters and each character had a tattoo of a planet on their wrist. Each character also had a power. I remember one had the powers of a seer (she was female), one could create power balls and sense the energy or aura of a person (also female). Normally the one who could sense auras would see a cloud like substance around the person she is looking at and it would either be white, light gray, dark gray, or black. But she comes across individuals that have other colors in their aura such as green, yellow, red, blue, etc…these colors are from science experiments that changed the seven individuals genes? DNA?
Six of the individuals had found each other and were drawn to the female who senses auras, whom they found walking? on the side of the road. The young woman had hitchhiked to a town? I’m not sure. And she had accidently left a bag in the mans (the person who had picked her up) truck.
She was told where the man lived and started to walk there, which is where the group of six had found her. They dropped her off at the farm and waited while she asked for her bag, but when the door opened to the farmhouse? she fainted.
That’s most of what I remember. Oh, and the young woman had a strange connection to the man who was one of the six. She and the other six had lost their memories, were given money, ID’S, and stayed at different hotels. But the woman was known to sleepwalking and had sleepwalking into an alleyway a few blocks? from the hotel she was supposed to be staying at.
Also this book is one of a series and is a Kindle fantasy fiction book.
This book was about man and wife, last name angel . There was a train wreck. A family on the train, parents die , they had several children. The angel Gabriel is worker at the train site. The Angel can’t have kids end up adopting kids on train
So I’m from the UK, England to be specific (might make a difference!).
This was 100% a short story, or an extract of a story that was edited into an anthology of short stories for children. I’d say between say I was between 7 and 10 which would be in the late ’90s and early ’00s. I thought it was the puffin “Stories for 8 year olds,” but I don’t think it is. So I’d be over the moon and ever so grateful if you know what it is called! We don’t have the book at home anymore so I unfortunately can’t just go and look it up anymore.
So the story was about a Mum who was really silly and scatty. I vaguely remember that the beginning of the story was the young girl was trying to get to school (I think it was school) on time as she was always late, and I think it was winter. The girl was all wrapped up in their winter coat with hat, scarf, and gloves etc. She was waiting by the front door and calling up the stairs to her mum saying hurry up! When the mother eventually came downstairs she was wearing summer clothes. I have a feeling that it was she was wearing a sparkly silver top with spaghetti straps, a short (bright, maybe yellow) skirt and strappy heels even though it was snowing outside and they had to walk to get to the school. The mum may have even had just one shoe bc she couldn’t find the other shoe. Maybe it was the shoes that were silver and sparkly instead of the top. Or even both! It was basically a role reversal where the girl was the mum and the mum was the child. So the girl made the mum go back upstairs and change. I have a very vague memory of her wearing a woollen scarf, but it was really eclectic and mismatched. It was homemade and made up from lots of different sizes of wool, so many colours that made no sense and looked like the scraps and leftover bits had just been thrown in there. There were bits of wool poking out where the ends of the cut wool hadn’t been tucked into the scarf. I think it was made up of different pieces which were different widths and lengths then sewn together. But it really seemed to represent the mother and her scatty, creative, oddball self! In my opinion anyway. There may have also been a baby in a pushchair possibly wearing like a winter coat onsie thing and mittens and hat etc, but it could also have been the girl when she was younger, I really cannot recall. I think it was a sibling though as I think I remember her saying that the baby was getting too hot so she needed to get ready quickly.
Lastly, I thought that there was an extract of “The Diary of a Killer Cat” in the book too; I want to say it was one of the last stories, but throughout my many many attempts at Googling this, I cannot seem to find it ever being part of an anthology type children’s book. And if it was in a collective book, it may not be the same one that the mum/daughter story/extract was in.
Anyway, so unfortunately that is all I can remember. I hope it’s enough and someone knows what I’m going on about! This has been bugging me for so long and I’ve spent hours and hours and hours looking for it with no success. I think I’ve found every childhood story in the world bar the one I desperately wish to find! I just remember loving the story so much and would reread it constantly, so I would just love to know which story I was so obsessed with as a child! So yeah, if you can help I would be so so grateful! Thank you!

I am looking for a book that had a sort of blue colour and it was mainly hardback. It had 4 or 3 children on the cover and there was an aeroplane flying above them in it. The story was about some couple of kids that messed around in a house, they drank some toilet water because they couldn’t find any other source of food and said that it tasted of crystals or something, i can’t remember properly. There was this Pilot as well who got injured and then out of the 3/4 children, there was one girl who helped stitch up his wound and I can’t really remember anything else, except that the next book in the series had a red-coloured book.
Trying to hunt down this book!

A young college teacher (by college, i mean high school.. the beginning of the story is based in the UK, so yeah there they say college) who was probably 21-25yrs old. She worked in an all boys college. The boys had to wear uniforms. There was this one “popular” boy who was well-known, well educated, handsome and all teachers liked him, and he had a ‘crush’ on that young teacher. I think the teacher also had a crush on him, but I’m not sure..
After a lot of misunderstandings and confusion, they spent their first night together (both were virgins, i believe) in an cabine/lodge/inn.
Their relationship was kind of a mess but they fell head over heels for each other.
The young teacher got pregnant (but the boy didn’t know). Oh oh i forgot to mention, he has a crooked tooth.. the author always seems to mention that.
She decides to break the relationship between him and travels to another country(i don’t know where but i believe somewhere in Europe).
She gives birth to a daughter, the meets another man who is rich and loves to handle with antiques and goes to antique auctions a lot. They start a relationship. The three of them are happy together but.. she can’t stop thinking about the crooked tooth boy.
Time passes and crooked tooth boy and young teacher meet again, she gets pregnant again with his child, a boy is born. The rich man knows about her relationship with crooked tooth boy but is not mad? And he even doesn’t say anything about it.
In the last few chapters, the rich man dies of stress and old age.. but then i can’t remember anything thing else. Please help me find this book. I can’t stop thinking about it..

