i like reading books too
I have read a veary tuching story this mounthi was PUSH by:Saphair this is a vary intence book and show what some childen in this world have to go throw every day the book is not for every one but if you can handle it i would read it.
I LOVE to read too!!! I am reading (actually, re-reading) "Alas Babylon". It is very easy to get in to... when I stop reading it I have to remind myself that I am in the real world and the events in the book are not really happening (it's about what life would be like if the Russians actually attacked us with nuclear weapons during the cold war.)
Books are really cool. When your reading, its like a little tv in your head and you can explore thousands of places without leaving your home.
I'm reading The Simarillion too! I like it very well so far!
Currently, I am too busy at school to do any personal reading, but a couple of my all time favorites are Thomasina by Paul Gallico and The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield.
