oh and "Ender's game" I don't know why I just thought it was a really well done science-fiction-y concept

just to show... The ending of one of the stories that had the greatest impact on me - William Wilson by Edgar Allan Poe

"You have conquered, and I yield. Yet, henceforward art thou also dead--dead to the World, to Heaven and to Hope! In me didst thou exist--and, in my death, see by this image, which is thine own, how utterly thou hast murdered thyself."

what's that about?

Kurt Cobains Journals ~ It gives a insight into the real person behind the music, some people think he was this angst ridden rock star famed for his suicide, however the journals highlighted the thoughts and inner personality, things the majority of stars shy from.

Okay now that you mention there characters Bop,I remember I saw a lot of Johnny in me also because throughout jr high and high school I was shy and quiet just like him so I remember I could really relate to him as well.

i was most like johnny back in elementary school...

the Harry Potter series, "Memoirs of a Geisha" (not sure of author), The Cutler Series by VC Andrews, and what little of the Bible I've read... 🙂

"Memoirs of a Geisha" was written by Arthur Golden...must read for anyone high school or older!

what's "the cutler" series about? sounds like some horror/mystery/action kind of book...

The Cutler Series is about a girl (Dawn) who finds out she was kidnapped, and she falls in love w/her "brother" and blah blah blah...lol. One of the books is about her daughter's point of view and another of the books is from Dawn's evil grandmothers' point of view at a younger age...there are a total of 5 books. I dont know the names of all of them right now...good books, but major drama. Not sure if guys would like it.

don't worry, i'm not a guy. (check my pro if you don't belive me! 😆) hmm...falls in love with her bro...WHAT?! 😱 😆

The Cutler Series is definatly like a Jerry Springer episode on steroids....lol...but even though I don't like Jerry Springer, I absolutly love The Cutler Series!

And he's not her real brother...she was kidnapped.

Probably The Catcher in the Rye and The Madolescents, and also a book I read recently - The Virgina Monologues! Every woman will understand it, and every man should be made to read it!

The Deltora book series.

Dragonlance, Harry potter, Lord of the rings, Dark angel, and gone with the wind.

Harry Potter, Chronicles of Narnia, Pride and Prejudice, and To Kill a Mockingbird...those have over time shaped me just a lil bit.

HArry Potter series

The Chronicles of Narnia. Actually, only one book stands out for me other than the rest: The Last Battle. I think it's my favorite book in the series. Also LOTR.
