What books did you read in IB English, and which were your favorites?

In my first year we read Persepolis (I think that's how you spell it), Catcher in the Rye, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, Hamlet, and Things Fall Apart. That year my favorite was either Hamlet or Catcher. And this year we're reading Oedipus the King (AKA Oedipus Rex), The Stranger, The Metamorphosis, Othello, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead, The Importance of Being Earnest, and Fences. I really enjoyed the comedy of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, and I'm a big fan of Albert Camus' philosophy and his view on absurdism and existentialism so I quiet enjoyed The Stranger as well even if I found it a bit of a boring read. 

 

Edit: I should say that I didn't actually read Othello or The Metamorphosis. I just pretended that I did. And we haven't read The Importance of Being Earnest or Fences yet.

Thank. I will list your recommendations on a waiting list. For my part, I want to advise "The subconscious mind can do anything" John Kehoe.

I like Kehoe, and indeed I like these books. I'm currently reading "The monk who sold his Ferrari". The topic of self-development became interesting to me a few years ago. This book is an excellent example of such literature. Much is devoted to the importance of spiritual development and enlightenment. And how important it seeks not only monetary but also spiritual wealth. Recently, I even wrote a work on this subject using proofreading services UK. And I realized that this topic is even more popular than I thought, and more and more people are striving for spiritual wealth.

In general, I do not have any favorite books on this topic, but for example "The subconscious mind can do anything" is very good. However, I would still recommend throwing this nonsense and doing real business! For example, betting is a very cool thing for real people who are not afraid and act! But there are still ways, even here, to make the task a little easier. For this there is betway with its cool application where there is absolutely everything to become a real betting lover https://footballbettingguide.co.ke/betting-apps/betway-app.html!
