EPTIf you have any poker books, college prep books, or other you'd like to recommend, go ahead. Right now I'm prospecting Hitchhiker's guide to the universe, maybe slaughterhouse 5 becuase I"ve heard a lot about that, but this is where you come in - suggest away -.-

1984 Animal Farm Lord of the Flies The Glass Menagerie Farenheit 451 Brave New World The Great Gatsby You've probably read most of them, so here are a couple of new books I'd recommend: Life of Pi The Curious Incident of a Dog in the Nighttime (I think that's the title) Bringing Down the House | ||

Chuck Palahniuk writes some excellent books. If you've seen "Fight Club," he wrote the book which is at least a good as the movie. Another excellent book by him is "Choke." If you liked the movie "Fight Club," you should love his books. Neal Stephenson has very good books also. "Snow Crash" is a gritty, sexalicious cyberpunk thriller set in the near future. "The Diamond Age" is also pretty good book, but not quite as good as "Snow Crash." | ||
