    A good book

    Right, I never read books but lately i've got the urge to get one. I don't have a clue what is good and what is not so i need a bit of help. I'm not sure what I'd like to read. Something thats not too hard to read otherwise i'd get sick. Not too long but interesting. I'm trying to think what kinda film I like that might be similar in a book.

    I liked the matrix, stuff like 21 grams etc if those films are similar to any books :p

    You can tell I know nowt about books cant you :p

    How about you lick my nuts. If I wanted a magazine I wouldn't have asked for a book would I.

    The reason I want something easy to read and not too long is cos if I find i'm a book person then i'll buy more. Not being too long isnt important, just a small preference.

    I know this is shocking but i have only ever read 1 or 2 books.

    I'd recommend 'Mr Nice' it is Howard Marks' autobiography. Dunno if you've heard of him but he was a oxford educated welsh lad who started dealing dope! Honest, its quality! Howard marks is my hero!

    When I was in Ibiza I read Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy. They were among the best books I have ever read! They're meant to be for kids but they don't come across that way at all. Would definitely recommend them! They're a bit like The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe but with atheist undertones :)

    Demons and Angels & The Da Vinci Code both by Dan Brown - read them in that order aswell.

    The best books ive read for a long time, i couldn't read them fast enough, ive passed them round to all my friends and everyone has enjoyed them, the Da Vinci Code really gives you some stuff to think about!!
