I'm planning on reading The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy pretty soon, my dad absolutely adores it. One of my personal favourites is 'I Am Legend.' After reading the book I can really see how badly the film captures the essence of its source material.
I've too many to say. Most books I read are factual but the last book I read for entertainment purposes was Gulliver's Travels. Fantastic piece of literature.
The best Book I read recently was the Tripod books which has a little to fast of pacing but isn't bad. One of my favorite books However is the first Hitchhikers guide to Galaxy book and like always, the Movie isn't as good as the book, Not by a long shot.
I don't think I read enough that I could give a very good opinion. However, I recently finished reading Things Fall Apart, and it was a pretty good book. However, you have to understand that "gay" only meant "happy" back then.
The Game by Teresa Toten, one of the first books I read when I was a teenager. Another was "The Dark Side of Nowhere" by Neal Shusterman. I forgot the rest of the books I've read.
Here's a short list: The Stand Fight Club Haunted All of the Discworld series Lord of the rings + the hobbit Life Expectancy And then there were none Beowulf Cerebus Books of Blood
" The hitchhikers guide to the galaxy - Douglas Adams On the origin of species - Charles Darwin An odd combination sure.... but two great books. "
not that odd a combination, Adams was openly atheist and admired the work of Darwin, talking about it quite a lot in his non fiction article writing. If you're interested, I would highly suggest "The salmon of Doubt: Hitchhiking the Galaxy one last time" which collects all of his published, and some unpublished, non fiction work. It also has his final incomplete novel in the back half.
The non fction stuff is amazing and covers everything from technology (he has some interesting ideas about where this internet thing will lead us (he died in 2001)) to endangered spieces (where he went to mount kilamanjaro in a rhino suit.)