this summary is going to be confusing but that is because i have not read the full novel. it’s only 42 pages and is self published. my english teacher reads pages to us as a joke in our creative writing class and im desperate to find it so i can read it myself. the story is about a girl from canada with a police officer as her dad. dead mermaids keep washing up on shore and of course she wants to figure out why. the mermaid king is a horrible man and replaced the main characters father a long time ago. apparently the dad is thousands of years old. he was the merman king but left the ocean to “follow jesus.” towards the end of the story the merman king tries to kill the dad, but jesus shines through his stab wound and heals him…..if anyone has read this or heard about it PLEASE LET ME KNOW. a quote i remember from the book had something to do with scars or cuts looking like “lines from a squishy zebra.” i’m sorry for the vague explanation, i really wish i knew more. i have looked absolutely everywhere but have had no luck whatsoever
I am looking for a book that I read when I was younger (early/mid 2010s) that I’m pretty sure is part of some sort of series/triology. From the remnants of my memory the cover had pink stripes and ??I think an illustration of a young girl?? The book is set in France and is about a girl living with her aunt and siblings/cousins. My memory is really foggy, but I clearly remember enjoying the book. Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thank you 🙂
I saved a male mermaids life and he took my body by Force that is a line from the book can any body help pleas i so the title on Facebook for Goodreads
Did you find out the answer? I am searching for the same thing. Thanks
Any feedback, I’m looking for the same
Me too!!! Have you found anything?
I think it’s The Mermaid That’s Sweetest by C. Swallow if I’m not mistaken.
Children’s hard paged book about a mother cat that wakes up and her kittens are gone all 5 of them
I bought it in 1984
Each short story in the book has a different animal involved in an adventure with nature or a family
A very old book about a spider who was taught to knit a Web by his mummy spider. It’s a very old book
Fantasy, possibly YA, read around 2010, a girl ends up in a castle and thinks she’s the only human there but finds a wolf there and decides to stay up one night and hides a candle under her pillows and discovers a man instead
It’s kind of similar to a Beauty and the Beast story but it’s not a disney themed one. After the girl sees the guy I know she wakes him up and he’s super angry about it and talks about a curse. I think she needs to love him to break it, but I don’t remember.
i think the book you’re looking for is called echo north, its young adult fiction

Hello, I read a book in 6th grade and I am looking for it again. It was a series, and I remember the cover. The girl had red curly hair (which was often mentioned in the book). She had a symbol on her hand which I remember she was scratching in one scene. She had powers because of this symbol. She is visited by a handsome guy who is often said to look “golden.” She stands in front of a gate to a mansion on the cover. She also had to stay in the mansion after a family member dies. Also, the handsome guy was evil and his name started with an A I believe. A scientist guy dies in a hospital scene too. Please help! I can see the cover in my head but I can’t think of it!

And the guy wears a bowler hat?? I have been trying to find the title of this book since I read it in the 90s, lol
I read a paperback in the late 70’s I enjoyed and can’t remember the title. If memory serves there was a young female (unsure if girl or young woman). Seems like she was sent to or went to, possibly in hiding/escape, a different planet. There was a large creature, long hair, possibly mammoth or elephant size. I recall imagery of long billowing golden? grass/wheat that the creatures ate. I believe it gave them abilities? I think she was able to communicate telepathically with the creatures. Possibly teleport also. Please help… it’s driving me crazy lol. I’ve searched every which way I could think of.
Lord of the Stars? MC is male but there is a girl side character who is fairly prominent. Telepathy, different planet, animals etc.
Thank you for your reply! I’m trying a search for this book with a fuller description of the plot. So far, the small bit I’m able to find doesn’t sound quite right. I’m sure it focuses on a female in the story.

Try Five Kingdoms: Sky Raiders
I am looking for a short story i read in Grade 8 or 9 in which a man is pursued by a robot (alien?) that matches his speed until he overcomes his victim. But by the time this man is caught he lost too much weight so he was let go. This is fairly old because i read it about 35 years ago but the story has always stuck with me. I appreciate any insight you can give me
I think this is one of the short stories in Ray Bradbury’s collection “Golden Apples of the Sun”. I certainly remember reading the story you describe.
Looking for two children’s story book
The first colour is kind of dull brown yellow,I thinkthe boy was being chased by trolls(am not sure)at the ending part of the story the meanest troll was about falling into a bottomless pit when he beg the boy saying “help us” even though he was the only one about to fall
He fell though ,the boy didn’t save him he wasn’t that naive.
The second story is about a bear (not sure) and the books contains different chapters on different lives of the bear there was this this chapter he was with a man smoking a cigar this story is a bit colourful compared to the first one,there was this chapter where the bears(I think the main bear and other members) were hanging upside down on poles and this particular chapter was all green
I received both books as a gift around 2008
I’m looking for a short story about a husband who’s wife (iirc) sends an assassin to kill him. The man goes into his safe for some reason at which point he subtly manages to get the glass the assassin was drinking from into the safe. The man says to the assassin that if he kills him, the police will be able to find him using his fingerprints found on the glass that’s now in the safe. The assassin accuses the man of bluffing since there were two glasses. We can’t be sure if it actually is the assassin’s glass in the safe or not. Anyway, the man turns the tables and essentially gets the assassin to kill his wife instead.
This was one of the stories in the TV series, “Tales of the Unexpected” . Most, if not all of the stories were written by Roald Dahl.
It was called, “A Time to Die”.

Hangin’ Out with CiCi, or My Mother Was Never a Kid, by Francine Pascal
I’ve been looking for a book that I read when I was 14 (more than 10 years ago), I cannot remember the name and unfortunately, I remember very few things of the plot.
The cover has a sword and I believe the title has something to do with knights but haven’t found anything related on my search in google.
The book is set on the medieval age, there’s this ‘boy’ that wants to become a knight and helps young Arthur (this i’m not entirely sure) with his quests to become a royal knight, at the very end there’s a plot twist in which the main character is not a boy but an undercover girl. I remember enjoying so much this book but forgot the name completely.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Alanna: The First Adventure?
Hello Justin!
Thank you very much for your guess but I found it a couple of days ago!!!
The title is: sword of the rightful king
hey you seem smart how did you find the book you were looking for
So there was this book I read once but I forgot the name but it was about 3 teenagers, 1 girl and 2 boys and they were all around the same age. They escaped from the police and their family because they were going to be sent off to died in pretty sure and they came across each other. At first they all didn’t trust each but then they grew on one another. The girl and the oldest guy started falling in love. I also remember a part about them being at a airplane graveyard with other teens like them.
There was a book I read in high school, about eleven years ago. I cannot remember the title or the author but I remember a few vivid details. I recall there being a serial killer targeting women. A man with no association to the killer whatsoever (becomes entangled with the killer by chance) sees a beautiful redheaded woman on a train/subway and this woman happens to become the killer’s next target. There is a climactic ending to the book with the main character being injured, but he survives, and I think the redhead does as well. I feel like I remember the main character owning a bike or a motorcycle of some kind.
I read a fiction novel in the early to mid 80s. It was about a human teacher and her daughter moved to a small town. (One of them was named Nicole). The teacher taught night school for vampire children. I don’t recall the rest, but really want to find it and re-read it.
1985-1987 novel blue cover and don’t have author or title only read last 5 pages and male character in a rage strangles a female character who doesn’t resist as she turns cyanotic and onlookers cannot rescue her. He ends up in mental institution. Could involve Hollywood/Broadway 1920s-30s . Reverse engineering plot victim may have saved another couple from the villain she schemed with and knew that she might would probably be killed for betrayal but for redemption and and justice she sets it up in public with witnesses to assure he receives appropriate comeuppance.
Just read your post and would like to thank you for maintaining such a cool blog.
The plot has the woman acting as an assistant to the assassin but she is the assassin herself. In one of the assignments, she uses balloons filled with some combustible gases I think for some birthday party and the detectives roll out the roof to save the target and a bunch of others. Darn!!! I don’t remember the thriller’s name … It could be Agatha Christie, Clive Cussler, Ludlum, Wilbur Smith, … I don’t know…. Any help folks?
I am looking for a book where a daughter goes home expecting a promotion to detective but instead her father gives it to a man. she quits as a deputy working for him and goes to another county. then when a murder happens she has to work alongside her father as 2 counties are involved.
I am looking for a book, in this book there was this girl who was sent to a rich boarding school by her parents(her mother also went to the same school) she later found out that her grandmother owned the school and her uncle took drastic measures just to become the owner of the school. Her uncle kidnapped her?? Invaded the school?? She fell in love with one of the boys who would climb her window at night. They found out one of their teachers was an insider for her uncle.

