I don't know about you, but I love reading books! If you have a good book that you think we'll love, post it and give a brief description (but don't give anything away!) Also, post the author, what ages it's appropriate for, and what type of book (fiction? non? romantic? comedic? fantasy? ect.) Oh, and feel free to discuss any books you do not recommend...

I just finished reading Postcards from the Edge, by Carrie Fisher.
(yes, 'Princess Leia' Carrie Fisher.)
It's a really well-written, funny look at rehab in Hollywood before rehab was cool.

Oh, my sister keeps reading those too. She's very picky about books, but she seems to love them. She keeps telling me to read them but I don't really like books about that kind of stuff, like vampires...

I just finished reading Dairy Queen by Catherine Murdock. It's actually really good and you don't see a lot of the stuff coming; it's quite unexpected. 3nodding Anyway, it's for like teens I guess. I'm 14 and I liked it.


This is what it says in the jacket of the book:

Quote:
When you don’t talk, there’s a lot of stuff that ends up not getting said.

Harsh words indeed, from Brian Nelson of all people. But, D. J. can’t help admitting, maybe he’s right.

Stuff like why her best friend, Amber, isn’t so friendly anymore. Or why her little brother, Curtis, never opens his mouth. Why her mom has two jobs and a big secret. Why her college-football-star brothers won’t even call home. Why her dad would go ballistic if she tried out for the high school football team herself. And why Brian is so, so out of her league.

Welcome to the summer that fifteen-year-old D. J. Schwenk of Red Bend, Wisconsin, learns to talk, and ends up having an awful lot of stuff to say.

I read Twilight. Admittedly it was very good, but Naminote isn't into romance much...

Then I picked up the Saga of Darren Shan...

It's perfect for someone who doesn't really enjoy romance, since it's basically zero. <3
Careful though. You won't see any beautiful vampire boys in this novel! It's all pretty gruesome in some scenes, but it's so much fun to read.

Highly recommended for those who found Twilight saga somewhat a bit too romantic (sorry fans, but I DO like Twilight, although I dislike romance ^.~).
