i'm reading "the Rivals" by sheridan, an 18th century play but tis funny cuz they call the drivers of horse-and-carriages WHIPS(the main souce of transportaion basically befiore they had cars)
i wonder if thats why soem rappers call cars whips...

A Prayer for Owen Meany

^Quite possibly the best book I've ever read.
Long, but it goes fast, and is well worth the read.

Re: question to the literate
 

^^Yep. I read that book for my summer reading requirement for history...not bad

the shining................bllllllaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh no ones read that.............................................. ............scary----pepppps

do they have that at borders?

They should have that book man, I don't see why not. If not maybe Barnes and Noble would have it. That's a good book for real.

heres a big reccomendation..... SLAM... for basketball fans and about a young black basketball players.... well written

I'm into S.A.S stories and shit like Dracula, that books ill for an old book, shit endin tho, takes 5 lines for em to see dracula and kill him. What's that bout?

Lord Of The FLies is good with it's suggestive nature of religion. Ernest Hemingway has some great books, like Old Man and The Sea, A Farewell to Arms and For Whom The Bell Tolls...

And if ya want a psychological rollercoaster, check out Fyodor Dostoevsky, books like Crime and Punishment, Memoirs From The House Of The Dead, i think it was said he was genuinely insane, but anyway...
Gabrial Garcia Marquez, Love In The Time Of Cholera, I didn't like Crucible too much as a play or written as a scripted play, but it's allegory, Animal Farm is definitiely a good representation of communism, totalitarianism and the vices of modern politics...

The Watchers by Dean Koontz, a bit trashy but quite well written, in it's own way...

A Clockwork Orange, now that's fucked, but brilliant, better to read than watch i think, I read some Charlotte Bronte, and Sense and Sensibility but it isn't great, a bit too "English", cliched...

The Lord Of The Rings books are much better than the films, A Picture Of Dorian Gray, the unabridged is real nice in it's descriptive manner, and has an interesting moral...

But I must say I did enjoy the Harry Potter books simply because they were so imaginitive, a different world within your own...

Catch 22 is funny as hell, definitely tragic comedy, but it appeals to human nature, The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli, more of a political guide then a novel but it outlines western politics very well, though it's based more on princedoms then republics, you have to make the nessecary alterations in your mind...

They're my favorite reads, a bit much but hey!

Pride n Prejustice is ok DMX's autobiography is v. good

*bored* .
