*Narcissus in Chains by Laurell K. Hamilton

*A Million Little Pieces by James Frey

*Boy Meets Girl by Meg Cabot

*The Probable Future by Alice Hoffman

*The Idiot Girls Action-Adventure Club by Laurie Notaro

*Dude, Where's My Country? by Michael Moore

*My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult

*Shadow Divers by Robert Kurson

*Sammy's Hill by Kristin Gore

*Hidden by Paul Jaskunas

*America by Jon Stewart

*The Know-It-All by A.J. Jacobs

*The Other Boleyn Girl by Phillipa Gregory

I was pleasantly surprised to see so many nonfic books creep onto my list, seeing as how I have a pretty major bias towards fiction. Cool. :-)
