which is the best book u ever read?

Answer 1

The best book Ive ever read would have to be "JUNKY" by William S. Burroughs. The beat writer was WAY ahead of the times when he wrote it and it introduced the world to his famous "Cut-up" style of writing.

Answer 2

Pride and Prejudice by: Jane Austin. I have read it twice and watched both movies. I like the one best that Colin Firth plays the part of Mr. Darcey. I have watched it twice. It is about 4 hours long. The new version of the movie can't compare with the old one. I wouldn't recommend it.

I also like the Scarlet Letter by: Nathaniel Hawthorne. Be sure to read the book before you see the movie.

Keeper of the Bee's is very good by: Sue Monk Kidd.

I'm 26 pages into her book The mermaid Chair. I think it will be good too.

Portrait Of A Young Man Drowning by Charles Perry

Answer 4

Count of Montecristo by Alexander Dumas.The hero is Edmond Dantés, a young French sailor who, falsely accused of treason, is arrested on his wedding day and imprisoned in the island fortress of Château d'If. After staging a dramatic escape he sets out to discover the fabulous treasure of Monte Cristo and catch up with his enemies. A novel of enormous tension and excitement, Monte Cristo is also a tale of obsession and revenge, with Dantés, believing himself to be an `Angel of Providence', pursuing his vengeance to the bitter end before realizing that he himself is a victim of fate.The author did a great job describing the emotions of the prisoner.Disbelief,denial,self pity,madness,apathy and finally hope.For God's sake don't see any of the movies based on the book.They don't do justice to the book.

Dresden file book series by Jim Butcher.There are 8 books in the series beginning with stormfront.It narrates the story of Harry Dresden,chicago's only professional wizard who works as a detective.He stands between the general population who is ignorant about the supernatural world and the monsters - vampires,werewolves,fallen angels,fey.He is aided by Bob,a talking skull.Karrin Murphy-a police officer and Thomas-a white court vampire.

Savage and Ascension by Kelley Armstrong.Both are available free from the author's website.They tell the story of Clayton,how he was made a werewolf,how Jeremy rescued the feral child wolf and earned Clayton's undying gratitude,and how Clayton became someone to reckon with in his Pack.Told in 1st person from Clayton's view,it is poignant and touching at times and humorous.We understand how his childhood influenced his later life.

Scaramouche by Rafael Sabatini.When his best friend, a young clergyman, is killed in a mockery of a duel by an arrogant noble, just to quiet his eloquent expressions of democratic ideals, Andre-Louis Moreau vows revenge. From that point, through meteoric careers as a consummate actor and scenario writer, then as a fencing master, and finally a politician, the brilliant Moreau keeps thwarting the aims of the aristocratic Marquis de la Tour d'Azyr. However, the nobleman causes pain to Moreau as well, and the time must come when the two will meet to settle their enmity once and for all. You are not likely to guess how their confrontation finally turns out. Set against the backdrop of the French Revolution, this swashbuckling novel is exciting throughout, and it presents one of the most dashing heroes in fiction, a man who can fight equally well with his mind, his mouth, his pen, and his sword, a man who stirs up events wherever he goes.

Answer 5

Difficult to mark a single book as the best, because, there will be many contenders.
However, if you are asking, here's my book:
Fiction: Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy by Douglas Adams
Non-Fiction: A brief history of time by Stephen Hawking

Answer 6

Contrary to what a lot of people think, Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien is absolutely amazing. It shows incredible foresight. And it has just about every theme, everything that's wrong with the world packed into one massive trilogy (ex. repetitive actions of history in general repeating in a more destructive cycle). It's the foundation of fantasy writing actually and it's amazing how everything was incorporated.
