Book Recommendations for everyone! « Reply #3 on: December 13, 2003, 07:03:43 pm » Alright, I'm a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE nerd, to just get that out of the way, and I love sharing my obsession of literature with the world, so, here are a few must reads, in my mind. It's up to you to actually do so. 1984 - George Orwell Dragonlance Chronicles - Weiss and Hickman (if you like fantasy you will enjoy these HUGE books). Invisible Monsters - Chuck Palaniuk Ready, Okay! - Adam Cadre and... One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest - Ken Kesey enjoy  Report to moderator   Logged Judas Iscariot Would? * Offline Gender: Posts: 3843 Lurve. Re:Book Recommendations for everyone! « Reply #4 on: December 13, 2003, 07:46:35 pm » Thanks.  What a nice recommendation.    I noticed 1984 at my library the other day, so I'll try to check that one out.  Report to moderator   Logged Congrats :: Elanor :: Elijah Obsessed!

Well, if you like novels about France and England royalty, I highly recommend you to read: - The 3 musketeers (all 3 books)  - Alexandre Dumas - The 3 crowns - Jean Plaidy Also The Count of Monte Cristo of Dumas (what can I say? I'm a huge fan of Alexandre Dumas) Report to moderator   Logged Nath From The Shire °° LivINg At THe EDge oF REalIty °° Míriel * Offline Gender: Posts: 1729 Re:Book Recommendations for everyone! « Reply #6 on: December 14, 2003, 11:22:55 am » None reads the recommendations anyway...at least no one ever responded to any of the books I read.  Very nice classics though! I like them all. Exept the fantasy, I never read fantasy, except for Tolkien « Last Edit: December 14, 2003, 11:23:19 am by Míriel » Report to moderator   Logged 'Where did I put my chaos?'

I saw the movie first than reading the book, and then I kind of disliked the movie coz they change a lot of things.. Of course, how could they do a movie in 2 hours and a half of a book of almost 1000 pages?? I higly recommend the book.. It's much funnier and definitely much better! You get to understand things you didnt on the movie.. Lol.. you see? I'm talking too much... It's just I can't help it..
