I saw this post on victorias blog: http://lilyloveslola.blogspot.com/2009/07/favourite-reads.html and thought it was a great idea! so I have been through the books I have in my room at the moment and picked out the best, I have 6 instead of 5 as I couldnt choose between them.
1. Where rainbows end by Cecelia Ahern - I loved this book so much, It is set over years and years right from the 2 mains characters childhoods right through to old age and it is such a lovely story, I wont give the story away but I would definatly recommend this book, its one of my faves!
2. Lucky by Jackie Collins - This book follows a character called Lucky Santangelo and is part of a large series I think, Its full of money and sex and crime and mystery and it really drew me in!
3. The virgins lover by Philippa Gregory - This is again part of a series which the film the other Boleyn girl came from. I have read them all now and they are all really good, I would say that the best is actually one called The Queens fool but I couldnt find my copy anywhere. They are all full of scandal and are amazingly well writen!
4. The Secret of Crickley Hall by James Herbert - I got this book from a £2 bookshop in Huddersfield as I fancied something new and hadnt ever read many horrors and Im so glad I did. I scare easily when it comes to ghosts and things that make noises in the night so this book had me scared to the point where I couldnt even go to the toilet in the dark lol! Its a really goodstory and really is soo scary and I even found it quite upsetting at points as there is a sad issue within the family. I have since read alot of James Herbert books and some of them are quite confusing but others I would recommend are the magic cottage, and the Fog which I enjoyed alot too.
5. Daddys girls by Tasmina Perry - Full of sex, scandals and celebrities! I found it so hard to put this book down and I was quite upset when I finished it. It is about 4 sisters who are all suspected of killing their wealthy father and I really didnt want to put it down!
6. Angel by Katie Price - I know she probably didnt actually write her books but I got this when it first came out quite a few years ago and I loved it straight away. Its about a young girl becoming a model and getting caught up in the celebrity world and I have read this many times since and I still enjoy it as much. I have also really enjoyed all of the other books she has written such as Angel uncovered and Crystal and there is one out the end of this month which I am going to buy too!
I bought a few new books from Sainsburys at the weekend which were Sins by Penny Jordan and The host by Stephanie Meyer so Im going to be reading these next as I just finished my last book (The last to know by Melissa Hill - good but abit complicated)

Where Rainbows End is probably my favourite book. I have read it more than 10 times I LOVE IT lol. The Host is on my wishlist =) xx
Meant to say have you read Golddiggers by Tasmina Perry? I wouldn't have ever picked any book of hers up - I didn't think I would like - but it was the only English book I could find on holiday after I'd read my others and it was great, I read it in a day!
