Feature & Follow Friday #19


Feature and Follow is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read. 

Today's question is:

Q: WHAT BOOK DO YOU THINK EVERYONE SHOULD READ? IF YOU COULD GIFT THE ENTIRE POPULATION WITH ONE BOOK?


My answer:

I keep telling people how they should read J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series because it is simply magical and truly extraordinary. 

But, the whole population? 
Honestly, I'm no expert at recommendations and I still have a long way to go with reading! 

But I think everyone should read The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini. These book are raw, uncut and speak volumes about humanity. They make you think, contemplate and feel many things at once. 

                                  The Kite Runner A Thousand Splendid Suns

What book would you want the whole population to read?
Follow us and we'll follow you back! 

2012 is coming to an end and we hope you've had a lovely year and the years to come are filled with happiness and peace and books of course! ♥ 

Happy reading! 

Sarika

    I read The Kite Runner in college and I absolutely loved it! It was so moving and I learn so much from it. <3

    I haven't read The Kite Runner, yet. Every time I consider it, I'll read one review that makes me question whether I'll like it. I have read the Harry Potter series and I agree that it is amazingly entertaining for all ages!

    I did chose Harry Potter for my answer this week. I don't think there is any book out there that everyone in the ENTIRE world would all love, but I though Harry Potter was the best bet. And it is totally amazing. :)

    Thanks for visiting my blog. I am now a new follower of your blog. I love the Harry Potter books and I am shocked if people tell me that they haven't read them yet. What are they waiting for? I also like Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns. Both of very moving. I'll be back to visit your blog often. Happy week-end.
