Diana, if you read this, one more please.

Answer 5

The best "book" I've ever read has been Bleach(it's a series too!)
It's a graphic novel, containing the life of a strange teenager who can see "ghosts". Long story short, he has to save those who have died, bring them to heaven, and fight the hollows(those who have fallen to the darkened side of life) and bring THOSE souls into heaven.
It's a great book if you're new to the whole comic-ish stuff...(I've read plenty of normal books, but this one, truly tops them all, in any category)

As for normal books, I'd suggest Animal Farm, it's not really my FAVORITE, but it's a really interesting book.

Answer 6

The best book I ever read was "Twilight" by Stephanie Meyer. It was about a regular human girl named Bella who meets Edward Cullen, and vampire, and falls deeply in love. Edward does love Bella, but he`s afraid he might hurt her and accidentally kill her. Plus, there are boys who have crushes on Bella, and other problems that can hurt Bella and Edward`s relationship.
It`s the most beautiful book ever, and there`s 2 sequels along with it..which I`m looking forward to buying from Barnes & Nobles!
