Okay, back when I was a kid I was an avid reader. I would start in the early morning, and then stay up until 1-2 in the morning reading.
As a young adult, every chance I got I was reading. I would go to bed at 9 or 10, but read once again until 1-2 in the morning.
Then something changed, I stopped reading fiction, and began to read only educational type books. And by that, I mean books on business, or how-to type books, so nothing that would enrich me creatively. This has gone on now for well over 10 years, and I personally think my creativity has suffered from it.
So, I'm going to go to the library and pick up a book or two, read it, and give a report on it within a month...LOL. The only reason I'm going to post a report, is to ensure that I actually read the damn thing.
Plus, all of my how-to / educational books are going to be boxed up until I get back into the habit of reading for entertainment.
So, with that in mind. Please suggest a book or two to read. Fiction only.
Thanks in advance.

"Glamorama" by Brett Easton Ellis (he also wrote American Psycho, Rules of Attraction and Less than Zero which are also good).
"Money" by Martin Amis (I have enjoyed every Martin Amis book I read, but think this is my favourite).
"On the Beach" by Nevil Shute.
"Lucky Jim" by Kingsley Amis, Martin's father. I have to warn you several non Brits didn't enjoy this book half as much as me, but it had me in stitches.Paul

Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series is my absolute fave. You know how when you read certain books the characters are painted so vividly that it's hard to believe they aren't real? That's how I feel about her characters.Need Hosting? Reality Check Network services me purrrfectly!

Why are you laughing at him????
I think it's great that he liked it.
She was incredibly witty and forward thinking. For me, it's her wit that makes her books so fantastic to read. You also have to consider that she was writing during the very beginning of the 19th century, which is another thing that makes her work so amazing to me. Gender roles and expectations were pretty much written in stone during that period. She couldn't even write under her own name and never received any recognition until after her death.
And whoever above mentioned Choke, that was actually one of the books I bought the other day. I haven't started it yet.War National Damn Champions EagleComment

best book I've ever read.
Anything by Vonnegut will please on many levels.
David Sedaris' "Me Talk Pretty One Day" or Christopher Moore's "Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal" are both laugh out loud.
Gore Vidal writes some terrific historical novels.
Dan Delillo is strong too.
Brothers K is supposed to answer all life's questions and I loved "The Alchemist" too.
You could also try Herman Hesse, "A Journey To The East" or "Siddharta".
FTR- "A Tale of Two Cities" was written by Charles Dickens.Comment

haha, that was probably me as I did like the 1st 5 books in the series just not the 6th one.Were you the one that I was posting with about the James Patterson books awhile back? Someone had given me one of the Women's Murder Club books and I didn't really like it and wasn't going to finish reading it, but there was someone here who enjoyed them and told me to stick with it.
It ended up not being my cup of tea, but if it was you, I just read something the other day about them making the books into a tv series this fall. I can't for the life of me remember who the actress was that may star in it, but she was someone from a pretty well known tv show that was canceled (I think).

I don't think so about yr 1st paragraph. There are TONS of classics for one, and two, people who read and are asking for suggestions, would not have necessarily any exposure to the classics. They might be an avid reader of trashy "romance" novels. Most avid readers read shit.To be honest, if someone who reads asks for book suggestions, I naturally assume they're looking for opinions on either new or more obscure stuff. I wouldn't think I'd have to recommend any of the classics that most everyone has heard of or has already read, unless they specifically request it.
My favorite author is Jane Austen. My favorite book is Pride and Prejudice, but I love any of her writings. I still probably wouldn't have suggested it because I'm not sure if guys would enjoy it as much, lol. But if he hasn't read it already and wants to do so and report back, I would love to see what he thinks.
I'm a dude and I want to read Jane Austen. Good suggestion there.I don't always drink beer, but when I do, I wish I was drinking wine instead.Comment

The Secret
by Rhonda Byrne
amazon says
Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Supporters will hail this New Age self-help book on the law of attraction as a groundbreaking and life-changing work, finding validation in its thesis that one's positive thoughts are powerful magnets that attract wealth, health, happiness... and did we mention wealth? Detractors will be appalled by this as well as when the book argues that fleeting negative thoughts are powerful enough to create terminal illness, poverty and even widespread disasters. The audio version of this controversial book, read by Byrne and contributing authors such as John Gray and Neale Donald Walsch, is uneven at best. The cheesy, obvious sound effects will not do much to add intellectual respectability to a work that has been widely denounced as pseudoscience. Mostly, this audio is hampered by its confusing and disjointed organization?techniques that worked reasonably well in the print version and the movie, such as cutting every few seconds from one enthusiastic expert to another, make for a choppy and somewhat bewildering listening experience. The gentle cadences of Rhonda Byrne's breathy, Aussie-infused voice are certainly the best part of the audio, but her material is scarce and provides mostly connective tissue between the testimonials.

Book Description
Fragments of a Great Secret have been found in the oral traditions, in literature, in religions and philosophies throughout the centuries. For the first time, all the pieces of The Secret come together in an incredible revelation that will be life-transforming for all who experience it.
In this book, you'll learn how to use The Secret in every aspect of your life -- money, health, relationships, happiness, and in every interaction you have in the world. You'll begin to understand the hidden, untapped power that's within you, and this revelation can bring joy to every aspect of your life.
The Secret contains wisdom from modern-day teachers -- men and women who have used it to achieve health, wealth, and happiness. By applying the knowledge of The Secret, they bring to light compelling stories of eradicating disease, acquiring massive wealth, overcoming obstacles, and achieving what many would regard as impossible.

If you want to laugh your ass off....
A Confederacy of Dunces - John Kennedy Toole
Toole killed himself and his mother had pestered Walker Percy with his manuscript until he finally read it. He loved it and helped get it published. It won the Pulitzer Prize.
"A green hunting cap squeezed the top of the fleshy balloon of a head. The green earflaps, full of large ears and uncut hair and the fine bristles that grew in the ears themselves, stuck out on either side like turn signals indicating two directions at once. Full, pursed lips protruded beneath the bushy black moustache and, at their corners, sank into little folds filled with disapproval and potato chip crumbs."Comment

there's been some interesting mentions in this thread...
I always wondered this:
If you were presented with a video AND it's book...
what would you do first - watch the vid or read the book ??
and
Whats more popular - paperbacks or hardbacks... ??
I personally would do this:
read the book first
then watch the vid
and I prefer paperbacks - they are more adaptable to whatever position
my body wants to be in - to read... LOL
I hate reading something someone else has touched...
I need to be the first one to read it fresh...
(same with the newspaper... LOL)
