 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

 Read it and weep. It's a great "trilogy" of, what was it, five books?

Er, was it "Dreamcatcher", by Stephen King?

 I remember that one was very similar to "IT", but I don't recall which Eggman was in. Meh.

I read this trilogy about one year ago: A Jar of Dreams, The Best Bad Thing, and The Happiest Ending. I had to read A Jar of Dreams in 5th grade so I decided to read the other two parts because the first one was so good. It's about a Japaneese girl the lived in the USA in 1935. It's really good. Please read it.

It''s ah me marioguy!

Books? Uuuh, well, train a model railroading books for sure. Lamborghini, Porsche, Mclaren, BMW, Aston Martin, Ferrari, Corvette, etc. They made a new Bugatti that can top 252MPH!!!

As for the long books:

A Time to Kill, America, Life is Funny, etc.

Lord of the Rings is good I'm about 1/5 of the way through Return of the King.
Another book I liked is another Stephen King book called Pet Semetary.(I'll start suggesting non-Stephen King books in my next post)

I thought Lirael and Abhorsen were pretty good. They're Fantasy books, of course.

I think Jurrasic Park is one of the best books if have ever read, I haven't read the other two.

Timeline is my favorite Michael Crichton book.  All but the last paragraph of the intro is true.  Go quantum physics!

Today we can send information through a solid object faster than the speed of light.  We can also teleport quantum particles across great distances.  Star Trek here we come!

My favorite book is Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card.  It's so cool!  Has anyone else read it?
