thanx again :)
hey..
i recommend:
the secret life of a schoolgirl (rosemary kingsland)
the five people you meet in heaven (mitch albom)
tuesdays with morrie (mitch albom)
a good house (forgot the author)
the suitcase kid (jacqueline wilson)
try reading a series. the nancy drew and hardy boys collection is immortal. i cant say anything about the harry potter series because i only read part of the first book and didn't enjoy it. a lot of the stuff i've written are short stories...
hope this helps, a bit...
happy reading

i just finished this book, and i think a couple people probably already recommended it, but it's just WONDERFUL - Orwell's 1984.
So far no one's mentioned "The Great Gatsby" or The Little Prince" in this forum.
Recomended reading:
-Animal Farm: Gearge Orwell
-Brave New World: Aldous Huxely
-The Heart is a Lonely Hunter: Carson McCullers
-Call of the Wild: Jack London
-Night: Elie Wiesel
-Flowers for Algernon: Daniel Keyes
