Recommended Books & Book Discussion

Considering Nick and I are talking about it non-stop, I have to recommend 1984, by George Orwell. And while you're at it, read Animal Farm, too.

 

[Lexi Rodriguez]

The only book i have left is the set of harry potter books, so i must recommend it.

 

[Estrella Drage]

"glamorama" by bret easton ellis.
starts off rocky and semi-boring but by the end you will feel like you've been punched in the face.
or you'll curse my name.

I'll keep that in mind. I get to curse your name if I don't feel as if I have been socked in the face.

I'm currently reading the sixth Artemis Fowl book.. gotta love em... I haven't gotten to reading any recommended books, I am way too busy.

 

[Aiden Mauven]

Eeep Artemis Fowl..I couldn't read it at all...So dull!!! No offence or anything

A great book is Rohinton Mistry's: A Fine Balance! It changed my life!!!!! [For the better ] I know what a lot of you are going to think, it is a bunch of mumbo jumbo but he is an amazing writer and the setting, plot and characters are amazing.

 

[Lexi Rodriguez]

Maybe Madison finn.....that's all

 

[Nina Patrokov]

Has anyone read the Twilight Saga? Its not a very good series but I love it...*lowers head in shame*

 

[Katerina Ivanova]

HEATHEN! HEATHEN!

...I despise Twilight.

I Capture The Castle, by Dodie Smith, is a pretty good book.

 

[Nina Patrokov]

I know im a little embarrased to admit that but, im addicted

 

[Cecily Rambolt]

Aw Nina don't be ashamed! Hold your head up proudly. I do! There're so many fans of that series it's crazy! Even grandmas read it.

I just finished the whole series and am very happy with it! I can't wait to re-read the whole series again. I read Midnight Sun (Edwards POV of Twilight) on Stephenie Meyers website. Sadly her manuscript was leaked and she posted it on her website after that. Just read New Moon too.

I highly recommend the Twilight series also.

 

[Aiden Mauven]

I know its so sad ...Have you read the last one..name escapes me..I was a little disapointed with Renesme

 

[Rhyspa Marinescu]

I was very disappointed with the last one actually. I love the series none the less.

 

[Aiden Mauven]

I know...It was saddening how she tried to rush everything in! Just as J.k. had done why do all the fiction writers have to do that... (

 

[Katerina Ivanova]

Things The Grandchildren Should Know.

I was re-reading it yesterday, and it is one of the best autobiographies I have ever read. Okay, you might need to be a fan of Eels to like it, but still. It's just...awesome.

 

[Aurora Hades]

hiya guy! I just finished twilight and i must say it was worthy of being in this list

 

[Alyssa Chevalier]

Has anyone else heard of a book called

Life As We Knew It?

I forget the write is. I'll edit the post when I find out.

I don't know Aiden...I just don't know...

I don't know Aiden...I just don't know...

I think after writing the same topic for lonf just gets boring to them....at leats...thats why I'd do it.

 

[Violet Bellamy]

Well, apparently Midnight Sun was shelved. *happy dance*

I'm reading the biography of The Cure, 'Never Enough'. I think I'm a little on the obsessive side.

 

[Aiden Mauven]

I love The Cure so don't worry Violet

 

[Athene Perthro]

Shelved?

I just started a book called a Few Demons More. It's not great, but not terrible either. It's about a modern fantasy about a witch dating a vampire, but in love with another. Lots of pixies and elves and werewolves. And demons - which she keeps accidentally summoning.

Great concept, but not particularly well written.

 

[Violet Bellamy]

Sounds pretty interesting. Odd, but interesting.

Hmm, looking at my bookshelf. I should've finished reading Villette, by Charlotte Bronte. But it's quite a boring book, to be honest. If you read it after Jane Eyre, and expect it to be like Jane Eyre, you will be bitterly disappointed.

 

[Nicolas King]

I guess I should recommend Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell after alluding to it so often.

[Violet Bellamy]

Ignorance is strength, Nick. Do you really want the proles to understand the extremely bizarre allusions that you and I both find ourselves throwing in to spam every...day?

On that note, Animal Farm is also brilliant.

Also, may I recommend the short stories of Roald Dahl? They are so bizarre, and yet brilliant. His two-part autobiography - Boy and Going Solo - are also two great books.

 

[Nicolas King]

Roald Dahl very likely shaped me into who I am today... :">
Anyhow, if there is hope, it is in the proles.

 

[Aiden Mauven]

I love Roald Dhal but I hate hate hate hate George Orwell...mainly Animal Farm!!
