This is for...
This is for reviews of books I'm reading or have read or books people suggest to me.
My first comment of a particular book:
the Bible: full of run-on sentences. lol.(not making fun of the Bible or anything, just commenting on the way it was written).
Plz, suggest books for me to read. But plz keep it within this guidline:
no drugs or stuff like that
no inappropriate stuff
nothing that has anything to do with the devil
etc
thank-you
About the Bible. Remember that it was written long, long ago and not in English. There are many different translations. Some of them are old-fashioned (like the King James Version) and some more modern. In all, there are some very, very long sentences!

Actually, MC Anonymous (love your name! :) ) Those long sentences are one of my many favorite things about the Bible. Not least because I tend to write like that, myself-- even here on the CB I have to review my sentences and break them up into smaller ones. :/ ;)
I will recommend some books as soon as I've got time! :)

First of all, what do you you mean by "inappropriate stuff"? Is h... a couple times bad? Second, are you a very sophisticated reader? If the answers to those are yes, then 'Call of the Wild', 'White Fang', and 'Sea Wolf' by Jack London are good. Reminder: these are slightly violent adult books and if you don't think you are up to that level, read 'The Jungle Book' by Rudyard Kipling and 'Pinnochio' (the original, not some Disney version) by Carlo Collodi. On second thought, read The Jungle Book and Pinnochio anyway.
