Just posting this to see if anyone has good book recommendations. Just post any book that you've read int the past that you liked or want to read. Ill give some of mine

1)Killing Angels- a book about the Battle of Gettysburg during the Civil War
2)The Maze Runner- really interesting series about survival as a group
3)Pathfinder- a pretty good sic-fi book about humans going to populate another planet
4)Percy Jackson and the Olympians- just great overall series
5)The Bourne Ultimatum and others- a really good spy book about a spy who is hunted by his agency

These are some good reads, and go ahead and post some of yours!

I'll definitely give some of these a try, I love reading. I'm reading The Inheritors by William Golding, it's about a tribe of Neanderthal who struggle to come to terms with humans appearing.

Mainly in to non-fiction shit. If you're into space and shit try Cosmos by Carl Sagan, interesting stuff.

Cold Mountain- A fictitious story about a soldier escaping to his homeland during the American Civil War. A fantastic book.

Back when I used to be a book worm I read about 3/4ths of the books Brian Jacques wrote. I found them extremely entertaining.
Here's the list of the books: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redwall#Books

Percy Jackson and the Olympians  - awesome fiction novel cause I just LOVE Greek Mythology

Heroes Of Olympus - the sequel series to Percy Jackson still haven't read the last book because I don't wanna end it so soon :3

Artemis Fowl - still reading the series but love it so far.

The Kane Chronicles - not as good as Percy Jackson but good novel.

That's about it. (yeah I love Fiction Novels)

To Kill a Mockingbird. A novel about a black man being racistly accused of raping a white woman, really moving and makes you consider all the prejudice that went/goes on.

The Catcher in the Rye - Salinger, probably my all time favorite
The Devil - Tolstoi
Faust - Goethe
The Divine Comedy - Dante
The Alchemist - Coelho

These have all represented enjoyable readings.
