Any good, CLEAN books you suggest I read? (genres: teen romance, mystery/suspense, cutesy, etc.)?

I have to pick another book to read for this quarter to do a project on. I’m looking for some book suggestions, but on specific genres/topics. First off, it has to be clean. By clean I mean as little sexual references, etc. as possible. I go to a Christian school, and neither me nor my teachers like reading / hearing a report on a screwed up book. To put it lightly. Anyways. Christian-based books would be great, too. CLEAN at least. I really like books about teens / teen romance. NOT romance novels, like Twilight or whatever. I love mystery or suspense books / novels, as well. For genres, mainly, I like teenage romance [CLEAN], mystery / suspense, Christian, girly / teen, etc. Some books / authors I like are the Traveling Pants series, Diary of a Teenage Girl [Melody Carlson], A Wrinkle In Time [I'm not big on classics, but try for it], Perfect, Bounce, and Lush by Natasha Friend, The Shack, the Inkheart series, Door Within, etc. Alrightyy, go for it. (: 10 points to best answer of a book I end up reading(:


What are some good books if I like…?

What are some good books to read if I already LOVE the Twilight series.
I DON’T want Vampire books… I didn’t read them because of the vampires in them. I read them for the romance, adventure, twists, the mystery behind the characters. I loved all the characters in the Twilight books. I also just read Stolen by Lucy Christopher
and Crank by Ellan Hopkins… I liked both… didn’t love Crank but I think I’m going to finish the series. I LOVE the Left Behind Series also… the books you recommend doesn’t have to be Christian. I read fast. I got Crank and Stolen at the library 2 days ago and I’ve finished both. (not that you needed to know that lol). I like books about romance, mystery, twists, suspense, adventure, ect. I would kinda like to read more books like stolen (about a girl that gets kidnapped… i don’t want it to be gory though… she was never raped and he actually loved her… kinda weird i know) I wouldn’t mind reading some psycho-thrillers… Thanks everyone! :)


Christians: 2000 years and we’re still waiting for the punch line?

You left us in suspense with a magic zombie, how does the joke finish? Dont tell us he was actually sane, we’ve already figured that out for ourselves.


What are some good Christian suspense novels?

I’m a huge fan of Ted Dekker and have read almost all of his books, and I love most of Frank Peretti’s work too. I’m currently reading one by Noel Hynd and am enjoying it, but I’m almost done and I need some suggestions for what to read next.


MY GIRL FRIEND CHEATING ON ME. How Should i Handle This Situation??? PLEASE HELP.?

