SF Book Club
« on: June 18, 2011, 09:41:16 pm »
Hey all,

Decided on opening a book club for all book lovers. :D
We can talk about:
-Books we like/dislike and why.
-Discussion on similar books we have read/would like to read.
-Recommend books to other members (depending if you like similar genres).
-Suggestion before buying a book.
-ANYTHING related to books. :D

I hope you all have a nice time here. :D



Let me start:
*Best book ever- The Holy Quran. Apart from being the Holy book of our religion. It is simply a guidance for everyday matters. It invites to a study of natural and mathematical sciences, philosophy, literature and all the branches of knowledge accessible to humanity, the learning of which is in the interest of humanity and brings happiness to humanity. The Quran invites to these branches of knowledge on condition that people are guided by this knowledge to truth and know the real world which is headed by Godliness.
Most important of all, Quran is a cure for all our spiritual ailments.


*Book which truly touched me, A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini.
The author is gifted. He has an amazing writing style, his story is absolutely compelling on every level. A must read. :D

*Harry Potter series by JK Rowling. <3 I need not say much on this except that I love JK for writing this book. :P

It's an amazing book. Very informative. (MA)

Okay first of all, I DEFINITELY agree to that! I'll +rep you TWICE for that!

Like seriously this book is not just a book of religion..if any person either a Muslim or a NON-Muslim study it they will discover A LOT about wisdom, logic, common sense and it even got scientific stuff(written 1400 years ago) which wasn't even discovered by scientists but until some time soon.

This is an awesome thread I'm going to post A LOT of books I read here!
I love reading. :D

Sometimes, ALLAH breaks our heart to make us whole.
Sometimes, ALLAH allows pain so we can be stronger.
Sometimes, ALLAH sends us failure so we can be humble.
Sometimes, ALLAH takes everything away from us so we can learn the value of everything HE gave us.

When Allah leads you to the edge of difficulty... either ALLAH will catch you when you fall or ALLAH will teach you how to fly! =]

Please make them strong ya Allah...

Very informative, MA.

I was planning on making the thread after my exams but I couldn't help it. :P

I am born to read. LOL. :P

I will be posting LOADS, soon. IA.

@Angelical- Haha. Okay.
By the way, I think I saw somewhere that you are planning on medicine or something.
If interested into medical thrillers- check Robin Cook's books. ;)
Amazing. ^
