CH's 50 5-Star Books + Goodreads Recommendation List - Page 2

Mostly I wanted to see what bizarre recommendations there were and I was not disappointed. 😆 Yes, Twilight (which I never plan to read) was recommended TWICE for The Giver and 1984. (?????) And I am also quite amused that Goodreads recommended a book called Clown In A Cornfield 2: Frendo Lives 😂
