Best book you have ever read?

[user123]

I liked 'Who moved my Cheese' too, also "Feel the fear and do it anyway" and "Jonothan Livingson Seagull" by Richard Bach

Feel the fear and do it anyway. I heard that saying not so long ago! :lol:

Is that a book about overcoming fear or is it more in depth than that G?

 

[user123]

It goes deeper than that, Dan, yes it is the main thread but on so many different levels, it's been years since I read it but it made a big impact on me and everyone else I have since spoken to who read it. Try it, it's not for those who prefer not to look further than their comfort zone... worthwhile read, and a big help before big decisions, too...

Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck, Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. A less highbrow one that springs to mind is The Island by Victoria Hislop. Tom Sharpe books have to be the funniest non pc of all time.

...and The Five People You Meet in Heaven

Brilliant. I'll get it!
The mrs needs a xmas list and I have pretty much most things I want so wanted some books I don't have. Never know which ones though and often just end up with loads in a wish list and I never get any :lol:

Cheers for that.

Tom Clancy, Michael Crighton, James Patterson some of Clive Cusslers but they get a bit samey. My favourite has to be Wilbur Smith but he does get a bit long winded with the details. My favourite by him was the first one of his i ever read it was called The Eye of the Tiger. Fantastic book, and a proper 'boys' book i think with treasure hunts and fighting.

I have read the Dan Brown book as well and enjoyed them, Sebastian Faulks isnt a bad authour either 'Bird Song' is a very emotional war story spanning the decades betweent hen and now and well worth a read but it can make you well up a bit!

Edit: The one i really want to read next is Chris Evans autio biog after hearing him on interview the other day, he is a legend! So if anyone was wondering what to get me for Xmas thatll do nicely

He's a crafty guy and quite a business man. He's had a party life, a business life, and now quite a consecutive life.

I heard once he had nothing to do, so he bought a van and said he'd do a free pick up and drop off service for the elderly in his area. Basically a free taxi. And he advertised and advertised and nearly nobody wanted to use it lol - one of his less profitable idea's but nice to think he's willing to give and not just make loads of money.

I'd like to get that book thinking about it you know.

Inspirational stuff; the seagull that flies the highest see's the farthest.

I used to read Lord of the Rings (long beore the films were made) and have read it cover to cover quite a few times, always a new bit in it that I must've missed in earlier readings. For a lot of years I studied Patrick Moore's "Atlas of the Universe" and found that really absorbing. This last year I've been reading Stephen Kings "Dark Tower" series and I think that it has probably made it to the top of my list......at the moment.

Prem if you like Dan Brown then get a copy of 'Holy blood, holy grail' it blows the myth of the Catholic Church and its off shoot the Church of England out of the water.
