HEY ALL,
Has anyone read the books SLAVE or DESERT FLOWER

i just finished harry potter and the half blood prince(e-book) and I'm starting on the Da Vinci Code now(also an e book) didn't really like the end of the half blood price but it was still a very good book(for those of u who like harry potter and don't use the films to judge the books)

hmmmmmmmm i wont even bother reading the book cos i guess it will be the same story line as the movie.

I scarcely read novels. I'd rather prefer to watch the movie if it's got any coz I'll always occupied. That doesn't mean I don't read at all. Right now, I'm reading "The 4th book in the Left Behind series titled 'Soul Harvest'"
The book tells of a senior airplane pilot who was trying to ask his senior flight attendant out when suddenly over a 100 people or so on board got missing mysteriously.

These books are really gripping and co-authored by Tim Lahaye and Jerrry B. Jenkins.

I sure so recommend the series.

Am currently reading MEMOIRS OF EXTRAORDINARY POPULAR DELUSIONS, BY CHARLES MACKAY.

Hardcore computing textbooks are the next thing i used to, the only problem is that they are very expensive and very hard to come by here.

I also read lots of e-books on computing and technology too.

i love jaqueline wilson books

now am reading
get real by mimi thebo

I am reading How to be a Nigerian by Peter Enahoro. Its a very funny book every nigerian MUST read. it shows how we behave, the importance we put on being a chairman (like me ) It was written in the 60's but still holds true till today, showing that nigerians have not changed.

Well, I have so many books am reading but, I'll just mention one JAMES HADLEY CHASE , "The dead stay dumb".

The Professor and the Madman -- S Winchester.

started catch-22 (forgot author). i'm not done yet though. i'll prob'ly dump the book.. it's really boring.

Chairman, I could not agree with you more . How To Be A Nigerian is absolutely hilarious. It's indeed a MUST read for all book lovers.It captures the thinking faculty of the average Nigerian. Do yourself a favour, look for it please in any of the local bookshops.

i thought that they say that we dont read in Nigeria, well done people. I read the Satanic verses once and would like to read it again,i want to read Puzo The last Don the only type of literature I cannot read is Romacnce I once tried to read mills and boom it gave me serious headache I could not understands how a mature man would park his car in the middle of the road because he wants to kiss his neigbhour.
my favorite author is Fredick Forsthye closely followed by Arthur Hailey but my favorite novel is Roses in winter the novel that has engaged me the most is Roots I read it in less than 2 days non stop without eating.
I have stoped reading sydney Sheldon i just feel that he is a wimp apart from Temple all his heroes are females.
Biographies are what really trips me at the momemt.
At present i am reading three books The Wild Swans (Three daughters of China), XPd and brotherhood of war (the captains)
I have stoped reading inspirational book they tend to interfere with my focus sometmes pulling in different directions. but i would like to introduce the last inspirational book that I read the Lessons of failure by Somi Uranta

Slowpoison..... erm... because Sidney Sheldon's heroes (heroines by the way) are women, he is a wimp? ..... Interesting concept.

Ra u said it all ... really interesting concept abi?

God's Generals - Roberts Liardon

Just finished "Da Vinci Code". it was a powerful story, but one shouldn't take the "facts" too seriously!

i read that book. i know right. it tells you Jesus had some wife and daughter.

the guy that wrote that is only doing that to make some money. does he think that those crusaders fought for nothing. and there is no prove for his stupid writeup.

I could not bring myself to finish that book. It was full of bollocks. Downright sacrilegious is what it was.

Think And grow Rich - Napoleon Hill

Stargirl -- Jerri Spinelli

i read it before but i'm reading it again because i like it.

@ Chairman and Ra
How to be a Nigerian is a must read!

@ Latoya, Who are the Authors of the 2 African Books you mentioned?

DaVinci Code eh? It s a book that everyone should read and take with a pinch of salt, me thinks!

I am currently reading Life of Pi, by Yann Martel, winner of the 2003(or so) Man Booker prize award

Ra, legs and any other slighted person should forgive me I am so so sorry , I tried not to sound like a chuavinist that is why I used Hero and not Heroine or Shero . I even tried to cancel that offensive word wimp

suprisingly i just finished reading an abridged version of "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen. come to think of it their "do or die" idea about marraige in the 18th century sure is funny/silly if u look at it from a modern day perspective. still on Pride and Prejudice i just rewathced "You've Got Mail" by Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. its a real nice romantic movie with references to Pride and Prejudice here and there http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=hv&cf=info&id=1800020044

you read that book? i dumped it in like the 50th page. the book is good but i just had a hard time reading it with out a dictionary. all those old english words.

abriged version? what's that, the easy one. i need to finish that book.

Right now i'm readin 'LESLIE' by Omar Tyree He's really good , any1 read some of his books?

nah. i don't really like those kind of books but i'll read one of them someday when i have completely nothing to do. everyone's reading those books are they really that good?
