Book suggestions....warning: I'm Picky?

hmm... Doestoevski, the russian philosopher. I love reading him during the winter. Some of his books include:

-The Idiot (my favorite, very romantic in some parts, I think)

-Notes from Underground

-Crime and Punishment

Albert Camus, only read a ccouple things, but there very very interesting.

-The Plague

-The Stranger

Kay Redfield Jamison

-An Unquiet Mind (memoir about a doctor with bipolar who woud use manic episodes to get through medical school and complete research projects. Very Very romantic with a strong femine lead. One of my favorite books ever and Ive read it three times and still get that "cant put it down, feel every word" out of it

Ann Rynd (I know I didnt spell this right at all)

-The Fountain Head

William Faulkner (amazing at creating characters that are so believable and relatable.)

-A light in August (definitely a strong femine lead as one of the main plot lines is an impregnated teen who leaves in the night to find the father who she believes with all her heart is awaiting her arrival as he earns money to give her the life of her dreams. Romantic and well written)

-The Sound and The Fury A-MAAZING

Henry David Thoreau

-Walden

oooo, and id also suggest looking up some books that are now movies. A lot of really good movies lately have first been amazing books. You could do a lit and film thing and read the books then watch the film. I totally did that a couple years ago after my boyfriend and I broke up. Like slumdog Millionare. also:

-a clockwork orange

-the shawshank redemption (stephen king)

-High Fidelity

-About a Boy

-Where the Red Fern Grows

-Atonement

-THe Road

-Alice in Wonderland

_Age of Innocence

-Choke

If you want to read a great book series, and have alot of time, look into the house of night series, im really into vamps but not twilight like stuff, its too cheesy, but along those lines, in the house of night series theres about 12-13 books out at the min :) its about a girl who is rather unlucky and doesnt really get on well with her mother since she remarried, but shes very close to her granmother, then shes "marked" and has to move into the house of night, a boarding school for all young to-be vampires. Then there are a few evil folk in it and it gets very suprisin lol. :) Its a great read :) also a favourite of mine is the true blood book series, its far better than the show, and obv, gos into alot more detail :) and if your not into vamps at all, try "joan linguard" books, thats the name of the author, she wrote a series called "the kevin and sadie novels" its all about a catholic boy and a protestant girl during the troubles in n.ireland, :)

Have you read the Hunger Games? Has some drama, romance and a strong female lead. It also has a psychological factor to it. The whole series would be good to read. I didn't think I would like it and its my favorite series! I am reading it for the 4th time now!
