I like "The Four Agreements" toltec wisdom book,
but I also like Vampire stories,
Christopher Pike's, The Last Vampire had a COMPLETELY different twist on the sterio typical vampire.
Another good one is called Kissing Doorknobs, I forgot the author, but it's a book about obsesive compulsive disorder. It's half fiction, half true.
The story itself is fiction, but all the facts about the disorder is true. Good books.
Very Good books, any you would recommend?

The trials of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever by Stephen Donaldson beacuse even though I have read it at least 15 times I can always gain a new perspective from it the detail and charactarization is that good

My favorite non-fiction books:
God Delusion by Dawkins
Freakonomics by Steven Levitt
Stiff by Mary Roach
A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson
Moral Minds by Hauser
The Truth (With Jokes) by Al Franken
Also, if you have the time, The World is Flat is very, very interesting. I can't remember the author off the top of my head, but I really enjoyed that book.

Bag of Bones by Stephen King. It is a scary, adventureous, mysterious, and loving book all at the same time. The only thing I didn't like is that Maddie died in the end.

Different Seasons by Stephen King. I read in in high school and thought all 4 stories would be good movies. Three of them have since been made into movies, to my surprise.

Night by Elie Wiesel!!!!
It totally changed my entire views on The Holocaust, and how badly the Jews were treated. If you've not heard of it, it's like a memoir of the Holocaust survivor, Elie Wiesel, and what his life was like living in a concentration camp.
The end of it was SO sad, I ⥠this book!!!

John Rewald - The History of Impressionism
If you would like to know something more about that period, that's the thing. It reads like a novel...
