Well it's been a tháng hoặc so since my last "10 Books" article, so as promised, I'm back with thêm suggestions. I want to point out that these are my personal opinions, and I stand behind every book I add to any list. I tình yêu science fiction and fantaisie and I wanted this danh sách to reflect some of the sách I believe anyone can enjoy whether these are their yêu thích genres hoặc not. I intend to add 10 new sách to every list, so if bạn feel one is missing, please refer to my other lists as I may have already mentioned them. As always, I welcome your comments!

1. Ender's Game bởi Orson Scott Card
Ah, Ender's Game. After A Wrinkle in Time (which, I apologize, is not one of my favorites) this is often "a child's first sci-fi." This is an inspiring type of story about a young boy born at a disadvantage in a futuristic world. This is actually the first in the series, but I don't think I'll ever get to the others as the first one truly stands alone in my opinion.

2. Dance Dance Dance bởi Haruki Murakami
What can I possibly say about Murakami? When bạn read his books, bạn feel almost as if they were written for you. I was in tình yêu with this book from the very first sentence. And I can hardly explain why. This one doesn't delve too deeply into the abnormal, but it definitely has some elements of the fantastic.

3. Animal Farm bởi George Orwell
Though I am thêm of a người hâm mộ of his 1984, Orwell's Animal Farm is a marvelous introduction to allegory and human (or animal) nature. This book subtly các bình luận on Communism through the guise of a farm animal revolution. It also has one of the best endings of all-time.

4. Howl's Moving lâu đài bởi Diana Wynn Jones
I first have to admit that Howl's Moving lâu đài is one of my absolute yêu thích movies. The book surprised me bởi being just as good. They are both very different and I would highly recommend either one hoặc both. Just be sure to go into it with the mindset that the differences between them are good ones.

5. Luthiel's Song: Dreams of the Ringed Vale bởi Robert Marston Fanney
This is actually the first book in a series, but I have only read this first one so far. It seems like a typical kind of fantaisie from the outside, elves and other strange creatures fighting an evil somewhat invisible enemy. But it's so much thêm than that. Nothing is quite as it seems. I think people who like LOTR hoặc Cậu bé cưỡi rồng would enjoy this book.

6. Neuromancer bởi William Gibson
I'm told Gibson used to be one of the key players in science fiction and the genre itself owes him a great deal. This is the only one of his sách I have ever read and it is definitely a straight up sci-fi. It reminds me slightly of Blade Runner, but of course the plots are nothing alike. I can't really explain why I enjoyed this one so much, but it certainly pulled me in.

7. Người hùng báo thù bởi Alan Moore
This is the first (and probably last) graphic novel I've ever read. I'll admit it gets a little long in the middle, but it's really a fantastic story. Having the hình ảnh to follow really makes the novel thêm vivid and really sets the tone and mood. I have never been big into superheroes, but this one is definitely worth your time.

8. Coraline bởi Neil Gaiman
It feels wrong not to include a Neil Gaiman book, so I'm going with my yêu thích one: Coraline. I actually saw the movie first and like it slightly better. But the two things are very different, so it's entirely possible for me to like both for separate reasons. The book was haunting and left my tim, trái tim thudding. It's the kind of story that really sticks with you.

9. Galapagos bởi Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
Vonnegut is my yêu thích author, so I'm sure his sách will appear fairly often on my lists. I tình yêu his two most được ưa chuộng sách of course (Slaughterhouse Five and Cat's Cradle), but Galapagos is worth mentioning. I've never in my life met another person who has read it. It's the story of a post-apocalyptic type world chronicling the surviving humans in the Galapagos. It's very funny and flows in Vonnegut's usual humorous style.

10. Wicked bởi Gregory Maguire
I've heard people say both good and bad things about Wicked, but I simply adore it. I read this one while I was studying in Spain, oddly enough. It was one of the two sách I'd brought with me, and rather than letting it last me a longtime, I ravenously tore through the book in a ngày hoặc two, forgoing outings to the bờ biển, bãi biển and instead opting to stay in giường with my awesome, hard-to-put-down book.
