Do you agree with this list by And of the top 20? Would you throw out some, or include other titles?

Look what I shared: 100 (Fiction) Books to Read in a Lifetime - AbeBooks.com @MIUI| www.abebooks.com/.../index.shtml

    Hi Nexus

    its a pretty good list...and there are books I would add...

    the velveteen rabbit - as a story of diagnosis acceptance

    ... further books to add....

    Oscar Wilde: The Nightingale and the Rose (the fickleness of folk)

    black Roses - Simon Armitage - about the dangers of not fitting in. A piece of prose about a goth and her partner killed for being different - true story. Quote below:

    ”

    Have we said the wrong word?
    Have we made the wrong turn?
    Have we strayed from the path?
    Have we stepped on their patch?

    Do they find offence
    at the studs in my lips,
    or the rings in my ear?
    Are they morally outraged by what we wear?

    We are kindly creatures, peaceful souls,
    but something of our life aggravates theirs,
    something in their lives despises ours.

    The difference between us is what they can't stand.”

    Was Black Roses written by the boyfriend of the girl who was murdered, Sophie Lancaster?