I am looking for a book about a young girl, I think she might’ve been adopted or was in some type of mental hospital. There were three books to the series, the first has a blue cover with her face on it, the second has an orange cover with her face and a boys face on it, and the third has a purple cover. I think her name might have been Jodi if I am remembering correctly.
I am looking for a beautiful hardbound Christmas book that my uncle bought for me sometime between 1965 and 1970. It had stories, poems & recipes with old fashioned Christmas pictures.
Can you remember anything else? Maybe like some of the stories in it?
I don’t. I just remember that there were a few recipes in there with the poems and stories and the pictures were of an old fashioned Christmas.
ah, dang. I hope you figure out the name though!
do you guys know a book about a 14 year old boy’s journal on how he traveled to the hudson river with 2 captains in the 18’s?
I want to reread a book that I read a long time ago. A man comes home early from a business trip and brings home take out food that has been cooked in peanut oil. His son has a little friend spending the night. The man gives the little boy a drink of water in a glass that has a trace of oil from his fingers. The boy dies of a peanut allergy.
read many years ago, book was fantasy/sci fi style and has something to do with travel thru time or maybe dimensions i can remember a deck of cards was very important but not why and something to do with doors…. I remember something about the character near beginning being attack by some kind of animal like hell hound or tiger or something similarish. I have been trying to remember this title for YEARS. read in the mid to late 90’s……
This is a childrens book. Large title I remember. There is a sketch like picture of a tall, thin, hunched over tree like creature. I want to say like a folklore thing?
Can you please say what the book is about? Someone may remember the name but not what the book looks like. There is also the possibility that there are different looking covers for the same book
I do not know anything about what the content of the book is… the picture on the front is what I remember. It is a long story… but need to show someone the picture for a reference to a true haunting of a family in Central NY.
I’m looking for a book my sister told me she’d read a long time ago I think it’ll be a nice Christmas present for her if I find it. All she was able to remember about the story is that it centers around 2 sisters whose parents are on the older side and emotionally distant and one day they get nanny but it turns out to be the spirit of their dead oldest sister that they did not know. In the end it brings the whole family closer.
Looking for a book I used to read my daughter, in the mid 90’s. It was shaped like a heart and was pink. I still remember the words, it started
“on Valentines Day I gave Sally a card, she gave me some chocolates some mushy some hard. I ate all chocolates, they tasted so fine. I gave none to Sally. Why should I their mine” I can actually dictate the whole book……….really want to get this book for my grandaughter. thank you!!!
I remember reading this book and it was about an Indian boy who got blamed for stealing laptops in his school and he got sent to a military school and then he got bullied and then he goes into a time freeze and then he finds other people of his military school and he saw velociraptors and then him and his friends get a drone that you can ask questions.
The story is from the point of view of a white boy during the civil war era. He runs into a black woman that used to live in his town and her young mixed son. The woman dies in childbirth and makes him promise to deliver her son to his white relatives. I remember the boys got split up for a bit because the white boy gets hit in the head with a gun during a riot and is laid up in bed for two weeks. The white relatives end up not taking the mixed boy and I think he ends up living with a group of runaway slaves at the end. I read the book in either middle school or high school.
I am trying to remember a book I read as a teen so my teenager can read it too. It’s about a teenage girl returning back to her hometown where her mother mysteriously drowned in the lake. It’s a mystery thriller, she has a necklace that begins to tighten and choke her, there’s a rope that ties in a knot and at the end of the book she get hit in the head and falls in the lake. It’s almost like a Nancy drew book
I think this is the book I am searching for too. Was she in a garden? I am not sure if I am confusing two books – the necklace is the bit that stands out.
The book i’m looking for is called Treatment or the Treatment about a family who are being poisoned by someone living in their attic, pretty sure it was published before 2007.
While she was only a chapter i’m his book, he was her title.
What does this mean
Unrequited love.
Thank you:)
I remember reading this one book. So basically this girl ends up in the woods, and finds a stream of water under a pile of rocks. Before she drinks this guy stops her. Im pretty sure he has two brothers or something like that. They explain to her that your immortal after you drink from there, its a curse and stuff. You cant die no matter what. ANd they proceed to walk her out of the woods where he house it or smth. I know she ends up meeting with them again and falls in love with one of them. He gives her a tiny bottle with the water and says its her choice to become immortal to stay with him. He then goes away cause of a crime or smth. He comes back years later to see if she did it and realized she died in a house fire with her mother. And i know theres something crime involved cause they said hey can never be caught and if they were and got hung, they cant due and they would be found out
im currently reading a book like that, although it isnt exctly the same, is the name perhaps “Tuck Everlasting” By Natalie Babbit?
there’s this book i read a while ago and all i can remember is the books cover and that its fantasy. the cover has a girl with wavy ginger hair and shes holding up a dagger, the book also has something to do with winter.
From blood and Ash?
This one book I read back in 6th grade I don’t remember much but I think it’s about this group of friends that sneak into a guy’s backyard or some where they’re not supposed be but then they find one of the friends body’s in an ally please even if your not sure just throw out names you might think it could be that’s all I remember
Maybe published in 80’s to 90’s. Nonfiction. Daily readings for self-care and well-being for women. Unique in size and color: hardbound, pink with front cover title printed as a white “label. Size was tall and narrow, about 1” thick. I bought the book at Borders or Barnes and Noble.
I think later a title came out for men.

I’m looking for a book about a teenage girl hooking up with a boy at a party, but then realizing he had a part in her sister’s murder.

