This is the perfect weather to relax with a great book. And I am not talking about the ones with pictures! LOL
Any recommendations on a good book to read? Quotes or short reviews will be welcomed. Here is an extract from a great book:
"And, sure enough, the day afterwards I got out of bed and went for a job interview with a recruitment agency called Alfa and told them they would have to be idiots not to employ me. And I know how I was able to say that to them with such unshakeable self-assurance. Because there is nothing that makes a man grow beyond his own stature than a woman telling him she loves him. And however much she might have lied to him, there will always be a part of him that is grateful to her for this, and that will harbour some love for her.
- Headhunters; Jo Nesbo

"They were involved in that awkward procedure of getting to unknow each other' ;)

Brilliant! Such a good quote!

If you are a child of the 80's - or actually even if not it's still a great read - Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. It's a little bit like the Da Vinci Code meets The Matrix. Great read!

Im enjoying the Dalai Lama's the secret to happiness at the moment.... as well as Robbie Warren's Dancing Through the Fire ... but htey are both non fiction.....

If you want something a little quirky, off-the-wall and batshit crazy FUN, I'd definitely go for 'Invisible Monsters' by Chuck Palahniuk. The same dude who wrote 'Fight Club'. FANTASTIC book!! It's dark, but since it's really satire it's also freaking hilarious!!

"Fuck me. I'm so tired of being me. Me beautiful. Me ugly. Blonde. Brunette. A million fucking fashion makeovers that only leave me trapped being me.
Who I was before the accident is just a story now. Everything before now, before now, before now, is just a story I carry around. I guess that would apply to anybody in the world. What I need is a new story about who I am. What I need to do is fuck up so bad I can't save myself."

Wow. Awesome extract! Now I cant wait to read my first Chuck Palahniuk!
