Fic Talk > General Discussion
Anyone reading books lately...
Teri:
1) Is anybody reading anything else other than fan fiction? I am!
2) If so, what authors or books could you reccomend? I love older fiction as well as newer too. I just finished Anna Karenina (can never spell that properly lol!) by Leo Tolstoy and I loved it, they don't make novels like that anymore! Also Ulysses is amazing, hard to follow at first because it's stream of consciousness but it's fantastic. Another I would totally recommend is Jane Austen, Persuasion is my personal favorite.
and 3) What is it that gives you an idea for fan fiction? Usually a song or idea or even a line from a book, movie, television show that totally gets me. Like I'm mapping out two stories based on songs. Cupid's Chokehold by Gym Class Heroes and Unmistakable by BSB
mare:
I just started My Sister's Keeper and I LOVE it! It's nothing like I thought it would be. For some reason I thought it was about a sister taking care of a mentally retarded sister lol no idea why.
MonkeyAbu:
^ What is it about Mare?
mare:
It's about a thirteen year old girl who was born primarily to save her sister's life. Her parents made sure she had the perfect genes to help be a bone marrow donor for the sister who has cancer, but now that she needs a new kidney too, the little sister decides she doesn't want to donate it and wants to emancipate from her parents. It's all very interesting and told from everyone's point of view which is what I like most about Jodi Picoult.
honey:
sounds depressing.
