The Word. . . . . . can't remember who the author was, but it's the kinda thing a Dan Brown would'a written. . . . its about a man who conned the whole world and tried ridicule the whole xtian religious setup by writing on a number of ancient scrolls he claimed to be lost/missing, unaccou sections of the Holy Bible in an ancient, almost extinct language that only one man in the entire world could translate! Gripping, mind-blowing stuff I tell ya. . . . if there's anybody out there who knows the book or who's got a copy, i sure would love to read it again. . . holla at me PLZ! 2 Likes |

(1) The book of revelations and (2), Forest of thousand of demons aka 'igbo irun mole' translated by Eminent Professor Wole Soyinka. Because they compares favourably and even more authentic than the darkest of any perfect book. |

Apart from the Bible that will stand the test of time, i like "The Notebook" - Nicholas Sparks - it's a story of love and it's actually based on a true life story. "Redeeming Love" - Francine Rivers - Hosea's Story brought back to life in such a way that anyone can relate 2 it "Things Fall Apart" - Chinua Achebe - an epic "Efuru" - Flora Nwapa - 1 Like |

Ive read a lot of books that I can't really remember all now. But the most touching books I ve read that always affect my life and make me think most times are: No time for tears (I think by Niyi Osundare) Lightling by Danielle Steel With exceptional Regard and respect to the Holy Bible |
Re: The Most Memorable Book You Read by kingsikaz(m): 3:00pm On Feb 01, 2008 |
just a line in the SCRIPTURE and ye are gods, children of the MOST HIGH (Ps 82:6) . and a powerful psycho philosophical book " Letter to Gail " by Paul Twitchel " that calm man who remains unchanged in the face of adversity and pleasure; whom all these does not move is able O SON OF BRATA 2 attain IMMORTALITY" [color=#990000][/color] my guy it's bombing. |
Re: The Most Memorable Book You Read by wanitas(f): 12:53pm On Feb 09, 2008 |

Re: The Most Memorable Book You Read by molola(f): 1:30pm On Feb 12, 2008 |
The most memorable books i have read can not be quantified. i'll just mention those that come to mind. By summers end pamela conti Mark of the lion Triology Francine Rivers Perfect Judith Mc Naught I'll post more later |
Re: The Most Memorable Book You Read by kalmebad(f): 9:31am On Feb 22, 2008 |
Danielle Steel knows how to cut accross the nevers with her writings,her books are always too emotional. U feel ur pulse when at it,sometimes the suspense and imaginations can be killing. Zoya and Malice are one of d bombs I cant also rule out the Chambers by John Grisham ,so memorable, it made me cry 1 Like |

Forgive me, but i cannot narrow it down to one! and i don't think i've even read a tenth of the books that will leave a lasting impression on me, but here goes, Angelique, Marquise of the angels, this book is that BOMB!it's by Serge and Anne Golon Memoirs of a Geisha The Godfather by Mario Puzo, is perfection! Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe, could read it over and over without taking breaks Journey to the centre of the earth, Brilliant! "The Idiot" by Fyodr Dostoyevski, wow Little Women by Louisa May Alcott, words cannot describe! it was the first "serious" book i read A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, too much of a classic to overlook! Then theres this trilogy that breaks my heart,the books are A boy called it The lost boy A man called Dave i swear, you cannot read that and remain the same person. and Maniac McGee, cannot remember who wrote that one, but the way it talks about innocence and racism is just remarkable and another trilogy, the His Dark Matters trilogy The golden compass (this is the new name) The amber spyglass The subtle Knife. that trilogy helped me appreciate the whole fantasy genre and then there's Ted Dekkers "the circle" trilogy. Black, Red and White, and Blink By ted Dekker too I'm sure i've left out a book or two, but all the above, brilliant stuff, brilliant!, i know it looks like a lot o.but they are all dear to me mehn! |
