When I am not designing I also like to read and was happy to stumble upon what is called a “Blog-Parade” asking readers to send in a list of their 10 present or all-time favourite books.
So here is mine, a  mixture of German, English and French literature:

  1. Stieg Larsson: “Millenium”
  2. Jhumpa Lahiri: “The Namesake”
  3. Margaret Atwood: “The Handmaids Tale”
  4. Ann-Marie MacDonald: “Fall On Your Knees”
  5. Philippa Gregory: “The Other Boleyn Girl” (the book is much better than the film)
  6. Stefan Zweig: “Nirgendwo in Afrika”
  7. Rohinton Mistry: “A Fine Balance”
  8. Barbara Wood: “Rote Sonne, Schwarzes Land”
  9. Barbara Kingsolver: “The Poisonwood Bible”
  10. Diana Gabaldon: “Outlander” (the whole series)

The list could go on…

While this Blog parade was in German it would be nice to hear what people around here like to read. So feel free to to comment and spell out the list of your best reads.  : )
