Dracula
Bram Stoker
Every vampire story since stands in Stoker's shadow. The original is still the best.

Thinking, Fast and Slow
Daniel Kahneman
As a psychology student, this was required reading. As a human, it should be required for everyone.

The Midnight Library
Matt Haig
Made me cry. The message that the root life has its own beauty is something everyone needs to hear.

Frankenstein o el Prometeo moderno
Mary Shelley
More relevant now than ever. As we develop AI, the questions Shelley raised about creator responsibility are urgent.

Dracula
Bram Stoker
Historically significant but some sections drag. Van Helsing's speeches go on forever.

Moby Dick
Herman Melville
Skip nothing. Even the seemingly dull chapters have hidden gems if you pay attention.

Pride and Prejudice
Jane Austen
My comfort read. I return to it every year and always find something new to appreciate.

Jane Eyre
Charlotte Brontë
The childhood scenes at Lowood are heartbreaking. Bronte doesn't shy away from cruelty or injustice.

Brave New World
Aldous Huxley
The Savage's arc is heartbreaking. This book asks the essential question: is happiness worth the cost?
