I'm to busy loving my name UP ON THAT LIST

Post  Devv on Sun Aug 31, 2008 2:52 pm

|8 Okay so.
I have this bad habit of picking up bad books, and I've been dying to read something good for once. .-. Any suggestions?
(anything but the Twilight series. XD I tried reading the first one...and I got to page 77 and had to stop. It was...ugh. I can go on and on about how much I hated that book.)

I dunno what kinds of things you're in to! But I have that same terrible thing with always picking up bad books. And the thing is, it's this -thing- of mine to never leave a book unfinished, so uh, yeah. I finish them. It's like a curse. AND OH GOD I'M SO GLAD I'm not the only one who couldn't stand the Twilight series. UGH IT READ LIKE A BAD, -BAD- STORY OFF FICTIONPRESS. Why, WHY does it have such a scary... what's it called, cult fanbase? I worked my way through the first book and couldn't take any more.

ANYWAYS, ON TO BOOKS I LIKE?!

If you like satires/funny books, check out some Terry Pratchett! I highly recommend The Color of Magic, Going Postal, um... The Wee Free Men... GAHHHH I dunno. I could list all of his books because I love Terry Pratchett's stuff.

If you've never read Lewis Carroll's Alice In Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, definitely do so for a real trippy, drug-filled ride.

For just a real touching story, I loved The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini.

For random poems and crap like that, Edgar Allen Poe is a favorite of mine, and John Keats (Ohhh I love the poem "Lamia"). Ehehe you could probably find all their stuff off Google, too.

And, for a book that has a really -stupid- sounding plot, but one I enjoyed very much, Relic and its sequel Reliquary by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child are enjoyable.

If you've never read any of the Redwall books (Brian Jacques), I... I liked them and thought they were really cute.

Oh! And for one giant EPIC POEM read Beowulf! I loved the translation by Seamus Heaney. I've read excerpts of other translations, but Seamus Heaney's translation is by far the best.

I can't really think of anything else! I-I hope you enjoy... my book selections? XD;

hgjghg I once had this argument with this kid at my school about Twilight and I pwn'd him. No lie. I told him EVERYTHING wrong with that book and he was all,' HE STALKS HER BECAUSE HE LOVES HER!!!'......I gave up after an hour. .-. He had no evidence to support it.

;u; Thanks Edge. <3
XD I'll read anything and everything really.
