Hi my friend, i am reccomending you to read A purpose Driven LIfe, it is a very good and you will learn so many things here. A purpose driven life has sold 25 million coppies and it is the best selling hardback book in American History. Rick Warren is the author of the book.

Hi, Thanks for the response. I read this book when I was in college. It's really worth my time. I recommend it to other people too.

I read so many different genres of books. As long as if they sound interesting to me, then I will pick it up. I perfer paperbacks. I use a site called paperbackswap.com that lets me trade all of my books (paperback, hardback, and audio) with other members. Then I can get a book that I want from another member. I am just trading my books. I love it. I just recently read the new steve martin book Born Standing UP. That was a good book, it tells you how he started in stand up. A really good memoir, if you enjoy reading those. :)

i personally love self-help books and if you're a filipino i recommend bob ong for entertainment books.
i prefer paperbacks than e-books because not only do i love reading but also keeping the books as well.

my favorite books are non fiction books that teach you more on a subject...i like to learn or listen to other people's perspectives.
I don't really have any favorite authors who are not young adult writers...i could list tons from that fiction category, but you're probably not into that much! I can't say i am either anymore!
Do you have a public library near you? I LOVE the library...I will just walk down the aisles looking for stuff...our library also lets us request materials from different libraries, so I can look on their site and find just about any book I ever thought about buying or reading.
Second hand thrift shops, flea markets, and yard sales are also great ways to find cheap books - usually you can get several for less than a dollar.
There are also some really neat sites (yeesh, i feel like i am writing you a book just in my answer, lol!)
where people swap books:
www.paperbackswap.com - do a search for others - just type book swap.
happy reading!

I dislike ebooks since they are hard to take with you to the bath or bed. Audio books are nice, but I still prefer my books with pages I can turn. I am going to recommend Charles de Lint, Kim Harrison, Eric Flint, David Weber, Michael Flynn, Patricia Briggs, Rachael Vincent, Harry Turtledove, Harry Harrison, John Scalzi, Robert Sawyer, and Stephen Baxter to just name a few.
