“There is more treasure in books than in all the pirate’s loot on Treasure Island.” - Walt Disney.
“Reading a book is like re-writing it for yourself. You bring to a novel, anything you read, all your experience of the world. You bring your history and you read it in your own terms.” - Angela Carter
My top three books are:

Erika L. Sánchez is a journalist and writer of Mexican decent. The novel “I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter” was nominated finalist for the National Book Award for Young People's Literature. Erika portrays the perspective of a teenager who struggles with all the typical teen problems but also has to live up to the expectations of her parents who have grown up in another country.

This is a powerful story of Cuban woman. Garcia's writing won't fail to lock your focus into the book.
To kill A Mockingbird
To Kill a Mockingbird is that book which almost everyone has read. Whether they were forced to read it at school or out of their own interest, never the less this book doesn’t fail to impress you while also passing a moral message.
