Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte is probably my favorite that I've read.
A gothic classic. |

The movie for Looking For Alibrandi is great too. The Sisterhood Of The Travelling Pants Book is better than the movie, in my opinion. Directors/Writers tend to leave a lot out when it comes to basing a movie on a book. The Soccer Coach is hot in the movie, don't you think? I have a PE teacher that looks exactly like him at school. =P |

'Round the Bend,' by Nevil Shute. I finished reading and immediately started re-reading it. I enjoyed it that much. Mind you, i haven't read it since then either. I don't want to spoil the memories  |

I don't read a lot of novels, although in year 11 we had to read Looking for Alibrandi and I quite liked it. The movie was far too incongruent for its own good though. If I hadn't read the book, I don't think I would have been able to comprehend it.  |

I've never been able to get into Alibrandi. I liked 'My Place' and this other book we had to read for school-it was about this girl (i think in Russia) who hides a soldier in her house.
If you havn't read 'The Five People You Meet In Heaven', you should. I forget the author's name, he also wrote 'Tuesday's with Morrie' which is also good. It gives you a real insight as to how old people live and think. |

Author's name is Mitch Albom, (here is quote from book) "Parents rarely let go of their children, so children let go of them. They move away. The moments that used to define them—a mother’s approval, a father’s nod—are covered by moments of their own accomplishments. It is not until much later, as the skin sags and the heart weakens, that children understand; their stories, and all their accomplishments, sit atop the stories of their mothers and fathers, stones upon stones, beneath the waters of their lives." (p. 126) Sad but true, I think! |
