http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waiting_for _Godot was amazing but not as you know it.Its pretty random, totally nonsensical with a character called Lucky who has a monologue, it is long, rambling, and does not have any apparent end but when you look deeper into the text at its inner workings you can extract some pretty insightful things like life and death to point out just one.Beckett wrote it after his experiences of war time Europe and how it affected his view on life and other aspects of his being.
Another book I read was http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regeneratio n_(novel), I read it this year for my leaving cert and i found it a really good read, the character dynamics and how through the course of the story they change.I liked it a lot and i recommend it.
For me the Harry Potter books are quite important, as a person with severe dyslexia it takes me far longer to read a book than the average person dose.Being constantly scrutinized and chastised by teachers who saw me as another thick student , I saw books and reading as foes in my early life.
But when a decent learning support teacher told me to read the Harry Potter books and take it a page a day, it motivated me into reading more and more books.So the Harry Potter books are a milestone in my education and my life.
