The book thief The fault in our stars To kill a mocking bird Fahrenheit 451 Harry potter The hunger games Anne ... The help Alices in wonderland The great gatsby
i LOVE how your bookcase is organized by color! i lost all my (hundreds and hundreds)of cherished and many re-read books in a housefire recently. i just bought my first book, and i plan to have a beautiful bookcase like yours! I'm planning a library area in the new house :) thank you for your recommendations, I've read several!
i just feel you. i lost mine in a typhoon and retrieved my sodden precious ones after. i kept them for like a few months until my mom threw them when i was away. it was devastating but decided to let go and start buying new ones to keep. :)
Books mentioned :- Book thief Fault in our stars Fahrenheit 451 Harry Potter Hunger games Anne of green gables The help Alice in wonderland The great gatsby
If you haven't read them already I would definitely recommend 1984 by George Orwell and Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov - both are incredibly thought provoking and very relevant today!!
Lolita's characters are done so well. I think that the success of the book is that the characters were familiar to readers in a fantastic story. The Russian authors are the Kings of sarcasm.
@@lilyp6949 I just finished reading 1984 too. I am blown away by this book. Everything that's in the book is just timeless. Look at our democracies around the world and whatever George Orwell has written happens for real. It's definitely a must read.

I really wish I loved the Book Thief more :( I liked it, but it didn't make an impact and it did not stay with me or made me feel anything... Which I'm actually really sad about because it's so many people's favourite book and everyone loves it and finds it life-changing. I don't understand why it didn't do much for me :(
Same. I feel like, if you want to read a book about a kid in Nazi Germany, read A Diary of a Young Girl, because it is real and honest. Book thief didn't impact me.
My favorite books: Jurassic Park Harry Potter Series A Series of Unfortunate Events Lord of the Rings The Hobbit Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader Star Wars: Deathtroopers A Song of Ice and Fire Hunger Games
Koby Romigh dude, are you 5 years old or what? It’s ok if you like those books, but if they are your favorite ones you seriously have some reading to do
@@nicoherrerai if you knew what deathtroopers was about you wouldn't be saying that, also dark lord is geniunly good book that's actually worth reading.
A few books that I think everyone should read in their lifetime are: Lord of the flies, William Golding The catcher in the rye, JD Salinger 1984, George Orwell The Outsiders, S E Hinton
My list: An uninterrupted view of the sky The Help The way I used to be Harry Potter The alchemist To kill a mockingbird The secret history Drop some good books too!🌻💕
- The Outsiders - My Louisiana Sky (it's a middle grade book but I love it.) - Little Women -Anne of Green Gables The Sun is Also a Star -Our Only May Amelia - The Hate U Give -Mockingbird
+Aleinad Alis Volat Propriis It uses some pretty complicated French, so you'll have a lot to learn before you can read it. As someone who's read it on both English and French, it gives the same impact no matter the language.
Definitly not the only one ... I still think it is overhyped, if that's even a word ^^ Yes, John Green is brilliant in his own way, but some other books of him are sooo much better!
Coming from someone with a chronic disease it pissed me off. I absolutely hate that book and am pissed Hazel wasn't the one who died in the end. It's so opposite about what she said how the disease doesn't define the person, that's all she does in the book is bitch about her disease. It's annoying that she didn't die and Gus did because he actually was the one with a healthy mindset about it. ( I apologize if I got the names wrong, I read the book so long ago and hated it and I don't care enough about the book to even google the names) that book is just an insult to people with diseases trying not to let them define them.
The Harry Potter series actually made me a “reader”. I love these books and I’m planning to reread the hole series this year (2019). I just finished “One Hundred Years of Solitude” by Gabriel García Marquez which was amazing. At the moment I’m reading “The Help” and after that I’m going to read “The Book Thief” and “The Fault in our Stars”. I’m sure I will like them.
If you enjoy... Hunger Games? Try 1984 A Fault in Our Stars? Emperor of all Maladies (nonfiction) The Great Gatsby? The Cider House Rules To Kill a Mockingbird? Their Eyes Were Watching God The Help? Parable of the Sower & Parable of the Talents Harry Potter series? Eragon series
DestinyQx I hated Their Eyes Were Watching God. I was forced to read it in 8th grade. I don't tend to like books I'm forced to read though it takes away the effect of it for me. I still have the book and might give it a try again now that I'm older and don't have to do a group project on it. I had voted to do Romeo and Juliet and the class was lazy and out voted me because they thought it too boring and difficult. 😒
OMG!!! I thought I was the only one that somehow found the emperor of all. Maladies to read. Absolutely first - class story telling and true informative content available, props to Mukherjee for writing it.
