I love reading about vampires and forensic thriller. I read alot so I have books piling up so instead of letting them pile up or throw them out, which I'd hate to do, I signed up at bookmooch.com and swap paperbacks.com. Trading books with others is great.

I like to read some spiritual books. My friend sent me one called Grandmother of Time, which I find very interesting. I also love to read about English history and legends. I love Arthurian and Viking stories, and also books about megalithic sites, and how they came about, like Stonehenge and Avebury Stone Circle.
Brightest Blessings.

I can give you quite a list my friend. If you like romantic Arthurian, from a woman's perspective, then read The Mists of Avalon, by Marion Zimmer Bradley... this book incorporates Merlin and Morgana, and the Isle of Avalon, and I loved it. Well worth the money.
Then, I like the way Bernard Cornwell combines history fact with legend, and mixes in a bit of humour her and there. His description of battles leaves you feeling you're there. I would recommend:
The Warlord Trilogy... this is about Arthur, his family and his Knights, particularly Lancelot. It's enthralling reading, and includes, in order of reading: The Winter King, Enemy of God and Excalibur.
The Grail Quest Trilogy: this is about an archer, Thomas of Hookton who goes to France in search of the Holy Grail... Harlequin, Vagabond and Heretic.
Alfred the Great Trilogy: this is about an English Boy who was born into the Northumbrian aristocracy, orphaned at the age of ten and adopted by a Dane, thus growing up a Viking: The Last Kingdom, The Pale Horsement, The Lords of The North.
Then there's Stonehenge, which considers the men and women who built Stonehenge and Avebury. These stone circles are impressive enough today; but all the more so if you imagine shifting stones from Wales to Salisbury Plain by raft and roller, dressing them with burning fat and grindstones, hauling the lintel stones up tiers of platforms.
Brightest Blessings and Happy Reading!

Hi! I love reading books too but I think Im more of the mainstream fiction type of reader. Im not so into spiritual books unless its fiction that has some spiritual side to it like the characters are really spiritual and they turn to God for guidance and it includes some insights into God, faith and religion that sort of stuff. But those books that tell you plainly why God is so good? Well, I already know God is good, so I love to read those stories that demonstrate how God is good. Thats just me, I hope you understand what I mean..
Actually, im not a picky reader, I read everything that I can read. I read the labels on products, the scribbles of my younger cousins, the tag on my clothes. I literally read everything.LOL When I read a book I read it from cover to cover literally. I read it from the spine then to the top of the cover then the copyright and acknowledgements, down to the barcode number at the back cover.^_^

Oh sure! But im dont really know what specific types of books you are interested in except for the spiritual kinds. Well, for starters Im gonna have to recommend my most favorite book of all. Its 'Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas' by James Patterson. It became my favorite book because its the first and only book that made me cry, and im telling you I never cry(at least not all the time, and especially not becuase of some book). Other books with the same level as this for me is 'A Bend in the Road' by Nicholas Sparks, and 'The Alchemist' by Paulo Coehlo, whihc is about self-diiscovery and you might see some connections on how God works his magic and his lessons. Other than these three, I can say 'Chicken Soup for the Soul' books are always a good read. Enjoy!
If you have any more questions, suggestions, comments, violent reactions(^_^), or anything else, dont hesitate to drop me a message.

I choose my books according to my mood and the time available. Basically, I go in for romance and humour. I am addictedto women's magazines and also some favourite books of mine. If I feel tired I pick a book which I have read umpteen times[and still love it] and read it again. I don't mind reading this again.I will remember many passages but I won't get bored.
I have an addiction for books and this is the best way of relaxation for me. Nowadays internet seems to steal some time from me. But mostly this is related to my work.
However, here also, while I browse I get some ineresting titbits , snippets, and I enjoy reading them.
I love certain old books in my regional language[mother tongue ]too and I read and re read them.
Historical facts interest me.
Stories with morals also interest me.
Jokes and humour are favourites. Romances are all time favourites [both languages-English and Tamil]

i love stephen king, really anything suspenseful - right now i'm working on number 4 in the dark tower series...
AND the remnant, by timothy lahaye and jerry b jenkins - from the left behind series.
yes, i CAN read two totally unrelated books at the same time. i don't do it often - it's just that i've waited a long time to find the "next one" in both of these series...

I think that is one of famous books now a days because it is really cool book to read and to know and get knowledge from different discussions in this book and i can suggest you read "Auto biography of a yogi" it is spiritual books and you can get any book stall.

I simply love all fantasy books with knights, dragons, swords and bows. I just like to read about a world that doesn't exist so I can fall into my imagination. And ofcourse I read some famous books;] The most famous fantasy book is propably J.R.R. Tolkiens Lord of the Rings wich is a classic.

I don't read books much like the famous one that your are talking about. I love reading magazine specially when it is all about cars and speed. Yeah I also love reading spiritual book, but I seldom do that for a while. I don't know what is the problem inside me, maybe my faith is starting to disappear...

Hi Dasari100! When I was younger, I love reading romance. Now that I am older, I just love reading inspirational books and spiritual books too. I also read books on success and how to improve one self. I do like reading the Bible too but I admit I don't read a lot nowadays. Just my thoughts dear friend. Take care and have a nice day!

I like reading books myself too, but I mostly read spiritual books and horror books. I just love to read books written by the author Steven King. I think he always finds a way to make the story sound exciting and scary at the same time. What is your favorite author?

I like to read spiritual books also, the ones I read are the inspirational romance, fiction, or historical fiction. My favorite author is Beverly Lewis. I also like Tracie Peterson, and Lori Wick. I have a big collection of these kinds of books, some I will read again, and some I take to the bookstore here in town, and they give me credit for them...
