It really bothers me if I can't remember the title of a book I read a long time ago, so I thought it would be a good idea to make a thread where people can post descriptions about books they've read before but can't remember the name and see if someone else knows the title of it. Sorry if a thread like this has been made. I got the idea from a thread made in the fashion section. Well, I'll go first.
The book is about a guy who can hear the voice of god or something like that. (Sorry if I'm off, I'm trying my best to recall the events in the book.) Somehow I think god tells him to go talk/help this one girl who works as a prostitute of some sort. He pays money to talk to her and she finds him weird cause of that, but later starts enjoying their conversation. I don't remember what happens next but I guess they decided to be together but I think she runs off cause she doesn't think she's good enough and ends up meeting this guy who raped her in the past when she was a little girl. She finds out he has another little girl in his home and runs away with the little girl. She reunites with the guy and I remember she feels like the guy is her god cause he saved her. This makes god angry though. o_o; Sorry if it's confusing, but I can't remember all of the details.
Full Version: What Book Is This? Official Thread
This is actually a really great thread! I don't think I've seen any thread like this before.
About the book you're looking for however sorry I can't help you.
It sounds interesting though. How long ago did you read it?
I actually have been thinking about a book I have read earlier this year but I had checked it out of the library and I haven't had time to go to the library to see if they still had the book so I can't remember the title! >_< Anyway, the story is told through one of four sisters. I think it's four....maybe it's five?? I can't remember exactly how many sisters there were, either four or five. I want to say four but for some reason I think I'm wrong. ANYWAY, the sister narrating the story has a pet frog who can understand him but no one else can hear him. Ever since the sisters were little girls they had discovered this portal to a fantasy world where creatures of the fantasy world would come together to dance and celebrate. The sisters all agreed to always check up on each other and never eat or drink anything in the fantasy world because they don't want to be stuck there for the rest of their lives. As the story progresses the oldest sister falls in love with a vampire who is involved with a bad clan of vampires. The sister narrating the story has to fight off this guy who wants the girls' father's property and he has feelings for the narrartor but she hates him so she spends a lot of the story arguing with him.
I can go on further if needed but I think that's enough unless someone wants me to ellaborate some more. If anyone can help find the tale I would really appreciate it. Oh yeah I think it's supposed to be based in Transylvania...I want to say late 19th century? I think somewhere around that time. And I'm pretty sure it's teen fiction.

I can't help either of you (sorry!) but I have a book I don't remember as well!
It was a paperback book about a boy who meets this girl. In his town there is this tree in this abandoned warehouse or something and the girl eats a fruit from this tree and a couple of days later he finds her in her room and she's in a cocoon! She's turning into a butterfly and after a while she comes out of it and she has wings. she quickly picks up flying and making a seat out of an old swing she carries the boy around so he can see how great it is. But then they somehow find out that some parents have taken their children in cocoons to the old warehouse and they want to burn the tree or something cause they think it's bad. And then it turns out that the parents had eaten the fruit when they were young too but they lost their wings after a while. But I think the boy and his father (the main instigator against the tree) have a moment and they made up, whatever. But the tree gets burned down by mistake anyways. And the boy is sad he wasn't able to be a butterfly
Then their is an epilogue where the boy opens the backpack he had with him the day the girl ate the fruit and inside he finds the seed from that fruit the girl ate that day.
Yeah, weird.

can i mention a movie? i remember watching a preview for a movie & thinking it was interesting but i totally forgot about it until now.
i'm assuming it didn't make it big because i asked quite a lot of people for it but nobody recognized the movie. (or i'm just bad at explaining).
it's about a wife grieving over her husbands recent death. then a little boy shows up & tells the wife that he's the husband!
she doesn't believe him at first, but i'm assuming the boy tells the wife stories only they would know & she starts believing in him.

I'm glad that at least I can identify this book. It's "Wild wood dancing" by Juliet Marillier; I read it a year ago. The book had quite an impression on me. It created a classical, tranquil feeling, yet eerie and dark at some parts. Overall, I enjoyed it pretty much

.OMG OMG OMG THANK YOU!!!!! I really liked the book too. It was very well written and it had a good balance of fantasy with realism and the tale isn't too complex. Not too serious but not too kiddie. I really enjoyed but I just couldn't figure out the title! Thanks so much again

ahhh thank you so much! i'm going to go add that onto my netflix list right now. lol!
I like the idea of this thread. Now I don't have to keep closing all the other "please help me identify this book" threads. So let's just make this the official one. 
From now on, all similar threads will be merged here.

bits of it kind of sound familiar--but that's no help. >< I have this problem sometimes too-not remember ing a title is one of those 'little' things that can make you crazy until you find out what it is--a librarian may be able to help, though.
I have more books I can't remember! I hate hate hate when this happens to me!!!
Okay, one is a story I read in 6th grade and it's still bothering me that I can't remember it.
It's a short sci-fi story.
The story is about some people traveling to a distant place (like a planet or something) in space in a giant space shuttle thing. The ship is run by the people on it. There are two shifts on the ship. A night shift and a day shift, so to speak. The night shift and the day shift people never interact because they are pretty much awake during different times of the day. Actually, I think it was against ship rules to talk to each other. The night shift and the day shift people share the same rooms because when the night shift person was working, the day shift person was sleeping and vice versa, but there was never any trace that the other person used the same room because the ship's cleaning system made sure of it. Anyways, the story was about a guy that becomes interested in the person who used the room when he was sleeping. I think he somehow figures out it's a woman. And they somehow start leaving each other little hints in the room that the ship's cleaning service can't find. One way, I remember was when the woman leaves a note for him in the faucet. She stuck it up the faucet hole and was pushed out when he turned on the sink. And the notes says the name of a book and when he goes look for the book in the ship's library he finds other clues, etc. But they still couldn't meet. In the end, he switches from the night shift to the day shift because one day the ship managers were asking for a volunteer to switch to the day shift because they were short on workers for something and the guy volunteers even if it meant pretty much leaving behind his night shift life behind and never seeing those people again.
It's was kinda eerie but so interesting! I would love to read it again, so if anyone knows the name please tell me!!!
The other story I can't remember I'll post later~~

