give me a thing to read

Postby FlipMode » January 15th, 2014, 4:38 pm

Going on a book buying spree, post some suggestions here and I'll probably pick them up :)
don't suggest the common ones that everyone has already read though, looking for some more personal recommendations if y'know what I mean?
Aight, go.

How about J.R.R. Tolkien's books?

Marley and Me gave me the feels, but it is still one of my favourite books.

If you haven't read it, The Perks of Being a Wallflower comes highly recommended.

Feel ALL the feels :)

[quote="Nicholas"]How about J.R.R. Tolkien's books?[/quote]

Oh gosh yes! I still need to read The Silmarillion! Thanks for reminding me.

Will check out any recommendations you beautiful people make :)
I have a lot of stuff to read over the next couple of months now. This is a thing that makes me happy.
On an unrelated note - I'm reading Legend by Marie Lu recently, it's like Hunger Games but better, check it out if you're into that sort of stuff.

I would suggest Looking for Alaska by John Green

That was the last book I recently read and it was so good. I recommend it. :)

OH noice :) well I think I will just look through all of Mr.Green's works and read them at random to be honest. I know he wrote a book in collaboration with... Oh Jeez, that guy who wrote "every day" whose name I forget right now even though it was one of the best books I read last year :D I will know it when I see it though.

David Levithan?

Also, Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell is turning out pretty good. And I've heard wonderful things about her other novel, Eleanor and Park.