What is the name of the book?
What time period was this written in? Can you remember what war? Where was the location?
Looking for a book I read about 8 years ago. I don’t remember much about it but here it is:
A boy was thrown into water off a cliff of some sort by I believe his brother, to die. It then turns out he has some power, and he is able to separate the oxygen molecules from the hydrogen molecules in the H2O and he survives. I believe he ends up realizing he has telekinesis. That’s all I remember but I’m almost positive the title had something to do with the word freak.
Looking for a book I read at 12. Dark cover with things like wands around the perimeter. (Same type of style as the hazel wood) about a girl who gets kicked out of Catholic Church and has to work with her mom at a mansion. There are Roumers that the wife who owns the house is crazy. She’s always locked in her room and complains about the food being salty, however a lot of special sugar is always added to her food.
Long story short, It turns out that the husband was on purpose giving his wife this “sugar” which turned out to be something very salty and if taken in high doses (which the wife was) can make the person very dependent on it and kind of kookoo. The young girl found ways to communicate with the wife by hiding in the dumbwaiter, she ended up helping the wife escape and they confronted the husband, who they blackmailed to leave this state and go under a different name.
The wife was the technical owner of the house, as it used to be her fathers. I think the husband wanted to own it but I’m not sure. There was some stuff about pomegranates involved greatly but I can’t remember why. (Searching my brain rn for any other facts) the girl used to help the cook make the food and give it to the wife but she forgot the “sugar” once, which made the wife that was dependent on it go on a rampage, after that she wasn’t allowed in there and had to
Clean instead. She wife used to be very popular, I think she was either a model or actress. The young girls mother was in love with the husband. There was a servant dude who was Italian or French. I think he was some infamous person who was either an assassin, or hes bombed some places. But he went under a fake name and that’s how he got the job.
Did you find the name of the book? It sounds good.
unfortunately no, haha im actually hoping that someone responds with the name, since for some reason I can’t remember for the life of me.
Im trying to find this book i read when i was around nine, it was a novel. Light blue cover with either black or right writing, but im pretty sure it was black. It was known, back then, this was around 2015-16. I only remember it being very deep talking about life, it had an almost dazey feeling to it, but that might just be because of my dazed memory.
I read this book when I was around 12 and I haven’t been able to find it since. it was a little paperback novel. couldn’t have been no more than three to four hundred pages the cover I remember was black with metallic dark blue writing. The beginning of the novel was about a child who had recently moved to a new place with his parents they were building a home and as they were digging the ground for the basement I do believe these little creatures would come out at night time and the creatures killed his mother. I lost the book before I could read past the third chapter so I don’t know any more about it hopefully somebody has read it and could point me in the right direction.
I’m trying to find a book from my childhood but I think it might have been a graphic novel. It was a series about a kid who went on adventures with his friends named after animals for example Monkey and Rhino. They also had a friend or rival who was a girl that did ballet and a specific memory of the book was when They said she took nibbles of her toast so she can still be skinny. I remember from one of the covers was them carrying a rolled up carpet onto the train. Another memory was when the main character was trying to do something nice for the mom and tried to soak her feet with hot water but ended up burning her.

So my husband has been talking about a book from his childhood but he cant remember the title or author!.
Its about a city full of wizards who get kickced out of the city if they have no magic, the main character gets kicked out as it apears that he has no magic but it turns out that jis magic is based on luck, for example if he where getting chased by a giant he would fall over just in the right place that he did not get trampled on.
My husband cant seem to tell me more than that, just its a book about wizards who get kicked out of the city if they have no magic.
I know its a long shot but thanks in advanced anyway!
So the story is about this girl who as I recall was popular I believe and she gets pregnant. A guy and this girl meet and this guy has trauma over believing he killed his bestfriend when they got into a fight on the sidewalk and the friend fell into the road and got hit by a car. Since the girls baby daddy isn’t in the picture anymore since her family would be dissapointed by who the father is this guy offers to be the father as in the girl tells her family he is the father. Throughout the story this boys mom or sad knows that he isn’t the father. The cover as I recall was a red cover with an illustration of the silhouette of a boy and girl sitting on a bench with a stork in the air.
Im trying to find an audio book about a boy whos father was a detective who had died and left him his car and taught him that if someone who wore glasses was found dead from an apparent suicide but the they still had their glasses on were murdered. He worked for a bakery and met a girl who was richer than he was. They eventually broke apart even though she still said she wanted to be with him. Around the that time he recently met a rich guy who he accidently had a minor crash with. the rich guy eventually became his friend and he wanted him to go to school in his sons place and when in school he made it into a major club on the campus called the sevens club.
Okay so I’ve searched for this book for the longest and can’t find it so I see this so why not since everyone is finding their books lol

She doesn’t have any family she’s kinda poor and she gets job at this casino and she was asked to go to the boss cause he wanted a drink so her and her coworker go up and as they went they see no one but the main character saw a painting and was amazed by it. Then the boss appears from behind they’re startled the main girl and boss stare at one another because they have the same eye color and as they was leaving the coworker says he likes her and she’s the only one he spoke too.

