Book Buzz Meme

I was tagged for this by Booking Mama and boy, was this a hard one for me. Here are the rules:

My Friend Amy says: I am going to list three categories of books. 3 MUST Read Books, 3 Keep Your Eyes on These, and 3 Look For These Soon. Keeping with the theme, I am going to tag at least 3 bloggers. They should put these same lists on their blog but SUBTRACT one book from each list and ADD one of their own. Then they should tag at least 3 more bloggers. It will be fun to see how the lists change as it goes around the blogosphere. Please come back to this post and leave a comment so I can see how the lists are changing as they go around the blogosphere. Since this is Book Buzz...please keep your lists to titles released in 2007-2009. (Heather's note: I'm italicizing the ones I added.)

Ok, here's why this is hard for me: I don't read many new books. If you were to ask me about a MUST READ book I'd likely suggest something written 10-100 years ago! But I did some research and here are my answers ...


3 MUST Read Books:
Matters of Faith by Kristy Keirnan (Heather's review and author interview)
Somebody Else's Daughter by Elizabeth Brundage
The Lace Reader by Brunonia Barry (here's Julie's review)

3 Keep Your Eyes on These:
Seeing Me Naked by Liza Palmer
Wife in the North, by Judith O'Reilly
The Gargoyle by Andrew Davidson (Heather's note: I agree! I won a copy and it's on the way now!)
3 Look For These Soon:
The Good Thief by Hannah Tinti
Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay
A Memory of Light by Robert Jordan & Brandon Sanderson (Heather's note: The 12th and final book in the Wheel of Time series, coming in 2009 - I can't wait!)

I don't usually tag people for memes but, since I know she loves to be tagged, I'll tag Trish from Hey Lady! Whatcha Readin'?.

I'm short two more players ... any volunteers? Let me know and I'll officially tag you!
