What books have you read lately?

« on: January 05, 2009, 04:35:25 PM »

i'm quite bored the past few days and so i thought of asking you guys what books you have read so far... you might want to share them here in this thread (especially if it's a good read) and we can read them too...

thanks!

Yey!!! I'm a bookworm!!! ^_^

I've read all Paolo Coelho books, but I only like him for his philosophical views regarding love, life and spirituality. Personally, I find the storyline of his novels way too 'ordinary'. Eleven Mins & The Zahir are okay.

I have the Twilight Saga (book one to four, paperback) still waiting for the others to come out...it's a good teen lit. I also bought an ebook. Let me know if you'd like to get a copy.

Maybe you'd like to get your hand on some classics? Try American Psycho, Catcher in the Rye, Great Gatsby, Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights or The Thousand and One Nights.

Another great coming-of-age story would be The Perks of Being a Wallflower.

I have always loved books by Anne Rice, James Patterson, Sidney Sheldon, Tom Clancy, Michael Crichton and John Grisham (courtroom suspense/drama is always a good read.)

If you're into chick lits you might wanna try authors Sophie Kinsella or Lauren Weisberger or Candace Bushnell.

My current bedside read is Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia-Marquez, oh and I'm also obsessed with Chuck Palahniuk.

blah blah blah...you know, i can go on and on talking about books here. ^_^

Sige Rizza PM mo sken email mo so I can forward the ebooks. Hanggang apat na yon - twilight, breaking dawn, eclipse ska new moon. Madami pa kong ebooks dito sabihin mo lang pra ma forward ko syo. Kung mahilig ka sa mga novels ni Danielle Steel you might wanna try books by Judith McNaught, Jude Deveraux, Nora Roberts, Katherine Stone or Nicholas Sparks. Pang iyakan blues tlga sila. ^_^

Kung mahilig ka din sa mga psych or self-help try mo yung Blink. pag nag EB minsan at nakasama ko lend ko syo. it's all about trusting your instinct. okay din siya.
