My Favourite Books
Jo Usmar is a writer for
Cosmopolitan
and co-author of the
This Book Will
series(
系列
) of
lifestyle books. Here she picks her top reads.
Matilda
Roald Dahl
I once wrote a paper on the
influence of fairy tales on Roald Dahl’s writing and it gave me
a new appreciation for his strange and delightful words. Matilda’s battles with her cruel parents
and the bossy headmistress
,
Miss Trunchbull
,
are equally funny and frightening
,
but they’re
also aspirational.
After Dark
Haruki Murakami
It’s about two sisters
?/p>
Eri
,
a model who either won’t or can’t stop sleeping
,
and Mari, a
young student. In trying to connect to her sister, Mari starts changing her life and discovers a
world of diverse “night people?nbsp;who are hiding secrets.
Gone Girl
Gillian Fynn
There was a bit of me that didn’t want to love this when everyone else on the planet did,
but the horror story is brilliant. There’s tension and anxiety from the beginning as Nick and
Amy battle for your
trust. It’s a real whodunit and the frustration when you realise what’s going
on is horribly enjoyable.
The Stand
Stephen King
This is an excellent fantasy novel from one of the best storytellers around. After a serious
flu outbreak wipes out 99.4% of the
world’s population, a battle unfolds between good and evil
among those left. Randall Flagg is one of the scariest characters ever.