I read this book in 5th grade but i cant remember the title now 
I dont exactly remember what happened in the book but its about a girl who finds a guy wounded and his name was Raven (i think the girl nicknamed him that because of his hair or his eyes), he had some sort of disability and would go out of control so the girl tried to get rid of him but somehow she ended up taking care of him. Later on they (or maybe it was only one of them) were accused of being witches by the villagers (i think?) and they tried to burn her/him but they somehow got away. Theres like an older violent guy (the girls fiance?) who hated Raven and tried to beat him up or something. I might be waay off but yeah something along the lines of that.
I think the title starts with an 'S' The cover has a painting of a girl holding a candle. The time setting is probably around the 1600s (?)
Sorry my memory is horrible
i couldnt google it
++EDITED
YAY i finally figured out the title of the book! and i was completely off on most parts the boys name was Raver. The title of the book was The Raging Quiet by Sherryl Jordan. I got my answer thanks to yahoo answers. lol

I like this thread! Good idea!
I read this in elementary school. It's about twins. Like whenever a couple has twins, one of the twins will be kept and the other twin gets taken away to a different place where they live in a society with rejected twins. That's all I can remember. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

The title... shoot, it says something about a planet, world, earth or something between those lines. Oh and the biggest part is that stephanie meyer commented on it, and it's on the cover. GAHH! i know its no big help but please help me???

ARRGH I know this book, I just don't know the title! The one where she hides under the bed and eats book ink, right?! I want to find it too, now D:

Yeah! That's the one! Man! It's really bothering me too~~
Well, if you ever find out the title please tell me! I'll post it here too if I find it.
At least now I know I'm not crazy and just dreamed up that story line.

There's a book I read in elementary school (so it's a picture book) and I don't remember much of it except that it had gorgeous drawings and was about a princess who for some reason had hair that grew uncontrollably. It was so bad once that it filled an entire room. I think she had a curse or something but I'm not sure.

I've read tons of fairy tales, and once read a book called Melisande --could that be it? Not only did her hair grow, but she did too. (it started out as a 'wish')

There was this book i read in seventh grade...umm...it was kinda eerie let's see
There's this boy who lives in this huge old mansion with his dad, but his dad is off to find a new wife because his mom died in an accident. During the accicent, the mom had a 50/50 chance of living but dies instead. Then he touches something (not sure cuz i forgot) and he's transfered to this other world where he meets himself except the fact that he's a girl and that his mom is still alive. There was this one part where they talk about children seeing and hearing ghosts...and then they both (the boy and girl) gets stuck in one of the other worlds end whenever they touch each other they get burned or something like that...
I don't really remember but it talks a great deal about 50/50 chances. Like the boy having a 50/50 chance of being a girl or the mom having a 50/50 chance of living...yeah...
Please help me find out what book this is because i really want to read it again...i think it's the first book of a series...The cover has a lot of blue and some white if that helps.

Okay, so it was a romance novel.
What I remember was that this woman was told in her job that she had to take care of this house the place she worked at was going to fix up soon or something.
So she goes to stay at the house. A man arrives that night and he thinks he's a worker or something so she doesn't treat him very nice and even complains about the house and then she later realizes the man is the owner of the house. He was there because he was getting away from work and he didn't tell anyone he was going to that house
So then they were always fighting. But they started liking each other. Until they had a big fight and she leaves the house in a middle of a storm and her car breaks down. And she's freaking out because not even her cell phone is working. When all of a sudden the man comes help her in the rain and she feels like awkward because he's being nice to her even though they fought and I think they even sleep together that night.
She eventually leaves and goes home. And she feels weird at home, like it never happened but she can't forget about him. But then he goes to her house to see her and they confess that they really like each other.
Or something like this.
Anyone have any idea what book it was?

Sorry can't help you.....
but after reading the excerpt you wrote made me also want to know the title of the book
so i can buy it.....lol
^
lol~
It's killing me not knowing the title! I'm almost thinking I dreamed it~ but I remember I got it randomly by browsing in my public library's online catalog, but the catalog is HUGE so I can't find it again...
I wish they would keep a record of what you've checked out even after you return it... :/
Anyways, if I ever find out I will tell you...

I can't help either of you (sorry!) but I have a book I don't remember as well!
It was a paperback book about a boy who meets this girl. In his town there is this tree in this abandoned warehouse or something and the girl eats a fruit from this tree and a couple of days later he finds her in her room and she's in a cocoon! She's turning into a butterfly and after a while she comes out of it and she has wings. she quickly picks up flying and making a seat out of an old swing she carries the boy around so he can see how great it is. But then they somehow find out that some parents have taken their children in cocoons to the old warehouse and they want to burn the tree or something cause they think it's bad. And then it turns out that the parents had eaten the fruit when they were young too but they lost their wings after a while. But I think the boy and his father (the main instigator against the tree) have a moment and they made up, whatever. But the tree gets burned down by mistake anyways. And the boy is sad he wasn't able to be a butterfly
Then their is an epilogue where the boy opens the backpack he had with him the day the girl ate the fruit and inside he finds the seed from that fruit the girl ate that day.
Yeah, weird.