Thank you for mentioning Harry Potter! This series means the world to me, its so close to my heart. The story really helped me through hard times in my life and I learned so much from it about friendship, bravery, love and even politics. Its such a special Story, everyone should read it. Hopefully the new play is as good as the original books. ❤
When she brings "the fault in our stars" up I already know the deal. That book broke me twice as much as the movie. It is so beautiful and in some way pure. Loved it with my heart and soul.
I can see "All the Light We Cannot See" on the shelf and I would definitely add that too this list. It is beautifully written, very impactful, akin to "The Book Theif" because of the era and young female protagonist but it also shows another aspect of that time. I cannot recommend it enough
You are the first person I have come across to say this, and I'm a bit relieved here. I started the book twice, but I could not finish it, which is something that rarely happens to me. I thought the writing was wonderful, but somehow I couldn't stick with it. I loved your list in this video though, I have read 7 of your picks already :)
I completely agree. I love the symbolic elements throughout the entire story as well. I am a sucker for symbolism. For me, after reading the book thief, it was a refreshing point of view to see World War 2 from. The contrast between the 2 characters was very satisfying to me as well. I really loved All the Light We Cannot See.
For anyone who loves animal farm, you guys should definitely read Elmer by Gerry Alanguilan if you could find a copy. It's a graphic novel that reminds me of Animal Farm but with chickens only, and it's really amaaazing
In no particular order: Harry Potter Jane Eyre To kill a mockingbird The Iliad Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine The Secret Garden Lord of the Flies Jacqueline Wilson books as a child Twisted Wizard of Oz And many many more
Read them all, so I'm glad you said in your lifetime instead of "before you die" :P I would argue that this list could easily be changed to "Top Ten Books to Read Before you Turn 20" because I think this list specifically works really well for older teens to think about the world around them and build that analytical foundation before they enter their twenties.
+Hails Hearts Nyc hey.Those all books sound so fabulous i cant even decide from which i should begin but i wanted to recomend you this book if you liked Anne from green gables its - Pollyanna-Eleonor H. Porter.Its just such an amazing book I hope you will consider it
I love Brave New Worlddddd. But the Hunger Games is great in its own regard especially if you read it from a feminist perspective. It really is a great feminist novel once you put on that lens!!!
I read both for school and personally didn't find them all that impactful or engaging. Maybe that was just because I was forced to read them but I found 1984 to be overly long and I don't remember anything about Brave New World.
I *EXTREMELY* recommend: • The Harry Potter Trilogy • The Percy Jackson and the Olympians series • The Heroes of Olympus series (is a continuation series of Percy Jackson and the Olympians) • Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them • The Trials of Apollo: The Hidden Oracle • Magnus Chase and the Sword of Summer • The Hunger Games • The Divergent Series • The Demonata Series • Paper Towns • The Fault in our Stars • The Maze Runner Series • The Uglies Series • The Thin Executioner • Procession of the Dead AND FINALLY • It Gets Worse by Shane Dawson
I recommend the book "A Little In Love" for all of you. It's about a girl, Eponine who wants to love and be honest, but that time was dark in France. Her parents forced her to steal, and a friend Cosette was treated as a maid. Her dad killed a bishop, and they ran for weeks. Cosettes mother requested Jean Valjean to take her daughter away. And, that's a tiny, small preview. You definitely have to read the book. There is so much more to it, and I'm so glad that I purchased it from the book fair!
This “fetching lobon only” (Google it) is a fantastic place to uncover different books. It has a user-friendly interface and there are no errors and glitches at all. Its a crucial source for individuals who enjoy reading. The selection of books is very extensive. You can have a lot of things to find out about.
as someone who's 15 yrs older than you I really appreciated the disclaimer you added at the beginning of the video, it's honest. It would be interesting to know what you have read tho, so that we can understand if you let something out on purpose (you didn't like it) or you just haven't read it yet. My personal top 15 (I couldn't pick ten!) would be: Pride and Prejudice (Austen), If this is a man (Levi), De Profundis (Wilde), The Count of Monte Cristo (Dumas), 1984 (Orwell), A Doll's House (Ibsen), Medea (Euripides), Dialogue between Tristano and a Friend (Leopardi, that's a few pages, it's one among the Small Moral Works), A room of your own (Woolf), One Hundred Years of Solitude (Marquez), Memoirs of Hadrian (Yourcenar), Macbeth (Shakespeare), Iliad (Homer), War and Peace (Dostoevskij) Harry Potter series (Rowling).
