I need to write a review essay on two books on the same subject for history class. I want to write on the great depression, and I wondering if anyone had any suggestions as far as good books were concerned. Ideally, I would like to read two books with opposing views or juxtapositioning positions on certain factors. Any help would appreciated.

Andrew Marr’s making of modern Britain is really good and I’m reading it for history. It has some humour in it which is also good as well as facts. If that’s not really the kind of book you’re looking for there’s Anne Frank’s diary of course

She wants me to read some books by Lee Strobel and Norman Geisler. For each book I read, though, I’m allowed to ask her to read a book from the atheist point of view. Which ones should I recommend?

And don’t suggest science books or anything like that, because she already knows that stuff. Some of it better than I do.

The god delusion by Richard Dawkins, and God is not great by Christopher Hitchens

So for my English class we have to choose our own book and read it. I need some good book suggestions. I don’t like girly, girly novels. I can deal with a little romance as long as it is not like kiss kiss all throughout the book. The book needs to be long, not as long as Harry Potter books, but longer than a kids book. It’s for an 8th grader. What are some intriguing books that you just loved to read?

The Hunger Games, although that may be a little mature for you? I think it’s aimed at 14 – 17 year olds though also City of Bones falls into this category – both are excellent though!

Ender’s Game
The Giver
Gathering Blue
Walk Two Moons
One of Those Hideous Books Where The Mother Dies ~ make sure you teacher will accept it, it’s written in poetry style, so has low word count
Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson

All of these were really good, I read them (except Hunger Games and City of Bones) between 6th and 9th grade

I want a really interesting book. Similar books like Sarah Dessens, Mitchel Albom, Nicholas Sparks, Jodi Picoult, etc. NOT the twilight Saga or anything similar to that.
Non-fiction or fiction books please that are really good..
No fantasy book or series please.

Thank you!

I like to write books but i would like to start writing them in a real software. What do you use?

If you already have Microsoft Word, that will serve your needs. If you don’t, there’s no need to pay for it. There are plenty of good free alternatives. I use OpenOffice (free download from www.openoffice.org).

I wouldn’t bother with any of the programs that claim to help you write a novel. They tend to assume there’s One True Way to write a novel – fine if that fits with how you write, but frustrating if it doesn’t.

Hi, I want to be a model. I am 5′7, living in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Are there any books on the internet on how to pose as a male model? I have read books like photographers guide, but I need a book aimed at the novice beginner models, to learn techniques of posing.

I like suspensful books, and I hated the beaconstreet girls, and most books by meg cabot. I loved the maximum ride series. I am not allowed to read books about vampires and my parents would prefer that I didn’t read books about ghosts, but they let me. Any suggestions?

Good for your parents–all the vampire books are super overrated.

Howl’s Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones
Sarah Dessen novels, especially This Lullaby, Just Listen, and The Truth About Forever
the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling
Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine
The Two Princesses of Bamarre by Gail Carson Levine
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte’s got a bit of everything in it–mystery, romance, suspense–in my opinion it’s the greatest book ever.
Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro–a sci-fi drama, and one of the most beautiful and depressing books you will ever read!
The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle by Avi

If you like suspenseful stories, try Edgar Allen Poe. "The Telltale Heart," "The Black Cat," and "The Masque of the Red Death" are among his most famous.
I know James Patterson also writes mystery novels as well as the Max Ride books. I haven’t read any of them, but I hear they’re good.

My friend was telling me that there were a series of books that the color on the cover told you what the book was about. Like red means rape, or silver means cutting, and black means depression. I wanna know what those books are called. Thanks.

are you talking about the books by Ellen Hopkins? They’re written in poem like form. There’s:
Crank (black-drugs), Glass (purple-drugs… it’s the second book following Crank), Impulse (red-suicide), Burned (white-rape), Identical (silver-also rape type i think), Fallout (yellow/gold -third book after Crank and Glass), Tricks (red -haven’t red this one yet) and I think one or two more.

i’m not sure if these are what you’re talking about, but even if they aren’t you should check them out they’re pretty good in my opinion.

Any books on how to start a brokerage and agency business?
Any popular books out there on how to start a brokerage business, or how to start an agency business? I am not talking about mortgage brokerage, or securities brokerage, rather general brokerage and or agency How-tos.
Also,
is there any other books specialising on How to start brokerage business of goods and services?

Will this help?
