booklish booklist #4
The lovely Nikki is sharing her booklish booklist this week, and very nice it is too- I have to read the first one on the list, and soon! (Look out for Nikki doing some Trashionista-reviewing very soon, too...)
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas by Hunter S. Thompson
The gonzo journalist and his attorney go on a
drug-fuelled search of the American Dream. The
funniest book in the world. Ever.
I am Legend by Richard Matheson
There's only one human left in a world full of
vampires and they want him...
His Dark Materials Trilogy by Philip Pullman
First love, different dimensions, daemons, God and
saving the universe - what more could you want from a
trilogy? And The Amber Spyglass is the only book to
break my heart.
Faking It by Jennifer Crusie
Jenny Crusie's finest hour. Fascinating characters,
funny situations and great sex. The perfect lose
yourself read.
Nineteen Eighty Four by George Orwell
In the totalitarian state of Oceania Winston Smith
battles against newspeak, doublethink and the thought
police, but finally falls to his ultimate fear.
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K. Dick
Rick Deckard lives in a futuristic San Francisco
ravaged by nuclear war where he is a bounty hunter
searching for human replicants to terminate. In
typical PKD fashion nothing is at it first seems - the
pursuer becomes the pursued and we are left with the
question, is Deckard a man or an android?
What are YOUR top 6 books??? Booklish 'em! (And you don't have to agonise over it- you can always repent later and send in another list) ;)
