After Chloe Brown experiences near death in Get a Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert ($14), she decides to create a bucket list of fun, daring things that will help pull her out of her boring, sheltered life. In exchange for building his art website, she enlists her apartment building's tattooed, motorcycle-riding superintendent, Red Morgan, to help her on her mission.
Why It's Memorable: Somehow, the intimacy in this book manages to be both spicy and adorable at the same time, with Chloe's prickly temperament and Red's accommodating nature. Also, two words: camping sex.
