Gabys!:
Animal Farm from George Orwell. It's about animals that decide to live like humans but with the difference they try to live like in soviets (I think it was like that).
Paula from Isabel Allende it's a very nice story about the writer's live and how is she living through  the illness of her daughter. It's a very touching story.
The Phantom of the Opera it's a classic! (I can´t remember the name of the author...).

Well, for now this is all.

Shiunu:
Memoirs of a Geisha - It's such an amazing book. Once you start reading it you can't put it down. The plot is so interesting and it makes you feel like your in another world. It's about a young girl who gets sold to a geisha house in the 1930s and learns to become a geisha.

You should really read that one.

KuroPuppy:
The halo book Collection. It's a must have for anyone who likes science fiction and/or have played the game.
