Life of Pi
Memoirs of a Geisha
The Kite Runner
The Beach
Marley and Me
Those are some of my faves!
I just finished ‘This is Paradise! My north Korean childhood’ by Hyok Kang
It is definitely worth a read! Very depressing at parts though but gives you an amazing insight into life in North Korea.
One of the reviews on the actual book state ‘An engrossing picture of a nation that remains closed to the world, aptly described as the Jurassic Park of communism’ which I think describes it perfectly.
I second Into the Wild…fantastic.
Jurassic Park is good, I imagine it’s even better when you are in the middle of the jungle somewhere afraid of being eaten by a velociraptor :).
Angels and Demons and Deception Point by Dan Brown are really awesome.
I’m currently reading The Alchemist.
Into the Wild.
Life of Pi.
A Thousand Splendid Suns.
The Elephant Whisperer.
The Beach.
I Dreamed of Africa.
If you like India then Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts is brilliant.

Yep i’m reading this at the moment. Can confirm it is gripping
cant believe no one here has mentioned “Robinson Crusoe”
Left stranded on a desert island for 30 years or so, and I personally LOVE the old english style of writing.
AMAZING book, I mean really, it had my heart beating out of its cage at the point where he sees a footprint on the beach… lol i sound such a nerd but i cant recommend it enough.
