I've never even heard of it. What is it about?

The last thing I read was Graham Greene's "Gun for Sale". It isn't my usual type of book, but I wanted to read some Graham Greene because I've heard brilliant things about him.

I love the Harry Potter series, the Lord of The Rings series, and Stephen Kings books. Another favorite is To Kill A Mockingbird.

can't EVER go wrong with Tolkien, says I...

Love the Artemis Fowl books - like Potter, but with a sharper edge - more for adults, if you can believe that!

Well TBOCC was about a boy that went missing and he left a note saying he disapeared becasue no one liked them and it turns a town upside down becasue everyone is thinking of murder and a boy namded Tory tried to find him. That is all I will say.

Interesting.
I love "Stranger Things Happen" by Kelly Link, which is modernized spooky fairytales. Incredible. And "Fortress of Solitude" by Jonathan Lethem is amazing - has anyone read Jonathan Lethem?

I can't believe I forgot the Artemis Fowl trilogy. I enjoyed the series very much.

if you like nonfiction, go check out Peter Newman's history of Canada - Company of Adventurers and all that - all about the Hudson's Bay Company - excellent read!

Does anyone here read Richard Brautigan? I just discovered him recently and he is fanastic. His poems, his short stories are so short and tightly-woven and brilliant. I went through his complete short stories in a few hours because I was addicted. I couldn't put it down until I got through.

I can't remember the last book I read as I constantly reading children story books to my daughters.

I like John Grisham work and Danielle Steel. Bought lots of their novel while staying in the UK.

I am going to read "Writing for Quick Cash" and "How to Write Children Story Book" in a few days to come. Waiting for them to arrive.
