The Unbearable Lightness of Being, Milan Kundera. I’m about a quarter way through and I can’t relate in the slightest to any of the characters, so I’m not really enjoying it, but I’ll stick it out.
Next I’m going to pick up Anna Karenina, by Leo Tolstoy. After that I’m going to read 10 or so trashy, mind numbing, chick lit books, which are my true love (but shhh, don’t tell anybody). I try to balance these types of books with books where you actually have to think, so that my mind doesn’t rot.

I read that book about the girl with burns, it was so powerful, i never understood how she was really feeling until one night i myself got burnt at a party, i have a scar on my leg for the rest of my life now, I feel somewhat what she is feeling but i cant imagine having your whole body burnt and in scars. I feel sad now thinking of it.

The Little Prince..is wonderful.

And it's not just a nostalgic childhood pick me up for ALL ages. You can read it in a sitting and find that its simplicity has such depth that it'll blow you away.

And it has pictures when was the last time you read a picture book?
