I would recommend To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee to anyone. it's the best book I've ever read. i'm reading Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky at the moment . It's pretty heavy reading but good so far.

If the Wheel of Time turned any slower we wouldn't exist. The first 5-6 books were awsome, after that the story moved so slow it was hard to read. Who the hell wants to read 800 pages about how the leaves sway in wind as Rand is only beginning to relaize he might be having a bad day?MDowdey said:anything robert jordan will change your life.

I liked it, just not enough to get going with the entire genre.
I didn't think it was crappy. Not good enough, as I said, to get me to continue, but it was supposed to be "the" book to get you into Rice's stuff. Which failed with me, so maybe it was crappy if you're saying the others were much better. :mrgreen:bace said:Are you talking "Interview with the Vampire"?
That book was crappy. It was also what the movie was crappily based on. You want a good read, start with "The Vampire Lestat" (Tom Cruise in the movie). I've never read 5 books back to back in my life, but the first books are "written by Lestat", and they're amazing.
Ah yes. Death in Venice...Mitica100 said:And no one mentioned Thomas Mann's Magic Mountain or Death in Venice... Hmm...
bace said:I'm telling you, It was crap compared to the rest. Read "The Vampire Lestat" If you're not hooked from that, then you just don't like her work.
