恐怖小说不知道爱不爱看,Steven King的东西用词简单易懂,还有悬疑,读起来很有一口气到底的感觉,就是读完了会怕;同类的Bentley Little,可惜有些血腥暴力,我实在喜欢他不起来.短些的像Jack O'London的经典短篇,极其精练,但结构很缜密,且读完了会满多感慨.我曾经很爱的中篇有The Call of the Wild,强烈推荐.词汇量比较大点的话不妨考虑Dan Brown的东东,前一阵子超热的Da Vinci Code,书比电影好看太多! 他之前写的Digital Fortress还有Angels & Demons也很好看.如果喜欢玄幻类的东西不妨读Harry Potter系列吧,比Lord of the Rings好读许多,后者有些艰涩了,仿佛外国人读西游记般的感觉.如果喜欢营养多一些的东西,而且愿意慢慢咀嚼的话,推荐The Unbearable Lightness of Being,跟一个睿智老者交流的感觉,大有裨益.他的The Book of Laughter of Forgetting也值得一读,很是温暖.朋友有推荐过他的Life is Elsewhere,还没来得及拜读.经典的我爱Jane Austin的Pride and Prejudice, Persuation...女生都太读.还留着些纯洁的童心的话,Waterbabies,The Nutcracker都很美.
