BBC 100 Books

Of these, I think my favorite adult book is The Great Gatsby. I fell in love with that book at the age of 13. Nick Carroway was one of my major literary crushes. I had dreams of living in New York and eating at the Princeton club. It's a large part of the reason I live in New York and went to an Ivy League college. However, I do not belong to the Harvard Club of New York because it costs like $3000 a year if you live in Manhattan, and that's just silly.
It's hard to have a favorite children's book as they are all so dear, but I think I'll pick Anne of Green Gables. Gilbert Blythe was another big crush, and I reread those books about once a year. Anne gave me courage to be a smart girl in a small town, at an age when I really needed that.
And then there's HP. So there you go, three books that changed my life.
