Top Ten Books That Left Me with My Mouth Hanging Open

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.
This week's topic is:  The Top Ten Books that Left Me with My Mouth Hanging Open

1.)    An Echo in the Bone by Diana Gabaldon-When I got to the end of this book I seriously thought my book was short pages. 
2.)    My Sister’s Keeper by Jodi Picoult-If you read my review of this book, then you know I HATED the end of this book.  I was sobbing and yelling WTF??!! at the same time.
3.)    Forever by Maggie Stiefvater-When this ended, I couldn’t believe it.  There were so many of my questions left unanswered!!
4.)    Demonglass by Rachel Hawkins-This had a crazy cliffhanger ending!
5.)    Dreamfever by Karen Marie Moning-The end of this book left me yelling NONONONO! 
6.)    Shutter Island by Dennis Lehane-I never saw this coming.
7.)    We Need to Talk about Kevin by Lionel Shriver-I had an idea of what was going to happen at the end of this book but it was even worse than I expected.
8.)    The DaVinci Code by Dan Brown-I guess I wasn’t paying close attention because I didn’t see that ending coming.
I could only come up with eight this week.  What books left you with your mouth hanging open?

  3. Demonglass was such a cliffhanger. One of the biggest ones I've read. I'm one of the few who loved Forever's ending. I like the openness of it.

  4. I felt the same way about Echo in the Bone, talk about cliffhangers! I cannot wait for the next one to come out.

  5. I have a lot of these on my TBR list. I think I felt the same with The DaVinci Code, but for me I was kind of like- 'That's it?'

Review and Giveaway: "Distant Signs" by Anne Richter

Synopsis: Distant Signs is an intimate portrait of two families spanning three generations amidst turbulent political change, behind and beyond the Berlin Wall. In 1960s East Germany, Margret, a professor’s daughter from the city, meets and marries Hans, from a small village in Thuringia. The couple struggle to contend with their different backgrounds, and the emotional scars they bear from childhood in the aftermath of war. As East German history gradually unravels, with collision of the personal and political, their two families’ hidden truths are quietly revealed. An exquisitely written novel with strongly etched characters that stay with you long after the book is finished and an authentic portrayal of family life behind the iron curtain based on personal experience of the author who is East German and was 16 years old at the fall of the Berlin Wall. Why do families repeat destructive patterns of behaviour across generations? Should the personal take precedence over

Top Ten Books I Recommend The Most

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish . This week's topic:  Top Ten Books I Recommend the Most 1.) The Bronze Horseman by Paullina Simons   2.) Outlander by Diana Gabaldon           If you read my blog at all, you know I love these two books so much!  I am not afraid to suggest them to anyone who I think might enjoy them. 3.) The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins - I was definitely recommending this book left and right when the first movie came out. 4.) The Fault in Our Stars by John Green 5.) A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin           These are two books that I just recently started recommending but they are books that can appeal to anyone so they are easy picks when someone asks for a recommendation. 6.) Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead  - I get a little embarrassed when I recommend this book to people but seriously, just because it has vampires does not mean it is like Twilight. 7.) The Giver by Lois

Book Blog Hop (11)

The Book Blogger Hop is a weekly meme hosted by Jen at Crazy for Books .  It's a way to meet other bloggers and check out some cool new blogs. This week's question is:  "Highlight one book you have received this week that you can't wait to dig into!" Okay, I have a confession to make.  I have been so busy this week that I have not had time to get any new books.  I have several waiting for me at the library but I won't be able to pick them up until this weekend.  : ( Did you all get any exciting new books this week?
