Book's, book's, book's, book's book's and more wonderful book's!!!!!
Sometime
Galopagos by someone.
Everyone should read this book! Its funny (Catch-22 is as well.) its unique and unexpexted. It's unlike anyother book
you have ever read. Its a small book, a fast read. Listen to it on tape or cd. But read it or listen to it. Stunning, amazing,
incredible and anything but perfect!

Abarat: Days of Magic, Nights of War by Clive Barker I beleive.
A really good book. Admittedly I was in the wrong mood for reading it most of the time but it was good. And the pictures
are fantastic! I'd buy the book just to look at the pictures. I still have to open to book and look. There's soo much to see.
The more you look the more you haven't seen. They're really incredible.

Catch-22 by Joseph Heller
A wonderful book. Very insitful and hightly remarkable. Unlike most other books. For a bit of sarcasm, lots of truths
and opposites this is a great book. Strangely, and dangerously reminding of what is going on now (probubly) in our political
circles. The very highest and most powerful including our President. It personally scares me how alike it is to what I see.

A Norther Light by Jennifer Donnelly
A wonderful book about finding yourself. A coming of age story. With a cover that doesn't match the story at all. (something
I really hate!) For someone who loves history, the past, discovering yourself and murder this is really good. It deals with
truth, and fact as well as opinions. Questioning alot of things. And than, breaking a promise to a dead mother. Breaking it
so that she can live her life. Not pretend to live it having died long ago.

Spellfire by Ed Greenwood.
A pretty good book, wirten for boys to young men. Very much, while not the traditional, run of the mill fantisy. Rather
pradictable, interesting but not enough that I never ever wanted to put it down and refused to go to sleep until my eyelids
closed themselves and refused to open themselves again.
There are some very good ideas, but alot of blockbuster stuff there as well. Recomendable for someone who wants to be
safe (there's a little sex.) and can't find anything better. A time killer. A book one would buy and read on a vacation, than
leave in their hotel room or in the pocket infront of them on the plane.
The Diary of a Young Girl: Anne Frank
4/4/05
It's unbelevable, possitivley stunning. And definitly not a book thats for sixth graders (which was when I read it before,
for fun.) but for 8th grade and up. Particularly high schoolers. It touches on loads of human enotions. It's brutally honest
with both herself, her parents, opinions and everythign else.
I think that msot of us can relate to what she went through, espessually if you haven't forgotten what its like
to be a kid, pre-teen, teen and just a growing person.
I recomend it to everyone, that they take the lesson's to heart. And, at least to me, it was unbeleivably touching, her
hope and beleifs of the future. A future that she was never able to realize, or feel. A future she died before it came.
If you refuse to read this diary I order (even though I have no right) you to go to a book store or to a library
and read the last two entries. Which are so touching and truthful and real. I beleive that we feel exactly what she's expressing,
sometimes more than we wish to admit!
Daughter of Ireland
4/3/05
An amazing book, aall about the druid's in Ireland. Full of fact, fiction and legend. Specifically about on young woman
finding herself, her true love, her child, family and people. Most definetly a mature book so that means it's not for everyone.
Particullarly those not ready to read bout sex (It's not a porn book!) and mature launguage (some swearing)
this isn't the book for you.
Emotion's run rampant in here going from the depths of despair (literally) to absolute and undying love, happyness and
annoyance and everything in between!
Abarat By Clive Barker
-Posted 3/28/05
A wonderful book (which I was coincidently told I would hate). A unique mix of Alice through the Looking Glass
(Which I didn't like) and Eragon (Which is also wonderful) with just a hint of Lord of the Ring's. (Choose
a book, I'm not very picky.)
I suggest it for those looking for a quick read, soemthing diffrent and unique. It's full of fantastic things, particularly
creature's. About the adventure's of a girl and what happens around her.
Lord of the Flies
3/28/05
A haunting book that catches and holds you. One which you can't help but fall into and completely beleivable. How many
nightmares I had about the poor boy who wore glasses and the pig. How terrible and how true it is, the lord of the
flies.
Key To Ambria by Melanie Rawn
Simply unbeleivably good! A very good book. (And no I can't spell, nor will I ever be able to spell) I read it because
of the second book The Mageborn Traitor even more unbeleivable! And am waiting for the third book Captal's Tower
which hasn't been published yet, and was supposed to be ten or so years ago, at least as far as I can figure.
Anyway, this is a book about female dominance and an underground fight against two culture's. One which is (I suppose,
at least how it has often ended up) very communistic. Everything is controlled by absolute power. They tell you what to do
when to do it and with whom. Children, marriage, jobs and even death. Than the one which is present and followed by most people,
the (mostly) free choice to do what you'll do and marry whom you will and have children or not at your own discreation.
A book of power fighting and a bit of politics (not enough so anyone shouldn't read the book!) Plenty of mysteries. Espessually
from the people who their about. The magical girl who doesn't even know who her real parents are. The other magical girl who
doesn't know about her sister. The male musician who's whole past has been blocked from his mind.
Magical, mystical. Plenty of everything you want to read about, romance, intreage, magic, mystery, the fight between
good and evil, even family rivallry.
