    I dunno, I like a lot of books and authors. I read several languages but mainly just thai and english. I also read books that are translated from other languages like japanese, korean, etc. as well.
    I read the original book version of the hit movie 'the ring/ringu' too, I thought it was pretty good but it was totally different from the movies. I mean, no dead girl climbing out of the TV or anything like that LOL

    I don't like some writers. I personally think Meg Cabot (Princess Diaries) sucks. Her books really suck. I've read all of them Princess Diaries series, The mediator series, Where are you series, Victoria and the rogue, Nicola and the viscount, she went all the way, and all the others. I only read them when I was a little girl because I didn't know better, but now I really hate them. She's a terrible writer IMO xD

    Well, I don't read much. But there was this series that got me into reading: The Cirque Du Freak Series.
    The author is Darren Shan. I finished the Cirque Du Freak ones and I am on his demonata series, it's a bit different than his first series, but I like it.
