It seems like new music, movies, and television suck. Do new book suck too? I have been thinking about reading books recently because I am so sick of everything else. I don't want to bother trying something that I won't like. I've never read novels outside of school. What is your opinion about new books? Do you read new books, or do you just read classics? Do you think there are enough new books that I could always be reading a good new book?
books have always been and always will be the optimal form of media, there will always be great writers out there and there are still all the books from the past.
if your looking for any suggestions Dean Koontz's Odd Thomas series is incredible, im reading the third book now, and ive heard that there is another coming
yes there are good new books out there..

Yeah... I pretty much spent my second year in high school talking to classmates, then I gave the freshmen a chance this year. They all suck. I even went to one of their parties. I'm back.
i dotn know any good modern authors
recently ive read "one flew over the cukoos nest" by ken kessy and im in teh middle of "1984" by george orwell and their both great books and there old
Just read an old book. Look for something that will keep your attention. I would also reccomend Ken Kesey, as well as Hunter S. Thompson, Philip K. Dick, and Irvine Welsh
There are hundreds of good new books. it just depends on what you want to read.
Bill Bryson is really good, it's travel-lit...it's interesting
Sometimes I find myself reading books I read in high school
-catcher in the rye (not as great reading it as an adult, it appeals more to teenagers i think)
-lord of the flies
-1984
-brave new world
-huck finn
I rarely read the classics, too many good new books to read :)
