    Hi, this is my first time posting here and I am hoping I am in the right place! I recently read The Book Thief, A Thousand Splendid Suns, The Time Travellers Wife and The Secret River. I am currently reading The Lovely Bones. These books are out of my usual reading preferences but I really enjoyed every one of them. Does anyone know any other books that I may enjoy that would be in similar categories to the above? Thanks.

    Those books you list are all of a type.
    Here is some stuff along the same lines -

    We Need to Talk about Kevin - Lionel Shriver (hard to get into but well well worth it)
    The Kiterunner
    The Poisonwood Bible - Barbara Kingsolver
    Life of Pi - Yann Martel
    Middlesex - Jeffrey Eugenides
    The Curious Incident of the Dog at Nighttime
    Black Swan Green - David Mitchell
