10 Books That Made Me Want to Read


When I initially saw the prompt that inspired this post, it simply said "talk about the book that made you a reader." However, as I often do with prompts I find around the internet, I switched it up a bit for my own blog.

I've always been a reader, so there wasn't a single book that "made a reader." As a result, I wanted to talk about books that made me want to read. (A post will be published tomorrow will focus on books that made me a reader.)

Here are 10 books that made me want to read.

  1. Beowulf, Anonymous (Seamus Heany's translation)
  2. The Hero with a Thousand Faces, Joseph Campbell
  3. Istanbul, Bettany Hughes
  4. The Iliad, Homer
  5. The Odyssey, Homer
  6. The Wars of the Roses, Dan Jones
  7. The Middle Sea, John Julius Norwich
  8. The Hobbit, J.R.R. Tolkien
  9. The Lord of the Rings trilogy, J.R.R. Tolkien
  10. The Aeneid, Virgil
