That’s what I was gong to say. Since you already said it (and thank you for that!) I will add The Dark Tower series by Stephen King.
A monster calls.
So many but I’d probably have to go with Lord of the Flies because I remember reading it in my freshman or sophomore year of high school and being confused. Now, as an adult, I’d like to read it again to understand it better.
The Widow of the South…by Robert Hicks. It transported me, and I almost became the main character. Civil War historical fiction.
it ends with us Colleen Hoover….
Man loved it
Pillars of the Earth.
Fabulous!

I have a very long list, but one that comes to mind that I absolutely loved in the recent past is One Foot in Eden by Ron Rash
Harry Potter!
I wish I could go back and read them before seeing the movies ?
Awww..u saw the movies before u read the books! You poor thing! ☹️
@Anuradha I know haha, they were great movies too, but it definitely would have been better the other way around.
So true! The movies are good as well..but watching the movie after reading the book was something else altogether! The excitement of watching the first movie almost killed me ?
Totally!
none. I tend to enjoy books more on rereading.

Harry Potter of coarse
Prince Ombra (the original version, not the abridged silliness that was somehow published more recently) was not available when I was a child. But I do so wish I could have discovered it then, instead of when I was an adult (and experience that was certainly magical, but not in the wame way).
Harry Potter. I’ve spent my entire adult life chasing the high of the midnight book releases I experienced from 1997-2007.
The Knife of Never Letting Go
The Picture of Dorian Gray
Shawshank Redemption
This one is on my To Read because of the movie. Hopefully I get to dig in soon.
Screwtape Letters
Really dirty jokes, Part two.
Harry Potter if I haven’t already commented. Also….though I don’t read this author anymore…James Patterson had a book that came before all the Maximus Ride YA books. I think it was called Beach House but it is when the children first escaped.
We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves.
Incidentally on sale at bookbub 7/23 for $1.99.
Great book.
The Terror
Pride and Prejudice
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
