So I need help picking a novel to do a book report on (which is part of my grade for my final). The requirements are that it has to be a novel from a 21st century American novelist.......................................... .......I prefer something short...............Any responses are appreciated.

It's a really great book, and I learned tons from it. Not sure if it's appropriate for a junior though.  |

I'm not sure if thats appropriate for your grade level, but it was an awesome book. Not to mention written by a bassist.

lowsound | Unfortunately I saw the movie before I had a chance to read the book. That kind of kills the imagination. Choke is an awesome book. I liked Invisible Monsters too. |

It's been sitting on the crapper for months now. I've read four or five books since I picked it up. Many people like it. |
