books i recommend

read the original chronicles of narnia.........................and i think everyone should read it once, esp the CS Lewis style of narration is unique, u rarely come across a writer who does not want to waste pages describing scenery but gets to the point immediately.
if u esp want to act sentimental and want to shed loads of tears then do read 'P. S. I lOVE YOU' by cecelia ahren and MY SISTERS KEEPER by jodi picoult
and if u r in need of dosage of complete senseless humor read series of UNDEAD bu mary janice davidson...........................

lastly after many years of contemplation i have concluded that wuthering heights was a over rated book and pride and prejudice is much better....

ewell i personally would rate Lord of the rings above all - above narnia, and much above harry potter,, not much into classics so cant comment on that,, by the way,, if u wanna have a light read, go for chetan bhagat s 3 MISTAKES OF MY LIFE,, his latest flick,, not a great author,, but the story connects very well with people who have spent their lives in ahmedabad,,