Could it potentially be Catalyst by Laurie Halse Anderson?
Hello everyone,
I found this place after trying desperately to figure out if there’s a book, movie or television series about the below.
After waking up this morning I was stuck with an image and what seemed like the tail-end of a mystery/horror-like story in my head and by gum, I swear I have read or seen something about something similar before somewhere.
Okay, here is the story:
“” A group of young girls and guys are somewhere near a lake at a boathouse of sorts. maybe a get-together, drinks whatever.
The guys fool around and want to get the girls to, y’know, but the main girl of the story doesn’t want to, which somehow aggrivates one of the guys.
here the story turns dark.
The girl gets chained to a wooden raft or float, or something and the guys take it out into the water with the intend of scaring her into submission of sorts. however then some weird accident happens (collision with something) and the guy gets killed, leaving the chained up girl on the raft which slowly starts to sink.
The end was a close-up of her face with a expression like “finally this nightmare ends” without screaming she slowly drowns… fade to black. “”
The ending image is what got stuck in my mind, the closeup of the girl in what I remember as white/beige rags, chained to a wooden frame behind her, eclipsed within black. For some inexplicable reason I swear this could be the cover of a book or movie.
Does anyone know if there’s such thing? or is my imagination going rampant on me?
I was wondering if anyone could help me with this book I’m trying to remember. So in the story, this girl dies and this other girl (who is seemingly unrelated to the first girl) receives an email from the dead girl (even though, hello, she’s dead). The other girl then has to solve who killed the dead girl and why she’s the only one capable of finding the answer. It’s a young adult mystery and if you’ve read it, I would be grateful. Thanks!
I have been looking for this book for so long that I feel like I am making it up or it was a dream. I read it some time back in middle school I think. It was about a girl who attends a ball as a lady-in-waiting I think, but the whole plot is that all the girls invited are going to be turned into flowers in the garden by a set of evil hosts. This girl in particular gets turned into a dandelion because she “is as useless and boring as a weed” or something like that. I can’t remember if she saves herself or if her love interest does. All I remember about him is that he can turn into a raven and isn’t disappointed that she is a dandelion, as dandelions are beautiful too. Since I can’t find it through google cause of the Raven Cycle books, it feels like a fever dream from ages ago.
You unlocked a memory I forgot I had! I read that book back in elementary school, and had completely forgotten about it. I thought that I had made it up until I saw your post. I have no clue what the name of the book is, but I hope you find it!
Hello everyone. 🙂
Though i would give this a try after searching for over a week for this ebook i had last year and deleted for some reason. Thing is… i cannot remember the name or author…. ugh! If anyone has any ideas of title or author…. please let me know…
Firstly, well… it was adult in nature. I remember it was about this orphan girl who had been saved and trained by some organization to hunt fairies? Or elves… i think it’s fairies. In this book they put spells on people and drink there blood. I remember her mother was seduced by them and they (insert adult stuff here) until she lost her mind. For whatever reason… she hunts them.
I remember in the first part of the book she finds one in a museam. And it tries to seduce/ kill her. She has an amulet or something so she can see through their spells. And then later she somehow accidently bonds herself to one of the kings. But that’s about it…
I believe the cover was all one color…. green…. or red? Don’t remember much unfortunately…. If this rings a bell for anyone, please let me know.
Thanks 🙂
Am not sure but i think it’s The Fae Chronicles
Book 1:Fighting destiny
I’m looking for a book about two people (a woman and man) who are decaying together underground after dying. I think it’s written in a journal form, with different memories and recollections of the two people at different stages of disintegration.
I once listened to an audiobook, the main character comes across a dog that can communicate with him. Talk to him. I thought it was by Dean Kontz but after searching, I am probably wrong. I think it had a single-word title. I am pretty sure the box it came in was blue and black.
This sounds like it could be “Watchers” by Dean Koontz? How did the dog communicate and was his name Einstein?
Could it be Devoted by Dean Koontz with the main character being a kid named Woody?
Ooh I’ve never even heard of that one! Sounds good…Now I’m going to have to look for it. haha
I am desperately looking for a book I read maybe 10 yrs ago. It was a Christian/Catholic fiction. About a man that wakes up in a dark cave, violent thunderstorm raging outside, horrible flying creatures. He eventually leaves the cave to find himself in bleak landscape, meets a few other people, but one man in particular …the “woodcutter” . There is a huge canyon that can only be crossed on a huge tree that this woodsman fells across it, to reach this beautiful city on the hill. I love this book but can`t remember the title, author…poss published early/mid seventies???? Anyone recognize it? Please.

It was an adult book
I’m trying to find a children’s book I read when I was about 6/7 years old, back in the early 2000’a. It was about a girl who went inside the mall during Christmas and she saw this store owner wrapping gifts so beautiful but after wrapping so many she ran out of wrapping paper so the girl had the brilliant idea of using recyclable newspaper to wrap presents and still make them beautiful. Owner went with it and everyone had nice wrapped presents.
Hey so I was literally just looking for this book too (and idk if you had found it again already), but I finally found it! It’s Katie Kazoo Switcheroo: Holly Jolly’s Christmas!
I read a book maybe 15 years ago. The main character is a teenage girl who lives with her father. She wants to become an actress like her mother who died when she was a child. The story revolves around her teenage years and I vaguely remember that she used to love to go swimming to a public pool but her classmates making fun of her and also that she is poor. I remember that she works after school at a beauty salon and something about saving money for a photo-shoot that can help her in becoming an actress. Somehow she loses the money but ends up getting a free photo-shoot at the salon. She is described a having “swimmer’s arms” and that a halter dress looks good on her. There also might have been something about her resembling a famous Hollywood actress in her looks. She later on runs away to Hollywood where she ends up finding more about her mother and discovers some kind of connection with the famous actress she looks like. She ends up returning home and getting married to her love. This was set in older times, maybe sixties or seventies.
I am trying to remember the name of a book that I read in a college course, specifically English 1102. This is what I can remember of the plot: A jazz/some sort of musician who was famous passed away, and upon his death his wife goes away to their vacation home for some peace and quiet along with some letters that he left for her. She wanted to be able to mourn his death away from the press, as he was a famous musician. The police found out from the autopsy of the husband’s body that he was transgender and had been binding his breasts. The son of this couple finds out about this and becomes upset that he did not know his father “was a girl” and distances himself from his mother. The transgender musician in this book was based on a real person, but the character went by a different name. If you have any idea what this book is please help me out, thank you!
Hey, sorry might be a long shot but I just looked up “transgender jazz musician had a book about” on google and the first result that came up was a book called ‘Trumpet’ by Jackie Kay which was fiction but based on Transgender Jazz Musician Billy Tipton hope this helps 🙂
I am looking for a book I read back in 2010-2014. It’s set in a very rural area of scotland. Wolves have been reintroduced but there is a very severe winter and the wolves attack the people living in this rural area because of lack of food. I remember a farmer wants revenge on the wolf pack but I think the farmer dies as well. I’d be very grateful if anyone could help with suggestions please and many thanks
I am trying to find this book that she believes she’s human that she doesn’t have a wolf. Her grandfather has kept her homeschooled and she is just now going to college and she has to go to the party to help the alpha find his mate.

I forgot title of this book that I read the first few pages of. It starts of with this man living by himself in London when, a hitman/murderer enters his home dressed in all black to try and kill him. The murderer apprehends him and while he is left unconscious the killer begins to tie a rope to a wooden beam across the ceiling. Much to the guys luck as the killer makes his strangulation seem like a suicide, the beam breaks and he’s able to get some air and he leaps out his large window and starts running. The killer follows him but the guy manages to catch a bus in time where he then falls unconscious and ends up in a hospital where he pretends to have amnesia as he doesn’t trust anyone. He says the only thing he remembers of the killer are his eyes. That’s as far as I can remember, I’ve tried to search it with the few key points but no luck. Hopefully someone here might know what it’s called. Thank you in advance and I’ll keep looking on my end too.

I am looking for a book that would probably be considered a teens book. It is about a boy that loses his father. His father is in the military and goes missing. I’m pretty sure the father is found in a cave under rocks or something like that. He is missing for days and the media is covering the story but the boy doesn’t know it. His mom has been acting strange and his aunt comes to stay with them but he doesn’t know why. The boy has his electronics taken away from him and is grounded but decides one day after school to turn on the television while his mom isn’t home. He sees the news about his dad and how they are announcing how he has been found. His mom walks in and it’s confirmed that it’s his father. I remember that he was really interested in planes and particularly helicopters. Him and his dad put models together I think. I think the cover looks like you’re looking out a window on part of it. There may be a helicopter on the other part. I wanna say the cover was like a blue green but I don’t know for sure. I would so appreciate it if anyone could point me in the right direction!

