1. Born a Crime by Trevor Noah

The memoir is excellent! Trevor was born as a crime. Black mother and a white dad – that was quite literary a crime in South Africa at that time. The book was full of humor at times and full of tragedy at others, and you do not have to be a fan of Noah’s to appreciate his life story.

9. Dragon’s Treasure (Dragons Awaken series #1) by Maya Starling

This story the story sweet, exciting, full of fun twists within the genre, but also Dragon’s Treasure was so well edited, the writing was so smooth and exciting! The cover was beautifully designed, proving that even stock photos can work if you know how to use them. It all added up to very wonderful reading experience!

The book follows a love story between a heroine and a dragon, with a prince in shiny armor as a villain. I loved the idea of making the dragon the hero, and prince the villain. It really worked well within the book. Dragon’s Treasure is a part of an unfinished book series called “Dragons Awaken” and you may be happy to hear that the sequel, Dragon’s Prize, is also available.

15. Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy

Acclaimed by many as the world’s greatest novel, Anna Karenin provides a vast panorama of contemporary life in Russia and of humanity in general. In it, Tolstoy uses his intense imaginative insight to create some of the most memorable characters in literature.

Anna is a sophisticated woman who abandons her empty existence as the wife of Karenin and turns to Count Vronsky to fulfill her passionate nature – with tragic consequences. Levin is a reflection of Tolstoy himself, often expressing the author’s own views and convictions.

Throughout, Tolstoy points no moral, merely inviting us not to judge but to watch. As Rosemary Edmonds comments, ‘He leaves the shifting patterns of the kaleidoscope to bring home the meaning of the brooding words following the title, ‘Vengeance is mine, and I will repay.

16. The Shining by Stephen King

One of the true classics of horror fiction, THE SHINING is regarded as one of Stephen King’s masterpieces.

As winter closes in and blizzards cut them off, the hotel seems to develop a life of its own. It is meant to be empty. So who is the lady in Room 217 and who are the masked guests going up and down in the elevator? And why do the hedges shaped like animals seem so alive?

Somewhere, somehow, there is an evil force in the hotel – and that, too, is beginning to shine

17. Cat’s Cradle Kurt Vonnegut

Cat’s Cradle (1963) is Vonnegut’s most ambitious novel, which put into the language terms like “wampeter”, “kerass” and “granfalloon” as well as a structured religion, Boskonism and was submitted in partial fulfillment of requirements for a Master’s Degree in anthropology, and in its sprawling compass and almost uncontrolled (and uncontrollable) invention, may be Vonnegut’s best novel.

Written contemporaneously with the Cuban missile crisis and countenancing a version of a world in the grasp of magnified human stupidity, the novel is centered on Felix Hoenikker, a chemical scientist reminiscent of Robert Oppenheimer… except that Oppenheimer was destroyed by his conscience and Hoenikker, delighting in the disastrous chemicals he has invented, has no conscience at all. Hoenikker’s “Ice 9” has the potential to convert all liquid to inert ice and thus destroy human existence; he is exiled to a remote island where Boskonism has enlisted all of its inhabitants and where religion and technology collaborate, with the help of a large cast of characters, to destroy civilization.

18. Wool (Silo series #1) by Hugh Howey

This is the story of mankind clawing for survival, of mankind on the edge. The world outside has grown unkind, the view of it limited, talk of it forbidden. But there are always those who hope, who dream. These are the dangerous people, the residents who infect others with their optimism. Their punishment is simple. They are allowed to go outside.

19. Bossypants by Tina Fey

Once in a generation, a woman comes along who changes everything. Tina Fey is not that woman, but she met that woman once and acted weird around her.

Before 30 Rock, Mean Girls and ‘Sarah Palin’, Tina Fey was just a young girl with a dream: a recurring stress dream that she was being chased through a local airport by her middle-school gym teacher. She also had a dream that one day she would be a comedian on TV. She has seen both these dreams come true.

At last, Tina Fey’s story can be told. From her youthful days as a vicious nerd to her tour of duty on Saturday Night Live; from her passionately halfhearted pursuit of physical beauty to her life as a mother eating things off the floor; from her one-sided college romance to her nearly fatal honeymoon – from the beginning of this paragraph to this final sentence.

Tina Fey reveals all and proves what we’ve all suspected: you’re no one until someone calls you bossy.