I APOLOGISE FOR BEING SO LENGTHY. PLEASE HELP ME. PLEASE. Dear Friends, I am a Doctor of 30 old. Proposed a girl of 25 yrs old. We decided to get married. I told her my past (2 love failures). she said she had no past. We are unto sexual relationship since 2 yrs. the very first year everyday we had sex. the next year i moved out of station and used to meet her once in month or 2 months. WE ARE LIKE A PERFECT COUPLE. Am christian and she a Hindu. Very recently (8 months) i developed herpes (rashes on my penis). i got both of us tested. mine was negative and hers was positive. I completely reassured her saying that its not a big problem at all and its very common and it spreads virally since childhood. I NEVER SUSPECTED HER(though am a doctor) and was also trying my best to cure her coz i was worried about our babies (after our marriage). for the past 6 months, she is very mood, says she is upset, sad BUT NO REASON WHY. I tried so much to speak to her, she never opened up. AND I HAD A FEELING THAT MAY BE SOME PROBLEM IN HER PAST, HAUNTING HER. I wanted to know her. help her. I LOVE HER VERY MADLY, AND WE ARE GOING TO BE MARRIED. I know her mentality, she never opens up with me. I INSTALLED SPY SOFTWARES IN HER MOBILE.. (i recieve every sms copy incoming & outgoing, call details) I found that she is lying me, everytime she says that she is moody, want to take rest, or busy.. SHE IS WITH SOME OTHER GUY.. I WAS VERY UPSET. Not bcos she is with some guy, but WHY DID SHE LIE TO ME. I WANTED TO KNOW MORE ABOUT HER. This time I installed call recording & room recording software… her phone calls gave me a picture that she is flirting with every guy (4-5). EVEN WORSER, she is unto physical relatioship with 3 guys (other than me) even now. I KNOW THIS FOR SURE through the room recording (she willingly had sex with 3 different guys at different times) AM COMPLETELY BROKEN. still am not satisfied, I CANT LET HER GO. I LOVE HER & WE WANT TO GET MARRIED. (she is unaware that I know all these things about her). Now I hired a Private Detective, I got the picture very clear now (I HAVE THE RECORDINGS& PHOTOS). ITS CONFIRMED THAT SHE IS CHEATING ON ME. Now problem is, am not able to break up with her, I dont know how to handle this situation. WE still speak for hours on phone, we meet regularly, have sex and keen on getting married. I never noticed a feature of GUILT on her face, or eyes. I LOVED A GIRL WHO WA VERY SOBER, DECENT & WHO LOVED ME WITH TRUE HEART. WHO IS LOYAL TO ME. But she turned out to be like this. Now 2 things running on my mind
1. JUST CUT OFF ALL RELATIONS WITH HER
2. CUT OFF THE RELATIONS WITH HER, BUT BEFORE THAT speakl to her, make her realise that she shouldnt be like this. her life will become a joke and she will be ruined, I WANT TO HELP HER OUT. MAKE HER REALISE THAT SHE IN SINNING. WHAT SHOULD I DO? TILL NOW SHE DOESNT KNOW THAT I KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT HER. SHE IS THINKING THAT WE WILL BE MARRIED. Right now, am typing this question & she is chatting with a guy on her mobile.. The conversation is like this,
GUY:- I am waiting for you on my bed, I want your milk , nobody is at home come hereetc etc. I want ONE NIGHT as a birthday. where will you kiss me?
MY GF:- just, took bath, wearing dress, what do you want as my birthday party? and when do u want? where will i kiss is a suspense, will you help me in wearing dress. GUYS AM TOTALLY BROKE. WEEPING SINCE SIX MONTHS, NOW I WANT TO CRY BUT AM NOT GETTING TEARS. I GAVE HER SO MUCH LOVE. AM STILL GIVING. my questions are:- 1. she is in committment with me and at the same time, she wleeping with all? even to this moment. why like this? I CAN FORGIVE PAST. whatever it is because IT IS PAST. BUT IN PRESENT, she is like this… how do i handle?? 2. Let her LIVE the life that way she wants, BUT WHY TAKE ME UNTO THIS?? She can leave me, break it BUT SIMULTANEOUSLY WITH 3-4 guys . ITS GREAT TORTURE FOR ME (I threw everyone into TRASH after meeting this girl, I introduce, consider her NOT AS MY GIRL FRIEND BUT AS MY FIANCE, I dont even feel like to look at any other girl) 3. Even now, I am thinking of her life, I am worried about her life, what will her life become if she continues her LIFE this way, I want to help her out..
OR SIMPLY WALK AWAY. I APOLOGISE TO YOU ALL FOR BEING SO LENGTHY… PLEASE HELP ME
even though i know all this.. I havent used a condom, because i do not want to give her a feeling that am being selfish. I always considered as my wife, i love her so much that am with her in pain, happiness or death. Now am herpes positive. Being a doctor i took risk. But being a husband I loved her selflessly.

So…Night Of Champions 2010, Lasting Impression Or Stick In The Sand? Plus BQ’s?

I haven’t seen it yet but I viewed the results and it looks awesome.My views without seeing it: Good things: Age Of Orton is back
Jericho is gone.Either take your chances or don’t.
Danielson is FINALLY a champ.
The Miz didn’t cash in yet, leaving more suspense to as when he will.
New tag champs with plenty of new tag teams, I hope this revatilizes the division.
Melina didn’t win, a shocker.
Kane won, unsuprisingly, but still props.
Ziggler beat Kingston. Bad things: MELINA DIDN’T WIN!
As much as i’m glad Orton is champ again, I can’t help feel it would be better if Edge or Barrett won.
Punk beat again.*Sighs*
JoMo? Ted? In a DARK MATCH?
Nothing to do with PPV, but damn I wanted Christian involved.
No Jack Swagger.Gone from world champ to no show in 2 months, but I ain’t complaining. Overall I’m glad this PPV was free in the UK because I defo. wouldn’t have bought it.But it LOOKS solid and on first glance without watching I would give the PPV a 7/10. Your thoughts? BQ:How likely did you think it was that The Miz would cash in?
BQ2:Did you THINK he would?
BQ3:What would be your reaction if *shock* Miz cashes in on Taker atWM 27? Star if you like


How often does the human mind assume things?