I am looking for two books. The first one I can only remember how the cover looks. It’s a dark cover (maybe black) and on the cover there is a very detailed mirror with faces/skulls or vines looped around it and coming out the mirror is a hand and maybe a witch (I’m not sure) but for sure a hand is somewhere in the cover. It’s a middle grade scary book I believe. I read it around 2012 or 2013. The other book is most likely also by the same author (not positive though) and it’s about this family that goes to visit this farm type of place where people ride on these carriages that takes them around the farm and the parents are offered this cider and once they drink it they go on the ride and something happens to where the parents can’t leave the place or they are frozen in place and the only people that can help the parents are these kids so they escape the farm type place and go around the town that it’s in and try to break the curse that is happening to a bunch of more people and I think there is an evil witch or something of that sort involved and is trying to catch those kids. Plz help.

This book was published in the late 90’s. I keep thinking it was called Red7 or 7Red, an autobiography of a very troubled man who was mentally and s*xually abused as a child growing up in Florida. I can remember a picture of him sitting on his grandfather’s lap either on the cover or inside flap. This picture looks like a newspaper article with yellow/ red tone to it. I believe he mentions a girlfriend named Susan and her parents also.

I’m trying to find a book that I can’t remember the title nor the author of the book. It’s (if I remember correctly) a romantic comedy about a girl searching for Mr. Right. I believe the character’s name is Emma. The cover is all white with a frog wearing a crown, and I believe he’s sitting on a purple pillow. Can anyone help me find it. I’ve tried a couple of Google searches with what I could describe in the search engine.
I read a book where an Earl was killed for his title and money and his heir, a daughter, hides from his attacker at a bakery where she meets a gentleman who wants to marry her even though he thinks she is a nobody. The gentleman is a 2nd born son and his mother has a book where she keeps track of a females wealth and lineage. I really liked this book and would love to read it again so if anyone knows the name and author or even if you can add a little extra words like character names or lines I would appreciate that information.
3 books published in 1980’s about a prudish magic wizard who inherits father’s immoral wizard realm
Hello ! I read a book a good few years back and it was about a family who fled to Libya from Italy during the fascist regime and the story followed their life in Libya, in particular the son in the family. It was about how they lived along side the Arabs and there was romances and violence in it. The start of the book began with a young Arab girl walking along a path from her employers house to her own home which was a shack and she never arrived and her body was found having been r—- and murdered. In the end the family had to return to Italy when Libya gained independence around 1943. The story was fiction but based on the facts that was going on in Italy/Libya at the time. I think it was written by and Italian author and translated into English and there may have been two books – very vague I know but if it rings a bell with anyone I would love to read it again, it was a wonderful book !
I’m looking for a book that I start to read but I never finished it it was about a Italian mafia boss who was trying to hide for a while and live a normal life Without money ,he fall in love with a simple girl but her family do not accept her boifrend because he could not offer her e good life after that she left her family and married him but after the wedding night he end up dead in a motorcycle accident …after that she is alone and try to work hard for buying a grave for him .. then she try to kill her self but her bestfrend save her ..she finds out she is pragnent she move in france ….and after some years he is back for her and find out he have a son … this is all I remember I’ve searching for the book for a month now but I couldn’t find it ..

I’m looking for a novel about a woman who keeps shifting between two different realities every time she wakes up. In one, she is married and has a family. In the other, she almost met her husband but never did, and did not have a family with him. The fantasy of a life without her family is a way of coping with a disaster that she can’t face, an accident in which she loses loved ones (maybe her parents). I think the novel was popular, and it’s not that old. Maybe published after 2000. Aspects of the first-person style, the gradual revelation of what exactly the mystery is, are similar to Before I Go to Sleep by S J Watson, a novel I found while hunting for the one I can’t find. But although the husband is a focus in each, the actual story is very different.
Is it “in five years” by:Rebecca Serle?
That’s not it. Thanks for the suggestion. There is no premonition about the future or shifting in time (to five years in the future, according to descriptions of the book In Five Years). In the novel I’m thinking of, the woman is shifting between two present-day versions of her life: one in which she married her husband years ago, and one in which they never married. The life without her husband and children turns out to be a fantasy that protects her from knowledge of a terrible tragedy.
Children’s fiction book. I think I read it in grade 4, 5, or 6 in the late 1980s.
I think they may have been on a class field trip. The main character of the story was a boy who started a number of businesses. The first was small, and made just enough money to start the second, which made just enough to start the third, and so on, with each business being bigger than the previous one.
One of the ventures, the boy rented a cow from a farmer, then sold city folks one minute to milk the cow. The people who paid to milk the cow worked really hard for 1 minute, then were disappointed at the end to see how little milk the got, and so bought another minute of milking time. The farmer joked with the boy that these city folks didn’t know that they’ll never get much milk in just one minute.
At the end, I think the boy entrepreneur got caught by his teacher (I think they were on a field trip) and had his profits confiscated. Once he could get away again, he started back with his first business again. And that was the end.
If you know what book this is I would really appreciate it – I’d love to have my kids read it now.
The book is about a boy who is a secret agent, spy or something like that. The cover was orange I think.
The first paragraphs are a summary of what his job is. I believe it starts with a short story of the main character getting close to a boy who he played baseball with, and he kills the boys parent.
The plot is in summary, he has to go to a private school ( I think ) and get close to this specific girl because he believes her father is evil. He slowly falls in love with her.
Turns out he finds the father is innocent during a party and the girl is evil.
This is a series book I believe. I think the second book takes place at a military base or something.
Thanks in advance
I can’t remember the title and just a brief sumarize of the synopsis…. I tried google but without any results
It was about that if you read it you might die after finishing it (like, for real) the cover was kinda beige like some sort of old book and there were no words or title (as far as I remember) beside that brief synopsis…. can someone help? I tried to buy it at that time but I couldn’t and when I got back to the library it was already sold…
I’ve been looking for this book for a while now, I read it when I was younger. I forgot which dynasty it was in, but I know it was ancient China. I believe the woman was a princess or some type of royalty, but I am not too sure. There was a festival, where she met a man and wanted to marry him. She ended up dying, and her tomb was left unmarked, so she was forced to roam purgatory. When in purgatory, she found out her sister ended up with the man. I remember scenes when they made “cloud and rain,” and younger children had to bear the pain of foot binding. I never finished reading the book, and now I am looking for it all the time. If you know which book I am talking about or think you know it, please let me know.

I’m looking for a book, I read it a few years ago but I can’t remember the title ♀️
It’s about a family. A man and a wife who have children. 3 girls and 1 boy. The boy though is a nephew of the man so the family sort of adopts him. The woman is a horrible mother and she mistreats her children. Beats them up and gives them all types of odd works to do around the home. She also hates her husband and doesn’t really accord him the respect he deserves as the man of the house . At some point the young boy dies (I think his name is Shay, I’m not quite sure though). To cut the story short at the end the lady gets arrested together with the husband coz in a way he helped her in some of her sick plots.
Can anyone identify the book please and tell me the title.
Kindly.
The story starts off with ” My father sold me…”
Was he sold to a vampire?

