If 2009 thread can hit front page in 2017 under Seun territory, then there is no cause to lose hope under God's territory, He will surely pick my call. To the topic Things fall apart--- Chinua Achebe The gods are not to blame ---- Ola Rotimi The incorruptible judge----- Olu Olagoke One week one trouble----- ( I can't remember the author) Chike and the River ----- (Chinua Achebe) No food for lazy man ----- Eze goes to school----- This is our chance.... The drummer boy----- Animal farm ------ Mmiri oku eji egbu mbe------ and many others, though I stopped reading novels in Jss3 |

oolumide: Please who has read ''Lorenzo My Love'' its a novel of an ugly prince who got married to a beautiful lady who hated him simply because he was ugly, it was said she killed(stabbed him) but am not sure why she did or if she did because i was unable to complete the novel, my elder sister gave it out,, i would really like to know why she eventually killed him; if its because all the ladies now liked him for his kindness, if he cheated on her or if she was just tired of his ugliness. Who has read the novel |

Not sure i can recall every book I've read. Most of them were hand me downs with turn cover so i had no idea what the title was but i read all the same. The concubine The return Journey Sunset in biafra Animal farm Oliver twist Hamlet Romeo and juliet Great expectations Tale of two cities God's bits of wood Sizwe Bansi is dead People of the city Joys of motherhood Thirty nine steps Petals of blood Weep not child Hadley chase collection (Make the corpse walk was one of my favorite) A lot of detective novels too. Unreal (favorite stories out of the bunch was "lighthouse blues" and "skeleton in the dunny") Goosebump stories. Harry potter Hunger games by susanne collins. The list goes on plus numerous books I've forgotten. Ade and ghe river or is it Chike |

mohawkchic: Enid Blyton. That writer can paint the perfect pictures with captivating words that would open your sense of imagination and put you right in the story book. I read lots of them. |
