The Twins
1.  The Twins by Tessa de Loo

Border Crossing
3.  Border Crossing by Pat Barker
The list author says:
  "Can a child who kills truly understand what it's doing? Is it right to try a child as an adult? This book won't give you the answers but it will definitely make you think about it yourself."
Used & New from: £0.01

House Of Leaves
4.  House Of Leaves by Mark Z Danielewski
The list author says:
  "The story itself isn't all that it's hyped up to be but it's still quite good and the book's graphic layout alone makes it worth reading it. Should set new standards for how you can present text."
£16.25   Used & New from: £13.08

I Heard the Owl Call My Name (Picador Books)
7.  I Heard the Owl Call My Name (Picador Books) by Margaret Craven
The list author says:
  "The characters are somewhat underdeveloped and it reads more like an argument for the original Native American way of life than a novel but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The ending made me cry."
£5.59   Used & New from: £0.01

Under the Skin
8.  Under the Skin by Michel Faber
The list author says:
  "An original and incredibly interesting idea put to very little use. It's worth reading just to experience the scenario he creates but only if you're able to live with an almost complete lack of plot."
Used & New from: £0.01

Eleven Minutes
9.  Eleven Minutes by Paulo Coelho
The list author says:
  "Sensual and a little bit sad but also very philosophical in a personal and unpretentious way. It made me see a lot of things from a new perspective and understand all the rave about Paulo Coelho."
Used & New from: £0.01

Shutter Island
10.  Shutter Island by Dennis Lehane
The list author says:
  "Dennis Lehane is in a league of his own! This book takes the thriller genre to a whole new level and you wouldn't be able to guess the (very realistic) ending if your life depended on it."
Used & New from: £0.01

The Nanny Diaries : A Novel
11.  The Nanny Diaries : A Novel by Nicola Kraus
The list author says:
  "Not as funny as you'd think. Actually quite sad and even a little bit scary as it shows how egocentrical very rich people can be to the point where their children grow up emotionally deprived."
£6.74   Used & New from: £0.01

Artemis Fowl: The Eternity Code
12.  Artemis Fowl: The Eternity Code by Eoin Colfer
The list author says:
  "13-year-old criminal masterminds, SWAT team fairies, centaur electronic buffs, and stone-eating trolls - what's not to love? :) This book is a great ride! Read the first two as well."

The Holy Man
13.  The Holy Man by Susan Trott
The list author says:

A Heart of Stone
14.  A Heart of Stone by Renate Dorrestein
The list author says:
  "A shocking story of the consequences of untreated puerperal psychosis in a time when it was unknown. Absolutely heartbreaking and therefore a little hard to get through sometimes but so worth it."
