7. Ghost Rider by Neil Peart
8. Snow Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See
9. Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen
10. Still Alice by Lisa Genova
11. The Book of Bright Ideas by Sandra Kring
12. Dream When You're Feeling Blue by Elizabeth Berg
13. One Thousand White Women: the Journals of May Dodd by Jim Fergus
14. Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert
15. Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult

Being a bit obsessive/compulsive about "books to read" lists, and seeing that you've recommended a few titles that I too have enjoyed (Red Tent, Water for Elephants, anything by Elizabeth Berg), I'm copying your list now to add to my growing list of things to read when I retire.... or maybe a "reading sabbatical" from work could be arranged??? Thanks for sharing!
