October 5, 200519 yr The Bachman Books - Steven King when he was pretending to be someone else called Richard Bachman. Not horror fiction, kind of horror but more realistic and believable. Pet Sematary- Steven King. Anything in the Rich Dad Poor Dad series by Robert T Kiyosaki. Harry Potter books rock, and the Discworld novels by Terry Pratchett. Able and Cain, don't know author, very good story. Sexus, Nexus and Plexus, don't know author, filthy books about sex in the '30s. The original Jaws (the movie sucks compared to the book). Otherland by Tad Williams (read part one and tw, can't find third or others in series. Very realistic books about the future of the internet and graphics).
October 5, 200519 yr If you're really into the intelligent stuff, and you wanna expand your knowledge on mathematics, read The Golden Ratio by Mario Livio. A tad boring, though. Very informative, however.
October 5, 200519 yr I enjoyed "The Teaching of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge" (by Carlos Castaneda) a lot. Very good read.
October 5, 200519 yr This Present Darkness - Frank Peretti. Kushiel's Dart - Jacqueline Carey. Pattern Recognition - William Gibson.
October 5, 200519 yr One of my favorite books is Nazi Culture by George L. Mosse. Not trying to be hip and racist, but it was a really cool book. It tells, from recorded accounts, what it was like to live as a Nazi parent, worker, student, Hitler Youth in the era. What the sex practices, morals, and family life were like. It illustrated their attituds twards art, music, drama, science, and religion. Most of that was taken directly from the book, but this book really puts you in the era and mindset of these people and what life was like. Awesome book for history buffs, but nonetheless good for anyone else.
October 5, 200519 yr 50% of the replying people probably never seen a book anyway posting genres ur intrested in might help
October 5, 200519 yr Der treue Partisan no idea if it has ever been translated - if yes...it could be "The faithful Partisan" or "The loyal Partisan"...maybe... ;D Illuminati pwns 2 or as someone said before "Pet Sematary" don't have any others on mind atm :sly:
October 5, 200519 yr Yeah hope on the bandwagon, all teens our age read Dan Brows work cuz we hear it good, and it is, Personally i like 1984 by George Orwell, if u really take in the words, u can c that this author forsaw the US's future allll the way back in the 20's(book was made in the 20's but talk of the future and the big brother theory). Its a great book. Good point 1984 is a must read.
October 5, 200519 yr Fiction Art of War (a narritive of Alexander the Great) Da Vinci Code (Make sure you get the inllustrated version) Memoirs of Geisha Catch-22 (very humorous) Classics I'm a fan of Dicken's work. Great Expectations, David Copperfield and Oliver Twist are fun reads if you haven't read them. Nonfiction The World is Flat (Very insightful book on globalization) Rich Dad Poor Dad (If you want to be rich, this is a good reference)
October 5, 200519 yr If you aren't a big reader and you like books that are easy to read, go with Stephen King, Ray Bradbury, or whatever's on the best sellers list. America hates reading. If you enjoy something a bit deeper, try reading Orwell's books. They really get you to think. If you're able to understand it, some Shakespear can be interesting/funny. Of course, saying that is just tempting posts like "LOL OMFG U REED TAHT SSHIT LMFAO ***", but it's good nonetheless. There are reasons for the longevity of his works. :ghug:
October 5, 200519 yr stupid white men by michael moore plum island by nelson demille dog company six by edwin howard simmons ---- catcher in the rye by j.d salinger life of pi by yann martel
October 5, 200519 yr stupid white men by michael moore plum island by nelson demille dog company six by edwin howard simmons ---- catcher in the rye by j.d salinger life of pi by yann martel LOL @ michael moore Terry pratchet is a good author if you like english humor at all, it's kinda wierd. Also, Solider X, It's a pretty short book about a hitler youth that pretends to be a russian solider so he won't get killed. It's pretty interesting.
October 5, 200519 yr The Turner Diaries - http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1569800863/qid=1128542468/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_10_1/202-5661941-6803853 read it if you can, you can find it on the internet its a really good read if you got time

October 5, 200519 yr "Magician" by Raymond E Fiest is the best fantasy novel I've ever read, literally impossible to put down.
October 5, 200519 yr 1984 (obvious) my current book im reading Rational Mysticism its about drugs, god (real or not?), and such. pretty cool look at how ppl have these amazing spiritual experiences, but they are all different, either from drugs, prayer, meditating, etc raises good questions and interviews interesting people like ppl who invented drugs, medicine men, shit like that go read it
