the ugly american, i can't remember the author but with a title like
that it should not be hard to find. it's kinda like a crime novel about embezzlement but i thought it was good, the broker by john grisham, the testament by koontz and no fear also by koontz, the talisman and black house both of them are a combined effort by steven king and peter straub. both of the last two are very weird(don't read them while you are under the influence of drugs ) lol it's kinda like looking into the mind of a schizophrenic if you see it the right way |

The Yearling by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, can't beat it. Neither can you
beat "To Kill A Mockingbird." |
|
|

well, I hate to sound like I follow a fad but The Lord of the Rings
trilogy is my favourite,has been since I was a little kid, and lionsbrew? if you like peirs anthony check out the "Incarnations of Immortality" series if you already haven't. The 1st in the series is called, "On a Pale Horse" The serious is based on the premise that Death, War, Time, Mother Nature and a few others are merely offices that are held by regular people that got the job through bizarre or extenuating circumstances. The other series I think is just great is Douglas' Adams, "Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy" |

to kill a mocking bird is a very good book so is where the red fern
grows and a time to kill |
|
|

hitchhikers guide you should check out dirk gentleys detective agency and the long dark teatime of the soul |

i don't really have a favorite book, i read what catches my eye. Plan on
writting one though or at least try. lol but, if you like fantasy... earagon and eldest was really good, i'm waiting for the third of the trilogy(inheiratance?) to come out, all written by chistopher paoloni(?) and by the way if ever u find a book called Phor Cunieres/the guardians tale by N.V.LONG that's mine! but, it'll be a while i'm still in the process of writting it.lol |

christopher paoloni is a very young author isn't he? if he is the guy
that i am thinking about he had his first book published when he was 17 or 18. |

Dune series is by far my favorite. Where the Red Fern Grows is a sad book. Being a southern coon hunting lad who owned a pair of red bone coon hounds it really hit home. About a week before reading the book I had to shoot one of my dogs to put her out of her misery as she got hit by a car on the trail of a coon which her brother finished tracking and treed. The idiot that told me I would like the book over heard me talking about putting her down. He thought it was funny as hell when I confronted him on his sick humor. |

for all the ladies out there that wants to figure out how a relationship
can be better...if your making the same mistakes, I advise you to get this book and really read it IN THE MEANTIME by Iyanla Vanzant LIVING THROUGH THE MEANTIME YESTERDAY I CRIED All of these books are by this lady...very good books!!! |
|
|
|
to:kb, yes paolini is a very young author, and gifted too, he has a way
of making u feel like part of the book. i really liked how he detailed the whirlpool in his second book eldest it had me on edge. said he got alot of the inspiration from the landscape near where he lives for the setting of his novels, supposedly the third one(inheiratance(?)) is suppose to be coming out soon. they all are worth the time to look into them, it was hard for me to put them down. and can't wait til i read the next one so i can find out what happens! |
|
|

"of mice and men" was a really good book too. love, "where the red fern
grows" and the movie too. I like to read comics as well. such as purgatory, lady death, dark child, etc. |
