== I want to read--  == Uglies series- read them - a good story. The looking glass wars Twilight series The last Maximum ride book- a disappointment after the 3 previous books. Lawn boy- nothing special.


 My favourite books
 * Ender's Game || Orson Scott Card || Series || I think this is maybe the best book written- its a fantasy sci-fi set initially on Earth and I found it an enthralling read. As with all good books it made me think. Its about lots of things, politics, truth, people's rights and responsibilities, and leadership. Its the first in a series of four but I think the next three might be best for older than primary age to read, the story gets more complex. ||  ||   ||
 * Northern Lights || Philip Pullman || Series || Clare told me to read this series (years ago)- I should have listened to her! ||  ||   ||
 * Mortal Engines || Philip Reeves || Series ||  ||   ||   ||
 * The Giver || Lois Lowry ||  || Its one of those books that really makes me wonder how I would cope in similar circumstances. ||   ||   ||
 * Cirque du Freak || Darren Shan || Series || I would not have thought, before I read this series, that vampire books would ever appeal to me. This is a great rollicking adventure, its really about good versus bad and friendship and loyalty, and a great great read. ||  ||   ||
 * So Much To Tell You || John Marsden ||  || This is a thin book compared to the ones I usually read but does it ever pack an emotional punch- don't assume you know what someone else's life is like. ||   ||   ||
 * The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas || John Boyle ||  || Wow ||   ||   ||
 * Tomorrow When the War Began || John Marsden || Series ||  ||   ||   ||
 * The Absolutely True Story of a Part-time Indian ||  ||   ||   ||   ||   ||
 * Charlotte's Web || E B White ||  || A truly great read about friendship and loyalty- warning -it makes me cry every time I read it ||   ||   ||
 * Homecoming || Cynthia Voigt || Series ||  ||   ||   ||
 * Harry Potter || J K Rowling || Series ||  ||   ||   ||
 * The Source || James Michener ||  || A huge book- but I remember reading this and finding the background to religions fascinating ||   ||   ||
 * A piece of ground || Elizabeth Laird ||  || A heartbreaking story of what it might be like to live in the middle east ||   ||   ||
 * Burn my heart || Beverley Naidoo ||  || How people can see the same thing completely differently ||   ||
