I realized after writing my last post about Jane Eyre, when I mentioned that novel being one of my favorites, that I haven’t actually given a list of my favorite books. Most people can think of their favorites for the moment, or at least their top 5, but since I am such a fond reader; 5 would not do. So below is my top 25 books of my life, so far. They vary from plays and romances to science fiction and drama. Each holds a special place in my exploration of the literary world; and they are books I would recommend to anyone. So without further ado, here is the list; I hope you enjoy it!
