I remember the Ashes series ... when the author killed all the main characters in the final book. I was sad and angry. I had decades "invested" in knowing those people. LOL
Almost everything I read touches me in some way.. I am currently reading Growing up Bin Laden... with Bin Laden's wife and son.. before that I read Jamaica Inn - the classic.. that touched me... before that I read the Serpent of Venice, a spoof.. that was very touching as I've visited Venice.. Seriously everything touches me
most definitely... Every spiritual book that I have listed in my Blog on Meditation, has touched me very deeply in my Heart and Soul. Truth ignites a deep understanding within us that cannot be denied. Probably the one that touches me most is..."Play of Consciousness" by Swami Muktananda. It's cool when your heart gets touched... such a sublime feeling... I've never read the Gone series but glad you got touched...haha
"A Mother's Reckoning: Living in the Aftermath of Tragedy" by Sue Klebold (the mother of Dylan Klebold, one of the two Columbine High School shooters in 1999 in Littleton, Colorado, USA)
"The Four Agreements (a Toltec Wisdom Book)" by Don Miguel Ruiz
and one that has touched me for a very long time -- the short story by Conrad Aiken "Silent Snow, Secret Snow"
