Can someone recommend me a good read that you read lately?

@D-dvd I love Fantasy Fiction and David Eddings. His Belgariad/Malloreon series are really fun to read. I also enjoy Raymond E Feist and his Riftwar Saga.
Piers Anthony and his Xanth books are really fun and full of puns.
-
@D-dvd The Celestine Prophecy: An Adventure by James Redfield discusses various psychological and spiritual ideas rooted in multiple ancient Eastern traditions and New Age spirituality.
Good read...yes I googled the description haha but I really did enjoy the book. Makes you think.

Deep Survival Gonzalez? A great book for survival techniques. Can be used in a variety of situations!

@D-dvd a nice nature poem by Santoki Taneda called Somokuto. It was just about his experience when he wanders around Japan being a monk. I love the way he describes the scenery.

The Silmarillion by JRR Tolkien will always and forever be the first book I recommend to anybody :D. Everything about that book is unearthly and yet so absurdly relatable. I love the way Tolkien amalgamates all the mythology he consumed into this book. But you must remember to read it with the other parts (Ainulindale, Valaquenta, Children of Hurin, etc) of this fantasy world. I am telling you, if you enjoy fantasy, you will NOT be disappointed.
If you're just looking for a light but thrilling read, "Gone Girl" is a decent page turner. Then there are always the dystopian classics, 1984, Brave New World, etc. Ooh, also any of Murakami's work really.
Recently, Mo Xiang Tong Xiu's works have become my guilty pleasure (hehehe). If you're into yaoi and donghua, you will love this work. The characters are intense and the stories are pretty engaging.
Finally, if all this is too much of a light read for you and if you like reading about sociology, like I do, I recommend "The protestant ethic and the spirit of capitalism" by Max Weber. I got a change to check it out recently and man, it has some fascinating perspectives. Ooh! and you should definitely go to https://www.goodreads.com/, I love that they have some epic recommendations tailored to one's preference.