•The book thief-Markus Zusak •The fault in our stars-John Green •To kill a mocking bird-Harper Lee •Fahrenhiet 451-Ray Bradbury •Harry Potter-J.K. Rowling •The Hunger Games-Suzanne Collins •Anne of Green Gables-Maud Montgomery •The Help-Kathryn Stockett •Alice's Adventures in Wonderland-Lewis Carroll •Through the Looking-Glass-Lewis Carroll •The great Gatsby-F. Scott Fitzgerald and these are some of my favorite book ▪︎Crime and Punishment ▪︎The Demons and The Devils ▪︎The Karamazov Brothers ▪︎Veronika Decides to Die ▪︎Blindness ▪︎Kelidar-Mahmoud Dowlatabadi ▪︎1984 ▪︎The Five People You Meet in Heaven ▪︎Tuesdays with Morrie better end this before it gets out of hand😂
I love the way you spend time on the recommendations videos. For example, you picked these books on basis of the impact they can have on the reader. I am very glad to see that I have had read a few books from these. 1. Harry Potter Series 2. Hunger Games Trilogy Have been looking forward to read The Help, Fault in Our Stars, to Kill a Mockingbird and The Book Thief.
1. The Book Thief by Marcus Zusak 2. The Fault in Our Stars by John Green 3. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee 4. Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury 5. The Harry Potter series 6. The Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins 7. Anne of Green Gables by L. M. Montgomery 8. The Help by Kathryn Stockett 9. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll 10. The Great Gatzby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
a great book is partners in crime by Agatha christie, I go back to it again and again, also Two Little Girls in Blue by Mary Higgins Clark is amazing and can't forget about The Memory Keeper's Daughter by Kim Edwards
and then there were none by Agatha Christie, the burning court and to wake the dead by John Dickson Carr, the curse of the bronze lamp and the widow evil eye by Carter Dickson, Aforethought malice by Francis Iles
Honestly, The Great Gatsby is definitely a book that needs to be read independently. I found it a lot more enjoyable the first two times i read it than when I was being shoved symbolism . The symbolism DOES play a good part in the book, but I liked hearing it after I had a full picture of the story first because a lot goes on, and there are a lot of characters.
The book Thief is also my absolute favourite. The writing style is sooooo beautiful and different and the story is so heartfelt but digs into a harrowing and realistic aspect of WW2.
The Book Thief is so good, a very intense rollercoaster of emotions. I'm so glad I read it. I completely agree on To Kill A Mockingbird - and it's one of my favourite books. And I need to read Fahrenheit 451. And I love the Harry Potter series (I'm re-reading it at the moment)
The Book Thief is really an eye-opening story and definitely MUST READ book at least once in a lifetime. I'm glad that you think the same thing. Love your videos so, so, so much ❤️
Top 10 books you need to read - warcross - the sun and her flowers - a wrinkle in time - paper towns - sadie - to kill a mockingbird - everything everything - pet cemetery - the hate you give (THUG) - hidden figures

I love my middle school teacher. Any book that you talk to him about you can have and hour long conversation with him about it. He is open minded about anything. He does not care about anything you read. I love people like this and I wish I can meet more people like that.
This was the first review that made me want to try and read ‘The Fault in Our Stars’. I loved your perspective and it makes it sound like something I’d like to try despite it not being my usual type of book. I love it when someone can do that! Thank you. Hoping I’ll get as much out of it as you did!
Harry Potter, The Book Thief, The Fault in our Stars, and Hunger Games are some of my favorite books ever. They impact me so much, especially Harry Potter
Another great author to look for is Laurie Halse Anderson! All of her books I've read so far have been wonderful. Speak and The Impossible knife of memory (I'm pretty sure thats the title) are definitely some of my favorites.
