Sooo I recently discovered that I really liked to read. I always thought reading was gay until I actually started reading books that interest me.

So now im asking if some of you might know some good books I can read. Would be nice if it weren't some 23409384334444444443 pages long love novel of a desperate housewife thanks!

oh I also meant real books and not mangas/comics.

Clockwork orange, does it differ a lot from the movie?

just the ending I think
but even if you've already seen the movie the book is very interesting to read, because you need to sort of learn the language the author creates
you'll be slapped in the litso for the first few pages but then it'll be real horrorshow

a distant future where firemen burn books, violence is twice as common, and everyone is glued to the TV.

Invisible Man has nothing to do with the movie The Invisible Man, does it?

i loved The Kite Runner and Brave New World. They're both incredible
Jane Eyre is a a beautiful love story, but it was written in the 1800's so the english is difficult to read

no, its an extremely profound look at racism and society


A sequel was being made by the author, but about halfway through, his apartment caught fire and the manuscript was lost.  And he never finished his book before he died.

Thats a good one.  In fact Of Mice and Men is starting to jog my memory, there\\\'s some more books but I cant remember right now.

The Good Earth is a nice read
