Your list is quite impressive. You read Illiad and Martin G.R series A tip my hat in respect

I was gifted the Iliad by my dad in my junior secondary school days..I got engulfed in the world of Greek mythology from then on..I also went on to read the sequel which is the odyssey...as for Martins, that guy is hands down the most witty storyteller I’ve(personally)known..Tolkien pales in comparison truth be told..we’re patiently waiting for the book 6 to be released, don’t know what is taking Martins so damn long!

Ramon92:
So many novels I've read and they're more than just the best 5

The Alchemist.. Paolo Coelho
To kill a mockingbird
1984 by George Orwell
All novels by Dan Brown
House of cards series.. Michael Dobbs
Things fall apart.. Chinua Achebe
In cold blood.. Truman Capote
The Godfather trilogy

.. Reading at the moment, The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoyevsky

mario puzo's Godfather was just a single book. It was the films that were in three parts.

sinaj:

Abput a young man dat left Scotland for SA through d desert in search of diamonds in the wilderness. Lol.

The book can be likened to today's happening, Nigerians going to Europe through the desert.

HotIce90:

I have read it. But OP asked for just 5 novels. Do you know that some Freemason phrase used In lost symbols are wrong? Example, "Is there any help for the widows son". That's not the correct way of saying it.

Hi Chieni, I can't help but comment on the list of books you mentioned

I've read all four except Violence by Festus Iyayi. I should look for it but mehn, 'diary of a wimpy kid' holds me spellbound everytime the kids bring home the series from their school library. I recommend it for every child!

Sugar girl
I think there are more than one titled sugar girl novel. I read one about Ralia in primary school.

Oliver Twist, Secondary school.

Purple Hibiscus, Uni/Graduate.

Your collection is beautiful

awww. Thank you very much amicable, it's good to see your mention.
The sugar girl you mentioned that has Ralia as the main character is actually the book I also read. it was a popular book back then.

diary of a whimpy kid will really make you laugh till you forget your name ( Greg doing his own weird things)

you should read violence by festus iyayi, its really interesting.

Most likely the abridged version. I read that too andit was some years later I saw the unabridged.
I had to skip it as I already knew what the novel entailed.

There is something about these unabridged versions-the language is richer and you get to know the world of the characters in vivid detail.
But then for abridged classics, the whole aim is to endear kids to fantasyland and if you still find pleasure in reading books, then they must have served their purpose.