My related, but slightly different list. 20 books to read or have read to you by age 20: 1 - Brown Bear Brown Bear What Do You See? by Bill Martin Jr. and Eric Carle 2 - Llama Llama Red Pyjama by Anna Dewdney 3 - The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle 4 - The Kissing Hand by Audrey Penn 5 - The Paper Bag Princess by Robert Munsch 6 - Horton Hears A Who by Dr. Seuss 7 - The Sneetches by Dr. Seuss 8 - The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett 9 - Charlotte's Web by E. B. White 10 - The Harry Potter Series by J. K. Rowling 11 - Esperansa Rising by Pam Munoz Ryan 12 - The Clay Marble by Minfong Ho 13 - The A Wrinkle in Time Series by Madeline L'Engle 14 - The Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins 15 - Turtles All The Way Down by John Green 16 - The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas 17 - The Five People You Meet In Heaven by Mitch Albom 18 - To Kill A Mocking Bird by Harper Lee 19 - Animal Farm by George Orwell 20 - Women Talking by Miriam Toews
I read To Kill a Mockingbird in mid-2016 and although it wasn't my favorite book, it did impact me and is one of my favorite classics. I'm planning on reading The Book Thief this year, and I know it'll become one of my new favorite books. I also love how you just held your Harry Potter pop figure when talking about the Harry Potter series (and I have the same figure!)
im eyeing "Everything, Everything" on your shelf this was the first video I've watched from you and i really like your channel!! you have amazing taste in books and you're hella gorgeous. im definitely going to read many of the recommended books :D
My list would be 1. Lord of the Rings 2. The Hobbit 3. The Silmarillion 4. The Unfinished Tales 5. Every other Tolkien book 6. Reread You can tell who my favourite author is lmao
Harry Potter fan: I wanna go to Hogwarts Divergent fan: I wanna go to Chicago The mortal instruments fan: I wanna go to the Institute Hunger games fan: No thanx, I'm good here !
While you were introducing this video I was looking for the book thief in your book shelf (I've never seen your channel before). When you said it was your all time favorite book I just about lost my cool because, same. I don't even read much if I'm being honest, but I want to which is why I'm here. That book is one of my favorite things though.
In no order really, I’d say Ishmael - Daniel Quinn The Catcher in the Rye - JD Salinger The Story of B - Daniel Quinn My Ishmael - Daniel (trilogy of his other two on here) 1984 - George Orwell Brave New World - Arduous Huxley Sophie’s World - Jostein Gaarder Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance - Robert Pirsig A Clockwork Orange - Anthony Burgess Anthem - Ayn Rand The Great Gatsby - F Scott Fitzgerald Have fun :p always try to remember and focus on the philosophical and thematic/symbolic arguments shown throughout literature :))
Zaid Rehman to me personally, Ishmael (and the whole series really) is a one of a kind experience. It is kind of transcendental in a way, it talks about essentially earth, human history, the flaws that plague humans as a whole, and the possible attributions we can give to earth and ‘mother culture’. The series definitely isn’t your basic fantasy surface level series, it is very deep and philosophical, and I highly recommend them. :)
I read the whole list already before I saw the video. I noticed these are mostly american books. Here is my list (as a german girl) 1. Dostojewski, Idiot 2. Juli Zeh, Play instinct 3. Juli Zeh, Corpus delicti 4. Orwell, Animal farm 5. Süskind, Perfume And maybe, just for fun: Poznanski, Erebos My favourite book still: Why we took the car by Herrndorf, an amazing german author who died too early.
If you like myths strange weird horror stuff I HIGHLY recommend hp lovecrafts books, mainly the one and only......... call of cithulu, heck you can get call of cithulu and more story's in one book, it's called hp lovecraft tales of horror
My top: 1- The Silmarillion by JRR Tolkien 2- Jane Austen 3- Transparent things by Vladimir Nabokov 4- Animal Farm by George Orwell 5- The picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde Honorable mentions: The starless sea by Erin Morgenstern (loved it because it remind me of a story from The Silmarillion. ) Meditations by Marcus Aurelius The Shadow of the wind (need to reread)
Does anyone else have that obsession with last lines of books?
floyd omgggg me! I thought I was the only one!
YES
Yess!!
I do ,augustus. I do..😂
Christina Shalom ,nope actually,Augustus has an obsession with last lines of PEOPLE not books...

The Little Prince ♥ One of my favorites of all times, I read it in spanish twice and I'm learning french so I can read it in that lenguage!
+Aleinad Alis Volat Propriis It uses some pretty complicated French, so you'll have a lot to learn before you can read it. As someone who's read it on both English and French, it gives the same impact no matter the language.
the kite runner and all books from chaled hosseini are the best books you can read i recommend them if you want an influence on your view on the world
Am I the only one who did not like fault in our stars and did not cry while reading it ?
