'State of Fear' by Michael Crichton. Not very good, but due to my severe lack of literary resources I was compelled to finish it. I do believe Crichton's books are getting worse and worse with each new one.
So I just reread 'Boy' and 'Going Solo', Roald Dahl's autobiographies, and they are as good as ever. His life was rather exciting and tulmultous, and as well written as his fictional stories.
i've just read the guardian of time trilogy by marianne curley...amazing...best read ever...the 3 books are the named, the dark, and the key...a load of people protect time, they all have different special power that help them protect the past present and future from the order of chaos .
Technically, the last book I read was Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows but I think a lot of people have read that by now. So the last book I read was Cloudstreet by Tim Winton. Now I really want to read his other book, The Turning.
Oh, I've just started reading 'Shopaholic and baby' by Sophie Kinsella, I've read the previous books in the series, and by the looks of it this one's just as good!
I just got back from vacation where I wanted something light and quick. Usually, in those situations, I go to juvenille fiction, and this was no exception. I read The Extraordinary Adventures of Alfred Kropp by Rick Yancey. It was a fantastic read, and I'd recommend it for any action-adventure junkie in your world (particularly if you have teen or pre-teen kids who are hesitant to read).
'The Scarlet Letter'- Nathaniel Hawthorne. It's good but it took me forever to read. i reckon it was a bit too long, it could easily be condensed down to half its size and not take anything away from the book. It was like these events happen in this chapter , then in the next chapter it was like the same events reworded! and ur like eh hello!? didnt i just read that chapter!
Next on my list is Zora Neale Hurston's 'Their Eyes were Watching God' Truth be told, im not actually reading for fun at the inute, im reading for my uni module on American Literature, cant wait to finish it coz i really wanna read the discworld novels!!!
I just finished The Heart Shaped Box by Joe Hill. It is a rock 'n' roll horror road movie book about an aging rock star who buys a ghost in an online auction. No, really!
It's an exiting book and an interesting story. Joe Hill is the son of Stephen King and his writing is similar.
Frankenstein Makes a Sandwich by Adam Rex. very funny and witty collection of poems about monstears and creatures. a great read for both kids and adults who have forgotten how to laugh out loud.
Great book
