LITTLE WOMEN, by Louisa May Alcott. Not just for girls. Alcott is second to none as a writer of characters, and in telling the story of the March sisters and Laurie, she becomes the closest thing we have to an American Dickens.
A WRINKLE IN TIME, by Madeleine L’Engle. Awkward, brainy Meg Murry must travel to the ends of the universe to rescue her father, in a visionary fusion of science, mysticism and cosmic horror leavened by L’Engle’s gentle Episcopalianism.
For children to flourish, they need to grow up reading and being read to. The following is a list of some ESSENTIAL books for any beloved children in your life. And they’re brilliant enough that they can be enjoyed equally well by adults.
THE MASTER & MARGARITA, by Mikhail Bulgakov. The only novel on this list to feature Stalin, Pontius Pilate, Satan disguised as a professor, a carnival of the dead, and a demon-cat named Behemoth. The Rolling Stones read this book and wrote “Sympathy for the Devil.”
STRANGE TALES FROM A CHINESE STUDIO and THE BOY WHO DREW CATS. In these Chinese and Japanese fairy-tale collections, tigers wear kimonos, illustrated cats come alive, and the stones of a dozen plums rise from the floor to sing and dance.
THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO, by Alexander Dumas. When Edmond Dantes acquires a fortune, he changes his name and plots revenge on the men who imprisoned him. Quite simply the greatest adventure novel ever written, and a massive influence on the comic-book genre.
People tend to think of classics as being “boring,” but we wouldn’t keep reading them for hundreds of years if we didn’t love them. Let me introduce you to some FUN classics:

If you had this lamp in your first apartment/house, your knee probably hurts when it's about to rain.
“Things I have learned from the movies" Having watched hundreds of movies, they have taught me many things that I would like to share with you today: 1. If being chased through town, you can usually take cover in a passing St Patrick's Day parade - at any time of the year. 2.…
So I bought my parents a new Brother printer because their old one broke and my 72 year-old dad called customer support for help setting it up, instead of me. They had him run a command that showed him networking traffic and tried to tell him, "Your network is compromised, buy…
I feed 80 street dogs every day but the last stop is my favorite because I get to see little Angelina Jolie. She’s a very very old girl who has lived on the streets her whole life but she is very special (1/6) 🧵
Ken Allen, the orangutan from San Diego Zoo, escaped his enclosure three times in the 1980s. His apparent goals were visiting other animals, throwing rocks at a despised orangutan rival, and taking photos with tourists. He never acted aggressively towards anyone during his…
@brujacontumbao i love this thread. the convergence of ND and white fragility/rage is something i’ve been noticing a lot more in my life too. it’s not an either/or. it’s that these two things play on each other, and yt ppl tend to not be forced to recognize social cues to survive, like poc do.

The Eyre Affair is the first. I'm actually excited for and a bit jealous of anyone in this thread who's going to get to read these books for the first time. @jasperfforde
@SketchesbyBoze I’ve never met anyone else who has read the Goremenghast trilogy! Most people have never even heard of it. I have the copies that I had in high school and it’s on my re-reading bucket list.
@SketchesbyBoze Gotta add Dracula, which is (and I cannot stress this enough) a blast.
A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS, by Lemony Snicket. A masterpiece of contemporary fantasy, Snicket’s unique blend of whimsy, Gothic horror and clever wordplay birthed a generation of darkly funny, verbally precocious readers.
A JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH and TWENTY THOUSAND LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA, by Jules Verne. Some of the most thrilling adventure stories ever written, satisfying a child’s fascination with things that live in the sea or beneath the earth.
THE PRINCESS AND THE GOBLIN, by George MacDonald. A girl named Irene must battle a race of sinister goblins with soft feet who are threatening to abduct her and force her into marriage. The influence of MacDonald’s Goblins can be seen in The Hobbit.
FIVE CHILDREN AND IT and THE PHOENIX AND THE CARPET, by Edith Nesbit. A series of books about four children who have misadventures with a Psammead and a phoenix. The way Edith portrays kids was a major influence on Narnia and Harry Potter.
THE ARABIAN NIGHTS, preferably in a kid-friendly version. These shockingly strange stories of magic and adventure fired the minds of authors like H. P. Lovecraft and Charles Dickens in their youths. One of my favorite story collections ever.
AS I CROSSED A BRIDGE OF DREAMS, by Sarashina. An eleventh-century memoir written by a Japanese lady-in-waiting, recounting her travels across the island and the dreams she had on the way. Dream and reality mingle until it’s hard to say which is which.
STRANGE TALES FROM A CHINESE STUDIO and THE BOY WHO DREW CATS. In these Chinese and Japanese fairy-tale collections, tigers wear kimonos, illustrated cats come alive, and the stones of a dozen plums rise from the floor to sing and dance.
SIR GAWAIN AND THE GREEN KNIGHT. The most fun you can have in the fourteenth century, this story about a knight who must travel across country to face his own death at the hands of a green man is full of rain, horror and jollity.
MOBY-DICK, by Herman Melville. It’s possible to enjoy this as a straightforward story about the hunt for a murderous whale, but half the fun lies in Melville’s bizarre, postmodern digressions. If there’s such a thing as the Great American Novel, it’s this.
THE MAN WHO WAS THURSDAY: A NIGHTMARE, by G. K. Chesterton. A satire, a spy thriller, an existential fable, there’s no other book like it. Chesterton paints London with all the vividness of a hallucination, and the ending makes me cry every time.
JANE EYRE, by Charlotte Brontë. This is the defining example of the “women in mysterious houses discovering secrets” genre, and Rochester is the ultimate Byronic hero. Daphne DuMaurier’s REBECCA owes this book an immense debt.
CATCH-22, by Joseph Heller. Yossarian, a U. S. Army captain, is the only sane person in the 256th Squadron. A darkly satirical novel that plays with chronology, this is not only the finest novel about World War II but possibly the funniest novel ever written—and the saddest.
THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY, by Oscar Wilde. Bohemian dandy Dorian makes a Faustian bargain—he will remain forever young while his portrait grows older and more wicked. Decadent and surreal, Wilde’s only novel has the air of a dream that slowly becomes a nightmare.
NORTHANGER ABBEY, by Jane Austen. Catherine Morland, a young woman whose head has been turned by reading too many Gothic novels, begins to suspect that she might be living in one. Jane’s funniest, and strangest, book.
