I have been reading Tuesdays with Morrie and I'm glad to say that tonight I will be finishing the book. Its a book about life and how to live it. A book worth reading and really an eye opener for those people who concentrate their life on less important things. I'd like to think of the next book I'm gonna read after reading Tuesdays. Would you recommend anything that would be worth my time? Thanks!

I recommend a book called "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" by Richard Bach. It is a short story that will only take a few hours to read but is very uplifting and motivational. It inspires us to be more than just normal! It is basically about a seagull that chooses to ignore the everyday life of an average seagull and rather than spend his days fighting for food and just surviving he chooses to master flight. He ends up kicked out of his flock and turned away by his family but he eventually finds perfection and others like him. I have read this book many times over 20 years or so and still love it every time I read it!

Richard Bach inspires well. He has another book which i forgot the title. It is a beautiful love story, about a man in search of his soul mate. It's sort of mystical but the values it presents hold true to our lives today. It reminds us of our dreams and it makes us believe in destiny, soul mates, and true love once again. It is also about faith, and man's relentless search and hope for the promise of love. I think i gifted a friend, Hazel that book.

Hello pinky, the title of the book is The Bridge across forever. Heres the first few lines of the book. I just love it. " we think, soemtimes, there's there's not a dragon left. Not one brave knight, not a single princes gliding through secret forests, enchanting deer and butterflies with her smile." " we think sometimes that ours is an age past frontiers, past adventures. Destiny, its way over the horizon, glowing shadows galloped past long ago, and gone". Wow, its really amazing, I love Richard bach.

Okay, then. I will be including this in my list. My best friend is currently reading John Grisham books and I also consider reading those.

If you read Tuesdays with Morrie and enjoyed it, I would strongly suggest "The Five People You Meet in Heaven", by the same author. Talk about a book that makes you think!

Tuesdays with Morrie and The Five People You Meet in Heaven both made me cry a lot and made me reflect about my attitude towards other people and my purpose in life. The two books made me a better person.

My friend Savo Heleta wrote a wonderful book called Not my Turn To Die, Memoirs Of A Broken childhood In Bosnia. He lived in Bosnia during the war, and had an amazing experience. He went throuth hell living through war, but his loving wonderful family held together, and their story is amazing.

Yup, it's a lovely book - inspiring, sad and very moving! The same author, Mitch Alborn, has another book called 'The 5 People You Meet in Heaven'. It's another great book!

Try reading the book series written by Stephenie Meyer. The series is called 'The Twilight Saga'. It is about a vampire who fell in love with the woman she was supposed to kill. There are many readers of this story in our school, and I became curious as to what it's all about. Then, when I went to my favorite bookstore, I saw a book- a book with black background and an apple in the hands of a person as its cover. I was intrigued by it so much and I was like "What does the apple symbolize?" and "Is it really that wonderful to be a best-seller?". But I ended up buying it. When I started, it felt like I could not stop reading. I continued and continued 'til I finished it. It really is a very wonderful book series. The books are in this order: 'Twilight'-'New Moon'-'Eclipse'-'Breaking Dawn'. Then, there comes the fifth book- which is 'Midnight Sun'. I really hope that you can read this. It is a very well-written. And full of suspense, too!
