I have read:
Jane Eyre - Charlotte Bronte
Harry Potter series - JK Rowling
To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee
Nineteen Eighty Four - George Orwell
Alice in Wonderland - Lewis Carroll
Anna Karenina - Leo Tolstoy
Chronicles of Narnia - CS Lewis
The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe - CS Lewis
Memoirs of a Geisha - Arthur Golden
Animal Farm - George Orwell
One Hundred Years of Solitude - Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Brave New World - Aldous Huxley
Of Mice and Men - John Steinbeck
Ulysses - James Joyce
Heart of Darkness - Joseph Conrad
Hamlet - William Shakespeare
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - Roald Dahl
I agree that Frankenstein, Beowulf, Dante's Inferno, and Diary of Anne Frank should be on there. I also think The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer and Gravity's Rainbow by Thomas Pynchon should be on there.

Have you seen any of the films he wrote/directed? Like Westworld or Looker?
They are pretty B sci-fi but you might find them interesting. Westworld has Yul Brynner which is funny because the only other role I have seen him in is The King and I.
Also, how is the novel Sphere? I have been thinking about reading it.

What are you reading?
Started almost 6 years ago · Last post over 1 year ago ·
I just started Invisible Monsters by Chuck Palahniuk. I haven't read any of his novels before but have had them recommended to me by several people. I am only on the 2nd or 3rd chapter but I am enjoying his writing style already.