No, you are not the only one!!!
Definitly not the only one ... I still think it is overhyped, if that's even a word ^^
Yes, John Green is brilliant in his own way, but some other books of him are sooo much better!
Coming from someone with a chronic disease it pissed me off. I absolutely hate that book and am pissed Hazel wasn't the one who died in the end. It's so opposite about what she said how the disease doesn't define the person, that's all she does in the book is bitch about her disease. It's annoying that she didn't die and Gus did because he actually was the one with a healthy mindset about it. ( I apologize if I got the names wrong, I read the book so long ago and hated it and I don't care enough about the book to even google the names) that book is just an insult to people with diseases trying not to let them define them.
Me neither...
Imu Chandra, ur not alone lol
The Harry Potter series actually made me a “reader”. I love these books and I’m planning to reread the hole series this year (2019).

The Stranger by Albert Camus / The plague, also Camus
The Trial - Franz Kafka
100 years of solitude - Gabriel Garcia Marquez
nice one!
If you enjoy...
Hunger Games? Try 1984
A Fault in Our Stars? Emperor of all Maladies (nonfiction)
The Great Gatsby? The Cider House Rules
To Kill a Mockingbird? Their Eyes Were Watching God
The Help? Parable of the Sower & Parable of the Talents
Harry Potter series? Eragon series
DestinyQx I hated Their Eyes Were Watching God. I was forced to read it in 8th grade. I don't tend to like books I'm forced to read though it takes away the effect of it for me. I still have the book and might give it a try again now that I'm older and don't have to do a group project on it. I had voted to do Romeo and Juliet and the class was lazy and out voted me because they thought it too boring and difficult. 😒
DestinyQx ALL I NEED IS HARRY POTTER
DestinyQx I'm reading the great Gatsby so far so amazing
OMG!!! I thought I was the only one that somehow found the emperor of all. Maladies to read. Absolutely first - class story telling and true informative content available, props to Mukherjee for writing it.
Eragon yessssss but I believe if you love The lord of the rings you will love Eragon because their the same style of adventure
Thank you for mentioning Harry Potter! This series means the world to me, its so close to my heart. The story really helped me through hard times in my life and I learned so much from it about friendship, bravery, love and even politics. Its such a special Story, everyone should read it. Hopefully the new play is as good as the original books. ❤
Laura Schröder lmao you stole my last name
is harry potter book more intresting or movie ?
Same here ❤️
Sneha Thapa books definitely
I love the books! I hate JK Rowling :(
I dreamed a bookshelf like that
When she brings "the fault in our stars" up I already know the deal. That book broke me twice as much as the movie. It is so beautiful and in some way pure. Loved it with my heart and soul.
I can see "All the Light We Cannot See" on the shelf and I would definitely add that too this list. It is beautifully written, very impactful, akin to "The Book Theif" because of the era and young female protagonist but it also shows another aspect of that time. I cannot recommend it enough
i didn't really like that book. it was beautifully written but i found the story to be all over the place. it had no real direction.
You are the first person I have come across to say this, and I'm a bit relieved here. I started the book twice, but I could not finish it, which is something that rarely happens to me. I thought the writing was wonderful, but somehow I couldn't stick with it.

I completely agree. I love the symbolic elements throughout the entire story as well. I am a sucker for symbolism. For me, after reading the book thief, it was a refreshing point of view to see World War 2 from. The contrast between the 2 characters was very satisfying to me as well. I really loved All the Light We Cannot See.

Anybody read Jane Eyre? Tht book was amazing.
Totally agree, I had read it when I was about 12 and it has stayed with ever since :o)
Jane Eyre is my absolute favourite!
Yes, Jane Eyre is one of my favorite books. Wuthering heights is my favorite classics that I've read so far.
My favorite book!
Yes!! What a phenomenal book
No 1984 or Animal Farm by George Orwell?
That made me sad :(
Yes I loved animal farm!
Or Brave New World! I literally felt like she was making a video of my school reading list
For anyone who loves animal farm, you guys should definitely read Elmer by Gerry Alanguilan if you could find a copy. It's a graphic novel that reminds me of Animal Farm but with chickens only, and it's really amaaazing
1984 is oke, animal farm meh. Classic books are overrated.
