Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The kite runner xxWww@QuestionHome@Com Have you read Wuthering Heights!? That was a great book! You could also try A Handmaid's Tale- It's basically about this Utopia where not all women can have children, it has it's moments where it gets 'awkward' but only for 1 or 2 chapters!. It's a great book, very moving!. The Twilight Saga is addictive too! Even though it's aimed at young adults, it attracts all ages!. If you don't know already, it's about a vampire/human romance and it gets very addictive!. Anyway, enjoy your city break, and I hope I helped! =)Www@QuestionHome@Com Which city!? I like to read something set where I am going!. Failing that, you should check out "Of Mice and Men" by John Steinbeck, "The Red Badge of Courage" by Stephen Crane and "Heart of Darkness" by Joseph Conrad!. As a wild card read "Three men in a Boat" by Jerome K Jerome, great book with more humour about it!. Enjoy, Steve!.Www@QuestionHome@Com In looking at the types of books you like, I would recommend to you: The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Neffinegger The Alchemist by Paul Cohelo Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert Remembering Blue by Barbara Kingsolver All of the above are simply sublime! Happy reading!.Www@QuestionHome@Com A few classics that don't take too long to read: 1984 - Orwell Animal Farm - Orwell Clockwork Orange - Burgess And if you want something a bit different, try a Paul Auster book!. The New York Trilogy might be a good place to start!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Just finished an amazing book "The Book Thief" by Markus Zusak!. It is fantastic!. Definitely worth a read!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Along the lines of 1984: Fahrenheit 451!. Loved it much more than 1984, though both are very good! I'll also have to recommend Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, as well as all of her other novels!. Good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com "Pop goes the weasel" by James Patterson!. My sister read alot of his books so through my GCSE's I began to read them and they're good books!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Lolita - Vladimir NabokovWww@QuestionHome@Com double cross by chuck giancanaWww@QuestionHome@Com 'The Sea' John Banville!. xWww@QuestionHome@Com |
