Spriral by Koji Suzuki aka Writer of The Ring.
A lot! A lot! A lot! Better than the movies. More twists. Harder to guess what's going to happen.

My choice for book of the Week is James Herbert's Portent. If you haven't gotten a chance to read it, you should. It is an amazingly well written book, and has quite an interesting message in it.

The Virgin Suicides by Jeffery Eugenides.
This book is from the point of view of one of a group of boys who were infatuated with the five doomed sisters. In the book he is looking back over the events that lead up and surronded the suicides. The book is chalked full of description dispearsed in a way not to bog down the reader but to excite them. I can't say if it is much like the movie that made after it since I havn't seen it since I was a but a young, oblivious teen girl. I'm also rather bad at descriptions... I think it has something to do with my jumpy train of thought.

Dragons of an Autumn Twilight. It is the first book in the Dragonlance series. And with the rate I've been reading lately, it'll be the book of the month...

I once had to read this book along side another book to compare the two, it was called The Handmaid's Tale, by Margaret Atwood. I think you should read it if you liked 1984 3nodding Also I think The Handmaid's Tale should be the book of the week.

The Tale of Murasaki by Liza Dalby. I'm about halfway through it. Murasaki is considered the author of the world's first novel, The Tale of Genji. The Tale of Murasaki is a fictional account of her life and inspirations for writing Genji.

I read that once for school. It was okay, but nothing worth cheering about. . .

Right now I'm reading The Curious Incedent of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon and so far it has been great.

Watership Down by Richard Adams. I was his first novel, and it was his best. Its an exciting tale from the point of view of rabbits just trying to survive.