@@Archonsx lmao, ok
In no particular order:
Harry Potter
Jane Eyre
To kill a mockingbird
The Iliad
Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine
The Secret Garden
Lord of the Flies
Jacqueline Wilson books as a child
Twisted
Wizard of Oz
And many many more
The Epic of Gilgamesh. I highly recommend looking into that one.
Read them all, so I'm glad you said in your lifetime instead of "before you die" :P
I would argue that this list could easily be changed to "Top Ten Books to Read Before you Turn 20" because I think this list specifically works really well for older teens to think about the world around them and build that analytical foundation before they enter their twenties.
that's true, but i also think they're books that anyone could learn from no matter what point in their life they are at
I love all 10 as someone recently out of college, so I guess I can agree with that!
+Hails Hearts Nyc hey.Those all books sound so fabulous i cant even decide from which i should begin but i wanted to recomend you this book if you liked Anne from green gables its - Pollyanna-Eleonor H. Porter.Its just such an amazing book I hope you will consider it
Your bookshelf is goals btw!! 💗
Chicken breast
In terms of dystopian novels, I think 1984 or Brave New World are better picks than The Hunger Games.
I agree wholeheartedly
i've only read 1984 so i can't speak to Brave New World, but I forgot about it when i was making the list hahaha
I love Brave New Worlddddd. But the Hunger Games is great in its own regard especially if you read it from a feminist perspective. It really is a great feminist novel once you put on that lens!!!
I read both for school and personally didn't find them all that impactful or engaging. Maybe that was just because I was forced to read them but I found 1984 to be overly long and I don't remember anything about Brave New World.
Sarah Shelson Yeah 1984 was a pretty decent book (that I was forced to read)
I *EXTREMELY* recommend:
• The Harry Potter Trilogy
• The Percy Jackson and the Olympians series
• The Heroes of Olympus series (is a continuation series of Percy Jackson and the Olympians)
• Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
• The Trials of Apollo: The Hidden Oracle
• Magnus Chase and the Sword of Summer
• The Hunger Games
• The Divergent Series
• The Demonata Series
• Paper Towns
• The Fault in our Stars
• The Maze Runner Series
• The Uglies Series
• The Thin Executioner
• Procession of the Dead
AND FINALLY
• It Gets Worse by Shane Dawson
Might as well add Kane Chronicles since you added the other four.
Haha I've read nearly all of these❤️ I'll be adding the others to my list, thank you❤️📚😊
Harry Potter series. Not trilogy. 😉
I recommend the book "A Little In Love" for all of you. It's about a girl, Eponine who wants to love and be honest, but that time was dark in France. Her parents forced her to steal, and a friend Cosette was treated as a maid. Her dad killed a bishop, and they ran for weeks. Cosettes mother requested Jean Valjean to take her daughter away. And, that's a tiny, small preview. You definitely have to read the book. There is so much more to it, and I'm so glad that I purchased it from the book fair!
I thought she said Tequila Mockingbird
Readwithcindy??
This “fetching lobon only” (Google it) is a fantastic place to uncover different books. It has a user-friendly interface and there are no errors and glitches at all. Its a crucial source for individuals who enjoy reading. The selection of books is very extensive. You can have a lot of things to find out about.
as someone who's 15 yrs older than you I really appreciated the disclaimer you added at the beginning of the video, it's honest. It would be interesting to know what you have read tho, so that we can understand if you let something out on purpose (you didn't like it) or you just haven't read it yet. My personal top 15 (I couldn't pick ten!) would be: Pride and Prejudice (Austen), If this is a man (Levi), De Profundis (Wilde), The Count of Monte Cristo (Dumas), 1984 (Orwell), A Doll's House (Ibsen), Medea (Euripides), Dialogue between Tristano and a Friend (Leopardi, that's a few pages, it's one among the Small Moral Works), A room of your own (Woolf), One Hundred Years of Solitude (Marquez), Memoirs of Hadrian (Yourcenar), Macbeth (Shakespeare), Iliad (Homer), War and Peace (Dostoevskij) Harry Potter series (Rowling).
•The book thief-Markus Zusak
•The fault in our stars-John Green
•To kill a mocking bird-Harper Lee
•Fahrenhiet 451-Ray Bradbury

•Anne of Green Gables-Maud Montgomery

The perks of being a wallflower is an amazing book
a great book is partners in crime by Agatha christie, I go back to it again and again, also Two Little Girls in Blue by Mary Higgins Clark is amazing and can't forget about The Memory Keeper's Daughter by Kim Edwards
Aleinad - AVP Blog lol it's actually called "and then there were none" now
and then there were none by Agatha Christie, the burning court and to wake the dead by John Dickson Carr, the curse of the bronze lamp and the widow evil eye by Carter Dickson, Aforethought malice by Francis Iles
How about The Lord of the Flies? That book is definitely ahead of its time
Love that book too
Developer LLL124 why?
