Im Heather. 17 years. Im a relapsed drug user and cutter: ( And one thing ive learned is that i get a better high from books and from learning so ready with my library card and bus pass and boring days to fill up il bus anywhere to get a good read. have any suggestions ?, i assume that writers like myself read quite a bit too my personal favorites are: FightClub Crank Impulse Go Ask Alice
At your age, try the bestsellers... John Grisham, Agatha Christie, James Patterson.. the likes of them. Mitch Albom's not your cup of tea, I suppose...but try his newest, For One More Day...
i really enjoyed The Kite Runner The Glass Castle and Blink are bestsellers this year. i really liked these and they are worth reading!
Try the book called "5 go mad on mescaline" or get the dvd another good one is "Fly Fishing By J.R. Hartley" or British Rail Scrapbook 1950. Photographs covering every region taken in 1950 and including many pre-grouping locomotives and coaching stock. Pictorial laminated boards, Ian Allan, 1978, pp64. VG £3.95
I read go ask alice and found it to be a great story...btw also maybe check out: 1984 and The Picture of Dorian Gray = both are awesome!
Check out all of Wildes work along with that last one...I got a book with TPODG, his plays, and all his poems in it for ten euro...score! Try getting hold of an English literature book from any friends who've finished college. A friend of mine gave me one with over a thousand pages, divided into sections by century, and then topic. It has poetry, plays, novels, excerpts.etc. It includes a lot of diverse work as well, from Frankenstein to Darwins Origin of the Species. I doubt I'll ever finish it, but it's nice to have it there.
i hate magazines for chicks my age 'whats in fashion' 'how to make guys like you' BLAH, im more for books.
Try the 2007 Wisden Almanac, my dear. It is a promising read, and includes good old Paul Collingwood, who is a century maker against the West Indies at Lords.
Damn Kether...that's actually a great idea. I remember we had a textbook like 2 years ago that had a bunch of good stories...Beowulf-->MacBeth-->more modern stuff
Try the Illiad by Homer, I believe also The Oddessey by Homer (erm yes its where homer simpson got his name) they are early greek stories about the war with the Trojans I believe and they are very significant today as software companies are fighting the trojans now
