My all time favourite children’s book is How to Train Your Dragon. If I were to recommend any, it’d be the Mysterious Benedict Society. Not sure I’m in the age bracket anymore but still a very good series. I liked Us and Never Let Me Go too :smile:
i would recommend 'the bookseller of Kabul' because it's so infuriatingly oppressive against women.

Khaled Hosseini gave us some pretty amazing books. Historical fiction is one of my fav genres

I agree! I haven't got a passion for reading but his books definitely intrigued me!

I think I’ll give ‘Mysterious Benedict Society’ and ‘Never let me go’ a read. They seem promising

Aah! Humour + self-help. Will definitely give this a try 👍🏻

Mine would be The Time Traveller's Wife, turned out to be quite a tearjerker.
