Matt Haig
Perfect book club pick. Gave us so much to discuss about regret, choices, and what makes a good life.
Bram Stoker
Read it by candlelight if you can. The mood demands it. A classic that earns its reputation.
Charlotte Brontë
Still one of the best love stories ever written. The dialogue between Jane and Rochester crackles with energy.
Charlotte Brontë
The fire imagery throughout is masterful. Everything burns - passion, rage, and eventually Thornfield itself.
Mary Shelley
A cautionary tale about playing God. Two hundred years later and we still haven't learned the lesson.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Read it in one sitting. It's one of those rare books that improves on re-reading.
Herman Melville
A book that rewards patience. The payoff in the final chapters is worth every whale anatomy lesson.
George R. R. Martin
Sam's journey to Oldtown is charming. Arya's Braavos chapters are mysterious. Not Martin's best, but still engaging.
Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra
The second part is actually better than the first - more self-aware and emotionally complex.
