zimom Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I need some recommendations for books through the Kindle Lending Library which is free as a benefit for Amazon Prime members. I see the Hunger Games series there (but the subject matter disturbs me so I just don't think I can read those), but I just can't seem to find other 'good' books. I'm brand new to Amazon Prime so maybe I just haven't figured it out yet. Recommendations please as I would really like to get all my $$ from Prime. Books I have recently read and really enjoyed are: Jodi Piccoult Charles Martin Sarah's Key Nicholas Sparks Anita Shreve The Help Water for Elephants Hopefully that will give you an idea of the types of books I like to read.

Guest Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Yeah, unless you're a fan of Hunger Games (I'm not), I haven't seen anything else that is current and popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ottakee Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 A few I have enjoyed (but not sure if they are still free) are: Walking On Broken Glass We'll Have the Summer They Almost Always Come Home The Narrow Path Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimtaxi234 Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I finished "Hunger Games" yesterday and I am now half way through the 2nd book. I resisted reading HG probably for the same reason you have, but my daughter again asked me to read it. My 14-years-old daughter said HG was about government control and socialism with a brutal story of teens killing other teens as the vehicle to tell the story about an out of control government. Well, that still sounded horrible and didn't tempt me, but because she asked, I picked it up and started reading. I'm glad I finally read HG because we had a wonderful discussion about the book. It was a difficult read (probably because I have a daughter just a little younger than the main character), but I did finish it quickly. I am glad I already had the 2nd book handy because the story picks up shortly after book 1 ends. While neither of the books so far would be in my list of "favorites", I am glad I read them.

Montana Peach Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Prior's 'The Everything Latin Book' is available to borrow as well. I picked it up a few days ago to read through as I am starting working on Latin myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zimom Posted March 2, 2012 Author Share Posted March 2, 2012 Thanks for everyone's suggestions. Anyone else have any books to suggest? Do the books tend to rotate on and off the library? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
