Book suggestions....

[EmmitBrown]

I thought i'd make a thread about very good books.....so if you have anything that you've read (in your youth, recently, in the womb, whatever) and you think others here would enjoy the heads up on it...let us know in here.

I'll start with three books i couldn't put down and think most of you would enjoy. If possible, try to post the cover and a review (if you can't find either, no biggie)

footnote: everything by wodehouse is exceptional and the humor is some of the finest you'll ever encounter.

I don't read very often, but i did quite like the Eragon/Eldest series, although it is fantasy. Only about 500 pages each, but it is a very quick read that will keep you entertained.

Also, the third in the series is coming out soon i believe

i didnt really like eragon much...
i dont read a lot either besides summer readin and thats pretty much it...
theres some alright summer books ive read before though

the 5 people you meet in heaven
Grendel (was interesting)
a clockwork orange (hard to understand at first but its not bad)

^ all of which are like less than 200 pages

in honor of David Foster Wallace's suicide a few days ago, I highly recommend Infinite Jest.

As for other books I highly recommend, to name just a tiny few:

I think I'll dig up Snow Blind for starters.

Dont care if its a movie the book came out first. The GOdfather by Mario Puzo a definite classic

[Corrine]

Nice topic.

I don't read much fiction bar Tolkien and Raymond E Feist who fufill all my fiction requiements, be they fantasy or otherwise. Other than that I like auto biographies and factual stuff.
