Do you actually even understand those books Cuddowls? Additionally that looks exactly like a reading list I had many years ago. Once again I can't take you seriously.

Catcher in the Rye is overrated, just saying.

Also, kama sutra is really ****ed up. You'd think it was about sex, right? Nope, it's more like reading how to summon Satan. I was surprised, and relieved, to find out that no position involved animal sacrifices though.

Nah, I dunno, it was just a little boring to me..
"Blizzard spoke thus; Thou shalt not BM. And the players replied Nay, I shall Play my hand with Lethal already on the board. And so Blizzard sent unto them this Brawl of Yogg, As a lesson for their sins of Pride and Greed, for he is the Prophet of Madness and RNG. On that day, the tavern descended into an era of chaos and darkness, until the weekend passed and everyone forgot all about it. Amen. Book of SMOrc, Verse 20, Chapter 4." - Feam T

I quite enjoyed Socrate's Apology. Extremely hard to read, but damn is it worth it. It'll change your view on the world, I can guarantee it.

I couln't say what THE best book is, but the best trilogy I've ever read, and will probably ever read, is the Chaos Walking Trilogy.

1- The Knife of Never Letting Go
2- The Ask and the Answer
3- Monsters of Men

This trilogy is nothing but a perfect masterpiece. I recommend it to everyone. 10/10 for me.

I also extremely loved the Spook's Adventur ( I think this is the name in english. I never found those books in their original language, english. I only read it in french).

Everything is so well explained and described, it's crazy. While reading The Spook's Adventure, you literally feel yourself enter their world and you feel like you're living the adventure with the characters. Also a 10/10 for me. I recommend it to anyone.

EDIT : It's not the Spook's Adventure, but The Wardstone Chronicles. In french, the title is L'Épopé de l' Épouvanteur. Or, if I translate word by word, it would be Spook's Adventure. Translation epic fail!

+rep me and you'll get good karma, wich means you won't be reincarnated into a rock! Isn't that awesome?

But yes this idea has been discussed more than Pam Anderson's tits in a plastic surgeons office.

Well then Cuddowls, tell me about them. I want a 5 page paper on each book giving me YOUR analysis of what each book is about. Keep in mind I will not accept plagiarism. You have until Sunday evening around let's say 5:00 PM EST.
