omg I totally forgot Anne Rice...I'm infatuated with Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles, although I'm not too fond of her recent stuff. I think Anne Rice should take a rest, clearly her husband's death hit her hard.

I always thought that the harry potter books were good...

sibyllene, you mentioned quite a few books I love.

has anyone read the book called 'a child named it' it's the first part of a biography. I think it's by a man named Dave Pelzer and it's sooo sad.

Impulse is a really good book, as well, as crank and burned.

"^I'm shocked not to see aesop's fables......Lmao"

haha... it's actually on my bookshelf in my closet at home....

no, i'm serious.

: )

And to those others who've shared some of my faves... rock on! Reading is the shiz. What others do you like?

oh my god, Ella Enchanted. Old book I read when I was really young, but absolutely beautiful. The movie slaughtered the storyline though :(

"oh my god, Ella Enchanted. Old book I read when I was really young, but absolutely beautiful. The movie slaughtered the storyline though :( "

^so sad and true. I basically just pretend that the movie doesn't exist.

I first read ella enchanted in 5th grade... and I've probably read it dozens and dozens of times since then. I still read it almost 10 years later. when I get too tired of reading "grown-up" books... I take it off the shelf and give it a whirl. Probably have the thing memorized by now...

Wow! There are way to many to name! Fruits Basket, Tsubasa, XXXHolic, Good luck, Diabolo, The world exists for me, Harry Potter, Hana-Kimi... I could go on for ages!!! Haha, I think I said that already in another post. Well, to bad, I'm writing it again.

Some mentioned it;

A Child Called [or Named] It. -- Dave Pelzer.

That book brought me to tears. Mainly because.. I know that in a really huge way, it's true for many people. Child abuse is huge these days, it's so awful. This book just really got to me. Had me bawling like a baby. ;[

more of books I love!

"Code of Love"

"Angels and Demons" - Dan Brown

Fight Club - Chuck Palahnuick (a must read in my opinion)

Catch-22 Joseph Heller (a little harder to follow)

ALL JENNY CRUSIE BOOKS, Out of the dust- Karen Hesse lol uhh Tithe, and Valiant by Holly black, but tithe is better, (modern faery book), harry potter books! lol they are awesome! I am friends with an author known as Sarah Reinke, and she has a new book coming out in July- it is a vampire romance! It looks really good. Oh and She wrote an awesome book called unexpected engagment. And MY ALLTIME FAVORITE BOOK: Candy - by Kevin Brooks. All must reads, and and one more I will suggest, it is called a certain slant of light. Well known, lol but I forgot the name of the author.

I read entirely too much because I am homeschooled lmao
But those are all ym must reads. If you like comics I reccomend Calvin and Hobbes.

God Bless

TTYL, TTFN, and L8r G8or are a series and its all in instant messages for people who are into that

also What My Mother Doesn't Know is in poetry forms it's also great

and Dovery Coe is a great book

sorry i don't know any authors at the moment

I havent read a child called it but all my friends have so they filled me in. I wasnt exactly in the mood to cry so figured enough attention had been brought to it without mine.

Angels n Demons, Da vinci code, Digital fortress and Inspector calls

Lord Of The Rings - JR Tolkin
Noughts and Crosses - Malorie Blackman