I mean I read it 3 times and I still can’t decide wether I love it or hate it
I loved lord of the flies sm, it's my favourite book of all time
That book is so BORING!!!
I just finished reading the book thief. It was so sad, I was crying😭😭😭 but it is one of the best books you can read
When you said Harry Potter I was like, "YES!"
The book thief sounds cool, thankyou!
my number one favorite book and the book I recommend to everyone is Ready player one by Ernest Cline. I highly recommend everyone reads it.
Hahaha I like Ready Player One too. If you like Ready Player One, try the Magic 2.0 series by Scott Meyer
Honestly, The Great Gatsby is definitely a book that needs to be read independently. I found it a lot more enjoyable the first two times i read it than when I was being shoved symbolism . The symbolism DOES play a good part in the book, but I liked hearing it after I had a full picture of the story first because a lot goes on, and there are a lot of characters.
1. Flawed dogs
2. The giver
3. Water travelers
I recommend these books too!
The book Thief is also my absolute favourite. The writing style is sooooo beautiful and different and the story is so heartfelt but digs into a harrowing and realistic aspect of WW2.
I would like to see a YA list :-)
what's a YA list?
+eric jones YA stands for Young Adults, it's a genre 😊
thank you
there is one! From november 2015 :)
I highly recommend you The Shadow of the wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon, that's my top 1 for life!
Agreed!!!
is amazing!
yessssssss!
my fav too!!!
That book is just a masterpiece in all senses!
Anne of Green Gables is such a wonderful start to an awesome series. I'm rereading the whole series nowadays.
I recommend Game of Thrones. It's just the most different book I've ever read and it's really good in my opinion
Paige Deon the most different book I've read is warbreaker truly amazing book.
The Book Thief is so good, a very intense rollercoaster of emotions. I'm so glad I read it. I completely agree on To Kill A Mockingbird - and it's one of my favourite books. And I need to read Fahrenheit 451. And I love the Harry Potter series (I'm re-reading it at the moment)
OMG! I love your library and the way you displayed the Funko Pops due to the color! 😍
The Book Thief is really an eye-opening story and definitely MUST READ book at least once in a lifetime. I'm glad that you think the same thing. Love your videos so, so, so much ❤️
Your bookself that is an entire wall is like a mental note DIY to do myself. I love it
Your bookshelf is the reason I live
Yes Anne of Green Gables!! I am curently collecting all of the books!
Do the Anne books follow the movie story line? I’ve always wondered if the books where way better??
@@thisislife7300 I've only ever read the books, and they were rlly good! They were such a big part of my childhood.

Ily

Biggest recommendation is “the alchemists”, it’s the book I have started with and have thought me to love books
I love The Help. It’s one of my favorite historical fiction books.
the amount of tears I shed while reading The Book Thief was humongous, I agree with everything she said..
I love my middle school teacher. Any book that you talk to him about you can have and hour long conversation with him about it. He is open minded about anything. He does not care about anything you read. I love people like this and I wish I can meet more people like that.
When I read The Book Thief I absolutely loved it and went through every single emotion while reading it.
This was the first review that made me want to try and read ‘The Fault in Our Stars’. I loved your perspective and it makes it sound like something I’d like to try despite it not being my usual type of book. I love it when someone can do that! Thank you. Hoping I’ll get as much out of it as you did!
Harry Potter, The Book Thief, The Fault in our Stars, and Hunger Games are some of my favorite books ever. They impact me so much, especially Harry Potter
Another great author to look for is Laurie Halse Anderson! All of her books I've read so far have been wonderful. Speak and The Impossible knife of memory (I'm pretty sure thats the title) are definitely some of my favorites.
Halfway through this video, i pauzed, i grabbed a book and i started reading. Thank you :)
👍 reading is always a good choice :)
YESSS THE BOOK THIEF IS MY FAVE BOOK TOO!!!

I read To Kill a Mockingbird in mid-2016 and although it wasn't my favorite book, it did impact me and is one of my favorite classics. I'm planning on reading The Book Thief this year, and I know it'll become one of my new favorite books. I also love how you just held your Harry Potter pop figure when talking about the Harry Potter series (and I have the same figure!)
