i love "The Catcher in the Rye"-J.D. Salinger (maybe Holden isn't deep but he's just like teenagers are...don't we all consider ourselves superior from time to time?<almost all the time> but i think he's smart...he was created in a very intelligent way)
i also like "The Alchemist"- Paulo Coelho (it may be a cliche but it's a great book..it has a strong message and it makes you think deeper telling you that all your dreams could come true because the Universe wants that to happen)

this may sound REALLY REALLY DUMB but i'm not gonna hide my first favorite book that i still love..."Winnie the Pooh"- A.A. Milne and now i'm gonna say why i love it...i think it's a metaphore and Winnie represents Christopher Robin's childhood and at the end, when it says that a little boy and his bear will be forever playing in the woods and that the woods will be there for anyone to find them, it surely means that you can always remember about your childhood and <here is the embarrassing part> i cried when i read the end of it...because i wanted to go back in time and do the kind of stuff that i never did cause i was always too mature to have imaginary friends...

what's my point?? easy: a book is good as long as it makes you feel something: it may make you laugh or cry...
by the way..i used to love the Harry Potter books before they got so popular and all the 5-year-olds are "wooh....i wanna be Harry Potter!!"...and you know why? they made me feel something too...
