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—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" 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.
