I haven't read books for a long time already and it seems that it is a good time to pick up reading again now. So could you suggest a good one for me? I haven't got much reading experience before and I only have read Harry Potter before.

That depends on what kind of stories you like. If you like a suspense-thriller, try reading the books of Jefferey Deaver, example the Bone Collector. It's novel about solving a crime using forensics that was made into a movie, starring Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie. He has other novels like, The Stone Monkey, The Coffin Dancer and the Devil's Teardrop. If you like to read a romantic comedy, try reading the Undomestic Goddess by Sophie Kinsella. There's another one, the one titled, "Can You Keep A secret?" If you like classics, try reading "Little Women." If you like romance, try reading the Notebook and historical romance, try The Jester. Happy reading and Happy my lotting!

I read this book a few weeks ago and really loved it: Dean Koontz author Your Heart Belongs to Me Its a very easy read and very full of suspense. I think that anyone can enjoy this book as it isnt oo scary or complicated. Plus it has a very important message in the end. Whatever you decide to read, enjoy it and its great that you are taking such a positive step. Reading is a wonderful past time.

I would suggest you read "Lord of the Rings". There are three books in the series and it is really a great story told in a fascinating way. You will be hooked onto the book in no time

Book from Tolkien.. starting from Silmarillion. But if your into royalties schemes and plots.. try reading G.G.R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire series. But I am more into fantasy so I have books such as Dragonlance Chronicles and Eragon. If you want to laugh try Pratchett I like his books. Better try Pratchett to laugh from time to time while reading. But if you some serious reading aim for Tolkien.

I have never read the Harry Potter series. But you might like the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer. I like the Alex Cross novels by James Patterson. The first one is Along Came A Spider I believe.

Hello, I'm a book lover as well :) It really depends on what topics you like to know more about. For fashion, I suggest you read The Little Black Book. Its more than the usual stereotype that is just shallow and everything. It will really give you tips on te do's and dont's of fashion in everyday life. For Philosophy-related books, I suggest you read the books of Paulo Coelho-- Veronica decides to die, The Alchemist, and By the River Piedra I sat down and wept. Try reading those books :)

Hello faisai!!! Currently I am reading Meyer, Stephenie New Moon the second book after Twilight. Like Harry Potter it was also shown on the bog screen. I suggest that you read the four books first before you watch the adaptation of it in movies because I find it more interesting than watching it because in novel the story is not condensed.
