the last book i read was the kite runner, which i loved; they're making a movie of it - coming out in November of this year, yey !
and now i'm reading Freakonomics, which is amusing.
i'm almost done with it so i need a recommendation on what to read next, pronto !
ideas ?
Fiction:
ReplyDeleteThe Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time
Bag of Bones
The Pilot's Wife
Non-Fiction:
A Short History of Nearly Everything
The World is Flat
Zero: The Biography of a Dangerous Idea
These are off the top of my head. Check out my blog's libraryThing widget for more books if you want :)

ReplyDeleteOh Kinan is at it again with all his book preaching.
ReplyDeleteThe fiction he suggested though, is good. As for the non-fiction, well, looooool, he's quite a fanatic when it comes to ridiculous books :P
I suggest you take a break from reading and go over to your nearest store and get an XBOX 360 with Gears of War.
kj: really... no thanks
ReplyDeleteI liked The Kite Runner, but the ending was a bit commercialized wasn't it?
ReplyDeleteIt was a good read though on the whole.
I'll just steal the books they wrote cuz I can't think of anything.
elijah: the ending wasn't really commercial since it wasn't completely ideal; however i have to agree that there were some unrealistic coincidences
