Don't know about favourite but, some fiction favourites:
Anything by Anthony Burgess
Anything by PG Wodehouse - funny, light classics
The Unconsoled by Kazuo Ishiguro
The Yawning Heights by Aleksandr Zinoviev - got halfway through several times and then eventually pushed on, big masterpiece on the Communist workforce
Vile Bodies by Evelyn Waugh - made into a movie, "Bright Young Things", that I haven't seen
I don't read enough. Probably less than anyone here including Oldham Dude.

After careful consideration I think mine is the Count of Monte Cristo - somebody else mentioned it in the past so I bought a copy of the unabridged version and WOW what a book.

I could describe my accident but last time I did in gruesome detail on MPAC chat everyone left the chat room, to seek sanction under his or her bed covers.
[deleted bit] I would think about giving her
the new Mercedes Maybach 57 S-Class Saloon 6.0 litre V12 Engine.
That car is amongst automobiles as she is amongst women.

should that be deleted?

BOOOKS,
I used to love the Babysitter series. The horror book, they had the babysitter 1, 2, 3 and 4. Wicked books.
Dear beloved Son by Imam Ghazali is a WICKED BOOK.
Shaykh Hamza Yusuf's, interpretaion of Imam Mawlid's poem, purification of the heart is a decent enough book, aint finished it yet tho.
Ive got "Sirr Al-Asrar" aka "Secret of Secrets" laying on my "bookshelf". Is it as good as people say it is? I might give it a read.

a very good read indeed!! i recommend it to every1 it is kinda based on a real story as this kind of stuff happens in villages in pakistan. Its in a lot of detail aswell and the way she describes the way people are living their everyday lives, u can just imagine it she uses urdu words in the book aswell when people are talking and when events are taking place. it takes u back as if u are there. and obviously being written by a women it clearly shows a understanding of a womans emotions. i am currently reading the sequel "typhoon" and iam just getting into it, but its not as good as the first.
and obviously being written by a women it clearly shows a understanding of a womans emotions. .
i agree
i got a detailed review of that book.
apparently it really does make u understand how a women thinks-and behaves under pressure
married to the quran-how tribal
but at least the book had an happy ending
men who wish to understand women shud read that book :roll:
i cant wait till my book arrives
Submitted by Saadia Khan on 15 February, 2006 - 19:50 #59
yes totally agree men have a good read and try to relate.
tribal isnt the word lol(actually it is ) lol but i mean when i first heard it i cudnt belive my ears i was told then i went out and bought it, u wont be able to put it down.
Salaam,

Caution
How could you change a normal everyday thing in to a horror story?
By making special effects or something! :?

The amount of blood I lost is enough to decertify Screen to a PG.
And I can assure you my accident isn’t a everyday think.
Yes that was a nice horror story....
no need to carry on.... im already feeling uneasy
do tell.....
The Lover is ever drunk with love;
He is free, he is mad,
He dances with ecstasy and delight.
Caught by our own thoughts,
We worry about every little thing,
But once we get drunk on that love,
Whatever will be, will be.

I just finished reading the biography of the Rabia Basri (ra) and other Sufi women in Islam. It was a fantastic book.
I’m still getting though Mawalana Rumi’s Mathanwi...I only understand about 70% of his words. But what I DO understand is so deep.
should that be deleted?
