The Lord of the Rings, including The Hobbit and the little known Silmarilian. Also The Chronicles of Narnia: a timeless classic for young adults if ever there was one!
I’ve read the Narnia series multiple times as a child and as an adult, and every time I cried when I finished the series because I wanted to leave this world and go to Narnia so bad.
All the books are worth reading. All of them. I like reading really old books to get a glimpse of how life was like in the past. Like Jane Eyre, Little Women, and To Kill a Mockingbird. I like reading factual books to learn new things about subjects I find interesting, or to learn old things in a new perspective. And I like fairytales. I particularly enjoyed The Wishing Spell by Chris Colfer, which is the first book in The Land of Stories series. The Narnia series was just heaven when I was reading it many years ago.
East of Eden, The Good Earth, The Red Tent, Mrs. Dalloway, Atonement, The Road, A Dog’s Purpose, The Davinci Code, Pride and Prejudice…just a few…too many books I have loved to name 🙂
Gone With the Wind. I love the movie but my heart was ripped out, stepped on, and crushed multiple times in the book and then I found myself laughing and crying and just being happy all at once! Scarlet in the movie has nothing on Scarlet in the book!
The nightingale by Kristin Hannah, Sarah’s key by Tatiana de Rosnay, Before we were yours by Lisa Wingate, The lost wife by Alyson Richman, Florence Grace by Tracy Rees, The secret mother by Shalini Boland, The light between oceans by M.L Stedman, The Kitchen House by Kathleen Grissom, all the books by Diane Chamberlain, etc. Too many books to mention…….
Forever by Pete Hamill. We Need To Talk About Kevin by Lionel Shriver. Fall On Your Knees by Ann-Marie Mcdonald. Snow Flower and The Secret Fan by Lisa See.
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, Douglas Adams, and for years A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving, although I re-read that recently and it’s a little dated
The Discworld books by Sir Terry Pratchett.
I second that…any day. ?
Favorite book ever: The Stand by Stephen King

@Alice One of the saddest news I ever got is that Alan Rickman died. He was one of my favorite characters.
I don’t think I’ve still really accepted it. :/
But also Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier.
Watched Rebecca first time in a long time with a friend who had never seen it. She loved it and also jamica inn
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte
Harry Potter. Ever year. Every book. Till I’m dead.
