Just finished The Pilgrimage by Paulo Coelho today...it was aight..his other stuff is better..about to start on a book tomorrow I bought last week..A Labyrinth of Kingdoms about a real expedition thru Islamic Africa in 1840..
I haven't read that, but The Alchemist was a nice little book.

That sounds interesting...let me know how it is. Have you read any of Ayaan Hirsi Ali's novels? Check out Infidel...it's one of my favourite books. So well written and she's such an inspiring female.

Omg Hosseini has a new book???? I am in LOVE with a thousand splendid suns. Amazon, here I come! Do you like it so far?

It's interesting you started this. I actually started a book list today that I can refer to and add to because I always forget when I say I'm gonna read something.

Naw I haven't read those..the Alchemist is one of my faves..the pilgrimage was his first book and it was alot like the Alchemist by pursuing your dreams..but this dealt with Christianity while the alchemist dealt with Islam..have you read Shantaram?

He does. A Thousand Splendid Suns was so good. I loved The Kite Runner and then Suns even MORE. This one is a compilation of short stories that connect in the end. I haven't started it yet...but need to get on it cause these books aren't going to read themselves lol

Look up Infidel! It's such an amazing novel - I recommend it to everyone I know.
