Bookworm Enthusiast discussion

Suggest some books you'd like to add to our soon-to-read list!

The Catcher in the Rye! I got it for christmas and haven't read it yet so yeah haha.

The Catcher In The Rye is such a wonderful book! Yes, I had the feeling we had to include Salinger haha. I'm guessing people will suggest John Green!

Hermann Hesse is marvelous. I think we should also consider Demian or Steppenwolf. Actually both. Siddhartha is quite enlightening as well.

Yes, John Green is amazing! I got two of his books for christmas. The other one is How to Kill a Mockingbird :)

Definitely adding To Kill a Mockingbird. Gotta order it though haha. I have all books by John Green except for An Abundance of Katherines. Which ones should we add?

Well I reckon a lot of people would have read The Fault in our Stars by now so what about Looking for Alaska or Paper Towns or both?

Both! Yes, The Fault in Our Stars is very popular right now haha

I did so too! Read it in two days and just because didn't want to eat it up haha

What about War and Peace by Leo Tolstoi? :) It's a really heavy one though

Yep I was thinking about it! it's split in two, though, I have it. So it's just like reading two in a row haha I'm up for it Becci

The Book Thief was an amazing read! Also, I suggest the Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold.

I agree with Rebecca, we should give War and Peace a chance! Also, I've never read any of John Green's works, but I'll definitely add him to my list.

Oh my, Ananda, John Green is AMAZING.

I'd suggest Gone Girl by Gyllian Flynn, as I read it a couple weeks ago, and it was by far one of the best books I have read for a while. John Green is amazing, so something like Will Grayson, Will Grayson could be good too. It isn't as crazily known/read as Looking For Alaska and The Fault in Our Stars but it is really good.

Cassie! I happen to have received it has a Christmas present (Will Grayson, Will Grayson) and am very interested so I'll for sure add it to the list here :)

It may be slightly hard going, like some of Haruki Murakimi's other works, but I suggest 'The Wind-up Bird Chronicle'. It's supposedly really weird but a brilliant read... and that's my kind of thing! Up to the rest of you though?

I've been meaning to read it for a long time now, so I very much like this idea. It's definitely going to our bookshelf!

I'm up for anything although I'd really like to read John Green because sadly I haven't read any of his works! I would also like to read Thirteen Reasons Why.

I think Thirteen Reasons Why would definitely be a great book for discussion!

It is rather unknown but "The elegance of the hedgehog" is a very good book (at least in french).

wow you read in French Hana? That's really impressive I think!

I just read a synopsis of Thirteen reasons why and now I really feel like reading it. I only have to check where I can buy it (sadly it's not available in my University's library)

@Ananda: I messaged you on Skype about a site that ships worldwide for free, so in case you can't get 'Thirteen Reasons Why', that's the perfect place to buy any book. It's very cheap and they're very responsible! I always get refunds if the books don't arrive in time, etc.

@Rebecca
I've started but it's quite hard (though we have to learn it in school).

@Ananda
Thirteen reasons why is astonishing. I read it in like one evening.

I used to learn French in school too but I was really bad at it, I tried to read a book in french once but I gave up after the first sentence I think^^

I read Thirteen reasons why in one evening too, I just couldn't stop, it's really very capturing!

I've heard a lot of great things about that book. I am definitely interested in reading it! (But in English...) :)

Already read that one and it was really amazing! Everybody should read it. (:
