What was the last good book you read?

Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder. It is a novel about the history of philosophy, but I am sure that it's very different from the other boring philosophy books around. It teaches you how to think in an interesting and fabulous way and trains you to consider everything as a philosopher. Thinking is quite vital because if you lose your way in life, you have to choose the best option - go back or keep going on. Think and you will find your own answer deep inside your heart. Read this book yourself if you want to know more about philosophy.

Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom. Morrie sheds new light on many fundamental questions in life, as part of his reflection as he faces death. His honest and touching musings highlight that the true meaning of life is love. I'd say that the book is an inspirational lesson about how to live life to the fullest.

The Wish List by Eoin Colfer. When the tally of the good and bad deeds Meg Finn had done in her life is dead even, her only chance for salvation is by going back to an old pensioner, the last person she hurt, who has a wish list of the wrong choices in his life that he wants to make right. Yet the Devil will not let a soul go so easily. This is the amazing experience of simply doing good to others.
