Anything written by Nicolas Sparks. His work is priceless and there is nothing that compare. My favorite was A Walk to Remember... and yes there was a movie made after this, but I just didn't do the whole book justice.

Gone With the Wind, an American novel by Margaret Mitchell, was published in 1936 and won the Pulitzer Prize in 1937.


It is the story of a rebellious Georgia woman named Scarlett O'Hara and her travails with friends, family and lovers in the midst of the antebellum South, the American Civil War, and the Reconstruction period. It also tells the story of the love that blossoms between Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler.
Several components of Gone with the Wind have parallels with Margaret Mitchell's own life, suggesting her experiences provided some inspiration for the story. Mitchell's understanding of life and hardship during the Civil War, for example, came from elderly relatives and neighbors passing war stories to her generation


While Margaret Mitchell used to say that her Gone with the Wind characters were not based on real people, modern researchers have found similarities to some of the people in Mitchell's own life as well as to individuals she knew or she heard of.Rhett Butler is thought to be based on Mitchell's first husband, Red Upshaw, whom she married in 1922, but divorced after it was revealed that he was a bootlegger.

I love romance novels.

My favourites are Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, A Walk To Remember by Nicholas Spark, The Notebook by Nicholas Spark and at my age, Meg Cabot still can amuse me. I enjoyed The Boy Next Door and Every Boy's Got One (both by Meg Cabot).

Wuthering Heights by Charlotte Bronte;
Goblin Market by Christina Rossetti;
Anna Karenina by Tolstoy;


The most boring novels I have ever read were written by Margaret Atwood. She puts me to sleep. I also don't like 'Scarlet Letter.'