I remember a book I read in the early 2000s I bought from the Scholastic book fair. There was a girl on the front and I want to say she had red hair and purple shoes that were too big. I remember reading that she found a suitcase under her dad’s bed and she tried them on. They belonged to the woman her dad was cheating with. Cannot remember the name for the life of me. Paperback YA book but more preteen age.

I’m looking for a book about a kid who died in his sleep or at least they think he died in his sleep. I think it was from natural causes or from diseases or may have committed suicide but a guy felt guilty because he had been mean to him. There is a girl that the kid liked but she did not like him back. He once baked a cake or something for her and her mother received it. After he died she was watching a crime show or something and heard the words: You have the right to remain silent. You have the right to remain silent. It switched perspectives between the characters. Before he died he was not been popular but everyone new him after he died. She stopped speaking after that for a long time. The book I had a black cover a paper airplane and a red apple. I might have been called Flyed but I have not been able to find it.
Never mind i found it it’s called flying solo by Ralph Fletcher
I’m gonna check this out omg
I’m looking for a book where I only know the plot and the book cover but I can’t remember the exact title of the book. It was night and a girl was stitching something and her younger brother went into the room to watch her stitch. Soon after that, they began to feel cold because the window was open so she stood up to close it and they heard a thunder strike. She told her brother not to panic and ordered him to go get a flashlight. When the lights came back, his sister screamed because she found that the cat she had been stitching was gone. The two of them asked each other if they were dreaming or not. Long story short, they found that a black cat with three yellow stripes on it’s left side was sitting on the window. The cover at the end of the book was of a black cat escaping a picture frame because the girl managed to stitch back the cat.
There was also a scene I remember where a woman had to dress up as a cat but as soon as a cat entered the room, she began sneezing because she was allergic and her line was, “Wid Sumbudy get me a tishoo?”
I remember a chapter in the book being called, “The chase in the carnival.”
There was also a dog involved, a Doberman whose name was Luthor.
The genre would be Mystery/Adventure. I can’t remember the title of the book though as it’s been so long since I’ve read it.
The two siblings have been chasing the cat around for the entire book
ANY HELP WOULD BE REALLY APPRECIATED

I read a historical romance book in the late 90s or early 2000, about a set of male twins, who love visiting brothels. They were distinguished gentlemen with titles. It was based in London in the 1800s. The twins were very eligible bachelors who had women fawning over them constantly. I believe one of their names was “Harm”. If I am remembering correctly, the book had an orange cover and was paperback.

I am looking for a book series, it is a biography of the authors life in 1950’s Ireland, cover is a black and white picture, it stars as the author being a child and very poor, she steals butter to make money for the family, she writes as she speaks ” me Ma and Da” Thanks for any help
Could it possibly be part of the series by Martha Long? The “Ma” series or however you’d call it. It does sound very much like “Me, He sold me for a pack of cigarettes” or one of those books.
It’s written in that sorta way too, example
“The ma makes sure I go everywhere wit Jackser an then tell her if he was lookin at women or talkin te his friends about them, or maybe if he was seein one. I always tell her he was doin nothin. I learnt me lesson good an proper when he nearly threw Charlie over the banisters. So I’m not tellin them anythin tha will start a row. I tell them nothin about anythin, and Jackser beats inta me tha I’m never te tell anyone wha happens at home. So I don’t answer questions people ask me, like, where’d ye get the black eyes, or, wha’s them zig-zag blue marks on yer legs an arms an back? I say nothin.”
Yes that is it! Thank you!
I meant to write “Ma, He sold me for a pack of cigarettes” and not “Me” sorry
I am looking for a book about a 12 year old girl visiting grandparents at a beach and she meets a 15 year old ghost boy with a ghost brother named John?
I don’t remember the title of this book, or the author, and I think the cover was like blue, maybe a beach or a sky? I remember it’s about a tween girl who is visiting her grandparents at a beach area, and she goes out for runs a lot. Then she meets a 15 year old boy who she thinks is kinda cute, and they eventually start going out for runs together. He even tries to guess her name at first, I think. At the end of the book the girl finds out that he’s a ghost who died in some shipwreck (I think), and he has a younger brother named John who is also a ghost. At the very end of the book he kisses her while she’s at a hospital for some reason. I don’t remember the title, but I read this in 2018. I don’t know when this book was published, If you know what it’s called, please help! Thank you. Oh, and also she writes to her mom and dad a lot (they don’t live together, I think?). And the plot might have been that the girl was looking into a ghost memorial, and the boy hung out with her in hopes to find his ghost brother too. If you know this book, please help me! Appreciate it!
This is probably not the book but your description reminds me of a book called TJ’s ghost that I loved as a kid. I don’t remember much other than it took place on the Oregon coast and there was a lost ring involved too.
I’m trying to find a book where the (4 or 5) main characters are sent to an institution on an island that no one else knows about and they get powers. Evil organizations are looking for treasures.
I don’t think that’s a very good description, but here’s more from later on in the books:
At some point, the main characters get lost in ancient Egypt where time moves slowly compared to the real world. They also at some point find themselves in Greece where at some point a statue comes to life.
Sorry if it’s not that great of detail, it has been a long time since I’ve read it.

I’m looking for a book I read in the mid 60s. After the death of her husband, a young woman must raise her teen or preteen daughter alone with few of the material resources that were available to her prior to the husband’s death. The three of them have lived in a “big” house in the city, and summered at their much smaller home at the coast. I think the father worked in the city, even during the summer, but would come to the cottage to be with his family on weekends. After the father’s death, the mother sells the house and moves them to the summer house. She takes a job to make ends meet. Maybe in a restaurant. The daughter does not take her new situation well at all. She misses shopping where and when she wants and eating eating where and what she likes. She’s embarrassed that her mother is now a “working mother.” After much frustration on both sides, the mother says to the daughter, “We aren’t summer people anymore.” I’ve remembered “something” about this book for (probably) five decades. Can anyone help me find it? I really want to read it again?
Thank you so much!! This really helped! I used Google’s advanced book search and I found what I was looking for on the first try!
I like the suggestion of going to a library and asking a librarian if they recognize the plot of the book you are looking for. My wife loves books and I want to show her one that I read when I was in elementary school but I can’t find it anywhere.

