As a suggestion... you never know what you'll like if you don't try to read it first. not sure what you mean, i never said i didnt like any books, i just said ive only read one, books just arent that appealing to me. I cant sit down and get interested in them (except for the one book) unless im in my personal space (the WC) |

I cant sit down and get interested in them (except for the one book) unless im in my personal space (the WC) I spose what I'm saying is that if you have the time to read one book over and over, perhaps you could try other books. That's all. A good book will have you hooked within the first few pages, so it shouldn't take long to get interested. If you liked that book enough to read it repeatedly, there should be other books out there you will enjoy as well. |

The one I'm currently reading is The Darkness that Comes Before. The first book of The Prince of Nothing series. I am absolutely astounded by this novel, it's mostly character development to introduce the series but the absolute realism of the characters and their progress is amazing.
I'm glad I picked up this book.

I have just recently read "Angels & Demons" by Dan Brown, and that was one of the best books i have ever read. I am now reading Brown's other "Robert Langdon" book, "the Da Vinci Code". This book is very well written, but i would say angels and demons is better even though it has not sold as many copies.

My favourite book is Uncle Tom's Cabin- I definetly recommend it, but make sure you have a kleenex box beside you.
I also love Animal Farm by George Orwell (MCM take note)