Sorry this is so long, but its necessary to explain my question.
I see religion and spiritual matters, as an “everything subject matter”
Even atheism associates to it. However, it surprises me how often people don’t exactly make room, for “everything” in their thinking.
I just asked another question, and explain weaknesses in popular Christianity to atheists
What’s funny is that some didn’t believe me that I was telling them the best things to mess with Christians in this day and time. What might seem so strange about that, is that I believe on Jesus Christ. The reason I told them the things I did, is because popular present day Christianity is not even aware that when you study the ancient documents the Bible was translated from. The original form of Christianity did not teach them. They resulted from mistranslations and cultural-isms that have distorted Christian doctrines over time. I really was telling the atheist the most unstable things in Christianity to pick on. That even the Bible itself can be used to destabilizes those beliefs.
However, since I said I was a Christian, some of them didn’t believe me that I was telling them the best things to pick on.
One person said that I must be a muslim, another person said I was a Jehovah’s witness. The suspense is killing me, which am I?
Another person said I wasn’t a Christian, at all
What’s most assumption about this, is that the person thought I would be offended by it.
I believe on Jesus Christ, but I don’t always call myself a Christian. Through studying details of the Bible I’ve found that the term, “Christian” was originally given to Christians, by unbelievers. They called them, “Christ-ins”, because they were always talking about Christ being in them. It was an insult. The word of God, itself, never gave believers on Christ any distinction than by what God, Christ, or his follows, “did” It did not give them a name to be counted different from the rest of humanity. Only other people, wanting to segregate themselves from them, did that. Honestly, I don’t always like being associated to modern day Christianity. Through study of the texts the Bible was translated from, present day doctrines often kinda make me want to puke. I wouldn’t be offended by someone refusing to call me a Christian. Sometimes, I don’t want to be called one. I did even only one uncommon thing that people would encounter, and rather than even imagining that it could be for other reasons, all these different kinds of people made assumptions.
My question is, “Do you realize, that its every kind of person in this world making assumptions, not just the kind you most commonly disagree with?” Just once I’d like someone to at least argue with me for what I believe, rather that what someone else does, and they assumed I think like them. Every human being is a fascinating and valuable individual, full of variety. This Universe is no small place, and distinctions in it, are not smaller than the details of their entirety’s. One thing I’ve noticed that people assume most often, is that someone is not telling them the truth, or that someone isn’t up to no good. What do you think about that human beings so easily assume things?


Christians, have you ever considered that God might not reveal himself personally to everyone because…?

as a creator, he likes creativity, and so appreciates the diversity of religious thought that would be removed if he ended the suspense?


Any christian fiction/suspense book suggestions?

Hi Everyone :) I have read just about all of Ted Dekker’s books and have recently started reading Steven James stuff. I have fallen in love with the christian suspense genre; Anyone know of any other authors and books in this genre that are a good read?
Thank you very much :)


Does anyone have any good books to recommend for me………?

I really prefer fiction and am not a fan of non-fiction generally. I’m very into what they call chick-lit. I also like romance. And SOME mystery. I like my books to have some humor. Or you know with witty, humorous dialogue. I’m not big on christian fiction generally, and I do NOT like most mystery, sci-fi, or suspense! Some of my favorite authors are janet evanovich, wendy markham, susan donovan, gemma townley, beth kendrick, rachel gibson, leanne banks, jane green, kasey micheals, jane heller, vicki lewis thompson, mary kay andrews, whitney gaskell, sophie kinsella, meg cabot, lori foster, and soooo many more but that’s all I remember right now. Obviously I read a lot. I’ve been sick for four years and reading is my escape. And generally I go through a new book every two days or so. So obviously I’m running out of books to read by the authors I know and the ones at barnes and noble so I’d like to know some new authors or new books that anyone else likes or would recommend based on my preferences. Any responses or ideas are welcome even if they don’t fit my normal preferences! I’d like to hear from ANYBODY about ANY ideas or suggestions! They are all welcome! Thank you! .
