I am going to try to finish the Stephenie Meyer Trilogy - Twilight, Eclipse and New Moon, in time for the 4th book in the series call Breaking Dawn. Stephenie Meyer has hit the book industry with a storm. Time magazine has called her the next JK Rowling and she was also one Time's 100 most influential people in the world. Strongly recommend avid readers to make this series their top reading choice this summer. Nusrat

I have read two great books so far. One of the books is called Beyond Reach a.k.a Skin Privilege By Karin Slaughter. It's a sequel, and by far the best I have read. Kept me hooked up till the end, and I'm still looking forward for the next sequel! Another book that's been a great read is Ties that Bind by Philip Margolin. This writer is a genius. He's just so good at what he writes. He keeps you holding your breath, and wanting to know more. Both books are thrillers.

I am reading now the book "emotional intelligence" by daniel coleman. it appeals to me reading this kind of book to deepen my knowledge how one's emotions affect one person's life one way or another. it gives me an insight how are we goin to handle ourself if we are caught in situation when we are not emotinally ready to face the circumstances. this is the reason why a lot of people are depressed, easily throw tantrums and behave irrationally becoz they are very poor in handling thier emotions. i myself, i would like to recommend this book as it will expand your point of view with people around you and you would know how to handle in subtle way if behave the way you dont want them to be.. goodluck guys, continue learning by reading books that will expand your horizon emotionally, mentally and physically.