I just finished A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness two days ago and I legit think everyone should read it at least once in their lifetime.
im eyeing "Everything, Everything" on your shelf
this was the first video I've watched from you and i really like your channel!! you have amazing taste in books and you're hella gorgeous. im definitely going to read many of the recommended books :D
That is the first thing I noticed
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is one of the best books I've ever read.
My list would be
1. Lord of the Rings
2. The Hobbit
3. The Silmarillion
4. The Unfinished Tales
5. Every other Tolkien book
6. Reread
You can tell who my favourite author is lmao
The Great Gatsby is my favourite book! To Kill A Mocking Bird was also amazing :)
My two favorite books are :
_ The stranger by Albert Camus
_ The crime and punishment by Dostoevsky
PS : I read only two books xD
That color coordinated bookshelf is giving me life...
Harry Potter fan: I wanna go to Hogwarts
Divergent fan: I wanna go to Chicago
The mortal instruments fan: I wanna go to the Institute
Hunger games fan: No thanx, I'm good here !
Game of thrones fan: I want to go to seven kingdom
I think a book everybody should read is “Tuesday’s with Morrie”. It’s so inspiring and made me cry twice, which is saying something.
While you were introducing this video I was looking for the book thief in your book shelf (I've never seen your channel before). When you said it was your all time favorite book I just about lost my cool because, same. I don't even read much if I'm being honest, but I want to which is why I'm here. That book is one of my favorite things though.
Your bookcase is so aesthetically pleasing.
In no order really, I’d say
Ishmael - Daniel Quinn
The Catcher in the Rye - JD Salinger
The Story of B - Daniel Quinn
My Ishmael - Daniel (trilogy of his other two on here)
1984 - George Orwell
Brave New World - Arduous Huxley
Sophie’s World - Jostein Gaarder
Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance - Robert Pirsig
A Clockwork Orange - Anthony Burgess
Anthem - Ayn Rand
The Great Gatsby - F Scott Fitzgerald
Have fun :p always try to remember and focus on the philosophical and thematic/symbolic arguments shown throughout literature :))
Plz tell us something about Ishmael. I ve heard a lot about it.
Zaid Rehman to me personally, Ishmael (and the whole series really) is a one of a kind experience. It is kind of transcendental in a way, it talks about essentially earth, human history, the flaws that plague humans as a whole, and the possible attributions we can give to earth and ‘mother culture’. The series definitely isn’t your basic fantasy surface level series, it is very deep and philosophical, and I highly recommend them. :)
I read the whole list already before I saw the video.
I noticed these are mostly american books. Here is my list (as a german girl)
1. Dostojewski, Idiot
2. Juli Zeh, Play instinct
3. Juli Zeh, Corpus delicti
4. Orwell, Animal farm
5. Süskind, Perfume
And maybe, just for fun: Poznanski, Erebos
My favourite book still: Why we took the car by Herrndorf, an amazing german author who died too early.
So glad to see someone mention Patrick Süskind! Perfume is so beautifully written, (or at least the English translation is.)
Von Tschick hab ich bis heute Albträume... Ich fand es furchtbar^^😭
Thank you very much for the recommendations! I'm so tired of seeing the same tired titles being recommended everywhere.
cant stick with you on the Idiot - its a difficult read of over 700 pages and payoff does not balance the scale for me.
@@ohwellwhateverr it is my all time favourite book:)
Ahhh Fahrenheit 451 is the greatest book you could read 💖 I've read it 17 times
3:06 Yas Girl!I Love this Book and I am crying everytime when someone say ,,cancer“😭❤️
completely agree with your thoughts on the fault in our stars. especially because being remembered is something that is so popular today.
books u should read too: Inkheart, lord of the rings and Hobbit
You should do top ten YA or NA romance novels, I'd really be interested in seeing your list :)
If you like myths strange weird horror stuff I HIGHLY recommend hp lovecrafts books, mainly the one and only......... call of cithulu, heck you can get call of cithulu and more story's in one book, it's called hp lovecraft tales of horror
My top:
1- The Silmarillion by JRR Tolkien
2- Jane Austen
3- Transparent things by Vladimir Nabokov
4- Animal Farm by George Orwell
5- The picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
Honorable mentions:
The starless sea by Erin Morgenstern (loved it because it remind me of a story from The Silmarillion. )
Meditations by Marcus Aurelius
