What are some of your favorite books, or suggestions for good books to read?

This'll get yer juices flowin' Anythin by Phillip Pullman(particularly the 'his dark materials' trilogy) 'A Coven Of Vampires'-Brian Lumley The Narnia Series 'Endless Nights'- Neil Gaiman ...May come back later with more...

"Ishmael" or "Sidhartha" they both are good "make you think" books.

You sound young and teenish- maybe you'll like my personal favorite "This Side of Paradise" by F. Scott Fitzgerald. About a shallow, confused, arrogant, yet brilliant guy growing up.

I love books by Jodi Picoult. She is a phenomenal author and I would reccomend anything she wrote. Some of her books include: Mercy, Perfect Match, My Sister's Keeper, The Pact, Keeping Faith, Plain Truth, Nineteen Minutes, Songs of the Humpback Whale, The Tenth Circle... etc etc... She writes w/ a diversity of topics, and has a very fascinating writing style.

what genre? what age level? for a guy or girl? fantasy-read tolkien, tamora pierce, lloyd alexander werewolves/vamps- read blood and chocolate, silver kiss by annette klause, anything by amelia atwater rhodes companions of hte nbight by vivian vande velde funny/classic- catch 22, a conneticut yankee in king arthurs court heartbreaking-the once and future king funny- how i paid for college by mark acito self-discovery(but good)- born confused-about a india girl,the alchemist paulo cohelio, the kite runner-even once you read the worst part don't put the book down it is worth it to keep reading, the sequel a thouseand splendid suns need more???

I've been reading autobiographies lately and loved Dream Brother, the Lives & Music of Tim & Jeff Buckley by David Browne. Also Zappa, a Biography by Barry Miles of Frank Zappa. Very interesting stuff.

I love Jane Austen. I've read and reread her books. They're definitely worthwhile. I'm reading a Charlotte Bronte right now. I just finished Kitchen God's Wife by Amy Tan. I'm in a female writer streak right now. Before then I was reading a lot on middle-eastern culture. The Kite Runner is really good. Three Cups of Tea is excellent. Watership Down is one of my favorites, as is Little Women. I'll read pretty much anything, but I hope this helps.

I like the Sir John Fielding Mysteries by Bruce Alexander. The first one is Blind Justice. It is historical fiction, and the characters are great! The same goes with the Aubrey-Maturin series by Patrick O'Brian. The first book is Master and Commander. Frankenstein by Mary Shelley is also amazing. Enjoy and happy reading!
