I'm interested in reading Mein Kampf, just to see what the madman could come up with

I'm so glad Siddhartha has been mention!! It is one of Hesse's most beautiful stories of inner peace and the search for your own meaning of life!! 😄

Okay here are my suggestions:

-Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess (seen the movie? Well, the ending is totally different in the book)
-Tales before Tolkien:The roots of Modern Fantasy (an Anthology of earlier Fantasy writers that inspired Tolkien)
-What is Art? by Leo Tolstoy
-Inferno by Dante
-Journey to the East by Herman Hesse

TERRY PRATCHETT!!! YOU ALL ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO READ DISCWORLD STORIES!!! GO DEATH!!!

Sylvia Platt - the Bell Jar

her only novel- semi autobiographical.

If you like Fantasy check out author Terry Brooks!! 😄 😄 🙂

If you like romance novels read Summer Sisters by Judy Blume (warning it is a little....graphic?)

Ender's game,ender's shadow, anything ing the ender's game universe.
Robert jordan's wheel of time.(Warning, it's long series and long books)
(I have read "interview with a vampire" but not the other ones. Got to get to them.)
Animorphs.( it's not nessesary that you read them all in order, it's a series that's not really connected to each book. Just for some relief, because it has 9 side books and 54 regular books)
Remnants and everworld are also recommended.

Northern Lights; that's the English title... Golden Compass, thats the American... the publisher's just thought that Golden Compass fitted better with the other two titles, as it has a colour and an object in it, aand they were worried that an American audience might fail to realise that the books were related to each other...

As for reccomendations.... His Dark Materials, yup... 1984 by George Orwell, The last Unicorn by Peter Beagle... and Queen of Angels and Slant by Greg Bear...

The day of the triffids (no idea who wrote it)

Day of the Triffids... written by John Wyndham, who also wrote Chocky, The Chrysalids and The Midwich Cuckoos, all of which are definitley worth a look...

I recommend:

Ricky - Ricky Tomlinsons Autobigraphy. He bares his soul in this book, His rough times and his good all make this book what it is. I wasn't a huge fan of his but after reading this I respect him hugely.

Ten Thousand Sorrows - Elizabeth Kim, A True Story about a Korean war orphan, A Harrowing Tale but a great read.

Birthday Girls - Annabelle Giles Great Fiction for women, about 6 women of different ages and social stature. Very Funny.

That's what I recommend for now...

Star Wars NJO....especially the later books in the series.
Nancy Drew and HArdy Boys supermysteris...just fun reads that take about 3 hrs.

1. John Saul
2. George Orwell

4. Dean Koontz
5. Orson Scott Card
6. Micheal Chriton
7. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle(Sherlock Homes)

A Tree Grows In Brooklyn by Betty Smith
Heroshima by John Hershy
The Great Gastby By F. Scott Fitsgerald
Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien
A walk To Remember By Nicolas Sparks
The Lovely Bones by Alice Seabold
The Maltese Falcon by Dashiel Hammett
tis it for now

aside from reccommending "the outsiders", i would also like to reccommend stephen king's "four past midnight" -> "secret window, secret garden", two past midnight.

I'm reading Beneath the Wheel by Herman Hesse, great book ✅

Just read "Mortal Engines" and "Predators Gold" by Philip Reeve... worth looking at...
