The Count of Monte Cristo, To Kill a Mockingbird, Huckleberry Finn, Anything by Edgar Allen Poe, Lord of the Rings, Of Mice and Men, Lord of the Flies, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. The Great Gatsby.
Alexander Dumas’ books are good: The Count of Monte Cristo and The Three Musketeers. I always thought the books were better than the various movies. Personal favorites: A Tale of Two Cities, Shakespeare, especially Hamlet and Macbeth, The Scarlett Letter, and The Crucible (which is a play but reads decently as a novel). Not a fan of Poe at all, but everyone else seems to like him.
East of Eden by John Steinbeck, Breakfast at Tiffany’s by Truman Capote,Sherlock Holmes especially The Hound of the Baskervilles by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, The Dain Curse by Dashiell Hammett
I personally adore The Picture of Dorian Gray, The Tell Tale Heart, The Catcher in the Rye, Brave New World, Pride and Prejudice, Jane Eyre…the real answer is everything that you can learn from is worth reading!
A Little Princess and A Secret Garden both by Frances Hodgson Burnett. If you never read any other classics, then read these two. This woman was a GENIUS. ❤
Animal Farm, 1984 by G. Orwell, All C.Dickens works, J.Austen, Native Son, by R. Wright, T.S. Eliot. Poe, the Raven, Oscar Wilde, The Catcher in the Raye, The War of The Worlds, the invisible man, Around the world in eighty days…etc
Just finishing Fahrenheit 451. Its a definite must read! It’s quite layered and deep. I an missing so much just trying to absorb it all. I’ll need to to go back and reread it.
All quiet on the western front….you will never read anything more intense as this war story, about a young German who buys into the propaganda and joins the army to fight in ww1…and all the horrors he faces there…..if you want to know what war is like without actually going, this is it
