This thread is pretty self-explanatory. It is simple, but useful, as it's a way to pass on suggestions about books, fictional or otherwise, to others. While some aren't really masterpieces in my list, I blame the fact that I don't read much. Anyway, here are my ten favorite books: 1: The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy 2: The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde 3: Colors of Magic (By Terry Pratchett) 4: 48 Laws of Power (Non-fiction) 5: How to Be a Winner (Non-fiction) 6: Artemis Fowl 7: The Thirteen and a Half Lives of Captain Bluebear 8: 100 Höjdare (100 goodies, Swedish book. I doubt it'd be of any entertainment to a non-Swede, however) 9: 3000 Fun Facts About Sweden (They actually are fun... >.>) 10: Lord of the Rings |
