| I know not everyone likes it, but i really love to read. i love to be able to go into another world and see all the cool things there are and the stories they have. mostly, i read fiction/ fantasy and have probably read over a thousand of those. created this section to see what books you guys have read and what you think about them ^^ | |

| Yo. Don't dis the Hobbit. That shit was epic win and a far better story then LOTR itself.
You guys should check oyt the inheritance series though if fantasy fans. Fox ruined Eragon as a movie (Though Malcovich an Irons were epic casting roles). the books are pretty good, and the final piece book four is scheduled to come out some time this year. |

| I was hoping it woulda Been that. but you know, that hall of souls is probably going to have the elundari of the first eragon;s dragon. a 1000 year old dragon who was the first to bare rider. You know he is going to be godmod hax'd somehow XD. But I do disagree with calling the elundari crystals. >.> Paolini presented them in a absolute unique manner that removes him from using a over used idea. |

| Have any of you read Any books by Dean Koonz? I have read the first 3 books about Odd Thomas and loved them. I will be ordering book 4 soon. Right now I am reeading Breathless by Dean Koonz. This book keeps you wondering what is going to happen next.
Some of my other favorite authors are: James Patterson, Faye Kellerman, Joseph kellerman, Jonathan kellerman, Jeffery Deaver, and lots of others. The lists is very long and you wouldn't read it anyway. Most of my favorite books are mystery storys.
I have also read most of the Star Wars and Star Trek books. In my lifetime I have read 10's of thousands of books. When you consider that I fell in love with books when I was in first grade and have bought thousands of books since then I have made someone a lot of money.
I also have read romance books, but not to much now. I have also read and studied books about the Bible, which I strongly believe in. |

| What do you think about the Harry Potter books? I read all of them because my grandson was reading them and I wanted to see what he found that he liked them so much. They were fun books to read. |

| If your 13 or older read the Night Angel Trilogy. Its so freaking amazing. But its a little old for people below that. But its the best series I've ever read, I showed it to my cousin and some of my friends, and they loved them. They are freaking awesome.
The Night Angel Trilogy by Brent Weeks. #1: Way of Shadows #2: Shadows Edge #3: Beyond the Shadows |
