Give me a book to read pleaseee. :]

I'm into .. Romance and tragic love stories.

It can be anything ranging from ;; Fantasy, action, comedy, and mystery so long as there's some kind of love story tied to the story. :]

Thank youuu.

Well, I am personally a fan of several series. I would suggest the Artemis Fowl series as a good quick read.
Look into Artemis Fowl: The Arctic Incident.
It is the second book, but if you have good assumption abilities, you can read it first. If not, take a few hours and read the first one.

Another suggestion would be any book in the Redwall series. I loved that series and I am an extremely picky reader.

Go to borders and pick up Rumo by Walter Moers. It's a fantasy/adventure/humor novel with that tragic love story element that you want. It is personally my favorite novel and I have read it numerous times.
A word of caution though, its a bit long (around 700 pages). However there are many illustrations for you to look at.

artemis fowl series is pretty good for a kids book. also i recommend "the experiment" by john darnton. i was required to read it for a high school biology class (its science -mystery), but since then it has become one of my all time favorites.

Mystic River comes to mind, pretty short (about 400 pages iirc) it's basically about a family that has a death in the family that was loved by all and it's pretty insane. Best read if you've never heard of the movie which was a damn shame, not as immensely moving as the book.

A good one I still read every chance I get that has a tragic love sense to it is Eisenheim the Illusionist, it's a short story in The Barnum Museum written by Steven Millhauser. Great movie adaptation too surprisingly!

House of the Scorpion. I don't remember who wrote it, but it's amazing.
