Hi Alissa,Sorry I can't post the covers/links; I'm writing this on my iPhone which doesn't let me do that. Hope you enjoy the books!
My picks for you are:-
1. The Handmaid's Tale - Margaret Atwood: one of my favourite novels. Really thought-provoking and one I wish I could teach!
2. Room - Emma Donohue: I read this last year and loved it. It was like no other book I had ever read before.
3. Bridget Jones' Diary - Helen Fielding: I'm reading this at the moment, it's a really light and easy read that I think you'll enjoy.
Christina for your three books I pick unbroken the glass magician and killing Jesus
