"Hunger" by Knut Hamsun is a great, easy-to-read novel!. Do you like nonfiction!? "Ibn al-Haytham: First Scientist" tells the fascinating, true story of a medieval Muslim scholar who overcame bouts of mental illness to develop the scientific method two hundred years before the Europeans learned of it—by reading his books!. It was just chosen by California Readers to be part of the 2008 California Collection!. You can find reviews of the book and a sample chapter at http://www!.ibnalhaytham!.netWww@QuestionHome@Com

hmm, a great book if you are into fantasy/ sci-fi is The Legacy of the Drow by R!.A!. Salvatore; Salvatore is an awesome novel writer very descriptive and leaves you hanging on to every word!.

The Lottery Rose(forgot author); The Illiad and The Oddessey by Homer; The Grapes of Wrath & Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck; To Kill a Mockingbird; And many others!.!.!.
