what book have you read recently and will you suggest it to other readers?

I read a Jeanette Winterson book called “The Battle for the Sun”. I think it was actually meant to be the sequel to “Tanglewreck” but you can read it on its own without not understanding any of the story. I love Jeanette Winterson’s adult fiction, so I thought I’d try one of her children’s books. It was wonderful; I couldn’t put it down. It was so magical and eloquent, it really was wonderful and I’m urging my partner to read it because I think he’ll love it too. It’s a fantasy novel.

i read that one too. i really liked the twilight saga. i love it way more than i like the movie series. anyway, the latest book that i have read is the fourth book from another series, percy jackson and the olympians. the fourth one is called the battle of the labyrinth. i also love this series even though it is not as romantic as twilight. i love how rick riordan fused greek mythology in the present time. it is well-written and it just keeps you hooked to it. the first installment of the series was made into a movie already. i actually watched it first before i read it but after reading the series, i have come to love the books more. the movie was so much different, they even happened at different times of percy's life. the books are way better.

I just finished The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan, the writer of the Percy jackson series. I highly recommend it to those who love action/adventure stories. I'm almost finished with The Book Thief by Mark Zusak. It's a story about a family back in the Nazi times. It's a compelling story. I recommend it too.

Hey, I'd recommend any book by Franz Kafka. So far, I've read the Castle and the Trial and I have to say that it is interesting and you can read it quite fast. The way they are written is as if it is a dream - some things appear to be illogical, nonsense, just like in a dream, and you will understand the true essence of the book after you read it.

I read Don de Lillo's The Body Artist. A modern ghost story, as well as a story of loss and grieving, but also of the cadences of everyday life - the rhythms, the aporias, the banalities, the hauntings. Very moving and thought provoking at the same time.

Bill Bryson - A Short History of Nearly Everything Bill is a funny, witty travel author who has traveled to many countries and written tales. But in this book he talks about the beginning of life on Earth and it felt like all my science lessons in school put together in a book for adults, so if you feel you are a bit rusty or actually want to know more in depth about what our Earth is about, where it all came from, what we have disovered so far and what we haven't, I really recommend it, it blew my mind! It's quite scientific but worth it. I got it as a present from someone as I had mentioned I wanted to read it about 6 months prior and when I got it I was totally chuffed cos I didn't even have to make the effort to go and buy it or get it from the library. The Twilight series is ok, I find the English writing very simple but she has a good knack for creating moods and characters. I actually prefer the films for once.

I've recently finished The Secret by Rhonda Byrne.I would really recommend it to all because it is really enlightening.It gave me inspiration and motivation to stay positive in life and there's nothing that can't be accomplished if we just have the firm believe and faith that all these impossible will be possible.It taught me the value of not lingering on the negative things in life because such negative thoughts will attract negative events thus i learned that staying positive and just thinking about all positive things will bring forth positive events. This book is similar with Paolo Coelho's The Alchemist . If you believe it then all things in the universe will conspire to make it happen.
