Thanks @Darth_Kaders for the tag. #Fivebooks that influenced me:
Anne Frank: Very confronting to read about a girl my age who lived in my city
Country of Origin: novel about the Dutch in Indonesia
To kill a mockingbird: my first English book. It has stayed with me ever since
Satanic Verses: Magical realism meets Islam makes one of my favourites
History of the Rain: the last book that made me really cry
I tag @AceOnRoam, @batsy and @Simona
Cinfhen Great choices 🙌🏻I choose Anne Frank as well💔 7y
Simona LOL I was just thinking, while reading your post and stacking History of the Rain, that is good that I wasn't tagged, because I don't know how to answer. Well, now I have to think about this one and I will post tomorrow 👍 7y
BarbaraBB @Cinfhen I saw it! I think it had a big impact on many of us 😞 7y

BarbaraBB @Simona Good luck, it is really difficult to select only five! 7y
Ms_T Some wonderful titles there. I really must read 7y
The Diary of Anne Frank: The Revised Critical Edition
Libby1 I have The History of Rain but haven't read it yet. Maybe I should bump it up the list. 7y
History of the Rain: Longlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2014
BarbaraBB @Libby1 I remember it got very mixed reviews but I absolutely loved it 😍 7y
AceOnRoam Thanks @BarbaraBB for thinking of me, I'll have to think a bit on it and try to work out how to get all the book covers on the same picture! #LitsyProblemOfTheDay 7y
BarbaraBB @AceOnRoam You can use the app Pic Collage - just a tip 😀 7y
AceOnRoam Will do. Thanks heaps @BarbaraBB 7y
BarbaraBB @AceOnRoam I recently had the same 'problem' 😀. But this app with downloaded book covers works perfectly! Don't feel obligated to post, though!! 7y
AceOnRoam I'm already downloading it! 7y
batsy Such an interesting selection! The Satanic Verses was both enchanting and frustrating for me, but it was definitely an experience to read it. Thanks for the tag, will think on it. Only five! 😆 7y
