Besides HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS, what do you think will be remembered as the "BIG BOOK" of summer 2007?

I think THE MANNY will be the "big book." Everywhere I turn, people are talking about it. It's even the beach bag contest book this time.

I think A THOUSAND SPLENDID SUNS will be the one that I remember. As soon as I finished, I wanted to share it, and talk about it with a friend. I passed the book to my daughter, and she called to talk about it before she had even finished reading.

THE MANNY by Holly Peterson, HOW TO TALK TO A WIDOWER by Jonathan Tropper and NORTH RIVER by Pete Hamill, I realize that this is overkill, however, you need one for sizzly laughs and fun, one for chuckles and a little heartbreak. And who can resist Pete Hamill?

I definitely think that the big book of the summer, other than HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS, will be Janet Evanovich's new book, LEAN MEAN THIRTEEN. I am reading it now, and so far, it is the perfect summer read. It is extremely funny; her funniest book so far. I started laughing on the first page, and have not stopped yet! It is a great, light, fun summer read! I would recommend it to anyone who needs a lift. I have been reading all of P. J. Parrish's books and am currently on the next to last one in the series --- so far. Evanovich has certainly provided me a perfect departure from the darkness of the Parrish series. They are the best books I've read in a long time, but I needed a definite book to lighten the heart and mood, and Evanovich's latest has certainly done that!

I really think that it's too soon to tell, but based on what's currently out there, I would say A THOUSAND SPLENDID SUNS by Khaled Hosseini would be the most memorable. The story of two women in a world where women have no rights is memorable, sad and haunting.

THE INVENTION OF HUGO CABRET by Brian Selznick. Amazing!

A THOUSAND SPLENDID SUNS will be the Big Book of Summer 07! I think many are intrigued by the author since he gave us such a wonderful picture of male relationships in THE KITE RUNNER. This book explores the relationship of two woman in a culture that is not familiar to many of us. I really like the development of the characters and the understanding I got about how they know themselves.

Probably, Janet Evanovich's LEAN MEAN THIRTEEN or, possibily, Khaled Hosseini's A THOUSAND SPLENDID SUNS.

I believe the other big book of the summer will be A THOUSAND SPLENDID SUNS by Khaled Hosseini, author of THE KITE RUNNER. Word of mouth dictates that this is the most anticipated book of the summer.
