Recommend me a book
    #14315172 - 04/19/11 12:47 AM (12 years, 9 months ago)

I figured I would see if I could find another book that fits my taste. I stole the idea for this thread off someone else. Here are a couple books I like and certain qualities I enjoy in books. Please recommend me a book! :smile:

Currently I am finishing up Water for Elephants.

Books I loved:

Sarah Orne Jewwet's Country of the Pointed Firs.

Harper Lee's To Kill a Mocking Bird.

Herman Hesse's Sidartha.

J.D. Salinger's Catcher and the Rye



What I am looking for is a book with interesting rhetoric and beautiful sentence/paragraph compositions. I am not opposed to the instance of love occurring within a book but I dont want to read a strictly romance based piece. I like dramatic. I like profound. And Like I said I like beautiful words.

What do you have for me?

The Hunger Games trilogy.

I have never bought a book in my life...until I read these.  I went out and bought all three books.  They are fantastic
