Which three books would you recommend?
The AlchemistPaulo Coelho
A great read for anyone who either can't sit still, or struggles with their own ambition. This is a great story with some equally great reminders of what's important in life.
The Gold CoastNelson DeMille
If you loved The Godfather and The Great Gatsby, then you'll like this story about old Long Island. I think it was one of the first thick looking novels I read as a kid and couldn't put down.
The Little PrinceAntoine de Saint-Exupéry
Just read it.
Whose reading list are you most curious about?
You didn't ask this. But I love biographies and autobiographies. When we learn about history it's so easy to label people as one thing. But nobody is one thing. Biographies are great reminders of that.
