I
have always loved reading. My taste has changed over the years,
but there are some books I always come back to read over and
over again. Some give you a feeling of home, some are food for
your brain, some are escapism, some are soul-soothers. All of
them are good.
Then
there are some which are simply worth reading if you have not
yet. The list is not final, many more novels and stories will
be added.
