This book is fantastic. Irving deftly mixes humor with tragedy. His skill in undeniable. It is evident in every sentence. He possesses the ablility to make the reader laugh and cry within the same scene. Superbly written and universally meaningful, you cannot go wrong with The World According to Garp.

Watership Down
by
Richard Adams

, July 14, 2008
This novel is shockingly amazing. It is about a group of rabbits that are expelled from their home. It is about courage, fear, death, leadership and survival. The simple prose is easy to read and immediately arresting. It is truly impossible not to feel nearly every emotion as you read about these little rabbits. Fear, camaraderie, anger, joy. Easily a classic.
