So here's my top 10 Books I'd reread:
- On the Road by Jack Kerouac. There wasn't anything I didn't like about this semi-autobiographical journey of a book. Amazing.
- Like Water for Chocolate by Laura Esquivel. I read this book as a Sophomore in High School and was so moved by the main character's emotion. I can only imagine what it'd bring out in me as an adult.
- Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien. I think I skipped a lot of pages in this epic, but it deserves a better, more thorough read.
- The Winter of Our Discontent by John Steinbeck. It's not my favorite Steinbeck novel, but it's the one that made me really think.
- The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger. Please don't see this movie, it's SO bad in comparison to this book.
- The Thorn Birds by Colleen McCullough. I just finished this one about 2 weeks ago and I'm already thinking about rereading it. It spans so much time & so many intersecting stories.......
- Diet for a New America by John Robins. When I first read this, it was to hopefully understand the choices that some family members were making and I didn't take it seriously. I think I'm in a place where it would really sink in now.
- The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success by Deepak Chopra. Here's another one that I read as a teenager and although I know it had an impact, I think if I read it now it might really be life-changing.
- Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte. I LOVE this book. It's probably a little sick the way that I love Heathcliff, but I've always been a sucker for a slightly twisted soul. The bad boy that can only be saved by love, ha.
- Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen. Sometimes when you think you're running away, you're really just running towards something better.
I really like your list. I would really like to reread Like Water for Chocolate as well, but I always forget about it.
