I realise that there's probably already a discussion 'bout this but i'm new to this website as from today and don't really know how to find my way around here yet, and - I need some advice on what i should read next. There are probably more of you who'd also like som suggestions on good books, and people who are reading -or just finished- a really good book they'd like to share with others.
So please, send in your suggestions, or- you can leave a comment telling what kind of book you'd like to read and hopefully get an answer of a book that suits you! :3

Permalink Reply by Allison Adams on August 2, 2012 at 3:19pm Hey, I just googled it - is this the one you're talking about? It sounds kinda interesting, what was it like to read? Would love to read more nonfiction in general and this seems like a pretty interesting start.
