Well now that we are on christmas break and I haven't read a book for fun in like, forever, I wanted to go to the store today and pick out a book to read. I just don't know which one. I haven't read very many, so just point some out :) thanks.

So, what are you book recommendations?

Hmmm, well I haven't read that many books but I'm about half-way thru "Go Ask Alice" It's a really good book. But I guess it depends on what kind of books you're into. Also, The Series Of Unfortunate Events books are good.. I read up to the third one. Hope that helped at all..

A Wrinkle in Time

da vinci code by dan brown
angels and demons by dan brown.

the lord of the rings trilogy- if your really that patient. its one my favorite books tho!

speak by laurie halse andresen.

seven waters trilogy- good series!! read!!

Anything by David Sedaris.

Grand Avenue by Joy Fielding

All of Chuck Palahniuk's books are awesome:

- Fight Club
- Choke
- Lullaby (highly recommended)
- Invisible Monsters
- Survivor
- Diary

Mitch Albom is another of my favorite authors:

- Tuesdays With Morrie (best book he wrote)
- Five People you Meet In Heaven

Depends on what kind you like. ^^ The Lovely Bones by... gah... I forgot. >_< It was a good book though.

you dont really have to ask. if you go to like a barnes and noble place and theres like a section of novels. theres so many to choose from. i always have a hard time. but i recommend "DEATH BE NOT PROUD" a non fiction. its not new but everyone is reading it now for some reason. i'm also reading it and its pretty good so far.

my sister says it all....listen to my sister, jr0h.

You should read all the books bye Ameila At-water Rhodes.. her best book that i thought was Shattered mirror... and read The Blooding by Patricia Windsor.. it is REALLY good this book is okay Look For Me By Moonlight is ok but you mite think it's better it's by Mary Downing Hahn

Ahh, I hardly EVER read, except for the occasional Harry Potter. (: But there are these romantic-comedy books by Meg Cabot (who also wrote Princess Diaries) that are uber cute. They're both similar, cause they're entirely written in e-mail form, along with notices and other forms of print, if that made sense. The two that I know of are 'The Boy Next Door' and 'Boy Meets Girl'. I like 'Boy Next Door' better than 'Boy Meets Girl', because it has a deeper plot, I suppose? But yeah, they're both nice if you want a quick read.

Or you could go with Harry Potter<3.

All Quiet on the Western Front
Lord of the Flies
Complete History of Jack the Ripper <- Quite informative
And yeah, those are just a couple to add to the list above - they're good as well. I didn't feel like repeating myself or posting a pointless post.

The whole Cirque Du Freak series by Darren Shan.
Ah, I love them.. just can't get enough of them. :D

alice sebold!

i read another book about her, i forget what it's called but it was her own experience being raped.. LUCKY there we go

i just finished 'diary' yesterday.. that was great.

if you don't like fiction, try dave barry books. it'll make you lol seriously.

jane eeyre, and then there were none by agatha christie, mitch albom's the five ppl you meet in heaven, jeffrey eugenides - middlesex.

lol im obsessed with the series of unfortunate events -_- i just read half of the grim grottoand it's really really interesting! haha it's the best book of all 11 so far i totally recomend that one

The Outsiders and Hatchet

Read Harry Potter books.. (So then this summer, you'll be up to date and you can buy Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince!)

Children of the lamp: the akhenaten adventure. by: PB Kerr
This is about some adventure to kill some pharoah. it's really cool... you should read it.

im reading street lawyer by john grisham

the house of the spirits by isabel allende..

i had to read it for eng and it was really good..

Wow. You guys are sisters. Haha.


Uhhh
if you're into weird books, then read books by V.C. Andrews, haha.
& if you're into books about drugs then.. Crank & Go Ask Alice.

V.C. Andrews is the coolest author.

u should read Memoirs of A Geisha by Arthur Golden (i think thats what his name is) its a really good book

five ppl you meet in heaven and tuesday with morrie !!
same authors yes

the gossip girl series by cecily von ziegesar, .. its 5 books. my faves are #1 and #5... but i guess u should read them in order.

some other ones i like are the da vinci code by dan brown and on the road by jack kerouac. oooh cats cradle by kurt vonnegut is also good.

Stargirl - Jerry Spinnelli
Any book by Jacqueline Wilson
Mates and Dates series (5 or 6 books out, I think) - Cathy Hopkins
1- Harry Potter, 2- A Series of Unfortunate Events, 3- Fear Street series' (by 1- J.K. Rowling, 2- Lemony Snicket, and 3- R.L. Stine)

+. any of the harry potter books
+. A Cry In the Night by Mary Higgins Clark
+. Where the Red Fern Grows

The Los Angeles Diaries by James Brown .... A GREAT GREAT BOOK i just started reading it ..and its great .

House of the Scorpien
Kissing Kate

Yeah, I'm a nerd. But a cool nerd

Hey, that PB Kerr guy came to our school! His British accent is so cool!

Back to the topic, the Harry Potter books are good. In the 5th book though, Harry Potter is so angry! It's annoying. Plus in the 6th book, all the romance is bunched up in there instead of being spread out into the other books.

Uncle John's Bathroom Reader for Kids Only is a really interesting book about your body, ghosts and stuff like that.

And I love anything by Kate DiCamillo (Despereaux, Because of Winn-Dixie)

im reading classic books and i like the three musketeers if u didnt read it.. its kinda long

-Lord Of The Flies
-Books from John Grisham. His stories are a little slow but an interesting read.

And I highly recomment The Rule Of Four. If you enjoyed The Da Vinci Code, you'll enjoy this one. And if you haven't read the The DA Vnci code yet go read it.

here's a few good ones

The Giver-short, sweet, and one of the best books you'll ever read

Of Mice and Men-One of the ONLY books that I was forced to read for English in high school that I actually enjoyed reading

Dean Koontz novels, any book by Dean Koontz is magnificent, well crafted, his characters are rounded, funny, sarcastic, and his plots and suspense just keep me begging for more. Only thing is most of them are long, so as long as you don't mind spending a little time to read one, definitely check him out. If you want to know more, I can list some of my favorites that he's written to get ya started.

-Gossip Girl
-Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
-Five People You Meet in Heaven
-The Client

Night Whispers by Judith McNaught


Awesome storyline. Gives you the chills.

The Alienist by Caleb Carr... awesome book... couldn't put it down. Also, the Harry Potter series is good, I started it sometime in August and I'm up to halfway of the 5th book.

Read CHUCK PALAHNIUK.

Fight Club
Choke
Lullaby
Diary

Wow, I just read The Time Travelers Wife.

It was amazing! I cried and laughed...oh and read it in a day.

Go READ! I will edit with the authors name later.

i like john grisham books and memior of a geisha

you'll like memiors of a geisha no matter what =]
