Lovely Bones, Sophies World, We Need to Talk about Kevin, The Eye (ok, that's kind of weird actually. And a bit gross but it's still good), Perfume, Memoires of an Agnostic Dwarf, Peter Pan, Gullivers Travels, Persuasion, Pride & Prejudice, 100 Years of Solitute, Beloved, Mary Mary, The Woman in White, Frankenstein, Dracula, Hamlet, The Twits, A Clockwork Orange...

Nothing phony about any of those but it might help if you give us a genre you're interested in....

Martina cole the last one was crap though i also liked kingdom come by ballard would help if we knew what sort of book you are looking to read :)

[feebal]

Did you find a good book then?

A lot of people went to the trouble of supplying a list of good books and Martina Cole. And I want to know if you've got round to reading any of them. Otherwise, we all just wasted our time.
