I have always loved reading. From a little girl to a student of literature, books have always been doorways of adventure and imagination for me. They have expanded my world view by taking me to places I have never seen and showing me ways of life that are different to mine.

So here is a list of my favorite reads which I will be adding to in the years to come.

Fiction:

• The Chronicles of Narnia (C.S. Lewis) : they make me feel like a child while teaching me lessons as an adult
• A Room With A View (E.M. Forster)
• War and Peace (Leo Tolstoy)
• Pride and Prejudice (Jane Austen)
• Captain Corelli's Mandolin (Louis de Bernières)
• The Night Circus (Erin Morgenstern)
• Gone With The Wind (Margaret Mitchell)

Plays:

• The Importance of Being Earnest (Oscar Wilde)
• A Midsummer Night's Dream (William Shakespeare)
• Hamlet (William Shakespeare)

Poetry:

• Paradise Lost (John Milton)

Other:

• Other People's Love Letters (Bill Shapiro, ed.)
