This is a thread for lovers of novels - foreign and indigenous to discuss about the novels (and authors) that they are reading currently or that they just finished reading. Novels can be of any genre.

Angels and Demons By Dan Brown Author of The Davinci Code!!

I read all genres of novel but my favourite genres are SF, historicals, medical thrillers, crime, true life and indigenous children stories.
I have read quite a number of Dan Brown's, Robin Cook's, James Rollins: and Micheal Crichton's.
I just finished reading Cook's Acceptable Risk.

half of a yellow sun by Chimamanda Adichie.

THE PRINCE

Mistress of the game by sidney sheldon

In Nigeria here, we overlook learning differences/difficulties. Parents and teachers deny dyslexia, dyscalculia and so on even when the LD is very obvious in a child. Denial or rejection has never been and will never be of help. Worse still, some parents, guardians and teachers term children with LD "dullards, slow learners, blockheads, olodo" and all the bad names in the world. The truth however is that they are not any of these. It's actually the teachers, parents, guardians, siblings, friends, neighbours and the likes that make life difficult for the children with LD. These children learn differently from the way most people do. But people around them do not understand this. They want to force their style of learning on them and things become difficult, frustrating and fruitless. LD is neither a disease nor a curse. It's just a character or better still a different way of seeing or doing things.
