There is one really awesome book called "Forever" by Pete Hamill!. It basically follows a single character through the entire history of New York!. If you like history or you love New York it is a really amazing book! Some of my other personal favorites are Wicked (The Wizard of Oz from the point of view of The Wicked Witch of the West) or Peace Kills by P!.J!. O'Rourke, which is a very tongue in cheek collection of a journalists stories and experiences throughout different wars!. Amazingly satirical!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

these aren't love stories, but they're some of my favourite books and don't take too long to read:

Cry of the Cat by Emily Rodda (crime mystery)

Watchers I!.D By Peter Lerangis (Blurb on the back of the book: Nobody knows who the watchers are!. But they are around us!. They observe us!. They see the things we can't see!.!.!.

Who is Eve Hardy!? Is she the only child of a normal pair of parents!? Or is she the offspring of a bizarre experiment that has gone horrible wrong!? Eve doesn't know!. But if she doesn't find out the truth, it will destroy her!. Time is running out!.!.!.)

Chasing Vermeer by Blue Balliett (blurb on the back of the book: On a warm October night in Chicago, three deliveries were made in the same neighbourhood!. A plump tangereen moon had just risen over Lake Michigan!. The doorbell had been rung at each place, and an envelope propped outside!.!.!.The same letter went out to all three:

Dear Friend,
I would like your help in identifying a crime that is now centuries old!. This crime has wronged one of the world's greatest painters!. As those in positions of authority are not brave enough to correct this error, I have taken it upon myself to reveal the truth!. I have chosen you because of your discriminating eye, your intelligence, and your ability to think outside of convention!.!.!.Although you may never meet, the three of you will work together in ways none of us can predict!. If you show this to the authorities, you will most certainly be placing your life in danger!.!.!.

The letter was not signed, and it had no return address)!.

Anyway, those are some of my favourite books!. I hope I helped!
