Dracula.342 reviews
Bram Stoker

Dtv, 2000

An old fashioned tale that doesn't offend
Bram Stoker's "Dracula" was first published in 1897, and as one reads this work, it is overwhelmingly apparent that it was written during a time when morals and virtues were held in a much higher regard than they are today. The book is comprised primarily of various journal entries from six main characters. Two of these main characters are remarkable women, possessed of lofty talent and high ...

Gap Creek: The Story Of A Marriage (Oprah's Book Club)358 reviews
Robert Morgan

Dtv, 2001

Acts Of Love
After the first reading, you might not get this book but I think with a long reflection afterwards, the quiet wisdom of it hits you. It's the stark and honest story of a young, hardworking girl ( perhaps the hardest working heroine I have ever come across) who is the rock of her family and who gets married to the first young, attractive man who shows some interest in her besides the interest she ...
  
  











  



  
Power. Die 48 Gesetze der Macht. Ein Joost- Elffers- Buch.503 reviews
Robert Greene

Dtv, 2001

Buy this book, and read it in secret!
If you watch TV news and movies and believe the Forrest Gump morality out there, that "people will be good to you if you're good to them" or that "if you can't trust your friends, whom can you trust?", then you need to read this book and wake up and smell the coffee. Tired of the self-help books telling you that all you need to do to get ahead is just be a better, bigger person? Garbage, ...

Jane Eyre.596 reviews
Charlotte Bronte

Dtv, 1998

Best Book in the World!
Jane Eyre is my favorite book. I love it. I read it first when I was 10, but it did not appeal to me at all, so I stopped reading it. I tried a year later. It immediately became my favorite book. I have read many other good books too, like Rebecca, but Jane Eyre is #1! I have recommended it to all my friends who love reading. This book is very great for someone my age (12) who is not ...

Faserland. Roman.2 reviews
Christian Kracht

Dtv, 2002

From North to South
Crossing the mid 90s Germany on an Odyssey, aimless, Kracht's character takes you on a journey through a country he calls "the big machine in the north evermore building and expanding itself". Seldomly I found a better description. Makes you understand them Germans a bit more, problem is, you need to read it in german. But it's well worth it for the oddities and mishaps the young protagonist gets ...
