Ive just finished reading a book called 'Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance'. What a book, its is absoulutly amazing suck an insight into out exsistance and our perception of reality. I thouroughly recomend that everyone should read this book. It will change how you think. Anyone else read this book? Or has anyone here read a book that they thought was truly awesome?
Any thoughts of other recomendations would be cool

Holy crap this book is amazing, it apeals to teenagers, and its about this kid who is obsessed with sex. I love the book, and definatley suggest buying it or renting it.

ECFS, i was only kidding. ive read prolly three quarters of those, and i agree, it helps to have a broad reading base when you get to school.

nah, that wasnt a retort, but i could see how the list could be taken that way, not too many modern authors...then again, in today's english classroom there would be far more female writers...gotta be pc and all
