The Twilight Saga and Harry Potter
- Harry potter is a cleverly writtnen series, I read it when i was eleven and I was obsessed with it and fascinated by it, but then I found out about Twilight and read it and I'm so grateful to it because it sort of matured my emotions and feeling the way Harry Potter (unfortunately) couldn've but didn't. Though I still like Harry Potter more than Twilight, but Harry took a very big portion of my obsessive thoughts for too long, it's Twilight's time! But Harry will always be the Minister of Magic, so will always be Bella the most beautiful vampire of all time, so will always be Bella and Edward the best couple of all time, so will always be Ron and Hermione the most bickering couple of all time!

Atonement by Ian McEwan
- Not just one of the best books in the last decade, but perhaps one of the finest novels in the last l00 years. Ian McEwan is among a handful of the greatest living writers.

Do Clones Have Souls
- Do Clones Have Souls", is a book that is short and entertaining enough for the masses and evolved enough for the astute reader. Do Clones Have Souls is a work of fiction rich in political discourse. The issues of our time are addressed using a group that is universally despised. They are spurned by the church who call thier existence an abomination.The Supreme rules that they have no rights. The media instead of being a catalyst for their freedom, exploit them for ratings. The Clones are used as soldiers in three wars,for organ transplants,as servants and sex slaves. Blacks, illegal immigrants, Gays and the poor see no relationship between their issues and those of Clones. The Clones form a small resistance movement and are immediately labeled terrorists.... The central characters are amazing and the plot twists are fasinating and unexpected.
