Hey everyone! So this year, I really wanted to fall back in love with reading. I set a goal to read 12 books by the end of the year. It totally worked and I am currently at 17 completed books (will probably hit 20 by the end of Dec!). Im thinking about what goal to set next year and I would like to keep it around types of books… so what’s one book you’d tell someone they HAVE to read in their lifetime? Im currently reading a lot of fantasy but very open to lots of different genres. Help me put a few classics on the list!

    To help you with adding some classics, as a bit of a classics gal myself:

    I read the bell jar recently and loved it. My other favourite classics are: pride and prejudice, Emma, the catcher in the rye, the picture of Dorian grey, 1984, a clockwork orange, lord of the flies, letters to a young poet, to kill a mockingbird. I also like most of Shakespeare. I’ve just started Virginia Woolf ‘to the lighthouse’ and not sure if I’d recommend it as it’s not been the most engaging read so far. Next on my list are The Divine Comedy, The Iliad and Harper Lee’s sequel novel Go Set a Watchman, but I haven’t started these yet so can’t say if I’d recommend or not :)
