I enjoy reading to the bone and it's hard to find me without a book, though seldom possible. So I made a thread where we could all share which books fascinated us the most and maybe others just might consider giving it a go as well. I'd like to share three books that I love to the core which are: The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, The Book Thief by Markus Zusak and Th1rteen R3asons Why by Jay Asher. Here are some brief summaries on the books:
(Taken from Barnes&Noble)
The Hunger Games, Suzanne Collins | QUOTE | | In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV. Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives alone with her mother and younger sister, regards it as a death sentence when she is forced to represent her district in the Games. But Katniss has been close to dead before-and survival. |
The Book Thief, Markus Zusak | QUOTE | It’s just a small story really, about among other things: a girl, some words, an accordionist, some fanatical Germans, a Jewish fist-fighter, and quite a lot of thievery. . . .
Set during World War II in Germany, Markus Zusak’s groundbreaking new novel is the story of Liesel Meminger, a foster girl living outside of Munich. Liesel scratches out a meager existence for herself by stealing when she encounters something she can’t resist–books. With the help of her accordion-playing foster father, she learns to read and shares her stolen books with her neighbors during bombing raids as well as with the Jewish man hidden in her basement before he is marched to Dachau.
This is an unforgettable story about the ability of books to feed the soul. |
Th1rteen R3asons Why, Jay Asher | QUOTE | Clay Jensen returns home from school to find a mysterious box with his name on it lying on his porch. Inside he discovers cassette tapes recorded by Hannah Baker–his classmate and crush–who committed suicide two weeks earlier.
On tape, Hannah explains that there are thirteen reasons why she decided to end her life. Clay is one of them. If he listens, he'll find out how he made the list.
Through Hannah and Clay's dual narratives, debut author Jay Asher weaves an intricate and heartrending story of confusion and desperation that will deeply affect teen readers. |
Now let's hear some of yours? |

I love every book of J.R.R. Tolkien. Especially Lord of the Rings and Children of Hurin. My second fav book is Pride and Prejudice (Jane Austen <3). I think Eragon, The Eldest and Brisingr are great fantasy books. I'm also a huge fan of Robert Louis Stevenson Treasure Island! Lately I've been reading George Orwells Animal Farm and have to say it's a really great book! So these are my favourite ones ^^.  |

My favorite books are the ones written by R.A. Salvatore around the character Drizz't Do'Urden. These books are set in the Dungeons & Dragons universe, but even if you are not a D&D fan, you may still enjoy these books.
The action is so well written that you can really picture every move that the fighters make. It is also interesting how Drizz't overcomes various obstacles (not just obstacles as in enemies, but also sexism and racism) and learns from the experiences. Drizz't is a very inspiring character and he is the kind of person I hope to become.
If you are a fan of fantasy, D&D, action, or just an incredible story, I highly recommend picking up one of the books.

I love the Otori Clan series.
Some people don't recognize the books if you just say "The Otori Clan" so if I say "Across the nightingale floor", does it ring any bell?
It's a series written by Lian Hearn. Really good story and most people that like Japan and samurais should love this.
I also enjoyed Battle Royale, the novel.

Evil Genius by Catherine Jinks. The main character is a fresh antihero and it hooks you in deeply.
The Road by Cormac McCarthy. I fall for post-apocolyptic stuff all the time.

The Mortal Instrument Trilogy by Cassandra Clare!!!! It is the best trilogy that I have ever read. It's got romance, action, adventure, mystery, suspense and fantasy. It's really enoyable and the she throws in great twists when you least expect!  Ra-chan |
