Fell Back (Charlotte Zolotow Book) M. E. Kerr
HarperCollins, 1989
It stays with you
+ symbolism in fell back + Clever Mind Trap!
I actually remember this Fell much clearer than the first one. While it still offers the amazing M E Kerr ability for feeling andd drama, i don't think a science fiction reader would be disapointed with it, since it depicts a lively world with rules of it's own. Some of the ideas from this book ...

Salem Falls Jodi Picoult
Washington Square Press, 2002
Jodi Picoult Does It Again
+ A Touch of Witchery
Jodi Picoult is one of my new favorite authors. She certainly knows how to write a page-turner and how to straddle the line between "serious" and popular fiction. So far I have read Plain Truth, Harvesting the Heart, My Sister's Keeper, and this novel, Salem Falls. My favorite is a toss up between ...
