# 33: Yann Martel "Life of Pi"  — 11 months ago

This book was just so amazing! It really did live up to my expectations.

Must Read!

# 32: Jane Austen "Pride and Prejudice"  — 11 months ago

The story should be well known, also due to the movies. I quite enjoyed the read, especially the a little antiquated language. Everyone should read this at least once.

# 31: Joanne K. Rowling "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows"  — 11 months ago

Well, how could it be different? Don’t want to spoil anything (hate spoilers myself), so let me just say: GREAT!!!
