1Outsiders 2Rumble Fish-Highly Reccomended by me 3Crazy Horse Electric Games-Pimp book and great characters. 4Sign of the Beaver All of these books have been great to read, and meant a lot to me. They are all about the life in the 80's...Teen life, and its the time period I wish I could have grown up in. I love rock and roll so much, but I bank on rap as my favorite. I'd loved to have been a teen in the 80's...No guns, just fists. The third one is the best of all. Its about a handycap kid running away to Cali, and he gets into fights, and lives with a pimp who saves his life...He changes, and so does the pimp...Kid learns to walk on his own time. Great book...

Yeah I read loads of books that have had effects on my life. The last book that really got me was called 'The Celestine Prophecy'. Man that had some mad concepts in it. Its a great story set in Peru. It quickly gets crazy talking bout seeing the energies emanating from objects n shit. Now this ain't really too hard to explain: the geezer has obviously got himself some wicked mushies and brewed them up. Fair play! But the book also talks bout coincidencies. Now this is the crazy shit cos you never know how far removed it is from life. You know the feeling of knowing who's on the phone before you answer it (this is pre-mobile kids!), or being in the right place at the right time? Some cats would say its paranoia but I wouldn't having read this book. Its some weird shit!

Roots -- This book had a very profound affect on me. It was very sad & hurtful, but at the same time it was uplifting & gave me a since of pride & stregnth. Dusky Sally --The True Story of Thomas Jefferson & Sally Hemings --This book was very interesting and gave me some insight into Thomas Jefferson and his inner conflict. My opinion of him changed a great deal, but it's also upsetting to see that part of his family today still deny Sally & her family or should I say the other side of Thomas Jeffersons family? I have read 3 of the books in the "Left Behind Series" These books are about end time phrophesies & possible scenario of the time of the Anti-Christ. --These books make you think, especially if you believe in The Father, The Son & The Holy Ghost. Very entertaining as well. I read alot, but these came to mind right away.

Here's some of the books I have liked: 1. 1984-This was a very creative and groundbreaking book. It really makes you think. 2. Searching for Bobby Fischer-THis is a touching story about the intricacies of a board game and a father-son relationship. I highly recommend it. 3. Rock This-I know. I know. But I really liked this book. I thought it was a extremley halarious effort by Chris Rock. The funniest man in america!!! 4. Oliver Twist-Man, Dicken's characters really do suffer. Go pick up this classic if u havent already done so. This is a classic story about rich and poor. I enjoy reading too. PEACE OUT.

Probably the best book ive read,well definately one of the best,is A Child Called It by Dave Pelzer.Its the first in a trilogy of books by him...and basically its about how he used to get badly beaten by his mother and how he managed to escape.Its extremely emotional though...anybody else read this book?

The best book i have read is by pastor mason bertha better known as ma$e (please dont hate me) he talks about how he didn't want to get caught up in all the killings and shit happening in the rap game and he gets so scared that he is on the verge on suicide and then he turns to god to help him through it all. A really great book!
