I recommend reading any book on your (or any other) high school's summer
reading list. Teachers generally know good books, and with the exception of
Moby Dick, they are all great reads. Of course, many people love Moby
Dick--I'm just not one of them. In addition, I'd recommend The Shining, or,
Firestarter by Stephen King. The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien. To Kill
a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. The Curious Incident of the Dog in the
Nighttime by MarkHaddon. Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card. City of Bones by
Michael Connelly.
You need to try a variety of authors and styles to find what you like, and
this is a good mix.
Gerardo--Sorry, but I don't know how blind people in other countries obtain
books. Here in the US, we get them from several resources, most popular
being on tape or digital download from the National Library Services of the
Library of Congress. Bookshare, which Vejas seems to use extensively, is a
good resource, although I don't know if it is for US citizens only. You
might investigate there.
