My top two choices are 1) The Book Thief and then 2) Thirteen Reasons Why
The Book Thief is my top choice because I have heard many great things about it, and have been meaning to read it for a while now, so this seems like a perfect opportunity. I've also read Markus Zusak's other book, The Messenger, which I enjoyed, so I think I will enjoy this one as well. The story is set in the Holocaust, and I like reading books set in this time. I find books with a historical aspect really interesting. The fact that this book is quite long is also appealing to me, I like a book that I can really get in to.
Thirteen Reasons Why is my second choice because I think the idea of the story would make it a really compelling read that would probably deal with a lot of relevant themes in teen life, which I also enjoy reading about. It seems like there would be an element of mystery in this book too, which always makes them fun to read.
Coming to this decision was pretty easy for me, because a lot of the titles were easy to stroke off the first time, since I am not a fan of science fiction or magic. Some of the books were not too appealing to me either because of people I know that have not recommended them.
