have you read "the life of pi"? i can't remember who wrote it right now. it's very good. a little weird, but definitely worth a read. | Life of Pi is by Yann Martel who also wrote a book called Self. both really good books. |

| | | A million little pieces by James Frey i suggest all of you read. actually, only read it if you are open minded cuz on the last KR library alot of peope openly slammed the book as being called an autobiography when some elements of it were fictitious. don't get angry at me for recomennding it, it really is a bloody good book. |

| | | 'Love and other impossible pursuits' - Ayelet Waldman
I'm part of a book club and forgot to reject an editors choice on month and thisa is what they sent me. I was too lazy to return it and ended u readign it and very much enjoying it. It's not deep and meaningful as such, but does deal with issues such as being a step parent to a difficult child and a baby dying of cot death. These aren't issues I can relate to at all, but I still really enjoyed it. |

| | | i read it a long time ago, a friend had it and i sat and read it in her room. it was her favourite book (at that time). she wanted me to look at the maths stuff. i couldn't cope with the fact that she died. i am going to try and find it again. i don't know if it is in print. maybe the christian bookshops have it. xox

so recommend me stuff that hasnt been harped on about a million times over.
ie. no bell jar, no palahniuk, no wurtzel.
ive read them all.
no virginia woolf either please, my professor was in love with her. and i think id die if i ever have to read another of her works.
my recommendation for you is: sex, drugs and cocoa puffs by chuck klosterman.
essays on pop culture basically (he writes for spin, im not sure if he still does, i think so)
go. | try to read spanish author Camillo Hose Sela (actually i dont know how to spell it in english but i guess it's alike.) he's sort of hard psycological author,his first great novel was about murderer ..a "good" murderer/it's a bit strange and exciting.
it depends on the mood you hva.e
and not so far i;'v read Never Mind The Bollocks - gret book!!!!it's about women in rock - it's light and interesting.
read some of russians - they are great.or french    | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes |  Linear Mode |
