Must-Read BOOKS!!

What are your Must-Read books?

I have a few but I have never completely read them:

The Bible (so far neither religious nor spirtual)

The whole work of William Shakespeare. ( I love it! no time to read and too darn difficult for me, though I read a few in my native language but lost in translation.)

The Dream of Red Chamber, The Three Kingdoms, The Journey to the West, Tale of Water Margin and others. (of course in my native language)

The Classic such as Odyssey, Homer, the Republic (never read them but I will eventually)

I read 1984 a year ago. I cannot forget the last part of the book about torture.

Frankenstein is one of my favorite books.

I just finished A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Hi Muslimah,

1984 is neither a religion nor historic book. I think the fictional book is divided into three parts and Newspeak.

1984 is fiction, of course, but it is so up-to-date. the topic could be out of our time, no one would think that the book´s more than 50 years old (i think it was written somewhen in the 50s, but i´m not sure) and it shows you how the world could be one day, if we don´t change. somehow, just read it. it is a must-have
