你們看什麼英文書？

程度中上是甚麼哦~~ 給一些你平日看書的例子會好一點...

程度較易的, 內容較童真的: (大人看也可, 因為係我好鍾意既書)
1. Daddy Long Legs (very good romantic story, but mainly targeted at girls)
2. Number the Stars (by Lois Lowry) -- about Jews, and courage
3. Narnia (C. S. Lewis) -- if you don't mind heavy symbolism and Christianity, and like fantasy... i like the last story in particular...
4. holes (louis sachar) -- a children's book. But excellent nevertheless. highly recommended

我喜愛的書:
1. pride & prejudice , jane austen.
2. to kill a mockingbird , harper lee
3. sherlock holmes (all of the series) , sir arthur conan doyle

hit 戲的書:
1. The prestige -- really good!!!
2. The devil wears prada -- relaxing

大人書的話以下幾個作者是我喜歡的:
1. Roald Dahl -- his short stories for adults are VERY witty... my favourite!!
2. Nick Hornby -- funny, relaxing, suitable for all.
3. Robin Hobb -- Fantasy writer... I like fantasy books...
4. Margaret Atwood -- this is a little hard, but her stories are clever. Most famous for "The Blind Assasin", although I like "Alias Grace" better.

For the truly advanced
Toni Morrison... I can't understand her books =.= I read "Beloved" and did not understand...

其實仲有好多... 不過我去訓覺喇... 我會開始睇 the time traveller's wife...

我覺得 amazon.com d recommendations 都幾好架, 亦可以睇下 d 人既 comments

This is the Barnes and Noble link, they have the awrad wining list, you can pick some books that in your level with good writing.

Hope it help.

What types of books do you like to read? Thrillers? Light and funny stuff? Non-fiction?

Some of my personal favorites:
Jane Austen - Pride and Prejudice
Khaled Hosseini - The Kite Runner

Recently I read Nicole Krauss' The History of Love
and I really liked it.



Some children's books which I wouldn't mind re-reading (as a college student)
Roald Dahl's BFG; Matilda; Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Louis Sachar's Holes (as mentioned in the previous post)

If you want to improve your English, I suggest you read newspaper.
Pick a column you like, say sports or politics, and then read that columns every day and by a year's time, you will notice you have learned a lot more than you had expected.

some good newspapers:

The Guardian
The Canberra Times
The New York Times
