This sucks - I can't remember the last book I read - because I'm all caught up in the Harry Potter books!

 

But my number one must read (for non-fiction) is:

"Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee" - be prepared to get very depressed...

and if you want more American Indian History:

"Black Elk Speaks", and "Lakota Woman".

 

I'm glad someone else read Ishmael. Also The Alchemist, Mary Shelly's Frankenstein, Pride and Prejudice, PG. Wodehouse, and many more...

I have just started reading "The Man Died" by Wole Soyinka. It is autobiographical, about the time that he spent in prison (27 months) without a trial during the Nigerian civil war.

 

1984- always a favourite.

 

i really want to read some of iain banks' books, my brother loves it and tells me that i should read his stuff.

I've been reading a lot lately.....

 

The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy for the 3rd time.....(damn good movie too)

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas - Thompson

Mila 18 - Leon Uris

Right now I'm reading 1984, and next I'm gonna read Walden (with the essay "On Civil Disobediance") and then Catch 22.
