whoo rereading books

I have just realised that I have had a suddeng urge to reread some of my old books.

I very recently reread L'Engle's "A Wind in the Door", part of her famous time quartet (go wiki it). It is probably my most favourite book in the whole series. The concepts introduced are really curious and thought-provoking, despite being rather short, I still hold this book dear ( fun read =D). I recommend reading it lol.

Speaking of "A Wind in the Door", I remember I had a friend (Grace) in primary school, to whom I had recommended the book to. At that point of time, my class had just finished studying A Wrinkle in Time, which is the first in the Time Quartet. But lol she didn't want to buy the book because she thought the front cover was scary :<. Wonder if she's read it yet lol.

Also I am currently rereading Brisingr for no real reason whatsoever, just that I remembered that it was fairly interesting and I hadn't seen it in a while.

If you are a hardcore reader (examples: Isaac, my friend from primary school, my other friend from primary school, my other other friend from primary school, none of whom are Grace, and um, Isaac) I would recommend the Wheel of Time series. The Wheel of Time series is a fantasy series, comprising of 12(!) 600(!)+(!) to 1000(!) page books, of which the 12th is going to come out in three(!) parts in 2009, 2010 and 2011, and they had to split it up otherwise it would be so long(!) as to be unpublishable(!!!) i.e. physically unbindable(!!!!! o:) as it is estimated to be about 1500 (!) pages or about 800,000 (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) words long.

HARDCORE.

I got up to book 9 and then school started and I didn't have time to read it so I dieded.

It is a very nice read, probably the only problem the I have with the book is that somewhere around books 7,8,9 or so it gets a little draggier, kind of sad. Don't expect to be able to tank any one of the books in one sitting. There are 1800+ (!) characters so far in the fictional world, so you might be forgetting stuff quite a bit. (It's still worth it though =D)

If you're not so hardcore go for Ender's game, or Speaker for the Dead, (or the rest of the series) by Orson Scott Card. The second especially has a very nice message to tell. (sssh spoiler)

Have funs!
