I am reading: (translated in English) Leave me alone-in dutch: Laat me met rust. It's a book I took for school, becouse it was realy thin. But I started reading in it and it actually is pretty interesting! It's about a boy who's 16 years old, and he had sex with his friend's mother. They were in love but both knew it could never be something. The boy ran away and stopped at a monastery, where he asked help. Now he lives there, and discovers the worldfrom the monks. I'm not a religious person, but I think this book is much better then I expected! here's a pic.

 Wow!!  What an interesting read Eva!  So when you said that the 16-year old boy and mother knew it wouldn't work, is that when the boy ran away from home and started his work with the monastery??  Excellent read Eva - quite intriguing!

Well, first he wanted to kill himself, and he is a good cycler and his idea was to pretend like he accidently had an accident and felt of a cliff, becouse there is a real high road with many bows, so he went home after that, and took his bike. But when he stod there he couldn't do it anymore. He wanted to but he couldn't becouse he always anted to remember what happenend with her, the feelings the thoughts, the touch. And if he is death he can't remember it anymore. So he decided not to and just rode farther, till he came at the top, were a little restaurant cafe is, and when he came there he remembered the monastery, wich he has seen a few times from up there (you can see it far away between the mountains from there. Se then he rode for over two days I think, till he came there, and then he asked the munks help. 

Now I'll tell how it goed farther. So, he is there, but there always is one munk looking at him. And one day he just disides to go ask him what's wrong (they barely talk in the monastery) and then the man, Federico, tells him he was a run away to. Then the boy tells him what happenend, and slowly they become friends. They understand eachother, and always have a chat. But so many years later, when the boy is 25 (he was 16) so already 9 years in the monastry Federico dies. The boy knows a deep inner sadness, first he gives up everthing and then he looses his friend. He is sad, and doesn't know what to do. Till one night he wakes up. He feels good, like everything has felt on its place, like he could find peace. And plus that he has a bonor, but its not just sexual,its like he can feel her (the mother of his friend) again, like she is lying right next to him, like everything that happenend then happens over again. He feels like he is in heaven, and well does his thing ^^ The next morning he wakes up joyfull, since then he regulary 'does his thing again' thinking about her. He accepted everything, and he knows he took the right desision, becouse at the end it are the memories he has that count, the memories of her, the memories of Federico and their chats, and that's all he needs :)

I realy loved this book, first I thought wtf for crazy book is this about a boy doing it with his mums friend, and then going t the monastry, but as I read on I saw thatthere was a lesson in this book, and that it wasn't so crazy it all, instead of that a beautiful and inner story :)

Last week, I finished with the fifth "Nicholas Flamel"-Book, and currently I am reading the forth of the "Dragon Wytch"-books, by Yasmine Galenorn. This books are about 3 sisters from the "otherworld". One is a witch, one is a vampire and the third turns into a cat. They all half faeries and half human. Their father deserted from the "otherworld"-army and they been banned from home into the earth. They fight against demons and especially against one demon, that wants to rule the earth and destroy the "otherworld!.

For fantasy-fans, like me, it`s a perfect book, with lots of magic, unicorns, dragons, pixies and other magical folks.
