preacher Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 preacher, ano source and basis nung top 50 books? siguro di kasama sa qualification bible kasi yung pa rin and most read, printed, circulated and translated book e. i also wonder na di kasama yung little pince, das kapital, the prince, etc.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Dude, we're talking about novels lang naman eh. And I don't think anyone has suggested in this thread to read the bible after reading Eco or Harris, among other things ... Anyway, I got the list from www.whattoreadnext.com. Like I said, there's supposed to be 50 pero 46 lang yung nakalagay dun sa site, so go figure. OT. Try nyo rin mga Dean Koontz books, literal na psychological thriller like False Memory.

Riot6 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 My suggestions: All time favorites are any book by William Gibson (ie., Neuromancer, Count Zero, Burning Chrone, Mona Lisa Overdrive, Virtual Light, Idoru, All Tomorrow's Parties). Site: William Gibson The site has other links. Other books I recommend: "State of Fear" by Michael Crichton. Actually the book's story telling, compared to the others he's done, is just okay and maybe even sub-par. However, for those interested in the "Global Warming Crisis" it is a very thought provoking book. He has got a big bibliography appendix to list where he got his information. It's really interesting. "Freakonomics" by Steven D. Levitt & Stephen J. Dubner Just a fun book to read about statistical studies of thing like "what does Sumo wrestling have in common with teaching?" The "Twisted" series by Jessica Zafra I like her sarcastic look on her life. My type of humor. "Memoirs of a Geisha" by Arthur Golden and "Geisha: A Life" by Mineko Iwasaki the book should be read as a pair since Mineko Iwasaki was Arthur Golden's inspiration for his fictional work.

zaizai01 Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Books by Paulo Coehlo, Neil Gaiman, Bob Ong, and Alan Moore. Graphic novels are also great to read as well.... Of course, there's always the mainstream hits like Harry Potter and.. well, Mills and Boons romance stories... Quote Link to comment
