I just like to hear about books that other people have read recently an whether they are worth the read. Include any that you may currently be reading
My last five are
5.The Fountainhead Ayn Rand
4. The silver Kiss (can't remember who it's by, my sis made me read it)
3. Debt of Bones Terry Goodkind
2. Diaries of a Manhattan Call Girl Tracy Quan
and I am currently reading Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand
I liked all of them for various reasons, but I am having difficulty with Atlas Shrugged, I started reading it before I read The silver Kiss. But I will finish it. It's not hard to read, or boring. I am just really busy and keep forsaking it for shorter reads.

1. Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens (Currently Reading)
2. The Reason for my Life by Eva Peron (Currently Reading)
3. Frankenstein by Mary Shelley - I love this book! Her writing style is beautiful. The plot is amazing aswell, and it really makes you consider moral ideas about life, death, and love.
4. The Last Unicorn by Peter S. Beagle - This is a classic children's book. I love to reread it.
5. Pompeii by Robert Harris - It's about roman aquaducts. I read about half of it, got really bored, and stopped.
