Not a meme or anything. Just curious.
What are the top ten or so books you have loved, or have influenced your life the most? And what are some books you haven’t read that you want to?
My Faves:
- The Fountainhead - Ayn Rand
- Grapes of Wrath – John Steinbeck
- The Prophet – Kahlil Gabran
- Bastard Out of Carolina - Dorothy Allison
- The Bluest Eye – Toni Morrison
- Rubyfruit Jungle - Rita Mae brown
- I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings - Maya Angelou
- Fear of Flying – Erica Jong
- The Bell Jar - Sylvia Plath
- Where the Wild Things Are – Maurice Sendak
- Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret - Judy Blume
I have missed many classics because I read alot of true crime trash and other short attention span books with random facts. I haven’t been devoting time to books lately, but here are some that I want to read:
- The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter - Carson McCullers
- Wise Blood - Flannery O’Connor
- The Sound and The Fury - William Faulkner
- Lolita - Vladimir Nabokov
- Tobacco Road - Erskine Caldwell
