Book Recomendations?
Since today was the last day of school, I have tonses of free time on my hands. During the summer, I hold what I like to call 'Reading Marathons.' Basically, I pick a bunch of books and sit there all day reading. It's fun. =) Some of these 'Marathons' have themes like vampires, or the same author. It just depends on what I feel like reading.
I'll read basically anything-- Original fiction, science fiction, fantasy, non- fiction [That's interesting.], and most other genres. I'm open to anything new and interesting. =)
I would really appreciate it if you guys could recommend some books. =) I'm going to the library probably tomorrow, so.. That give you a deadline?
Much appreciated!

The Host by Stephenie Meyer is pretty good. Took me a few chapters to get into it, but once I did I couldn't put it down. It's definitely better than Twilight.

The Catcher In The Rye by JD Salinger.
Kinda cliche with me saying that, but it's a really great fiction book.

Thank you to everyone who has recommended books. =)
I've read some of them, but I'll read those that I haven't read yet.

Hmm.. let me see.. The It Girl series by Cecily von Ziegaser is really good. I'm a huge fan of those. Plus, her Gossip Girl books are really good as well. The House of Night series by P.C Cast is good too, if you're into the whole vampire thing. Um.. let's see.. what else?
-Blue Bloods - Melissa de la Cruz
-The Dating Game - Natalie Standiford
If you like the classics, I'm a huge fan of:
-Wuthering Heights - Emily Bronte
-Pride & Prejudice - Jane Austen
-Slaughterhouse Five - Kurt Vonnegut (SO GOOD!!!!)
-Life of Pi . . I can't remember who this is by, but this is actually pretty good.
That's all I can think of right now, hope I was of some help! :)

Hm...how about the Pendragon and Inkheart series? They're pretty good. And of course, there's endless amounts of manga you can find online. Fictionpress has some book-quality stories (as in 100,000+ words) that I can recommend if you want...
AllyCatXandi, June 5th, 2009 at 01:49:34am
I can only think of one book, sorry. :[
Non-fiction: Girl, Interrupted
But it's super duper amazing. ^.^
Er the only thing of fantasy that comes to mind is Harry Potter. xD
Try the book forums as well, there's tons of topics. :]
