Have you read The Hunger Games trilogy yet? This seems to be the most popular novel series of the past year. If you haven't read it yet, what are you waiting for?

This memoir will make you think twice about how we raise our children. Jeannette Walls had one of the most dysfunctional families possible. She details the oddities of her childhood with a severely ADD mom and alcoholic dreamer-dad. They never get their act together, but by great good fortune the children survive and eventually, even thrive. This book makes you cringe at the difficulties these children went through. I recommend it highly for an eye-opening experience. Available in hardcover, paperback, Kindle and audio versions.

A young writer returns home after college to become enmeshed in local society, but she's increasingly distressed by the inequalities inflicted on black maids who serve local white families.

Definitely one of the most popular novels of the last year. Available in hardback, paperback, Kindle and audio versions.