I loved this novel but cannot remember the title or author.
It’s about a wet nurse that swaps poor boy and girl twins with royal boy and girl twins born on the same night because the royal family is spoiled and entitled. She raises the royal twins on vegetables and with love so they grow up to be decent people. She does this to swap them back when all the twins are grown.
i cannot recall much of the book but i know i’d love to read it again.
the book started with a young girl leaving her home town by bus. she met a girl at the bus stop who she ended up traveling with if i recall correctly. she ended up being an exotic dance or just working in the club. i believe at some point she owner/manager of the club tried hitting on her. towards the end of the novel she finds out the guy she fell in love with was a detective or a cop . ugh i wish i could remember more.
book cover was light blue. story was about how very quite little town was being bought up and changed by summer people coming in. A veteran used tactics he learned to sabatage boats & docks . Grandfather hired young girl to teach him computer skills which he ended up throwing in water because he got addicted to p*** -when he searched for “gift for a young girl for her birthday”. I have been haunted by story for 10-20 years . Founded in my local library -it looked so innocent -story line was shocking at the time. Would make a great movie or micro series now .

Searching for a coming-of-age type book I read like 3 years ago, about a girl named Alice, her brother Bruce, and her teacher (probably more characters I can’t recall). She really wanted one teacher (I’m sure her name was Ms. Cole), though ended up getting one she didn’t like (can’t remember the name), but she started to like the teacher later in the story. There was a scene in the book where Alice was at a school costume party, and she accidentally kicked Ms. Cole. She’s given a ring by her teacher at the end of the year as a gift of sorts, after a different kid was given the old globe she wanted from the classroom. Alice mentioned something about saints once, maybe wanting to be a saint (?), but her brother told her you had to be dead before you could be a saint. I think there was a part of the book where she stays with her aunt or uncle or something, and she has her first period. I’m 90% sure the book was part of a series. Thanks

I had stopped reading it because I thought It was to much but now I want to read it so if you can help find it that would be wonderful.

I read a book a dear friend lent me – it was a slim volume novel, by a female author, about a sort of hapless guy in England whose wife (or girlfriend) was really using him, he goes on a walking holiday in Germany very ill prepared and stays at a guesthouse where the wife in the husband/wife couple running it is being unfaithful. The book is probably about 5-8 years old. My friend has since passed away and I wanted to let her grand-niece know the title/author of book. Sorry can’t recall any characters names…..
I am looking for a book my mom used to have. I think it is called Angel. It’s about a little girl who was really ill and dies. Her parents wrote the book and he was a famous actor in westerns I believe.
Angel Unaware. Written by Dale Evans about their daughter (Dale Evans and Roy Rogers) I think she had Down’s Syndrome and died at 2 and Dale wrote this as if she, the daughter was in Heaven telling God about her experiences on earth. I think her name was Robyn but not sure. Very touching book.
I’m looking for the name of the fiction book that has a fox trickster character named Whiskey Jack and the main story is about a house that jumps around into different dimensions and times.

It’s about a teenage girl who’s family is living on a bus along with another family that travels with them in another vehicle maybe also a bus. They traveled around the us. The other families son is her love interest. She somehow got a “job” as an assistant for a famous artist and got into a college. she’s fresh out of high school, she was home schooled. It was published around 5 years ago or less. Audience is aimed towards teens.
I watch this story’s trailer in Instagram . The main hero’s teacher passed away and he have to take care of his life family.

Hello there! This is my 1st comment here so I just wanted to give a quick shout out and tell you I truly enjoy reading your blog posts. Can you recommend any other blogs/websites/forums that deal with the same topics? Thanks!
I’ve been quite desperate to find this book for awhile, No websites I’ve found so far have helped me in any way.
This book is the story of how an boy lost his parents as an baby, And has been living with his only family ever since, His grandmother.
And soon when he grows to become an middle schooler, His grandmother falls from an tree while picking fruit, And she is sent to the hospital.
The boy, Who had been living on a farm his entire life, Is sent to an normal school where he finally sees technology, Or anything else he hadn’t seen his entire life in the country.
He befriends an bullied student, And he continues his crazy life while doing crazy things.
Does this book happen to take place in Arkansas, or is Arkansas anywhere in the title? Do u remember if the cover is light blue?
Short story collection – I thought that this was from Frederick Forsyth and checked – it is not. There is this mother, whose child attends a school. The father’s details I cannot recall – I think she is a single mother. A working mother who goes off site for long periods frequently. She is excluded by the school mum cliques. Her child might have been bullied. In the climax, we find that she is some kind of spy/secret agent/assassin of sorts – she lets herself into the house of the school mother who has been troubling her and arranges the death of the mistress of husband or someone and leaves evidence to pin the blame on the woman. I think she wedged a window open and slipped in later at night. And got some undergarments belonging to one woman and placed it in the other woman’s house.

I am trying to recall the name of a coming of age type novel written by an Iowa author who probably had but a one time claim to fame with his book. The subject of his life was the subject of a film later in the early 2000’s or late nineties. Film or book title or both?
Did you try looking for big authors in Iowa in the 2000’s it may bring it up for you especially since Iowa is small and there isn’t that many authors coming from Iowa..

Book set during World War 2 in Poland, with a young boy, presumably orphaned, named Jan. The story involves his travels in search of a sibling (I believe) and the people he encounters along the way. Near the end of the war he encountered an Allied soldier who gave him several chocolate bars, and told him the war was nearly over. I read this book several times in grade school (2nd half of the 60’s) and would dearly love to read it again, if it can be found. Can anyone help? Thank you.

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.

The book I’m looking for has a girl who is at a bar one night and hooks up with this guy who brings out the sub in her and tells/shows her about BDSM.

I think the title started as “ The diary of” and I think it was a girls name and the word vampire in the title. I was like 14 when I read it but I really need to find it!! Help
Was the story similar to this
a girl sees on the news that a person has escaped from a mental hospital. Later on when her parents are away she throws a party and he shows up but disappears. As the story goes on he ends up hiding in her attic and as it turns out he is a vampire. I’m not sure if they start dating or what but i remember there was a semi steamy scene where he pushed her up against a wall and was kissing her. I remember for sure it describes the different temperatures of his kisses and he tries to bite her and hurts her and i don’t remember the rest. And then something with a street lamp either way i remember specifically a window at the end of the hallway was important, he lived in her attic, and he kissed her.
Thank you for your efforts but sad to say “its not the one”

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.
I’m looking for a children’s book a woman called labbanice or laddanice .. that may be the title as well but I can’t find it online.

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
I had this book, it was my favorite book EVER! I think it was by Ingrid Law but i searched up all her books and cant seem to find it. Its about a girl at the begining of the story her house with her family gets destroyed by a hurricane/tornado. I never got to finish the book because i had to return it but it was so good! She and her family had to be headed to a homeless shelter and im pretty sure before that they also had an under ground bunker! If anyone know what im talking about please let me know! 🙂
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

This took me quite awhile to find because I too wanted to remember what the name of the book was called to read it again. The name of the book is “Reason to Breathe”.
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.

Im trying to find this book but I cant remember the name or author all I know is that its about this girl I think her name is Brittany and she has s*x with this guy and she ends up having a miscarriage and then years later she sees him again in seattle for some birthday party or something and they both get stuck in an elevator. 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?
No, But thank you 🙂
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

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 a
