Yey! Great idea!
I recommend Harry Potter 1 - 5
Teehee!!!
Just kidding.
Honestly: The Physician, Noah Gordon
Shaman, same
The discworld series, Terry Pratchett
The BFG, Roald Dahl (children´s book)
Lord of the Rings Trilogy, You - know - who
Little women, Louisa May Alcott
Pride & Prejudice, Jane Austen
Should we write a little review to each book, like what it´s about?

I'm rereading Maya, by Jostein Gaarder.
I also recommend almost all the books he wrote - sry, I only know the titles in Portuguese... Just a warning: they're most philosophical
Contact is very good (by Carl Sagan).

So it's Sophie's world... I loved the book, but as I didn't know the name in english, I didn't mention it!

I've read Sophie's world and I just couldn't belive... You know. I don't wanna say because I could spoil somebody's reading. I've read-I don't know the original name of the book-but if I would translate it from croatian to english it would be:The secret of playing cards.
But translation is always different, so I don't know does it mean anything-but I loved that book.
I also loved "Eva Luna" by Isabele Allende

hi guys,
yes it would be better if we wrote a little summary of the books we give out the names....
Im reading a book wright now about a women how investigates on the funding of terrorist groups in the middle east, the funding taking place in the Us
Its called terrorist hunter and for security reasons she does not sign her name so its written by anonymus..
havent finished it yet but it is very interesting [/quote]

Well, I recommend anything by Oscar Wilde. The importance of being earnest is hilarious...and Lady Windemere's Fan ain't half bad either. De Profundis is amazing, the first half, the last half...to me, feels like I'm reading a spiritual awakening story...but, it's worth the read anyway.
Mein Kampf is awful good, eh?

These are Mine and Lizzy's threads. I was looking for books similar to HP and Lizzy was looking for just great books.
