I make lists too! There are several books on your reading list that are also on mine - imagine that! I've read Passing for Thin. I thought it was quite interesting. Olive's Ocean was fun (part of my new job description - be current on YA fiction . . . )

another list maker here! reading lolita in tehran is an amazing book. the story is just wonderful, and how she weaves the stories with the books on her reading list is very interesting. my next read is french women don't get fat. i've heard it is really good.
