Any good books?

[x__amour]

I don't know if you girls read a lot but I do, haha.
I don't like watching TV personally.
So, any good books worth reading? I need something
to pass my time. I just re-read the Harry Potter series
for like the 10th time and I don't really feel like reading
the Twilight series. Haha.

I read like everything, i like pregnacy and parenting stuff atm

i love chicken soup for the mother's soul
And i have a hand full of pregnancy books, like what to expect when expecting.

I wanted to buy that today at Wal-Mart but I didn't have enough

Pregnancy or not pregnancy related?

"The Road" is very good, and provoke some serious thinking (not in like a hard way, but it makes you think about things after you read it!). It's definitely a tear jerker though, especially with pregnancy hormones.

"A Separate Peace" is a really endearing book about friendship, though also sad!

"The Portrait of Dorian Grey" is a classic, but still a fairly easy read and definitely good!

"The Outsiders", if you haven't read it, is fabulous..also a tear jerker.

"The Wrinkle in Time" series is lovely, as is the "Narnia" series.

Ah. I'll think of more! I read a ton.

ETA: Oh! "Hitchhikes Guide to the Galaxy" is..strange, but enjoyable. It's like a totally weird sci-fi. It's before that was a popular genre though so it's different.

"The City of Ember" series is aimed at pre-teens/young teens, but a really well written fantasy! They're light reading.

I only re-read HP for a long time, too. Those are my guilty pleasure. But if you're looking for something lighthearted and hilarious (and pretty raunchy), I suggest:

My Horizontal Life by Chelsea Handler
Are You There, Vodka? It's me, Chelsea by Chelsea Handler
Chelsea, Chelsea Bang, Bang by Chelsea Handler
My Booky Wook by Russell Brand
I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell by Tucker Max

Now, if you're looking for legitimate literature, I definitely agree with A Separate Peace, The Outsiders, and A Wrinkle In Time. Those were all great. I also enjoyed Cafe Europa, Night, The Hobbit, and To Kill a Mockingbird.

Oh "To Kill a Mockingbird" is wonderful too!

 

[x__amour]

"To Kill a Mockingbird" is my favorite classic
And non-related pregnancy books, haha

Depending on what kind of books you like!

Size 12 Is Not Fat by Meg Cabot (it's a series)
Marked by P.C. Cast and Kristen Cast (young adult but a good series)
Guilty Pleasures by Laurell K. Hamilton (it's an adult vampire series and I absolutely LOVE it!)
Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead (another young adult but a good series)
Alices Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carol (extremely strange but still pretty good)
The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold ( AMAZING! And somewhat sad)
Uglies by Scott Westerfeld (Amazing series!)
Hawksong by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes

I love reading lol, so if you need anymore just ask =]

I loveee the harry potter books their my all time fave! Have u tried reading twilight? Cos I thought it wasnt my kinda thing as well but ended up loving them.
Ive been reading books by jodi picoult.. shes a good authour... Um Ive read loads of good 1s lately I will go find their names and authurs when I can summon the energy to get off the sofa hehe xx

 

[x__amour]

Oh no, I have the Twilight series and love it, I just don't want to read it right now. Haha.

 

[MommyGrim]

Guilty Pleasures...(Otherwise know as the Anita Blake series) is similar to Twilight in many ways...I often refer to it as the adult version of Twilight...(even though I think it has a better plot and is written better...that's just my opinion though...) =]

 

[wanaBmummy]

iive got some really good ones but i can't remember the titles and they are all packed cause of moving soon lol so i'm really not much help haha! sorry x

 

[cabaretmum2b]

You should try some Nick Hornby books, he's very good! He wrote "About a Boy" and "High Fidelity", which are really good, and so are "A Long Way Down" and "Juliet, Naked"

 

[bbyno1]

i really like autobiographies by celebs lol i bet no1 agree's haha x

 

[AyaChan]

Agreed! Amazing books! I loved the Vampire Lestat!

 

[vinteenage]

Oh! Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass like someone mentioned are completely worth reading. They're quick reads, but cute, humorous and a little twisted. They're similar to the movies, but there's definitely differences!

 

[x__amour]

Ooh thanks all

 

[JessdueJan]
