I read so many that this forum will not hold them.
Three Musceteers by Duma was the first one. I was 7 or 8 at the time. I adored it.
Reading was my favorite.

Lord-of-Dreams
Catcher in the Rye was sweet. So was the Welkin Weasel set. By Gary Kilworth. I, unfortunately, read the Harry Potters. Good ideas, bad writing.

Only counting the ones I read as part of the course - King Lear, Hamlet, Taming of the Shrew, The Real Inspector Hound, My Place, Snow falling on Cedars, the Colour Purple... some others.

On my own - A lot, I often was borrowing books of teachers and so forth.
