Little Princ from Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.

I read it every single year around my birthday. Always find something new and another layer of wisdom.

...and that is not counting THE Book

The Gone Away World by Nick Harkaway. It's a comedy/drama/horror/sci-fi set in a post-apocalyptic world.

There are also pirates, ninjas and mimes. It's awesome.

Not really sure how to describe the plot, but the style is very Douglas Adams/Terry Pratchett.

90% of what Stephen King puts out is great, with The Stand and The Dark Half being two of my favourites.

Read a book years ago called Freckles that was just brilliant. Can't remember who by.

Red Dragon was the only book that actually made me jump. Scary and brilliant precursor to Silence of the Lambs.

For all you Harry Potter fans out there, try Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch.

Urban fantasy at its finest. And if you know London it’ll have you picturing everything more vividly. Love the series. Can’t recommend it highly enough.

As the blurb says, “What would happen if Harry Potter grew up and joined the Fuzz?”

My favourite is Euripedes' "the Bachhai",I deeply recommend it, despite being written two and a half thousand years ago it has the best grasp of human nature I've ever seen in such a short piece. A close second is Goethe's Faust part 2, after that it's old Shakespeare and ted hughes punching each other in the eye 'til the end of time

The ragged trousered philanthropists. Robert Tressell

Read it in my late teens, and it blew me away, a life long socialist due in most part to this book, made me seek out more like it and like-minded folk.

Changed my life, true inspiration.

Also read Shogun by James Clavell around the same time, my interest in Asian culture was first sparked by this book and isstill strong to this day.

Loved it but was disappointed with his third book as it was disjointed.

I loved how he could make me gasp, I was so engrossed I worried about the characters. Such simplicity in how he unfolded the characters.

"Just read 2 great books. The Book Thief and A Thousand Splendid Suns.

Yep two excellent books, very recommendable

Omg I have read and reread One thousand splendid suns...did you read The Kiterunner? I haven't yet, but intend to x

Two of my favourite books, kite runner is the most beautiful told story, Khalid Hosseni is a gifted writer.

Yes definitely! Tears tripped me when I was reading One Thousand Splendid Suns..even the golden colour of the book cover sunset was gorgeousx

Have you read the red tent? Think you would enjoy it. I have read the girl on the train, pm me when you are finished it for a natter

No, not The Red Tent yet..aye I will digest this girl on the train and then discuss

Excellent stuff, look forward to it. Fab book club sounds great...we could meet up also...to discuss the books of course
