Need a new book :P

[Lozzaa]

I've just finished "boy in the striped pyjamas" and it was awesome. Now i need something else to read *getting back into reading as I ACTUALLY have time to do so!*

So yeah, does anyone have any crime-fiction, fantasy or war-based reccommendations?? :P

I've put this on every book thread but The Book Thief - Markus Zusak - it's really good and it's set during the time of the Holocaust

and Tell No one - Harlan Corben is good too - it's a crime-fiction
and Darkly dreaming dexter - Jeff Lindsay - it's the book of the first series of Dexter

Night by Elie Wiesel is good.
They Cage The Animals At Night
Flowers For Algernon
A Child Called It
The Giver

Those are all good books that I liked.

Have you read Catch-22 by Joseph Heller? It's sorta war related.

And super funny. xD

Winds of War by Herman Wouk- It's some pretty deep stuff, but it's a fascinating look at one family's journey through WWII. The dad is the United States Navy Commander sent to Hitler's Berlin in the spring of 1939 as a naval attaché to the then-neutral American embassy. It also has a love story running throughout. His son works in Italy as an assistant to an art historian and ends up falling for the historian's jewish niece. It's really intense, and it provides a really accurate and true look to the complexities of war.

Like Amy said, The Book Thief by Markus Zusak is the most amazing book i've ever read. It'll have you in tears by the end.

For crime fiction, I'd try anything by Dan Brown or David Baldacci.
Specifically:
Angels and Demons- Dan Brown (AMAZING.)
Digital Fortress- Dan Brown
Deception Point- Dan Brown
The Hour Game- David Baldacci
Split Second- David Baldacci
The Camel Club- David Baldacci

Also, Harlan Coben is great for a thriller. His books Gone For Good and Tell No One are really good.

Hm, one of my personal favorite fantasy series is The Black Jewel Trilogy by Anne Bishop, they're amazing.

Crime-fiction: I like Tess Gerritsen and her books The Sinner, The Surgeon, The Apprentice.

And for the war ones, I agree with xHolyValorx on "Night". It was really vivid and even though I read it last year, I still sometimes think about it.

the host by stephanie myer is a good one

Atonement - Ian McEwan.
The book is about a million times better than the film, and it's sort of set in WW2.

There was also a book I read and I can't remember what it's called GRR.
It's set in World War Two and this girl's boyfriend is called up to fight and not long after that she leaves home to become a nurse and she gets sent to France and it's written as a diary half hers half his.

Terrier by Tamora Pierce is a good fantasy one.As is Trickster's Choice, and Lady Knight
