I just thought I would share with you a few books that have made a lasting impression on me over the years. Some books that I sometimes still talk about for various reasons. I have read many books, some I remember - some I don't. I feel bad when I can't remember the contents of a book, it might not be that the book was bad, just that it didn't make a lasting (forever) impression. Which not every book can (at least I don't think so). Well, here it goes:
1. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austin
2. Watchers by Dean Koontz
3. Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake
4. Lady Midnight by Cassandra Clare
5. The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
6. Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon
7. Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi
What books have made a lasting impression on you?
I am a Shatter Me and Everything, Everything fan. I really liked the way Yoon tells a story, and I cannot wait to get more from her.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed Pride and Prejudice. The Harry Potter books have really made an impression on me - so many good themes.
ReplyDeleteI read Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austin maybe 10 times and every time I find something new and exciting
ReplyDeleteI read Pride and Prejudice for the 2nd time not that long ago and was surprised how much I enjoyed it. And I'm intrigued to see Anna Dressed in Blood on your list. That's on my audio list for next month so you have me curious!
ReplyDeleteHeard of half of these, surprisingly haven't read some! I will check them out. Good shares
