  0 0 Here are some to try: As Simple as Snow by Gregory Galloway It's got some excellent mix tape lists, a strange little mystery you need to work out on your own and a great first line:"Anna Cayne had moved here in August, just before our sophmore year in high school, but by February she had, one by one, killed everyone in town." The House of Tomorrow by Peter Bognanni Reminiscent of the humor of John Green, this story about a truly sheltered (he grew up homeschooled by his grandmother in a geodesic dome) and the punk rock teen with cancer who becomes his friend is a very funny, poignant coming-of-age novel. Rats Saw God by Rob Thomas I know it's old and the cover is lame, but I think Perks may have taken some cues from this one. A cult classic teen novel. Scream Queens from the Dead Sea by Gilad Elbom A truly strange fiction debut that instantly made me think of Palahniuk. Beat the Reaper by Josh Bazell For a book that goes off the deep end into comic violence, try this adrenaline-rush of a story about a doctor/hitman. mishalibrarian answered in Book Recommendations 5 months ago | Report 1 comment by Christina L… 0 0 I loved Beat the Reaper! It was like riding a Ducati on Chuckanut Drive: I wanted to go slow enough to savor the scenes, but I succumbed to the adrenaline pace of Bazell's style.
