These are the books that I recommend. 제가 추천하는 책입니다.


	Woman: An Intimate Geography Author: Natalie Angier ISBN: 0385498411	I really appreciated my brother for recommending this book to me. The author explains why women are "superior" with biological, physiological, medical and scientific proofs. Not a sexist book, though. This is an excellent book for all educated minds.

	The Good Earth (Enriched Classics) Author: Pearl S. Buck ISBN: 1416500189	Have you identified yourself with a character in the book? When I go to the book club to discuss the book, I noticed that people talk about themselves, whether they realize it or not. I identified myself with O-lan in the Good Earth. How about you?

	Angels & Demons (Robert Langdon) Author: Dan Brown ISBN: 0743486226	I love this book. I love the way it keeps your mind wonder, how it makes you think what really is wrong and what really is right in our lives. This book is definitely a must-read for all, especially if you feel you are stable in your beliefs.

	The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress Author: Robert A. Heinlein ISBN: 0312863551	My love Jay suggested that I read this book. I read Heinlein's books, and I don't know why I did not know of this one. I was mesmerized how the author could describe little details only those who actually lived in that culture would know. A great book.

	The Pillars of the Earth Author: Ken Follett ISBN: 0451207149	This books is a winner. I couldn't put it down. Hooking me on western historical book, the book came to me with gripping readability and memorable description. The details on architectural references were fabulous too!

	The Da Vinci Code Author: Dan Brown ISBN: 1400079179	At first I didn't think the world would be stirred by this book the way it did. It didn't suggest any new theories or perspective. It had plenty of wrong information too. But, considering public ignorance and human belief system, this book is a must-read.

	Digital Fortress: A Thriller Author: Dan Brown ISBN: 0312995423	I don't know why, but this book reminds me of Robert Heinlein. If you are sci-fi fan, please read this book and help me understand why I keep think of Heinlein's work. :) Enjoy!

	Deception Point Author: Dan Brown ISBN: 1416524800	I thought this was weaker book of all the interesting books Dan Brown wrote. Brown has his style to describe what he wants to say. It is a good thriller.

	Storm Front (The Dresden Files, Book 1) Author: Jim Butcher ISBN: 0451457811	I am not a big fan of fantasy, and this first book was not the best I've read either. But I moved onto subsequent books and slowly got hooked in. This book was made into TV show too, which was done horribly and poorly. So don't watch it. Read the book.

	Fool Moon (The Dresden Files, Book 2) Author: Jim Butcher ISBN: 0451458125	You will want to start with the Book 1, "Storm Front." I learned a little bit about Werewolf and its family in this book. Very interesting and well explained. The plot is a bit flimsy, but weirdly enough, that's what I liked about this book. Enjoy!

	Grave Peril (The Dresden Files, Book 3) Author: Jim Butcher ISBN: 0451458443	The publisher has changed the cover design since the book was turned into TV show. I think it is a mistake; the original design had suggestive typography. Fortunately, content has not changed. So let's keep on reading! Click on the link to buy the book.

	Summer Knight (The Dresden Files, Book 4) Author: Jim Butcher ISBN: 0451458923	I thought this was the most light-hearted book of all the series. Fairytale turned into fairywar was interesting and imaginative. It had interesting approach on right-and-wrong. But overall, the book was easy for anyone to follow.

	Death Masks (The Dresden Files, Book 5) Author: Jim Butcher ISBN: 0451459407	The Dresden Files was getting interesting from this book and on. In the last book new, interesting characters were introduced. I was glad that I survived through previous 4 books. You will too. Click on the link; I found a lot of used books on sale. Enjoy!

	Blood Rites (The Dresden Files, Book 6) Author: Jim Butcher ISBN: 0451459873	Titles of Dresden Files books have specific pattern: they are of two words, and each word is composed of same number of characters. I pointed this out to several fans of the Dresden Files and was surprised to discover none of them noticed! Did you?

	Dead Beat (The Dresden Files, Book 7) Author: Jim Butcher ISBN: 045146091X	The publisher begun to change the cover design starting about when this book came out. I didn't like the new design simply because it lost the consistency and story line with previous designs. But as a stand-alone book, it was a nicer, mature design.

	Proven Guilty (The Dresden Files, Book 8) Author: Jim Butcher ISBN: 0451461037	No comment on this book. Let's keep on reading!

	White Night (The Dresden Files, Book 9) Author: Jim Butcher ISBN: 0451461401	I am not a fan of hard covers so haven't read this one yet. Fans and friends of mine says that this has interesting development. I can no longer wait until paperback comes out, so I am borrowing it to read it. Let's read this together. Click on the link!
