This is the Movies, Music, TV and Books forum, yes? Then why are books never mentioned. I'll admit I don't read anywhere near as much as I watch TV or listen to music but occasionally I do like to read. Over the last couple of days I've been reading "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho. It's a story about realising destinies and it does make you think. I recommend you try it if you haven't already. So, what do you lot read, if anything?

It's placed high on my shelf, utterly agree, one of the best things I've ever read and absolutely inspiring to me.

I've read "The Hobbit" and "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy plenty of times. They will probably never be bested as my favourite books.

I'm reading a book called "Want to Play? Hide and Seek and Kill"

It's pretty good.
