I want everyone to write down a short list of the best books they read in the last year or anytime really. There is a load of books I've been meaning to read but just haven't found the time!
My list goes something like this :
Any book by Terry Prachett. I recommend them to anyone who has a sense of humour. They are absolutely hilarious!!
The Day the Bubble Burst (about the Wall Street Crash 1929 - v.g.)
Noughts and Crosses by Malorie Blackman Absolutely fantastic book. I recommend it to anyone over 13 as it is quite sad but memorable for ever! Totally original with a point of view never taken before!
Hope to hear from all of ye bookworms

thanks

Can anyone tell me if "The Da Vinci Code" is worth reading? It sounds interesting from what I've heard so far.

Well, its reather difficult for me to choose. I like the Harry Potter Septology (not that anyone ever uses the word "septology"), the Bartimaeus Trilogy, the Inheritance Trilogy, the Lord of the Rings and Sherlock Holmes. Its a bit difficult for me to choose, really. But those are my favourites.

Yeah, the Da Vinci Code is worth reading. But ifyou really want a good read, you should try Angels & Demons. Its been written by Dan Brown - the same author.

The Da Vinci Code may be an interesting read, but don't take it as fact. If u dig deeper u'll see that none of his arguments stand up to scrutiny.

Best books I've read recently:
"Ilium" & "Olympos" by Dan Simmons
"Emperor" series by Conn Iggulden
"Book of Hiram" by Christopher Knight & Robert Lomas
