1. Shantaram (Gregory David Roberts): So good that mom stayed up until 3AM to finish it. 2. Mistborn trilogy (brandon sanderson): Gripping storytelling and by far one of the best fantasy books i've ever read. 3. Millennium trilogy (steig larsson): Hard to slot this book. On its face it is a thriller but the book is merely the medium through which the author lashes out against crimes toward women and corruption.In 2008, he was the second-best selling author in the world 4. American Shaolin (Matthew Polly): An exciting read but still do not know what is fact and what is fiction. .
