what genre is it? i like all types of books. my favorite is mystery,horror, and ture stories. the books i recently read is true blood. and dead generations can't wait to get the second book. its about a girl who falls in love with a dead kid. alot of dead kids are coming to life in this town and they think its because of some kind of food they ate before they died or some other reason. so the living and the dead go to the same school. its like a racism kind of book instead of the racism being about color its about being dead and alive. i recomend this book now reccommend me one.
what do you like about the book that your recommending me to. how old is this book? is it kind of recent between the last 5 years?
what didn't you like about the book?
how many stars do you give it out of 5 being the highest?

I recomend The Clan of the Cave Bear series by Jane M. Auel. It has action, drama, adventure, overcoming adversity, kicking butt, romance, living out in the wilderness, magic and it is written so beautifully with really well developed characters and a totally engrossing plot. The first of the series is called Clan of the Cave Bear, they made a movie about the book in the eighties with Darrell Hannah from Splash with Tom Hanks, but the movie sucked. There is another book I read recently wich would be a gread read if you like psychology and fairy tales. It's called Women Who Run With the Wolves, by Maria Pinkola Estes. If you are a man you should read this one, if you are a woman you should read it and then give it to man and make him read it.

For those who like high fantasy books ( fantasy mixed with midlle age, like Lord of the rings) I recommend The wheel of Time! Its' a well knowed collection of 12 books ( the 12th is been written right now). It's about three guys who have to escape from a goup of monsters because one of the guys is the one destinated to safe the world from caos but doesn't what to be the one and starts to go crazy with is own power.
Altough this looks like a kids story, it isn't. It has a lot of action ( for 12 books, that's great) and you get addict to it!
Strongly recommend it!

OY! I read this and now I just KNOW I'm gonna be going out and buying a whole bunch of books!
One I have recently read that I recommend to everyone is called The Book of Negroes, written by Lawrence Hill.
In short, it is the story of a black woman who was kidnapped as a child from her home in africa and sold into slavery. It details her life journey as a slave over several continents. It is a facinating story and very well written.
I found it on the street. I took it home and ended up staying up all night reading it cover to cover. Definitely 5/5.
