The best book I read recently was probably A Walk To Remember by Nicholas Sparks. It's a really bittersweet book. I found it lying somewhere on the street to the library (but it's ont a library book).

Anyway, how about you guys? I'm really interested in what you have to say :O

Anthem (not a link, just underlined) by Ayn Rand.

It's a nice book that slams collectivism.

Me being 13, the books I read you've probably never heard of but...

Artemis Fowl: Opal Deception by Eoin Colfer
The fourth book in the Artemis Fowl series.

Note: Underlined, not a link.

I've seen the movie A Walk To Remeber, and I really liked it. I heard the book was better (most books are better than the movie, IMO), so I'll have to read it some time (if we're talking about the same thing).

I read 1984, and Brave New World, recently. Both were excellent books. I don't really read all that much, though.

Old book but "Eye of the Needle".

Basically it's a big story with 3 "sub-story" that you see the connection at the end.

1/3 of the book is good because it is a badass man that litterally owns everyone. Really.
the rest is crap.

Snow Crash, by Neal Stephenson, is an incredible book. Fight Club and Choke, by Chuck Palahuinik (sp?), are also really excellent. I've started reading Steppenwolf, by Herman Hesse, and it's really good, but I havn't finished it yet.

For the Sci fi crowd read Ender's game. And Dune is one of the best books ever written. If you like Sci fi, it's a must read.

And yet you can form a cohesive sentence. The chances of you creating that combonation of letters randomly (if you use only alphanumeric with two cases and the characters ' " . , / ! ? [space] and \) are

(52[from the uppercase and lowercase letters]10[numbers]+9[allowed symbols])^12
which is 71^12.

The odds are one to ((71^12)-1).
