Read Dickens. It does help in reading comprehension.

Try reading Mitch Albom books. Not very thick but have very deep and meaningful story.

I second that. And hello there blueflame. biggrin.gif

Anyway, besides The Hunger Games series, I would suggest you to check out these books as well: His Dark Materials series by Philip Pullman, The Artemis Fowl series by Eoin Colfer, and if you haven't checked out the Harry potter series, PLEASE GO AND READ IT LIKE RIGHT NOW.

If you're up to the standards, I think that 'grown-up' books are good reads too. I would suggest authors such as David Baldacci and Jeffrey Archer, both great authors. Oh, and if possible, check out books by John Green as well. His new book, The Fault In Our Stars, was just released last month. From his vlogs on YouTube, he has said that all first copies of the books WILL be signed by him. Don't know if that's the case over here in Malaysia.

For Chinese, I don't really read Chinese books but I would recommend Giddens, also known as 九把刀, author of the famous movie "You are The Apple in My Eye". (那些年, 我们一起追的女孩)

Or go for the classics. They are cheap and usually, you can learn good English from them. Get a sense of the language's rhythm. Eg any book by Jane Austen, War of the Worlds, Black Beauty.

What genre is to your liking? If you like something akin to LOTR, Dungeons&Dragons type fantasy, books by R.A Salvatore is good (got tons of 'em)..LOTR books is also good (The Silmarillion is a challenge to read)..otherwise...
